Cool little thing! Only downer is pricey accessories--but see my tip.Jan 06, 2007
By griffinormom
I just got my felting tool in the mail, & have tried it out a little & it seems great-- I've also read many positive reviews on crafter's websites. I think this is probably going to be a handy & pleasant tool to use. My one problem with it is that Clover wants you to buy their special brush felting mat to use with the tool, for another $16 or so. Now, you do need something to felt onto, but I've just discovered that using a tightly-wound ball of scrap yarn (mine's wool, but I don't know why acrylic wouldn't work--cotton might be too hard & break the needles) works fine as a surface to felt into, as long as your applique isn't very big (because it's a curved surface & it might get tricky to felt something big--though I guess you could just do it in sections? I'll be experimenting... :-) Anyway, hope this tip helps someone out. Note, though, this WILL ruin the ball of yarn, so it should really be scrap!

 Faster needle felting!Aug 08, 2008
By Marka Twaina
This is such a great product! It is comfortable to hold and easier to store than loose felting needles. I also bought the special brush pad to use with this, but in most cases I think this Clover felting tool works better with a normal felting foam pad underneath (so long as it's thick enough). The five needles are easy to switch out, and it can accommodate felting needles of different lengths.

 Extremely fragile.Jan 03, 2011
By E. Broome
Clover is a basic, no-frills brand that I've trusted in the past for bamboo knitting needles. This product seemed like a great idea.
It's got 5 needles instead of 1 to increase your felting ability. It also has a clear plastic cover which slips down over the needles after each "stab" to prevent injury. The needles are extremely sharp, so a built-in safety measure would be great, particularly for younger kids (age 8 + is recommended) who are learning to felt. But after about 15 minutes of use, 4 of the 5 needles bent and two broke off completely. I'm not particularly heavy-handed, they just snapped off. The steel is thin and brittle. Maybe we just got a bad batch? I am going to replace them once and see if the same thing happens. An update will follow...

VERY USEFUL AND EASY TO USEFeb 18, 2008
By Jane Jenerette
If you want to needle felt by hand, this is the tool. Accompanied by the needle felting mat, it makes it easy to make soft beautiful items.

Makes for quick felting!Nov 24, 2009
By pukuco
This is a great needle felting tool! I love that it speeds up the process and makes it easier to felt faster. The locking mechanism is nice and it's very easy to change out the needles. I even bought a second one and heavier needles so that I have one full of fine needles and one full of heavy needles so that I can switch back and forth while making a project.
