Comments about Addi Addi Click Turbo Needle Kit:
The versatility of these needles is wonderful. I am not giving this a five star because the needles begin at #4 and 26" - so nothing smaller than a 4 and no 16" options. However, they are still worth the price. They have the same slickness as the regular addi turbos. I noticed the join snagged on some yarns, but generally it was not a problem at all - had more to do with the yarn, I think. The new case is great. I thought I'd transfer them to a nicer case but ended up really liking the black travel bag - very cool magnetic clasps. I have a fairly extensive collection of needles - knitting is my passion. But this really fits those sizes I don't use as often. No need to purchase more sizes that aren't my "usual" sizes. I find I'm using these in place of some very nice needles I owned that are not interchangeable - particularly with sticky yarns. Wonderful product!
Wow - fast and efficient delivery. I actually returned a different manufacturer's set (all purchased through Alpaca Direct through Amazon) and the refund was efficient. Then I purchased this set - both sets arrived very quickly. I will be a repeat customer. I wondered how the refund for the first different manufacturer's set through Amazon would go and it was fast and efficient. Impressive!

Comments about Addi Addi Click Turbo Needle Kit:
My wife and I are proud owners of 2 Addi Turbo Click sets, 1 for her and 1 for me. My wife is an experienced knitter and has regular Addi needles in her needle collection. I am a new, novice knitter just beginning this past winter. I began with bamboo, moved to plastic, then standard metal. On a recent project, my wife loaned me her regular Addi needles, and I fell in live with them. We decided to order a Click set for each us, because I love them, and my wife wanted to protect her needle collection. We travel so the sets gives us flexibility in what we can do with those yarn treasures you find when you travel. My experience is, it easy to maintain tension, the yarn does not catch on the cable/needle connection, and the needles don't disconnect from the cable. I tend to cast on tight, so I cast on with a needle one-size larger then switch down to the right size. I also like the ability to increase the length of the cable as the project grows. As in all Addi needles, you will need to learn to keep your fingertips on the ends of the needles so you don't drop stitches. We are impressed to the point we are looking forward to getting 2 sets of Addi Lace Click's, again 1 for my wife and 1 for me.

Comments about Addi Addi Click Turbo Needle Kit:
Great product. This was my first time using interchangeable needles and they were very easy to use. Clicks into place without much effort. Yarn doesn't snag at the joints and glides easily over needle and cable.
Great Service from Alpaca Direct. I received my package within one week of ordering. Fast Service!

Comments about Addi Addi Click Turbo Needle Kit:
These are so easy to use. Love the fact that I can buy additional cord and connectors. Will always have the right size needle. I would like to get a 3 and 2 needles to add to the set.

Comments about Addi Addi Click Turbo Needle Kit:
The whole package is excellent. I like the compact but sturdy casing. The needle tips have a good weight and feel, and work very easily. I just have to be a little more cautious with very slippery yarns, since these needles slide so easily. The joining for these needles is secure and dependable as opposed to traditional screw ins, which can work their way loose as you work your project.
