Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We use this for 3-deck Hand & Foot Canasta. I have arthritis in my thumbs, which makes it difficult to shuffle by hand. We play several times a week and it works perfectly...once we learned the secret. After dozens of shuffles with the same three decks, the cards weren't feeding well, and it got progressively worse. We thought it was the feed wheels but when I set the decks aside to look at the shuffler, I noticed that there was a very slight curve to the cards. They cards had bowed ever so slightly from repeated shuffling, but that was enough to affect the feed. On a hunch, we flipped the deck over (so the faces, rather than the backs, were facing up in the shuffler) and it immediately worked like new. Bottom line, it was the cards, not the shuffler that were causing the issue. Try flipping the deck if your shuffler performance slows.
