Zero complaints; product is excellent and superior to all the alternatives.
This is not a paid review. I am a genuine customer who ordered and tried out four different brands of (mechanical, not electrical) yarn ball winders, and this one was far superior to any of them.Let me begin by addressing a common reasoning for the bad reviews I have seen on this product. They seem to have rated it poorly due to tangles. Any yarn winder can end up creating tangles if you don’t help guide the yarn, provide a bit of tension, and go at a reasonable pace when winding. You should watch your resulting work as you go and monitor it to make sure it is right.Now, onto the review:Stability: this aspect was ranked number one in my list of factors to consider when choosing a yarn ball winder. All of the other winders I have tried had issues with either the stability of the winder base/crank or the standing yarn guides that feed the working end of yarn. On most of them, the standing metal yarn guide kept shaking dangerously (and making a ton of noise.) This machine stabilizes the standing metal yarn guide with a sturdy plate UNDER the main product base. I experienced no problems with shaking, sliding, or instability.Capacity: this product can handle and produce super large yarn balls (I think I worked almost an entire pound of yarn onto one ball), bigger than any other brand I have tried. Most other winders on the market (at least those for home use) seem to have a fraction of this product’s capacity.Compatibility: works with a range of desk ledge heights, and all sorts of yarn. I had no issues using this product even with the chunkiest yarn I own.Ease of use: super easy to set-up, dismantle, and store. Works right every time with minimal hassle.Noise: this product was less noisy compared to others.Durability: I have used the product for over a year now, and I believe it will probably last me for a decade at least.Please note: some of the winders with metal gears ended up producing METAL SHAVINGS literally all over the place. Avoid those, for sure.Usage tip: go slow when using it, especially at first. Continuously monitor the thread/yarn for tangles. If you end up with a tangled part, immediately stop the winding/cranking, and carefully reverse the direction of rotation as you untangle the yarn by hand. This takes a fair bit of attention and patience. Tangles don’t happen often unless you are trying to wind the ball super fast.

Effortless and Perfect Operation, Easy Assembly (really), One Caveat….
This is as close to a perfect product I have ever used. Truly. Most of it is solid as a rock. Once assembled it works absolutely perfectly. No kidding. In all the years I have been working with yarn and other fibers I have never had a large ball winder that worked as well as this one does. The caveat? I paid for the most expensive model because it was to be made entirely of stainless steel. Despite the seller stating “it is made of stainless steel, not nylon” right in the listing, I opened the box to discover the gears, the backbone of any yarn winder, were made of nylon. The paperwork in the box states that nylon is used to make the device nearly silent. It is incredibly quiet, marvelously quiet in fact. I love that. However, I will be using this nearly daily. How long can I expect the nylon gears to be functional? I have written to the seller in hopes that they will provide the answer and perhaps some spare gears if and when needed. Depending on the quality of the materials chosen the ‘nylon’ gears might last many years or 6 months. I’ll update this review with the answer when it is provided.Please do note that the assembly really isn’t hard. Maybe because I work with electronics and I’m use to small things but really…. Look at the pictures both in the listing, from other owners and in the box, locate and manipulate a couple of fairly tiny screws (some come pre-installed on the unit) with the included perfectly fitted mini screwdriver (they send spare screws if you lose or drop them), slip long yarn guide metal arms into plates, place or replace and tighten screws and you are good to go. Still struggling? Look at the videos some owners have made or the seller has some. Fussing with those screws will reward you with the best yarn winder you have ever enjoyed using.

Awesome
I got this today and I have to admit it’s awesome. I did have trouble with assembly but that’s probably my fault. I got this for all my yarn, mostly use Caron Jumbo. The blue is Big Twist yarn and the multi is Caron Jumbo in Zinnia. The blue worked up great but the Caron Jumbo one went only so far before it hit the other bobbin. Not to much to just wind around myself. The yarn did fall off the one bobbin but it was easy to get back on without losing the yarn cone. Not noisy, easy to use, and I’m happy with this purchase. My only issue is a table to use it on lolEdit on 9/22/2023After using this on more than 50 skeins of yarn I can definitely say I do not regret buying this. The only issue I’ve had to deal with was sometimes the yarn would slip down and get tangled in the gears. Maybe 1 every 10 skeins it would happen. Easy to fix just a pain. I just finished my last skein today and the space I’ve saved is awesome. If ur not sure on if ya need this, let me tell u that u do! It’s perfect for Caron Jumbo Print and even smaller yarn like Lion Brand Summer Nights which is super fine yarn. Definitely worth the money!!

Per trovare il tutorial di montaggio è necessario andare sul sito del venditore e registrarsi per poter accedere … dopo aver pagato l’ oggetto anche non proprio poco … trovo molto fastidioso dover registrarsi per poter avere le istruzioni di montaggio che tra le altre cose non sono nemmeno in Italiano ma un video dal titolo : Yarn Winder (Large Capacity) Setup Tutorial … peccato perchè l’ oggetto mi sembra valido … preciso che il mio giudizio di utilizzo è di solo due giorni

Fonctionne très bien

hele fijn winder, bollen worden steviger dan mijn kleine winder, en er kan veel meer wol op een cake, tot wel 300 gram in 1x, enigste minpunt vindt ik dat hij alleen aan een tafel tot ongeveer 4 cm past,

This is my first yarn winder and I was very happy with the purchase. The written instructions weren’t great, but their video installation and usage guide on their website was super helpful. A picture of the final assembled product on the front of the instructions would be useful. The quality of the materials is excellent, and they include a mini screwdriver for assembling. Works perfectly once put together and the yarn balls are nice and tight. So convenient when crocheting!
