The BeadsmithRick's Beading Loom, Two-Warp Loom, 13.5 x 3.75 x 4.5 inches, Wooden, Illustrated Instructions Included, Easy Assembly, Use to Create Necklace and Bracelet Designs

Love it! I've been struggling with traditional looms for years. I wish I bought this a long time ago. Would've saved some heartache. With traditional looms, the 1st 2 warp strings would always lose the tightness. No matter how I what I did. Make sure your beads are right up to the ends. It's fussy and frustrating to do, otherwise your bracelet will be too loose. i noticed that you can pull on the last weft to snug it up, and roll the beads to space them out instead of fussing with a last row.

I was a bit disappointed to find that the instruction book shown in the video is not, in fact, what I got. I was looking forward to some proper instructions and some sample designs. What I wound up with was a single piece of paper (double sided) with unclear assembly directions and instructions for stringing the loom.

This loom is not for beginners. I loved the idea of not having to weave in so many ends, but unfortunately the difficulty in warping the loom just put all the pain at the front end instead. If the thin bars weren't bending under tension or popping out, then the pegs securing the ends of the threads were. Maybe this loom is just what some people are looking for, and the quality of the wood is very nice, but it just wasn't a joy to use. Theoretically, I loved it. Practically, it just didn't do the trick.

The loom is very well made and sturdy-not at all hard to set up-however, this is not for the beginning beader.You should have previous working experience with looms and how to use one before you buy or use this equipment because it depends heavily on your skill level to be able to produce a well-crafted piece.Once it is set up (and i will admit that even for an experienced beader, it can be challenging) it's very easy to work with.One bit of business though is with the rubber grommets that come with the loom (they're used to keep the rods in place)-I found that in order to keep them on the ends of the rods I had to use a small alligator clip to keep them from falling off-in fact, I took the grommet off and just used the clip to keep the rods in place. They're really not useful for the loom.I also bought the extra pack of rods, pegs and grommets just to have those on hand, but it's not necessary.All in all I enjoy working with this loom and it was worth the money spent. It arrived promptly and in good condition.

I have loomed for years and this loom is impossible to use. The frame strands don’t stay tight. Spend more time adjusting and fixing it then actually completing project. I would not recommend this loom to anyone wanting to easily complete a project.

I love this design, it is so well thought out and well-detailed production. Tons of thank yous! I can do a lot with this loom!

I thought this would be the best one, but the bars where you wrap the string to form your work area have no way of staying in place they just slide back and forth.

I have both of the sizes. They are easy to thread and make beading mostly relaxing. That is after I fumble around with the first row. That is me not the loom.
