useful tool but not perfect

This is a handy device but I found that a lot of pins go into the base of the device and there is a tiny hole for them to come out which is really awkward. I wish the pins didn't fall into the base or if there was a big door through which the blush sticks could be taken out. Refilling is also a little tricky as many of the pens fall to the side as you fill them up. With that in mind, it helps me a lot when I'm "handed out" pins when I'm working on big projects.

Pros
  • imported
Cons
  • damaged

Makes attachment easier!

I am very happy with my purchase. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. My only problem is that when the pins break the Miss the stem and land between the stem and the base, good luck getting it out!I had to use a tool to get them out.(I used a magnet I dotted onto a thin rod.) There is a big hole on the bottom for this purchase but it's not very functional you have to tilt the machine forward to get the extra pins out but this will make all the pins fall down the barrel it would be easier

Pros
  • Includes an 8" x 11" x 6" needle dispenser
Cons
  • Newer model could have been chosen

I wanted this to be my favorite sewing accessory.

I bought this a month ago and finally found it to sew. I bought an extra pack of needles (in addition to the ones I already had) to actually use this Pintastic. I was so excited to get the batteries and get this thing working. However, I've never seen it work?! Doesn't spin? Upon closer inspection, it turns out that something is not there to attach the drum to the rotating mechanism?! Mine isn't plugged in, but apparently it should be. In theory, this is an incredibly nifty little pin…

Pros
  • Compatible with June Tailor Glass Pins and other brands and sizes. Additional items sold separately
Cons
  • Discontinued
