Looks way too bulky.

Looks way too bulky.

And it’s in the same price category as the shuffletech. Maybe it’s not possible but for me to consider a machine rather than doing it by hand, it needs to be like half that price or less yet still work way better than the cheap toy crap that now make up the market below ST.

I think you're all missing the point of an automatic shuffler here. If you have a table with pass the deck and every one shuffles properly, good for you. You probably don't need one. However, if you do get one and a dedicated "playing dealer", all the others would probably appreciate it. Added bonus, it doesn't matter if you got a card mechanic in your group.

If they don't know how to shuffle, you're gonna get an ulcer. Or brain hemorage.

If you're the dedicated (playing) dealer, you're saving some time but it might not be worth it. It might also save your wrists a bit if your technic is off.

I actually got this on loaner to test it out from a friend. I haven’t got it to feed more than one card yet. The wheel design is the same style as an Ideal shuffler yet not mountable so what you see is what you get. I would say the size is smaller than an Ideal.

The OS feels modern but again with out having a successful test shuffle yet I can't give a full review.

Unless you want a non in table mounted shuffler and plan to have this on a side table. I still prefer in-table mount style for poker.

Yea if you plan on trying to stay at half a shuffler tech price for sure it would be not possible for a decent one because even at this price range these are as the kids say "mid".

Almost a week now and I still cant get this thing to feed correctly. I want to like it... the card adjustment is pretty difficult to adjust. I hate to need to switch decks after finding the settings for your current setup.

This is the worst adjusting screws up and down for thickness. Sometimes it feeds to much and Jams the other time it doesnt feed at all. So far I only been successful at feeding 1 card into the machine and wait fornthe to load then feed another 1 card into the machine.

The loud beep when it errors because of feeding issues is quite annoying

Here is a video of me just trying to empty out the carousel wheel of the cards I actually managed to feed 1 by 1.

I never even used a shuffle tech before but right now shuffle tech winning this if I had to choose between the two. There is only room from improvement from here if they want to actually produce something that's easier to use maybe a V2 or V3 will work better but this kickstarter version is .

That might explain the when people were asking for feedback.

Yeah that's too bad. I was kind of excited about this as something to fill the gap in the market between the ST and high-end refurbished casino shufflers. Hopefully they can iterate on this, because it does seem to have some unrealized potential.
