so does the loom itself brake really easily or do you think it is fine for me to use?

My daughter has been using it. She is 13. It has been fine. No problems at all!

I made several things on mine and it didn't break, but then I didn't try to take it apart either. I'm fairly new to the rainbow loom, but from what I've seen so far some patterns call for the center row of pins to be offset from the two outside rows, and some patterns call for them all to be parallel to each other. My guess is that this loom broke when people tried to take the center row off to move it up so the rows were all even.

Just be careful - we had two different looms. This one broke into pieces - the other we have had for a month - got it 10 days before, and my step-son is still using it.

It actually snaps apart so you can shorten it but the pieces that come off break easily. My daughter snapped it in half.

We have one that is great. My kids use it all the time with no problem! The second one we ordered wasn't made right from the factory. One of the pegs was missing like the plastic just hadn't been molded correctly.

We did not use it because it's not what what I thought I was buying. But it does look cheap. I won't trust it. That why I'm sending it back.

I don't think so. It's pretty thin and easy to break. I used it to weave a chair bottom and I really needed a stronger thread.

With , but , before you buy think about what you are using it for. Mine has light items in it and it is collapsing! I am looking for something sturdier. It's good for yarn and other very very light things but nothing heavier than that.

not really a problem, just don't try and man handle it...I just apply low or moderate force and it works just fine.

yes - but u need the hook to remove the loom from its bases. Cause if u don't have the hook u might accidently break the loom.. i hope this helps u

I am sorry to say that it would not fit. It is to wide and it would barely fit lengthwise. SO this item would not work for your loom. But it works great for rubber bands. I hope this helps.

I have my sewing machine and serger sitting on it and sew with no problems. It works great for me. Because it is slim it fits well in my room but it is not the best if you want it to cut large items on. For my machine use and cutting small items it is perfect.

You can't prevent fraying of the ends. At least I did not have success. It is on of the big downers I experienced. Once the ends are frayed, then the end clips and the pull stops are impossible to use.

I think it is fragile because the teeth in the clip hold on to your clothing, so when you try to take it off it seems to break. Maybe we pull too hard? I did not like them because of my clothing having little rips in the cloth and breaking apart.

In my opinion yes. Others may disagree with me but that is my opinion. Please don't waste your money on this. A rainbow loom is worth your money.

No, it is pretty stable. It is not flimsy at all. I have the clip attached to my emergency brake handle ( I drive and automatic so I don't use the brake) and it bends to what I want to bend ( not that easy to bend which is good) and it stays put. The cable is pretty long. Does it shake a little, yes but not distracting at all. For the most part it just sits there where you placed it.

Whilst I like my floor stand, which I bought for cross stitching, I find it can be a tad unsteady at times. Therefore, I feel that the floor stand would be too flimsy to hold a knitting loom steady while you worked.

Well, yes. But, some "users" have a problem with the end of the string - the aglet - not being long enough to feed through the beads. If hands are clumsy, it is difficult to feed it through and catch it on the other side before you drop it.

to be honest it's not easy to terminate,i rather go with something else,but it's easy to pull because of double outside layer.i used it for outside.

I purchased this because it looked more "safe" than others, as I was teaching my grand-daughters to quilt and sew. I also find it difficult to use at times. It is hard to keep the lever depressed while cutting. It is not impossible, but seems to take a little more thought and effort. I do like it for the safety aspects of the blade being covered and also there's a "lock" of sorts on it. So, basically, I let the little ones use it and I use my Old Faithful one! :)

The clip is very soft tension and I think I would not recommend for this... For something that isn't going to be beaten regularly...yes. lol
