Where I live, Chiaogoo needles are on the higher end of mid-range price range needles. Ive bought the more expensive needles and I dont use them any more since I bought by Chiaogoo needles. On the more expensive needles, cables break, the joins arent smooth, or the cables wont straighten out. Very frustrating. With the cheaper needles Ive actually worn out the tips with the way I knit. Ive put actual grooves in the tips, or the finish has worn away. With my Chiaogoo I havent had any of those problems. I wish when I started knitting, I had bought Chiaogoo instead of the other brands. I figure I could have bought 4 complete sets of Chiaogoo needles with what I spent over the years on the more expensive and cheaper needle brands. If I could go back in time I would tell my younger self to not bother with all the other brands. As well Chiaogoo stands behind their products 100%. If you have a problem, they honestly try to make it better.
If a new knitter asks what brand of needles they should get, I always recommend Chiaogoo. Even if its to buy their fixed circular or a single interchangeable set. If they cant figure out which type to buy (bamboo or length) I tell them to go to the nearest yarn shop and ask to try them out. If the shop is any good, they will have samples to try out. |
