Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

It is well worth paying the extra money to get a better machine/experience.
It runs smoothly, producing uniform stitches and hasn't been too picky with yarn types.
The only complaint I have is the instruction booklet is nearly useless; thank goodness for YouTube videos and the experience of others.
The seller I purchased through had the best price, albeit a longer delivery time, but I was willing to wait 2 weeks to save $50+, although it did arrive 4 days earlier than expected.
My best advice before buying a circular knitting machine is to know what you want to make with it and watch a lot of YouTube videos so you know the differences between manufacturers/models and what nuances to expect for each brand/model.

Reviewed in Spain on December 22, 2023
Met wat youtube filmpjes kan je direct aan de slag. heel gebruiksvriendelijk. Goed voor kleine, leuke projectjes. Hij komt met reservenaalden én verankering aan de tafel, wat heel handig is. Blij met mijn aankoop.
Zuerst hatte ich eine billigere Strickmühle (die allerdings direkt kaputt ging), die Addi Express Strickmaschine hingegen ist kein Spielzeug, sondern ein hochwertiges Werkzeug. Sie wird mit Beinen geliefert, die angeschraubt werden müssen und am Tisch mit Feststellhaken befestigt werden. Somit ruckelt das Gerät beim Kurbeln nicht. Der Rundenzähler ist auch sehr praktisch und billigere Maschinen haben soetwas nicht. Auch kommt die Maschine mit Ersatzteilen, falls mal eine der Plastiknadeln abbricht, kann man diese austauschen und man kann auch welche nachbestellen. Damit ist das also kein Wegwerfprodukt, sondern nachhaltig konzipiert. Mit dieser Strickmaschine kann man sowohl Röhren, als auch Flächen herstellen. Die Garne sollten mind. die Nadelstärke 4 haben, sonst wirkt der Stoff zu löchrig bzw. durchsichtig, was aber für sommerliche Stricksachen vielleicht auch nutzbar wäre.
Das Design finde ich schön, man erkennt die Deutschlandfarben und die Qualität ist ebenfalls wie man es von einer deutschen Firma erwartet. Ich habe sie für rund 90€ erworben und ich finde den Preis angemessen.
Auch für Kinder und Jugendliche wäre das Produkt eine schöne Geschenkidee, da sie schnell die ersten Erfolgserlebnisse haben können.
Es gibt auch einige Bücher von Addi mit Anleitungen, ansonsten findet man viele Ideen und Anleitungen auf YouTube.
