NODOCA 64'' Tufting Frame with Spikes, Aluminum Metal Tufting Frame for Rug Making, Tufted Frame for Beginners, Tufting Cloth Stand for Carpet Making, Tufting Supplies [64inch/160cm]

I started tufting about 10 weeks ago. I am retired, so that means I can spend a lot of time and too much money on things that I find satisfying. I am outgrowing my first frame, but not yet skilled enough for the really big frame that I already have. This is perfect in lots of ways: 1. I had no trouble putting it together without help. 2. It’s really light, so I can easily move it. 3. It’s exactly the right width for my supply of cloth. I had a lot of wastage with the smaller frame. 4. The fabric is TIGHT when stretched. You can see in the pic how I wrapped it around the sides before attaching it. It took more time than with carpet tack strips, so it is so worth it. No tearing no matter how tight you go. 5. It comes with way more fasteners than you could use at one time and that’s great insurance for when the dog snatches one. 6. The height is adjustable, the width is not. Too bad, that would be extra wonderful. 7. It comes with everything you need, but I wished I hadn’t lost my socket wrench. 8. No little spikes to avoid or to tear your fabric. 9. The price seems fair, based on quality, great design and comparison to other frames you can buy. Improvements on my wishlist: 1. Include more pieces for flexibility in dimensions. Like a great big Lego set. 2. Include an extra cross beam for the base. That’s about it. I will probably use this one instead of my smaller one.

I love this trying frame it’s perfect for those big projects you’ll need to complete. It’s very simple to put together and it doesn’t push backwards when pressing your tufting gun firmly against it. Regardless where you are in your tufting journey beginner or pro this is the perfect frame for you with a great price tag!

This frame took me some time to assemble and was a bit awkward with the brackets and bolts/screws. It included a small wrench, but that is what makes assembly difficult and tedious. It is difficult to screw the bolts due to the positioning next to the bracket and having to ensure the screw it twisted properly so that it doesn't come back out. After assembly, it looks sturdy and durable. Per the manual, it includes 100 cloth holders. I have not used this frame yet to test its ability/quality while tufting my rugs. It is a good value based on the adjustable height, aluminum/metal structure, light weight/easy to move/lift and not having the carpenter nails scratching me while tufting. I will update my review based on results while tufting.

I am beyond impressed with this 53-inch aluminum tufting frame. I actually set this up with the "help" of my 3-year-old, and we were completely finished in about an hour! The assembly is incredibly intuitive and straightforward. The design is very well thought out. The base is nice and wide, making it feel very sturdy, and the legs are shaped in a way that makes them easy to weigh down or anchor for extra stability while tufting. The 53-inch size provides a massive workspace, and I love the thoughtful additions—like the extra gripper teeth and the bars to hang your yarn or supplies. If you're looking for a professional-feeling frame that doesn't take a rocket scientist to put together, this is it. Highly recommend for any rug maker!

Really nice frame for making rugs! Love it and it is very sturdy.

This frame has not been ideal to say the least the screw system is terrible, it does NOT keep your monks cloth tight no matter how many you put in. Several fly out as you tufting and the cloth is NEVER tight. The screws wind up ripping your fabric and if you don’t have a good grip or hand strength you will not be able to get them in the groove. I ended up using pliers to put them in while I was trying to stretch it. Terrible design! And no matter how tight you put the screws in the joints of the metal it still comes loose so with the pressure of my tufting gun, the whole frame squeaks back and forth and doesn’t have much sturdiness. I will probably have to add two more braces on the back of the legs for stability and I’m going to try putting a tack strip in the grooves so I won’t have to use the PLASTIC screws and pliers. So unless you are prepared to do major modifying on this frame or have great hand strength don’t waste your money on it. It costs less than 65 dollars to make a custom size frame at Lowe’s by the way.

Instructions were unclear and not in order. I ended up breaking it to take it apart to put the pins in. Also, the parts are extremely hard to piece together.

Item was scary looking at putting it all together I held it off for three days bc the paper instructions aren’t really clear last few steps went online cleared it up. The videos are helpful as well as a closer look. I wish they would have put need help go to store so I wouldn’t have procrastinated. But it’s out together now I have a question too how do I adjust the size of the frame??
