A great table loom. Easy to assemble, easy to use. Instructions for assembly and use are clear. Perfect for middle sized projects that are bigger than a scarf and smaller than an adult blanket. Works great for scarves and runners. The heddle included is good for worsted and DK yarns. Warning: you may develop an addiction to yarn.

So let me say I love my loom after it was set up. It took about 45 minutes to put together by hand. There are some pros and cons. Pro's: easy to use, just watch some YouTube videos. I was able to make a scarf within 4 hours the first day. The seller was awesome they responded asap. Cons: Took about 45 minutes to put together which is fine but was not stable. Needed power tool to screw all the way. Second, The pamphlet with instructions show ALL screws, not just for 24" loom which was confusing. After reading through directions several times I realize that they also mentioned screws for a larger loom and I did not need them. Overall for a first time weaver I love it.

The assembly took longer than I anticipated, but once this loom is put together, it's so easy to get started weaving. Being able to direct warp on this loom is great, and as a beginner, I've really appreciated the simplicity and speed with which I can get a project started. I've made several beautiful wraps on this loom already (and one massively long scarf, oops) and have plans for several more. Further, this loom is, in my opinion, just the right size for a beginner. You can make a nice wrap or table runner, without being overwhelmed in needing to warp more than 24" in width.

This is my first loom. Received it yesterday. Assembly was pretty straight forward and easy. After watching videos tutorials while waiting for it i warped it and was weaving (messily) right away. Structurally it is stable. The only thing i would recommend is a bottom bar that allows the loom to be set in lap. I bought the 24" and it rest on my recliner arms perfect but the back sits on legs so low the heddle is harder to get into the down shed. Not a complaint just a thought.would definitely recommend to anybody looking to get one. How to weave instructions included were clear and concise and they even threw in a catalog and their magazine which had more great info. Oh and the rubber bands that hold cardboard sticks together are perfect size for holding the backboard up to heddle while warping.

I've have had my loom a little over a month now and done 4 projects so far. My dad put it together for me. I couldn't do it. Came with excellent step by step written and picture insructions. Took about 1+1/2 hrs to put together. I also got the stand which I highly recommend if you can swing the purchase. Makes all the difference when warping and weaving. This is a very nice, well made loom. Keep in mind it comes unfinished (stand too) so that's a job for to do when you get it. My dad refinished it for me before he put it together. It does take up some space (I got the 24") so you need to plan for that too especially if you get the stand. I am very happy though with my purchase and new found hobby.

When my interest in weaving was first piqued - in a small loom store in New Orleans - I decided to look for a weaving class when I returned home. With nothing nearby, I went online and watched countless YouTube videos for ideas. I built a simple loom using picture frame parts from a hobby store and bought a variety of yarns of different textures. For several months, I "played" and experimented, always returning to the internet to find new ideas and help with problems I encountered. I eventually met a weaver at an art gallery who offered a few helpful tips, too. Throughout it all, I spent a fair amount of time looking online at - and dreamed about buying - "a real loom." After researching and several months of experimenting on my frame loom, I finally decided to go for it. I had chose an Ashford loom and haven't had a moment of regret since it arrived. I wasn't disappointed by the need to wax the pieces before assembly, as I knew it was going to be part of getting my new loom up and running. Instead, I made it an enjoyable task, my way of bonding, if you will, with my loom. I sat out on our deck and listened to good music while I applied the wax. I had few problems assembling the loom, and finally was ready to start! I will admit that warping the loom the first time was a bit of a challenge, and took me quite a while as I had to keep checking the instructions. But the nice thing is that between the booklet that came with the loom and the video online by Ashford, it's do-able! And each time I warp my loom now, I get a little faster and more confident. I don't know how complicated I will get with my weaving, but I know there is a whole lot that you can do with a rigid heddle loom, and couldn't be happier with mine!
