The Hague PDB 250g Electric Yarn Winder will wind up to 250 grammes, depending on the type of yarn used and comes complete with its own Disc Tension, leaving the mast on your knitting machine free to carry on knitting while you are winding. A spare Bobbin is also supplied. There is no auto switch off, so you will have to switch the yarn winder off once the bobbin is full.
The winder will be the correct voltage for the country it is being sent to, you may have to fit a suitable plug in some countries.
With all electric twisters and winders the internal drive belt is a constantly moving part, similar to a tyre on a car, and therefore we would always recommend buying a spare pack of drive belts to have available should the belt ever need replacing. The winder is also designed for domestic use, not industrial use.

Works, but finicky
Assembly is quick and it's got sturdy construction. At first I was confused by the two bobbins, but soon realized why. The first wind is super tight, even on the lowest tension. You can't slip it off the bobbin. I found a second wind coming off the first bobbin is necessary for a reasonable tension. It's a finicky process, loose enough tension not to stretch the yarn, and it slips off so much you have to unwind and rewind. Too tight, and you can't get it off the bobbin. This saves elbow grease and shoulder aches but not time. I wouldn't recommend it for a time saver or for a shop, too many variables. But definitely worth it if you have tennis elbow and 7 akeins of fingering weight yarn to wind for the Find Your Fade shawl. Shipped fast and packed well.
