Rated 5 out of 5 — 5 verified reviews

The most popular spinning wheel in the world.  Why is it so popular? The separate drive band and bobbin brake adjustment is easy to understand and simple to operate. The bobbins are quick and easy to change. Scotch tension and 4 speed flyer allow for a wide variety of yarn to be spun. Horizontal adjustment of the maiden bar allows perfect alignment with the 4 speed whorl.

Great Product

"I purchased the unfinished version of the wheel and was very impressed with the quality of the machining and the overall product. Sanding and applying finish did take a little longer than I expected, but the wheel came out beautifully. Another minor inconvenience was the lack of clarity on how long to make the brake strand - the dimension was not printed for the length, but a quick search online revealed the answer. Would recommend!"

Nice wheel

"It's a very nice wheel, but as a beginner, the e-spinner 3 was easier to learn on because you don't need to focus on your pedaling and can focus 100% on your drafting."

Lisa D. (5/5)

Perfect for beginner or expert spinners.

"I love this spinning wheel! I thought a lot about which wheel would be best for me and I am confident that the ashford traditional double Drive is the right choice. I love that it is versatile and has the best ratios. I wanted to be able to spin lace- fingering weight yarns and this wheel works wonderfully for that. It is beautiful and operates smoothly. This will will be in our family for years to come. This was my first wheel and is perfect for learning as well as for advance to users."

Not ready yet

"I can't tell you yet how my new wheel spins since I'm still working on the finishing and she's still in pieces. However, I can tell you that I greatly appreciated that she was packed in the most efficient method with materials that can be recycled. . . no oversized packaging. Everything was included to make assembly as easy as possible and the instructions are actually clear. I've never had a problem with anything I've ordered from the Woolery. I'll be glad to send another review, with pictures, once I get her working and she tells me her name. (My other Ashford Traditional. . . sd. . . is Alice)"
