This product is easy to use and does a great job making yarn cakes.it winds yarn very fast with very little effort. It makes knitting and crochet enjoyable as I do not have to stop to untangle yarn. Definately worth buying. I only wish that larger skiens could be used on it.

I was really excited about this but it didn’t work. I even went online to see if I could fix it myself but the way its built, I can’t.

It does the job and easy to use. I wish there was a tension setting. It does not hold to the table well but like I said it gets the job done.

I wind a lot of yarn and never have too many yarn winders. This is a very user friendly style and a nice value in comparison to a certain name brand.This winder preformed well on different weight wools. It had a variable position arm that was very handy to have. I don’t think I’ve had one exactly like that and it really helped in small spaces. It is plastic but a thicker cast plastic than some others. The clamp is more secure than the typical wing lip and it spins smoothly. This would be great for anyone with a smaller space or who needs a low tech winder.

This winder is... okay. It does not produce even cakes, though this may be user error. Also, don't forget that you need a swift as well if you're winding from hanks.

I really like this. At the time of review it was $15 and I think well worth it. I’ve wound over 30 skeins into nice cakes. It’s advertised for up to 4 oz, I used it on slightly over 7 oz but I wouldn’t use it for more than 6-7 oz if you are able get a 10oz instead for larger cake winding. The plastic squeaks, plastic on handle does rub against the metal and grinds down a little but honestly it’s not a big amount. I’m happy with my purchase overall. Instructions, needles and stitch markers are folded up in the dust bag.Update: I ordered this may 2024, and this update is from Dec 2024. It has broken but I got around 80 cakes done plus little bits here and there. For the price, it did its job for a lot longer than I expected. Good for a starter kit!

I didn't realize how much this would change the game of crochet for me. I love this thing. It makes yarn so much easier to work with and store. The cakes are super easy to stack and I love not having to worry about my yarn collapsing and tangling. Also for some projects I split the strands and this makes it easier to store long strands without them tangling.

not recommend. It tangled inside and cannot form a nice cake shape ball. Result is not as advertised.

You need to hold the yarn with your hand to keep tension in order for it to wind properly. Having done that, I find it works great. I rolled a bunch of yarn for a tufting project and the cakes it makes make the yarn go smoothly into my tufting gun instead of constantly having strange tight bits like the skeins have when you first get them at the store. My only issue is the odd clamp you use to put it on a desk. Why would it ever need to be able to move at an odd angle when it needs to be on a flat surface to clamp on tight? I found that it has slipped out of position a couple of times while I was tightening it onto a surface, which is annoying. But it's a minor inconvenience. This thing still does its job and does it quickly.
