Good for the price; patience required
Not bad. Very good for a child or a learner with a lot of patience. Reasonably priced for what you get. The small size makes it nicely portable though it cannot go anywhere you’d like to be quiet. I use it with headphones on.I’ve never used a potting wheel before. This seems adequate. It is very loud. The speed controls are only on/off which can make detail work harder.The instruction booklet contains no useful instructions for use beyond how to turn it on.The wheel does not seem durable long-term but it’s quality matched the low price. With patience and a lot of trial and error to get they clay wet enough (but not too wet) I was able to make a few small pieces.

Great play set for kids. Don’t expect much from the wheel.
This product comes with a lot. Plenty of tools and paint to keep my kid busy. The clay was too wet and needed to be dried out some. The wheel is not strong at all. So don’t think you potters out there are centering anything on this. Let the kids just have fun making crooked pots and hand building. There’s no variable speed for the wheel and it takes C batteries instead of an outlet plug. It’s a little noisy but not too bad. Overall I would buy it again. Good toy!

Okay For Beginners
The media could not be loaded. Good For TIme Users.I bought this for my 10 year old. I watched the YouTube video for directions and it’s pretty easy to set up. I would say it’s average and decent for a beginner, however, the two speed settings are the same so you can’t go slower. This was disappointing as you expect a slower setting. If you get the clay too wet it could turn into a disaster. I suggest watching some videos before trying it with your child. Obviously it takes practice.

Love it
Bought for our 9 year old art loving kid! Easy set up, came with everything you need. Able to do it on their own with instructions provided. Great that it can be battery operated or plug in. Definitely recommend.

Good Quality, Fair Price
I Have had a lot of pottery wheels growing up, and this kit by far was the best I have ever seen. My daughter kept asking for a pottery wheel for her 4th birthday so I started reading reviews and found this to have the best rating. I am pleased I read through because this is great. We had so much fun molding clay and using the wheel to make little vases and pots! It has two different types of paints so they can choose which style they want it to be. More pottery looking or a higher gloss. It came with lots of tools that my daughter live experimenting with. The wheel is sturdy and not cheap and flimsy like ones I had as a kid. It worked well and actually it took someGetting use too because it wasn't intermittent like cheap ones I have had before. It moved at a steady fast pace. It almost felt like a miniature version of a real wheel!! I think the price is very fair for the quality. We will enjoy doing this together for years to come!! My daughter absolutely loved doing it and it was a great activity for us to do together!!

Not functional as a pottery wheel
This pottery wheel is not usable as a pottery wheel. As soon as you apply even the most minimal amount of pressure to the clay to try and alter its shape, the wheel stops spinning and it makes a horrific sound that makes my children cry. There is nothing that locks the wheel to the motor part that turns it. The pieces fit together with a simple and loose fitting hexagon shaped insert. As soon as pressure is applied it becomes like an electric screwdriver stripping a screw. The motor keeps going but the hexagon shaped piece does not hold the wheel to keep the wheel spinning. I have no idea why other people gave it good reviews. We used it the first time yesterday and it’s going straight in the trash. I have experience with creating ceramic bowls etc. and have used real pottery wheels before. This is not usable for this purpose at all. A complete waste of money and a huge disappointment.
