Customer Reviews for VEVOR Pottery Wheel 28cm Pottery Forming Machine 350W Electric Pottery Wheel with Adjustable Feet Lever Pedal DIY Clay Tool with Tray for Ceramic Work Clay Art DIY Clay Orange, 10 Piece

The unit is bigger yet smaller than expected. Seems like a decent product considering the source. They used a mandrel with belt drive and the motor is controlled using a motorcycle throttle on the inside. Cheap but fully repairable for handy people. I installed a batt on it and the weight of the batt combined with the weight of the clay seemed very stable and powerful smooth. Honestly for 130 bucks it’s worth it.

I bought this for my husband who took 3 years of pottery in school. He really missed doing it so this was an early Christmas gift. He's having the time of his life. No complaints. I wish you could see his smile!

I honestly have no complains other than when it first arrived it was rattling and when I took off the bottom to get inside I found a loose screw that went to the motor. I got it back in its spot well enuf and if works like it’s supposed to and I’ve already made a couple things!UPDATEI’m loving this wheel!! I’ve been using it everyday and I love how fast and strong the little motor is!

This is a much smaller wheel than the ones you will use taking classes at your local art studio. That being said. It works. I have been able to throw small and mid-Sized pots. The wheel does slow slightly when you are centering if you are using a lot of clay.I think this wheel has a high speed. The speed control is not especially sensitive and as a tall human I don’t find the foot pedal to be functional. I sit on a plastic foot stool, I have the wheel on a mat on the floor. I couldn’t find the right combination of table height and chair height to do otherwise, but someone more handy could make it work.I actually enjoy using it and have made lots of mugs and bowls. My biggest complaint is that it’s messy. Because the tray is so small clay and clay water sometimes goes flying off the wheel. The tray is removable for cleaning. I think this is a good wheel for someone who wants a cheap starter wheel for practice. This is good sized for kids.Overall- functional. Inexpensive. Portable.

We like the wheel thrower but the try leaks so you’ll need to put something under the try like towels or bags

It came 4 days earlier than expected and I’m so excited to use it! I took ceramics 1 in college and we only did hand building so never got to use the wheels. My professor is also not doing her ceramics 2 class for a while due to construction in her class room so I felt bummed out that I wouldn’t be able to try wheel throwing out. My dad bought it for me and it’s such a nice gift! I can’t wait to throw mugs because I have a hard time hand building even, symmetrical mugs lol. The size and quality of it is better than expected. It rotates without wobbling and seems pretty sturdy. My basin wasn’t cracked which is something I was worried about since some reviews said theirs was cracked. I’ll try and post an updated review once I actually try it out but I can’t wait to use it! It’ll fit perfectly on my backyard patio :)UPDATE: added some photos of stuff I’ve made so far! My clay is currently drier than most so I’ve just been hand building things then putting them on the wheel to trim and smooth out. If I wet the clay enough on the wheel, it basically feels like I’m “throwing” lol but I can’t really throw yet till I get a fresh bag of clay. It spins well, is easy to clean, gets up to a really good speed, and is a nice size. Just wish it was more silent but I never have to be quiet in my house so that’s fine with me :)

Got this for my daughter and she loves it!!!

This tiny wheel is soooo much fun! Extremely quiet. Spins both directions. Has a variable speed nob.It actually spins st fast! The 1st piece of clay I tried to center, I turned the wheel all the way up as fast as it would go. I could easily put pressure on the wheel without stopping it and got the clay centered. Then I started opening it up and that's when most of the clay flew off! I centered what was left and made the little vase in the photos.Totally worth it and looking forward to getting these fired and glazed.

This is perfect for what I use it for. Sanding and polishing homemade dice.

This pottery wheel is very well-made!
