Perfect wheel!

"Absolutely love my new EEW 6. 1 Spinning wheel. It nice and portable. The bobbins are a great size. It's a fun like wheel. Ive already spun 4 braids on it. I love taking it outside to spin on."

Love my new toy!

"The machine is the perfect way to learn to spin. It is lightweight, easy to transport, and works well. I love that the size is compact so it doesn’t take up too much room in my craft room. While I’ve considered a traditional wheel, this meets my needs and has worked well consistently."

Great for plying

"This wheel is very lightweight and the tensioning system is easy to use. The bobbins are a nice large size and I have primarily using this to ply singles that I spin on my smaller e-wheel. I only wish there was a hook to hang my strand on when I get up from the machine to take a break."

Love this little wheel!!!!

"This is my first E Spinner. I am very traditional and have 2 traditional spinning wheels. I wanted to try the Electric Eel because it is small, portable and seemed like fun. I am not disappointed. It is so much fun to sit at my table with the electric wheel on top and spin while I am watching tv in the evening. It is very addictive because I can leave it set up and come back to it when I only have a few minutes of time. Highly recommend. Learning curve is minimal."

Melanie M. (5/5)

A great transition

"I like this e-spinner because it was an easy transition from the drop spindles, the size, the price range, and the extras that came with this package. I am also glad this e-spinner gives you options to use electricity or battery. Depending on how much fiber you spin, any additional parts that is needed for this e-spinner are pretty reasonable."

Rue R. (5/5)

Great for beginner spinners

"This was very easy to put together! I’m super thankful for all the online video recourses! I’m already spinning after just a couple hours playing with it! I highly recommend this eSpinner if you are brand new and just learning!!"

I bought this because I’m

"I bought this because I’m growing cotton and want to knit something. A drop spindle was out of the question. There is a learning curve, but the you tube videos from the manufacturer (dreaming robots) is very clear and helpful. Having the extra wool is a great plus. Every day is easier."
