This little wheel works a lot better than I thought it would. I've been taking classes at a pottery league for a few years now, using much larger and more powerful wheels. I was worried this one would wobble or not be able to support more than a 1lb of clay. I can easily throw 3lb pieces using this and its great for trimming larger pieces. Would definitely recommend for novice potters that aren't ready to invest in a larger wheel.
Got this for my mom on her Bday and she absolutely loves it. It works great and is very quiet. We use it indoors. It would be nice if it were taller or had more adjustment in the legs but it’s not a big deal. We got the orange one and it has a cool ‘50s industrial look to it.
Great starter! My son really likes it. He will graduate from college this year becoming an art teacher and was impressed for his first personal wheel. Runs smooth sturdy and easy clean up.
I was worried this wheel was not going to be able to handle a decent amount of clay with speed, but it’s literally perfect. Aside from not having pegs, which is not a big deal, this wheel is amazing. Quiet, fast and made really well.
Originally I had an issue with this product, although it is overall a wonderful machine, but the company did a wonderful job making it better! I recommend them to anyone.
