I’ve never had one of these before and so when I started to look I wasn’t sure which to get. I’m so pleased with this one!! Easy to assemble and works great. I work with thicker yarn so I have to split my bundles sometimes but other than that works like a charm. Worth the money

The yarn caker is easy to use. It is a great way to keep all the leftover yarn from projects, nice and neat!

I really loved this up until it froze and broke on Red Heart yarn.

The media could not be loaded. A great ball winder at a good price for beginners to start with. As you evolve, there are other smoother and larger cake winders, but this is a solid win. Easy to set up and use.

I bought this because I could not find my previous ball winders. I love KnitPicks and have found the company's yarns and tools to be top-rate. It isn't completely necessary to have a ball winder, but it makes balling skeined yarn much easier. I used this one in combination with a very old umbrella swift which had belonged to a friend's mom or grandmother (thank you, Marie!). It was a bit challenging, figuring out how to use these two in combination, but I did figure it out. Pros: the winder works very smoothly. The handle resists moving in a counter-clockwise motion. You can only turn it to the right. The instructions for setting up the winder are on the box. The pieces are very sturdy, even the plastic ones. Cons: Once assembled, the winder does not fit back in the box it came in for storage, because the metal yarn guide arm will not fold back down. AND you must fold the yarn guide arm up and into place to use the winder. This is a minor annoyance, since I will need to find another box and cut up the box it came in to keep the information in one place. One tip for new users: after winding the yarn, I roll up the paper/cardboard tag with the yarn/fiber info, etc., and slide it into the middle of the new yarn cake as I slip it off the spindle. You could also tape the info card to itself around the spindle, but the card with the info for these particular skeins was smaller than the necessary diameter.

This thing is great! I love being able to convert skeins of yarn into those cake things so I can use them on that dangly yarn holder. (Sorry for the lack of lingo.)

She works well. But after several months of use, I've had 2 teeth on the gear that have snapped clean off from inside. It became extremely loud and jumps while I wind yarn. More petite yarns tend to slip off and get thrown off the winder while it's spinning. Otherwise, it's easy to use and still makes great yarn cakes, but I wish it held up better.
