This yarn winder works well. Very happy with it.

This swift is very easy to set up and use.

The style of this yarn swift is classic- it fits well onto the edges of surfaces of various depths, and it's easy to understand and use. It suffers from poor materials and weak build.If you don't wind a ton of yarn and just need something inexpensive to work with a couple times a month, this should be a great fit.However, mine broke after using it for less than a year, and I wouldn't say I was a particularly heavy user. The issue seems to me to be a combo of the fragility of the wood used (it bent/warped after about 6 months of moderate* use) and the weakness of the hemp connectors (which snapped randomly in month 11 in the middle of trying to wind up some woolly worsted yarn).Again, it may work really well for some folks' needs. If you wind a lot, however, and/or you work with 'sticky' woolly yarns or heavier gauges, maybe look for a different option.*I used it maybe an average of once per week, usually for fingering weight or sport weight yarns.

Bad Quality. Knob does not stay in place . Too late to get a refund:

Why weren’t there any directions for assembling this product?
