The Quilted Bear Versatile Extendable Seat Frame - Beech Wood Embroidery Hoop & Tapestry Frame Holder for Embroidery, Quilting, Tapestry & Needlecrafts

Very simple to put together and probably the best instructions I've ever read. Sturdy and versatile.

I found the things snagged a bit on my clothes when trying to use it.It didn’t reach high enough for me so was constantly looking to far down and got neck ache which is why I bought it in the first place.I have gone back to holding my frame in hand for embroidery.

This is really good quality but I need to watch some videos on how to use it properly as I just can’t get the hang of it. I’m sure it’ll make things easier but I’m used to seeing one way and this is different

This was easy to put together and does just what it needs to.I have a 10" hoop in it currently & the foot is large enough for it to stand on a side table without extra support.It's not as easy to adjust position as I had hoped - rather than the main stem being fixed, it would be good if that was adjustable too, as when I sit on the base it's too close to me. I have adjusted the other parts to compensate but still a bit close for really comfortable stitching and I can't use a larger hoop or frame in it.

Absolute nightmare! Took me hours trying to put one together, parts were cheaply made, screw holes not properly aligned, 'handle' section of Part F came unscrewed from its screw when the screw thread got stuck in Hole 3. Part H had no corresponding hole in part E and therefore stood very proud from part D and, in consequence, obstructed the working of the clamp, the screw in the base of part B protruded through the base and therefore would have damaged any surface it was placed on and part B could not be securely tightened unless the screw protruded. I bought 10 of these to give to my students, many of whom do not have English as their first language and the thought of how difficult it will be for them to construct these frames and how long it would take them simply does not bear thinking about. I shall return these useless items.

Sturdy little frame that was easy enough to put together, however, does anyone really see the point of the screw (part H), that goes into hole 4 of the clamp. Seems a bit pointless to me but if someone can explain, if really appreciate it, thanks.

Excellent quality. Versatile. Do need to keep adjusting for larger pieces. There’s no swivel or ball joint to angle the ring. Not for anything that requires regular access to the back of the work eg cross stitching.

Don’t like this at all

This would have been perfect if I could adjust the head more. It is glued to one spot. Otherwise it holds what I need and works well

I was so excited to see this embroidery hoop stand, it seems to have it all. I had return one I bought a few days ago because it would not hold the hoop firm enough. I ordered this one for $22.49 on 1/13/23. What I received today was not this awesome fully adjustable with dual clamping hoop holder. I got a very nice basic one. My disappointment is great. It is obvious to me that they mixed up the price point. I did not make a mistake about what I ordered. The seller made the mistake and I am having to pay for it. They could have contacted me and owned up to their mistake or better yet they could have sent what I ordered at the price I ordered it at. That would have been the best option for myself and the seller. Now I have to send back the other model and shop for an alternative. I could be writing a wonderful review instead of me totally disappointed. In any retail situation I would have got this model and the lower price it was listed at on 1/13/23. But because it's an online transaction I guess I just have to pay for their mistake.That doesn't mean I have to do it quietly. Amazon customer service wasn't helpful either. This is my worse Amazon Shopping day in our long history together.

The item arrived in a nearly flattened product box that was torn (not the shipping box but the actual product box. Very poor presentation and we were worried parts would be missing.All the parts were there however, so my boyfriend went ahead and put it together for me. Fast forward to today (about a week later), I went to finally use it for the first time but I could not attach my hoop without the part that holds the hoop falling out of its connected area. It looks like a part that is secured with glue but the glue is not strong enough...not sure.I thought about gluing it but then decided I did not like how little it actually adjusts compared to what the photos seem to present.Final nail in the coffin? I go to submit a return and find out I have to mail it back to the company and wait for a refund. They are overseas so that is not ideal as I still need to order an alternative fast. Not what I expect from amazon as a prime member. I should have made sure returns would be easy if necessary. Grrr...I would not recommend this item if you are in the States. Too much of a gamble.

I like the wooden aspect and the adjustable parts. I did not like the fact that the box it came in had totally come apart! Thank goodness all the pieces were there intact! I did try it out and I do like it.

The screws tighten only so far. Therefore, the hoop is not stable and is very hard to work with.
