Review on 🃏 Efficient Hand Cranked Card Shuffler for Two Decks by Adam Browning

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great.: Card Shuffler

This works well with various board games that involve shuffling decks of cards. I like it best when there are too many to mix by hand, but also when there are too few. I feel the mechanism prevents damage and card bending that can happen with constant manual shuffling. Anyway, I've never been very good at mixing. I originally ordered it for games like Dominion or Orcs, Orcs, Orcs, which often get mixed up in deck building. This takes longer than manual shuffling since you have to load and unload the deck each time, so I decided against the Hobbit version, which had eight decks of Event and Adventure cards. It just took too long. However, for Terraforming Mars it was nice to take a four inch (apparently) stack of cards to shuffle them and just run them through the shuffler and pull them out as the tray filled. Otherwise I couldn't shuffle so many cards. It's a little inconvenient to use the grip on the left, like a right-hander, and I'd like to turn it the opposite way, so the cards come out the wrong side for me. Maybe left handed would be more comfortable but I can't tell. It still works great, I just keep getting it wrong.
