This card shuffler is great. We play a lot of card games & this shuffler is the best one I’ve ever purchased. It’s fast, efficient & the cards don’t jam up. I particularly like that it holds 4 decks of cards. Highly recommend!

We play a lot of hand and foot. This saves time and wear and tear on cards. Will occasionally flip a card backward and have a few get sideways but all in all a good shuffler.

I wanted to like this unit because it's simple and quick. But VERY noisy - you can't have a conversation over drinks while it's shuffling. I'm running 4 decks and they are new, slick as snot plastic coated cards. (Perhaps that's the main issue?). You might have a different experience with just 2 or 1 decks but I doubt it. About 80% of the time it will flip a few cards upside down and/or jam cards in the side. Occasionally jams so badly that it stops and you have to unjam it. It also (at least on mine) runs out of cards on the right side much faster than the left so I have to put about 20% more cards on the right to keep it from simply dumping cards in the same order they stacked in. I wouldn't recommend this unit. I'm going to go to a higher price tier and hopefully get better results.

It is 100% a good gift , I like the machine I just don’t understand what causes it to malfunction often and how, the value of the product is good if you play cards often and have extra batteries.

Battery location is very awkward, looks like it should take C batteries instead of the AA which can cause the AA batteries to not connect correctly. Otherwise it is alright.Was buying for an older relative but they will not be able to put the batteries in without a lot of trouble so will keep for myself.

3 deck card shuffler, used multiple times hourly. Makes card play easier for stiff fingers. Simple to use, provides best card mix when managed with meld separation. Needs running in just like a vehicle engine. Best with quality batteries. Every canasta player should buy one.

I bought 2.****DO NOT BUY!!!!**********GARBAGE!!!!!****My experience was as follows:They arrived quickly and appeared undamaged upon receipt.First thing: Looks cheap and feels like it too.No spring loaded tray as described.Box CLEARLY states 4AA batteries but when you open the panel, it obvious that they now use 4 C batteries. (see photos)I happen to have 4 C batteries. I installed them and placed a deck on either side. Pressed the button and... nothing. No sound, no movement ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.Looked for anything that could be an on/off switch; nope.So I opened the second one. Same thing. no reaction to the button at all. Tried other known-working batteries. Same result. Nothing.After reading the 1/2 page "Troubleshooting Guide" and several You Tube videos I find out that these things hardly ever work right , if it does, probably not for long.After fooling with them Yes, BOTH, and not getting either to work, I am sending them back.Complete trash!!!What a complete waste of time and money (not to mention piece of mind)Should be called "Lie Belly" Frauds!!!

I purchased this 4-deck shuffler in advance of having friends over to play cards. The box label stated requires 4 AA batteries. Therefore I made certain to have 4 new AA batteries to place in the shuffler when it arrived. The day my guests were here to play cards, I opened the shuffler battery box to place the batteries which was obvious that we needed a different size battery which should have been C batteries. It was disappointing and frustrating that the shuffler would not work without the correct size batteries even though the box explicitly stated "requires 4 AA batteries. When I came back to the Amazon purchase, it was stated in the description to contact the company instead of the retailer if there was an issue with the shuffler. I called and sent an email which was frankly a disappointing response. The company first said that it must not have been one of their shufflers because it would have had the correct info on the box. I had sent photos with my email to show the box and where it stated 4 AA batteries. I only received a message back after I sent yet another photo to prove that it was indeed their product. Nothing was offered other than an apology for my inconvenience, other than to let me know that they had sent a message to Amazon to make them aware of incorrect boxes. I would have thought that Brybelly (the manufacturer) would have offered something for my trouble which they did not. I haven't heard anything back from either Amazon or Brybelly about this issue. Just adding this info to make anyone aware of this in case they are considering a purchase of this shuffler. I have purchased C batteries which seems to make the shuffler work properly but haven't used but one time. I would prefer to have a correct box so that when I might need to replace another time and wouldn't need to remember to open the battery unit to discover that I need a different size.

Gear mechanism works ok but it is a bit noisy. If you use four decks, it's a bit sloppy and the cards kind of pile up sideways in the receiving tray and jam up the shuffle. Works well most of the time but we put a table cloth under it so that it isn't so noisy.

Super útil este mezclador, la familia de mi novia les gusta mucho jugar juegos de mesa y este barajeador es perfecto ya que ayuda a que todos en la familia lo podamos usar. Ocupa 4 baterias AA y es un poco ruidoso.

Yes, it's a little janky, and cheap looking, and made of cheap plastic. And, yes, it rattles, and sometimes the cards get flipped over on the outside of the deck as they are coming down the chute, but MAN OH MAN, playing Skip-bo (which is a great game, you should check it out), which is at least triple the number of a regular card deck is so much easier now! Your arthritic hands will thank you.

I am very grateful to have this shuffler. I have arthritis in my hands and cannot shuffle a deck of cards. This is a great tool for me. My family uses it as well, especially when we play card games that require two or more decks. It is made of lightweight plastic and runs on batteries. So far it has lasted through lots of play with our many grandchildren and adult children. Great tool!
