SENTRO Knitting Machine 22 Needle, Smart Knitting Loom Machine  | Portable, Easy to Operate, Multifunctional and Multi-Mode, with Gift Box

The best part of the sentro 22 is that it works perfectly. The downsides are the lack of a row counter and the inability to clamp it down due to the shape of it's rounded bottom. I was able to velcro it down and so far, been able to count rows manually but eventually if I decide to make something precise I will need to purchase an electronic counter for it. Had to return an addi which was manufactured defective with catch points that would split yarns but my sentro does not split my yarns and I am loving it. Also, it came early even though Amazon says it has a late arrival so... don't know what's going on there.

Very easy to use, very durable. Clear instructions. Would make a great gift for a kid or an adult. An infinite number of projects can be made on these!!!

I Love these knitting machines! This is my second one because I wanted to try the smaller size. And for the first try it worked great! But now it’s broken out of the blue. Nothing happened to it. Nothing snapped. But, I cannot complete a full rotation on the tube setting. It jerks to a stop and the crank moves but the needles do not. And it makes a really loud grinding sound. I’ve cleaned the machine, tried to reset it. But it still keeps grinding to a stop. It’s a shame because I was counting on this little guy for making my Christmas presents this year!

only had for a short time but so far works good

the machine works great! been using it for about a week now. the downside is after 4-5 rows, it acts like the gears are grinding and i have to fight with the machine to it get it to turn. I have checked that the yarn tension was not the issue, it isn't. The grinding noise just started this week. If you can get over this issue, it is a great tool for making small stuffed animals.

Good for starting/learning but just a few times using, it gets stuck and making crazy noise already. Returned mine

So I bought the 22 pin sentro. While I’m not impressed it is still functional. The machine has some spots where the needles likely need sanded down as it’s catching the yarn and shredding it a little bit. It also randomly catches and slows down production which is annoying but I don’t want to go through the return process to get a new one that runs smoother which this one does not do at all. Also for some reason my machine specifically only wants to work with like the thinnest yarn ever. Like the yarn for baby blankets and such.

This machine word Awsome for premie hats .. Will be able to get a lot made for the hospitals and women’s shelters .. Highly recommend for first time knitting machine user ..

I receded my machine today as stated I was disappointed that when I looked at the machine there was no row counter which I thought was in the discription and also there was no sewing needles, and it was left out in the rain.

I purchased this item as it specifically said it had a row counterIt does notSo I am very disappointed with this product

Love this little knitting machine, works well, however it is cheap plastic and the bunny ears get in the way of fixing dropped stitches. So I removed them, problem fixed! Hate the plastic, but haven't found a metal one. So it does the job. Perfect for toy making, socks, and other small projects. If you want to make bigger things you need the next size up (48pin).

Not worth the price. Bought it for my daughter for Christmas and the handle instantly started slipping. I’m really bummed out that it didn’t work for us, we tried using it anyways, and when it did knit we were able to make a couple things. But I had to deal with the constant slipping. I opened it up, to find that the slipping was caused by poor design and low quality plastic gears. So it didn’t even last the whole project. And we’ve only used it a few times since Christmas. Now there’s no way to use it. And it seems like a manufacturing problem. If you want a 22 pin machine, go with the Addie, don’t waste your time or money with this. I can see how useful a 22 pin machine can be and it’s worth saving up for a good one.

No row counter with this item even though it’s advertised.
