Summary: Wow!
Comment: My 9 year old daughter got this as a birthday gift. I packed it to keep her busy on a 5 hour car trip. The directions were very easy to follow.(I am not a crafty person and the fact that I was able to pull it off was amazing!) She and I spent much of the car ride each making a bracelet. I had mine(flower pattern) done and she was wearing it for our trip. It goes very quickly once you get the motion down. She got hers(multicolored) almost finished by time we reached our arrival. (She opted for some reading time too.) Great craft. Makes a quality looking product. Highly recommended I'm buying more for gifts.

Summary: Love it, Love It, LOVE IT!
Comment: This project is so cool. When you first look at it you would never believe that it would make a bracelet, but it does! I have done a little research and people have said that this product is based off of a old Japanese loom-type-thing. I think it is amazing and my grandmother couldn't believe it either. The only band thing is the embroidery floss. It does not come in many colors, it has a knot tying together the two ends that is very hard to get undone, and in the middle of my first project a piece broke in my hand so I had to start all over again. Luckily I had already ordered embroidery floss that should be here soon.

Summary: Takes a loonnng time to make a bracelet
Comment: I gave this to my 6 year old for Christmas. The directions are good and easy to follow, and once finished, the bracelets are nice. However, the process of making a friendship bracelet with the wheel is tedious and takes a long time. Once you've selected the pattern and colors, the process is not creative - you just repeat the same action over and over again. My daughter usually has a good attention span for arts and crafts, but not this one.

Summary: We needed two more of these!!!!
Comment: My niece got one of these for her Christmas present (6 years old) By the end of January she and her Mom had made up all the materials and were excited to get another two wheels for her 7th birthday on Jan 29th. Now all the girls can make friendship bracelets at the same time... great product, replenish with ordinary embroidery thread! Excellent craft idea for neatness and a space saver! Plus creates gift giving opportunities for all ages!

Summary: Great bracelet making kit
Comment: We have had this Friendship Wheel kit for over a year and my 3 daughters are still interested in making bracelets with it. We have used it so much that we've bought additional floss to make more bracelets. This is time consuming and has worked better for my older 2 who are 10 and 9. It does take sticking with it to get a bracelet made. They've enjoyed it and I definitely think it's a good purchase when over a year later they're still using it.
