Cool MAKER, KumiKreator Bead & Braider Friendship Necklace and Bracelet Making Kit, Arts and Crafts Kids’ Toys for Girls Aged 8 and up

Bought this as a Christmas gift for my 8 year old. She loves it, we've used it a few times, she's made 3 bracelets so far, the first one we made together, the rest she's mostly done on her own. She's able to follow the guide to set it up and make the bracelet on her own but does need a little help to do the finishing bits (wrapping the little tape strips and feeling them into the clasps) as it can be fiddly but it's a good little product and we're happy with it. We will have to buy more reels and threads soon as it doesn't come with loads but for £10 you can buy a good little set of spare reels and thread so thats out plan

My girls had lots of fun using this set. Very clear instructions especially if you watch the YouTube tutorial. They produced lovely bracelets for their friends.

8 year old girl loves this! The downside is you can only make a few things before you need to buy more refills which isn't great. You can possibly wind some thread onto the little cartridges to refill them yourself but we've not tried it so not sure how possible it is.

They're enjoying a lot. Doing every day. Making him self dizayn and creating perfect. Amazing product.

Presented it to my niece and she loved it

Lovely bracelets but the tape that is supposed to finish it and hold it in place is terrible it doesn't hold it for long and it comes undone. Which is a shame.

Bought this for my Grand niece at christmas and she loved it shes a 5 year old all the family have bracelets including her dad

The setup was easy. The first bracelet went through beautifully. The cheap plastic clasps hard to open, and they slide right off the ends with a little bit of tugging, despite the end caps and stickers. I can't believe the plastic charms. No effort to look nice. But I could forgive all this if we could make a second bracelet. The way the machine works is two opposing gears grab the spools and dance them around. Somehow our spools got out of rhythm after we cut our bracelet loose, and now they can't return to their spots, ramming into each other. The troubleshooting guide says to go to their website (where the videos close when you hit play) or their YouTube channel (which is a giant commercial) for the how-to video. When I watched the video, it was only a how-to, nothing about fixing a jam. Unreal. Oh, and to add insult to injury, we found out after the fact that there are different spools for bracelets and necklaces. As far as we can find, that's only mentioned in troubleshooting at the very end. Waste of materials. UPDATE: I finally found the video under support on the desktop website. I was able to fix our problem with only a little fuss. We have not yet attempted to make another bracelet. I am still upset about the quality of materials, and if this proves to be worthwhile to keep, I will be ordering our own clasps/end caps that are metal and clamp down so they don't slide right off the ends of the bracelets.

Buono

Fue regalo de mi hija por Navidad y en cuestión de minutos ya tenía hechas sus pulseras!, el kit alcanza para varias pulseras y los dijes son bonitos. Realmente le encuentro mucho valor así pasa varias horas entretenida creando lindos diseños. Gracias Amazon!!!

Man kann nette Armbänder flechten damit. Leider ist nicht besonders viel Material dabei. Bald gehen schon die Schnüre aus. Man kann Nachschub kaufen, aber auch nicht ganz günstig. Aber das Gerät hält was es verspricht es kann schöne Bänder machen. Aber alle sehen irgendwie gleich aus auch wenn man die Farben mischen kann

Definitely needs adult help to set up or lots of wasted steing you can no longer use

I splurged on this and spent $30. I was hoping it would be a fun activity. It’s okay. I don’t think it was $30 experience worthy. It is pretty neat how it makes the weave. I can confirm that if you use a thin yarn (like sock yarn), you can wind the bobbins and you don’t have to use only what comes with the kit or purchase more. It comes with a pattern guide. I didn’t find the pattern guide to be overly reliable. That could be user error. But I tried to make the striped bracelet and I couldn’t make out any stripes in it. This may be difficult for younger children to figure out, to begin with, but with a little bit of help they’d probably do okay… depending on the child. Most children probably have more dexterity in their hands than I do and I was able to do it. It’s mostly understanding where the thread needs to travel so it doesn’t bind the machine up. That said we’ve already made a handful of bracelets and have had no issues with the machine binding or locking up. I do feel that an overaggressive winder could potentially snap one of the pieces if forcing the crank (rendering the whole thing broken). But as long as you don’t force it, it’s fun. If you can get this for under 20 bucks, I think it would be a good bye.
