Knitting Machine Adapter, Quick Knit Replaceable Crochet Machine Adapter with Hex Bit Power Screwdriver, Compatible with 22/40/48 Knitting Machines Universal Accessories, Beginners DIY Hats, Socks

I have had an Addi for almost two years, so this was purchased to be used until I could repair my Addi King Express. So,....in comparing the to the Addi,my opinion is that there is a difference in quality, as this isn't as high of quality as my Addi. BUT, this Miaoke works just fine! Both machines require some getting used to. It's a matter of finding the correct speed and tension for each type of yarn used. With both machines the faster you spin, the more likely the chances are for dropped or jammed stitches, and yarn split. Rougher yarns dont work as well as softer yarns. In my opinion, this Miaoke is a great value for a knitting machine. I feel this a great choice for a beginner.

Fun to use, is good quality to me, only time it messes up is if you mess up, once you learn to use it, it functions flawlessly. Good value to me if you like making stuff

I liked the product. Worked well for what I needed at the time. The only complaint is that it drops stitches if you use to heavey or light of yarn and the machines plastic frame cracked around the screws. Now it is out of kilter and is dropping stitches and knotting the yarn.

I bought this device because I wanted to increase my production, and the Addi - which by all accounts is a far superior machine - was out of stock everywhere, and on back order at the one place I was able to find. Once I figured out how to use the machine, it worked well, at first. The suction cups adhered easily to the stone countertop where I was using it, but the frame would contort and rock like a ship in a storm when I was turning the handle. And I was turning manually, not with an electric screwdriver or drill. In spite of the noise and the lack of a steady platform, it did produce decent hats once I got the hang of it. I was using Red Heart Super Saver medium (4). Then I changed yarn to the Caron One Pound medium (4), and it started dropping stitches like crazy. I tried changing the tension, slowing down, speeding up, manually managing the tension, adjusting the angle of the yarn in the tensioner, you name it. The only way I could make a full row without dropping stitches was to manually push the yarn to the bottom of its peg as it came around to the yarn guide and started coming up for the next stitch. And if I have to that, why am I using a knitting machine? So I went back to the Red Heart Super Saver medium (4) and tried again. This time, in spite of doing it the exact same way that worked before, I got the same results as with with Caron - dropped stitches all over the place, with no rhyme or reason as to where they would appear. Continuing to knit only moved the dropped stitches to a different area on the row. I can only conclude that I’ve reached the end of this product’s useful life...and I received it January 7th. Of course the return period expired on February 6th, 12 days before it stopped working effectively. A useful life of 6 weeks before wear and tear makes the product unusable is not a good value for a product that costs $90.99. I don’t know if the actual brand name device (Sentro) is of better quality than the Miaoke, but I can say that this specific device is not worth the money, unless you’re keen to spend $90 every 6 weeks to be able to knit on a machine. Now I’m just waiting on my Addi, hoping it’s more in line with what I expect.

Yeah, I was skeptical too, but after I got it, all my doubt left me. I will say, like all knitting machines, not every yarn will work with every machine, so if you're partial to a particular yarn, I'd ask someone to test it for you before committing to this machine. The stitches are smooth and even. The ONE TIME I had a boo-boo on a stitch was my fault for messing with it. I used 'I Love This Yarn', which is my go to basic yarn, and the results were perfect. I then tried it with old fashioned Red Heart and the results were terrible. This machine prefers a smoother yarn. The Red Heart was just too coarse to slide through the tensioner. If you are used to the Addi, you can still hand tension the yarn, but as I am new to this machine, I used the provided tension wand, and got great results. The suction cups are not great, but I just clamped the legs to the table and it never moved. The written instructions are lackluster, but I just followed one of a thousand YouTube videos on how to use this machine (it operates just like the Addi) that the written instructions didn't matter. If you're on the fence about a knitting machine, this one is at a good price (compared to the Addi), and you get the same quality.

The machine has a very hard time with thicker yarn. Sometimes the 4 weight yarn hangs up. It drops stitches. My counter stopped working And mine after about two weeks (using everyday) it completely started locking up. To the point where it won't turn anymore. So I don't recommend it if you are wanting to use it a lot.

L9ve it and saves my wrist

This is a game changer if you have carpal tunnel or arthritis. My only suggestion is DO NOT use a standard household drill to use it! Take it from someone who did and found out the hard way that you will destroy the hand wheel. It is so powerful that it will literally drive the hand wheel into the machine itself and jam. I thought I had destroyed my Sentro, but was able to pry the hand wheel loose with a flathead screwdriver. Use only a small, craft drill that uses a C type charger.

Loved it and easy to use

Seriously, just buy this thing ASAP. I have a Loops & Threads knitting machine, from almost a decade ago, and I barely use it because it takes SO LONG and is SO TIRING on the shoulder/elbow/wrist/fingers. I wish i had bought an adapter like this years ago! As soon as I got it, I stuck it on the machine, grabbed the drill, and did up a whole ball of pound of love yarn just for the fun of it. I can not imagine how LONG it would have taken me to do by hand-cranking - You will get so SO MANY hats or headbands or whatever done with this adapter.

Très bonne qualité livré très rapidement merci
