Large Yarn Ball Winder, Metal Fiber/Wool/String Ball Winder Hand Operated Capacity 10-Ounce

I just received my yarn winder in the mail today. Opened it up and found the cone was damaged (see photo). I did go ahead and test it out. I'm not crazy about it. I think it winds the yarn too tight. Also, the yarn guide is impossible to tighten fully, so it moves around and I have to keep repositioning it. No instructions and if you need to send it back, good luck. It has to be shipped to Canada at your expense (cheapest was $33 from Kentucky to Alberta), even if defective. I'll update if the company works with me to get me a new cone that isn't damaged. If I had it to do again, I'd get a different style of winder or the actual Stanwood.

Love mine. So much better than a plastic one.

A much sturdier piece of kit than the red and white plastic, cheaper model which went back immediately. This one does exactly what it says it will do. Takes a bit of getting to know how to get the best result from it but was soon happily winding EVERY ball of wool in my stash into neat cakes that pull from the centre. Wound DK, aran and chunky and it easily winds 100 gms of chunky with room to spare. An excellent buy.
