"Hana-Ami" Flower Loom 6 Shape Set, Pink/Blue Review

I hesitated to buy this due to some negative reviews, but my experience with Clover tools has been very good, so I decided to get the Hana-Ami anyway. This loom combo is excellent. What I like:
1. Six looms that all nest together in one closed container.
2. Each loom fits onto the base individually, and the base has slots and notches to hold yarn tails. No trouble keeping a grip on the small circle and square.
3. Compared to other looms, these have more pegs. More pegs allows more options and fuller motifs when using thinner yarns, raffias, strings, whatever. The pegs are as tall as on other looms I have, so I don't know why others have trouble keeping loops on. The Hana-Ami's pegs are slightly tapered, which helps if you want to transfer loops to adjacent pegs (which you might do while weaving petals, for example, to taper the petal points).
4. This set comes with a centre peg that can be used on the base when making partial circles or squares or hexagons. The woven fan shape, a quarter circle, in the instructions could make dangles for earrings or an interesting pendant on a necklace.
5. Comes with a plastic needle with a curved tip.
6. Detailed instructions inside, and you can always find a lot more ideas for small looms at knitting-and dot com.
7. Includes approximate length of yarn needed for one pass around each loom. You know in advance if that scrap of leftover yarn is long enough to be useful. Actually, just about anything is long enough to be used in a flower centre.
I say ignore the naysayers and give this set a try. I doubt you'll regret it.
