Ashford Kiwi 3 Spinning Wheel

The newest evolution of the popular Kiwi Spinning Wheel. Now with folding treadles for easy storage and transport. The Ashford Kiwi 3 is an excellent beginner wheel due to its easy learning ratios, double treadle and affordable price. The double treadle and ball bearings allow for easy treadling and "hands-free” start. Treadles are hinged to allow a comfortable heel-toe action. The stretchy drive cord does not require any adjustment as you change from one ratio to another and always maintains the correct tension. The scotch tension allows easy control of the drafting process. The central flyer is convenient for right and left-handed spinners. The Ashford Kiwi 3 spinning wheel is easy and quick to assemble with the Allen key supplied and the robust construction makes this an ideal wheel for individuals, schools and clubs.

Perfect beginner wheel

"My first wheel! What a gem. Instructions are clear but as someone who is more visual (and brand new to spinning), I definitely needed some YouTube videos to help me along the way. From there though I've been practicing everyday and could not be happier. Great little beginner wheel and can't wait to see where I go from here"

Practically Perfect in Every Way :)

"I love this wheel so much <3 This is my first spinning wheel, which I picked out for its small size, ability to fold up to be even smaller and more transportable, and easy two treadle start. I was able to try the Kiwi 3 out at a lesson at my local yarn store, and it was so easy to learn on that I was able to start spinning within 30 minutes! Once it arrived at my house, there was some assembly required, but no more difficult than the average IKEA furniture assembly. It feels very sturdy, and I'm glad I went with the finished version--it's so smooth and feels like it will stay that way for a long time. It's really nice having the built in lazy Kate, and I've had a great time spinning up several skeins already. Such a nice bonus that it comes with handy instructions for spinning and using the different ratios and also a free bag of wool top to practice on! Highly recommend for anyone starting out with spinning on a wheel in a tight space."

Ashford Kiwi 3

"The assembly took me a couple of hours, and I had to ask hubby for assistance a couple of times. Once it was put together, I have not been able to stop spinning. This is my first spinning wheel, and I don't have anyway to compare it. However, I love it!"

I love my new Kiwi

"I love my new Kiwi 3, it’s so much more portable than my old wheel, and easy to set up. The packeting was excellent and it arrived in perfect condition very quickly. The padded bag that I purchased is very well padded and allows me to carry it easily. I love how the treadles fold up. I had a lot of recommendations about this wheel and they led me right!"

I selected the Kiwi 3

"I selected the Kiwi 3 for its size, portability, and positive reviews from others who purchased and used the Kiwi 3. It was easy to assemble with clear instructions. I am still getting used to adjusting the tension; it will come with more practice. The wheel's fold up treadles are a space saver."

Wonderful product and service.

"I love my Kiwi. Its my very first spinning wheel and I chose this one because of its compact space-saving size. It was easy to put together and easy to work. I'm still learning but I highly recommend. It shipped fairly quickly and I received personal updates from real people. I was really impressed by that!"

Put it together by myself

"Put it together by myself with the help of your u tube video. Sturdy and easy to use for beginner. Some difficulty getting the wheel around unless you go fast as it stalls on the top . Will take practice I’m sure. Portable and with a small footprint for practical use."
