The Nurge adjustable embroidery seat stand is made from hard beechwood, fine sanded and polished for a super smooth natural wood finish. They are the crafter’s choice for quality.

If you’re looking for a sound needlework frame, look no further. This frame works beautifully for my larger needlepoint canvases, holding the canvas firmly. The spindles are well-smoothed hardwood; the angled brackets are veneer over high-density pressboard, which assures stability. I bought the two sets of longer spindles, as well, as the size that ships with this unit are fairly small for the projects I work.

My favorite part of this is I can used both hands and go quicker. It also doesn’t wrinkle your cloth something terrible.I have been doing much smaller pieces. I hate to admit it. I wish they made a mini. I drilled new holes and rest my cross bars to hold small cloth. It’s a bit harder to get your hand under if using one hand. Otherwise. This was a great purchase. I even purchased the longer bars.

GREAT FOR: Hoops and Needlepoint framesI am not sure how I have lived this long without this stand! It keeps my "grip hand" from cramping by taking away the burden. The best part is that you do not need to work at a table, the base is so wide that I can sit in a chair and set my legs on top of the base to hold it down! Very easy and intuitive to adjust.The other version does not have a good grip for a needlepoint frame. I use hoops and frames, and it is excellent for both! I would give this more stars if I could, I am extremely happy with this stand!!

The frame is much heavier than expected. I use it on my lap sitting in my recliner and it gets a bit weighty after a while. The pressed wood is the problem; if it were made with solid wood or, even better, aluminum, it would be much lighter and more maneuverable.The locks work great; once they are set, they stay put. Not the fault of the frame but of my project, the space between the dowel and the first row of stitches is very tight and difficult to finish. Anyone have a solution?The price: since I could find no alternative, I bit the bullet and paid what I feel is way too much for this frame. Plus I had to order the longer dowels for my next project and again felt I was being gouged. Really, the cost of materials can't be that much for three dowels and a couple pieces of pressed wood.Would I buy it again? Probably because it does allow me to use both hands while working. Am I happy with the price? No. If it were less expensive and lighter, I would be tempted to buy more than one so I could switch between projects. Alas, ain't gonna happen.

Je suis vraiment enchantée de ce produit, surtout après avoir dû retourner un article de même utilité qui, à mes yeux, est pure escroquerie. Ici, la qualité du bois est irréprochable, parfaitement lissé. Ultra facile à monter : un seule vis à manipuler. Le bras extensible permet de travailler sur des tables de hauteurs diverses et le poids de l'ensemble bien calculé pour permettre d'éviter tout risque de bascule sans pour autant être trop lourd. Un fabriquant qui, manifestement, connaît les exigences de la broderie.

I was looking for a stand to help with hand fatigue. This stand is really nice and works well. I would have given 5 stars, however, I have a thicker Nurge wooden hoop that will not fit in the clamp which was disappointing. I thought a Nurge stand wood accept all the hoops they manufacture. A nice stand for the price.

ich war auf der Suche nach einem Knüpftisch, anders als in den 1970iger Jahren, findet man kaum noch etwas geeignetes, so bin ich nach langem Suchen auf dieses "Gestell" gestoßen. Es ist noch nicht im Gebrauch, deshalb kann ich nur zur Verarbeitung etwas sagen und die ist außerordentlich sauber. Da steht kein Hölzchen ab, da ist alles sauber gearbeitet. Vielleicht etwas teuer, aber bei Handarbeitsmaterial zahlt man immer etwas mehr, das liegt in der Natur der Sache, warum also auch nicht hier.

This thing seems to defy physics. It's very sturdy, stays in the position you set, and delivers much more than simply using both hands: the thread does not get tangled nearly as much. As I'm getting older, my eyesight isn't as good, and so I can position this right in front of my face so I can see it and work quickly with ease. This is a game changer. I don't like buying frivolous things, if it wasn't such a miracle for me I'd be sending it back. You can see in my pictures that this is a larger project with some weight to it, and I can maneuver around the extra fabric so much easier now.*THIS DOES NOT FIT ALL NURGE HOOPS. I have a 1" thick No. 4 hoop and it does NOT fit! Use a thinner hoop.

Well built, and easy to put together. Very easy to adjust. The small part that holds the hoop is a tough resin/plastic that looks like wood (probably a more sturdy option than wood). There are more beautiful stands, but this one works well and will be reliable. Excellent value for the money.I have been doing more and more embroidery, and needed something that would give my back and crimped neck a rest.

After reading some reviews that this doesn’t hold all Nurge hoops and doesn’t stay tight, I was hesitant to order this floor stand. I’ve been very happy with my Nurge hoops, so I’m glad I decided to see for myself if this product is of the same quality. I needed to give my hand a rest from holding my hoop, and this has helped immensely. The stand is heavy enough to stay put with a nice, wide base, but it’s not so heavy that I can’t easily move it aside when I’m ready to get up from my stitching chair. With the number of joints it has to adjust, I found it easy to find the configuration that fits perfectly with my chair and my body. I wondered how it would be to flip to the back side of my project to bury and trim my threads. It is no problem at all. I don’t find it necessary to make the very top adjustment extra tight. My hoop stays in place, while I’m still able to easily flip it up for those purposes. I think this is an excellent stand, especially for the price difference compared with some of the other popular floor stands.
