This is a lovely sturdy machine very smooth well made easy to use saving up for the next size now

Excellent product, smooth operation think these are over priced and aren't really value for money

This is a premium quality knitting machine, it may cost a lot more money than the cheaper options out there but it is definitely worth it if you can afford the extra expense, it knitts well and smoothly, there our plenty of videos on YouTube to help you get started and finally i would definitely recommend it as a good buy.

I purchased this 22 needle Addi circular knitting machine from Amazon EU which was the cheapest but took a little longer to arrive as it came directly from Germany (where Addi knitting machines are made). I didn’t pay anything extra like duty taxes, just what I’d paid when purchased. It arrived in perfect condition and it works perfectly too. Mine has a manual counter which I am happy with, though it does clunk as it goes round (the counter has a bit that sticks out inside that makes the counter count as the wheel turns round each time. I’ve made socks on mine using DK yarn easily, but it can makes lots of other things tube shaped and you can knit flat panels too. It comes with instructions and spare needles and a red tapestry needle for taking the knitted piece off the machine when binding off. Watch some YouTube videos to see how it’s used, it’s really quick and easy though I’d recommend taking your time so you don’t get dropped stitches (watching and not holding your yarn too tight helps a lot I’ve found). You can’t make hats on it, you don’t have enough needles, you need the bigger 46 needle Addi Kingsize for that, I’ve recently purchased one from Amazon too, I’m very happy with both machines as they’re relaxing to use and save my wrists from arthritis aches and pains I get from hand knitting.

Just the job

This machine is great for making small projects or for using in conjunction with other machines. It is a bit tough to get it cranking for the first few rows but after talking to other users this is quite normal and goes on to make great things. Looking forward to seeing what else I can make 😊

Yes, I know most people rave about the Addi but I'm personally not a fan. I've tried to get on with them but imo they are simply nowhere near as good as their much cheaper rival, the Sentro. I'm experienced with circular knitting machines, but the Addi, although granted well-made (hence the 2 stars for that), constantly misses stitches at the beginning of every project, whereas the Sentro does not. Simple as that. So I can't recommend it.
