Review on 🧵 Simplicity SideWinder: The Ultimate Portable Bobbin Winder by Nicole Mcleod

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't expect a "wow " product.

I am disappointed. I watched the video (as always) and this was not the product I received. I was expecting the side wrap to appear on the video. The one I got seems cheap and when I try to use it my spool vibrates and spins erratically. The coil is also wound unevenly, the thread is practically not wound on the lower part. It's all at the top! I adjusted the tension, changed the threading method, and tried different coils and coils. This thing just wasn't worth the $25 I spent. I wasn't expecting WOW quality but I was expecting something useful. Since the rubbish has already been taken away, there is no box, so I don't even know if I can return it without packaging. Insult for injury? The postman who delivered the package INSTALLED it over my fence. The fence was unlocked and easy to open. They were just rude and lazy and decided to throw it over the fence leaving the package in sight. I have security cameras and it's on tape. Talk about disrespect! I know this is not the seller's fault but something to consider when choosing shipping options. I didn't want to pay $75 to fix the winch on my car, I think I should have. :/

Pros
  • When using the portable function, the machine requires (2) AA batteries, the machine will automatically turn off when the spool is full.
Cons
  • old
