I bought one of these for myself (just for fun) but the two wheels were quickly taken over by my 6 and 9 year old kids. There is only one set of four motions required to make all the brackets (the pattern is set by the initial ordering of the threads, and the wheels are color-coded to help you set up 4 different, very cute patterns: hearts, flowers, diamonds, and a four color barber-pole stripe) With a little tutoring even my 6-year old was able to produce bracelets as long as I was there to provide the occasional reminder. The bracelets take a while to produce so the child you purchase this for should have a good attention span, but the end product is very nice. I'm buying one for my little girl's friend. I hope she likes it as well as my kids do. Now I just need to get another for me!
Absolutely amazing! December 8, 2007

This wheel is incredible. The first night my daughter got the wheel, she had a new friendship bracelet surrounded in hearts within hours. It seems like magic how something so simple as moving a string from the top to the bottom, turning, and doing it again can produce beautifully stiched and intricately detailed friendship bracelets. My nine-year old told me she thought it was relaxing, and I agreed so much that I came back and bought another set for myself and several of my co-workers! It's fun and amazing all at the same time, for young kids through grown-up kids.

My 15 year old daughter and her friends had fun making and selling these bracelets. We even made up a pattern of our own. it's fun working with all the different color combintions.

I purchased this for my 8 yr old. I love it so much that she hasn't had a chance to use it yet because I can't put it down. Unlike some other reviewers, I didn't think that the instructions were hard to understand. The wheels make 4 different bracelet patterns but the procedure is the same for all 4 patterns. All that differs is where you put the colors on the wheel to start. The bracelets are made by repeating just a couple of simple steps over and over again. The hardest part is that you move two strings, turn the wheel, move two strings, etc and if you look away from the wheel and then look back it can be hard to tell where you left off. My daughter may have trouble with it because it does take some concentration and you have to remember to mark where you left off before you take a break. The wheels are made of durable foam so they are very lightweight. I would recommend this for ages 8 and above.
