The media could not be loaded. I looked at many reviews for as many shufflers as I could find on line. This one was the most popular and rated well, so I ordered it. We play cards with friends frequently and use 6 decks for our favorite game. As some of us have arthritis in our hands, we have discussed that a shuffler would be so much easier to use. When I recieved the Shuffler from Amazon, I actually text'd photos to friends and we are all excited to get together to use it! There were only a couple small problems when we unboxed and put it together. First was there was nowhere on the box or packaging which told us what size batteries ("C' size) to use. I went on line and found the info. Secondly, the little clips which hold the clear card recepticle on the front of the unit would not stay on, so we had to glue them in for stability. Third, one of the sides would not pull the cards in to the shuffler and we were lucky to figure out how to move it around enough to fix the problem. So now, we have a fully functional shuffler! I took a video of it in action. We will use it and see how long it will work for us, then report back as to it's sustainability.

I purchased two for our card group. The first didn't work and I sent it back and received a quick replacement. The shuffler is supposed to handle 6 decks, but when I put in all 6 decks cards fall out the front or slip down beside the carrier. I'd be willing to pay more money for a more sturdy unit but this appears to be the best Amazon has to offer. All plastic.

This card shuffler is great. It shuffles quickly and using 2 decks of cards does not jam up at all. Some have complained about the sound. However, I didn't feel it was too loud and as fast as it shuffled the cards it was only a few seconds of noise. I would recommend this.

Way easier than shuffling cards by hand. Only thing I've noticed is when the cards start to shuffle and fall, slide the clear plastic tray to the bottom so incoming cards don't get stuck on the sides and jamb up. Instead of just the weight of the cards pushing the clear tray down on the spring by itself. Works fantastic otherwise! Batteries seem to last a long time too. It gets used a lot and never a problem with it. Highly recommended!

I need to update my review.
The cards were flopping around because I used Skip Bo cards which are smaller so the cards would not have flipped around if I had used the proper size cards so I have upgraded my review however, it still is a fairly flimsy unit in my opinion. Below is my original review.

It almost always flips cards over etc and is pretty flimsy. Works but you will still have to shuffle by hand as well for best results
