My wife got one of these a couple of years ago. It doesn't hold a lot of yarn but she shays," Good enough for most."
The plastic gear tear on the pinion often slip, which isn't a critical failure, but makes for a slighlty jerky motion when you're trying to maintain steady tension. Everyone of her fellow knitters has one of these Royal winders and the gear slippage thing happens to all of them. There's a model that supposedly works much better (The Royal Jumbo) and holds a lot more yar but costs about 6 times as much. Ah well, what's a little clunk clunk while winding? ;-)
