Beadact Electric Bead Spinner, Battery-Powered Clay Bead Spinner with 2 Beading Needles for Jewelry Making, Seed Bead Spinner for Bracelets Necklace Making, Craft Gift for Girls

This was supposed to be a Christmas gift for my 10 yo daughter but a few weeks before, she got an order for 20 bracelets (pictured), so I gave it to her early to help her get them done. It works great and makes it a lot easier to string heishi beads but just know there are 2 caveats (but the spinner is still totally worth it)… First, there is a bit of a learning curve if figuring out how and where to position the beading hook amid the spinning beads. But it’s not hard to figure out, my 10 yr old got it just as fast as I did. Second, as others have said, you need a good amount of beads in the spinner for it to work really well. The less beads in the bowl, the longer it will take to hook them. So if you’re only planning on making one bracelet out of a certain color combo of beads, you’ll have a lot of the mix left over when finished, because if you only load in enough beads for one bracelet, it will taken forever to hook them, if at all. Luckily I have one kiddo who loves sorting objects into groups, so when my daughter was ready to switch to a new combo, her little sister took the leftover mix and separated all the colors back out so we could store them back in the grid boxes. But honestly, if you make a lot of bracelets, this spinner is a requirement.

This is a very good product. It works very well as far as using clay beads when making bracelets. However the needles broke very easy. I hope the company can make one more stronger so it will last longer.

Got this as a gift for my 11 year old. If you read the instructions and follow along it works great. There is a slight learning curve for needle placement but she picked it up in an hour. Now the entire house has bracelets. It has a battery or usb option to power. Wish this came bundled with the clay beads too.

Bead needle arrived broken, which makes us unable to use it and I’ll have to buy new needles. Cue tears from a disappointed daughter that was excited to make a bracelet.

We make a lot of seed bead bracelets and this thing is a game changer. We can make solid and mixed color bracelets in less than 2 min each. My 9 year old daughter is easily able to use it too.
