This is a great value and was the perfect size for me. It is a lovely spindle and it comes in a lovely case (that was a big bonus). I would have loved to have kept it but the shaft was bowed, so it wasnât usable for spinning a good balanced yarn.

I have been spinning while going through cataract surgery and thought this looked nice. It is lighter than my other spindles, and does not spin for as long. It I longer than my other spindles, so I am able to spin more. It does not spin as stable as my other spindles, but I got used to resting the tip while plying.But the really wonderful part is the petals give me notches all the way around so no matter where I stop I can wind it and rehook anywhere. I was amazed with how much time this saves. My other spindles have one notch, which can mean a bit of fiddling around to properly wind and hook again. For that reason alone, I recommend this spindle. It was also a great price, looks nice, and is holding up well.I am spinning merino combed top, very fine (finished 3-ply is aboutn12-14 wpi), and chain-plying.

I have broke now 4 different drop spindles carrying them around every where. I love this has a a case to protect me from breaking it. It spins with such easy and glides so nice. Best spindle I have ever used. â¤ď¸ Highly recommended for beginners and experts.

It's a beautiful spinner, I give it 5 stars because it works great, I'm just terrible at using it, not the sellers fault. Everything is sturdy and looks amazing, if you need a drop spindle I recommend this one

Beautiful high/low drop spindle. I like the versatility of being able to spin top or bottom, and the notch is helpful for beginner spinners.

Iâm new to spinning and this drop spindle is just amazing. I love with the rosewood one how each petal acts as itâs own notch. While trying to learn, having that level of versatility is a game changer.I agree with another person that it is a bit heavier than I originally thought it would be, but overall it spins very well. I mostly use it as a top-down spindle so I canât speak much to it as a bottom-up, but I really enjoy how consistent the spin is. Once you get it going itâll keep it up for awhile, which is great for me as someone who likes to draft while the spindle is spinning below me. Iâd definitely recommend to any other beginner spinners or anyone looking for a spindle with a bit of versatility

A top whorl spindle did arrive but the wooden case it was supposed to come in didnât arrive. But the company quickly fixed the mistake to my full satisfaction! The spindle is well balanced and easy to use even for a novice!
