Cons Review
We bought this same one at Walmart for $20 Christmas 2010. . We bought this same one at Walmart for $20, Christmas 2010. It works, but the gear starts to slip badly after using it for just a short time (only got about 3/4 of the way done with a scarf before the gear started slipping). It can still be used, but has an annoying noise as it slips (drove me nuts!). My husband took it apart and lubed it and that helped a tiny bit. It's easy to use, but it's not well made and certainly will not last for years. The gears are plastic and that itself tells you it will not last forever. It's certainly worth the $20 Walmart price ($62.00 price listed here is outrageous!), as I was able to make several scarves with it, but I certainly wouldn't spend any more on this item.
So pleased to be knitting on our own! . My 6 year old daughter asked me to teach her how to knit so she could make clothes for her dolls...but I don't know how. I took a chance when I saw this product in a catalog; it had no reviews then so I was just hoping it would work well. She got it for Christmas and has had a blast with it! By the end of Christmas morning, she had already knitted two different pairs of leg warmers which she now loves showing off as her own creation to her dance class. She's also made a full-sized adult scarf and is working on a poncho for herself. She is beyond thrilled that she can do this on her own and actually has a product to be proud of at the end of it all.I did not have any of the issues the other reviewer had. It's hard plastic, so I don't expect it to last forever, but we have put it through some work and it's still holding up. You must be sure to keep the thread easily moving through the machine; it puts a lot of strain when it's trying to pull it out of the skein itself. Also, **be sure to read ALL the way through to the end of the directions about marking the starting point with a permanent marker before beginning (that was written last and didn't make any sense...it should be front and center because THAT matters!) My daughter needs a little help loading it up and tying the ends off when her product is complete, but I enjoy something that we can work on together and it doesn't bother me that she needs my help for 2 minutes or less on certain stages.Bottom line: we're having a blast with it! (I think everyone in the family is getting a knitted scarf for Christmas next year.) :)
