Review on 🧶 SEAAN 40-Needle Knitting Machine: Craft, Crochet, Sock, Hat, Scarf Maker with Knitting & Crochet Supplies by Kristen Reid

I have several knitting machines (including 2 Addis and a large Centro) with different needle counts. I bought this one as it only had 40 needles, but the very low price of less than $25 made me hesitate. It arrived at the time stated by Revane and was well packaged. I saved all the packaging and figured that for the low price I would probably return it. The first few times I tried it, it just didn't work, but since the yarn can be the problem with Addi too, I tried a different yarn and to my great surprise, it works really well! I had already knitted a long scarf and the stitches were perfectly formed with no skipped stitches. Here's what I learned about this machine: 1) cast on VERY slowly and see if the needles catch the yarn initially; 2) The machine is lightweight plastic and I'm sure it doesn't take much for the needles to turn the wheel, so try a different yarn if the wheel gets difficult to turn; 3) has no counter; 4) This is NOT Addy - if the needles break they are not interchangeable but they WORK. With the ability to make a smaller round tube and pay 1/10th the cost of my Addi King size, I'm glad I tried this machine.
