Designed for both beginners and seasoned spinners, the Echo blends classic craftsmanship with thoughtful modern features. Its lightweight build and ergonomic feel make it a smart choice for spinning at home, at events, or in classes—especially if you want a wheel that’s easy to move and easy to live with.
What’s New: Wood Hub Returns
Based on customer feedback, the Echo’s 3D-printed plastic hub has been replaced with a wood hub to better match aesthetic preferences. This is a cosmetic change that keeps the same performance and functionality spinners expect from the Echo.
Why Choose the SpinOlution Echo?
Built from durable Baltic birch wood with a compact footprint, the Echo includes a built-in handle for portability. Weighing about 14 pounds, it’s a great fit for spinners who travel to guild nights, workshops, vending events, or classes. The updated 2024 model includes a “knock-less” treadle design for lower-impact, ergonomic spinning sessions.
The Echo is known for smooth treadling and quiet operation, plus an adjustable tension system for steady control while you spin. An open hook orifice gives you room for thicker singles, textured yarns, and creative add-ins, while magnetic bobbins simplify bobbin changes for production spinning. A stretchy drive band also makes ratio changes quick.
For a special finish, SpinOlution offers an optional engraving choice: Morning Glory engraving option .
