BHD BEAUTY Beige 13 Dials Female Fabric Adjustable Mannequin Dress Form for Sewing, Mannequin Body Torso with Tri-Pod Stand, Up to 70" Shoulder Height (Medium)

I can't be mad. This dress form was insanely easy to assemble and is very light weight. It has a ton of knobs for adjusting, including torso lengthening. That being said the body material is pretty thin, so you're going to have some issues pinning unless you go in at an angle. The base is also all plastic, so be careful you don't damage them because it will not stand with only three legs. The knobs feel very sturdy and they lock in. You have to pinch the button to make them turn.I down graded maneuverability because the rod for the base does not snap into the body. So if you want to move it, you have to take it apart or try and balance it on the pole as you lift.I was able to grab this on sale, and I am content with the price I paid for the quality of the item.

It has changed my sawing habits. I have never thought I would be able to complete the full-length jacket all by myself.

The knobs are very difficult to turn! If you are a professional dress maker, this model would not be sturdy enough. I just received it, and other than putting it together, I haven't used it yet. I am still trying to get all the knobs to move. However, I am glad I chose Amazon, if I really need to return it. The box it arrived in was huge. It also could have been packed better. I see there has not been a review for over a year, so I hope this helps.

Great quality. Exactly as expected

This is my first dress form, therefore making a comparison to another one is not possible. However, I really like it so far. I've wanted one for a while and this one received the most positive number of reviews. I assembled it by myself, no issues, and set the measurements to my specific measurements, including the height. The height was the most challenging. My suggestion is to not rely on the dials for accuracy. Once you have set the dials, check it against your own measurement to ensure accuracy and adjust as needed. Looking forward to using it to make quite a few sewing projects. :-)

great for curvy bodies

I have had 2 dressforms that broke. This is a real beauty!! Half the price I paid for the other 2 cheapos. KoAnn fabrics waay too expensive. I chose this one. I'm a professional Couturist/ Costume Designer.. This is true to size, can pin patterns to it. Only wish it had wheels on legs. Hard to move it.

It looked like it'd be so easy to put together and to make the adjustments. However, it isn't. It's very difficult to put together. The height bar to be exact. Once in place adjusting is practically not an option. The body dials are slightly off by measurments but I was able to just measure myself and adjust to match. The form itself is beautiful. The fabric texture is nice and the color looks great. It does feel very strong while also very wobbly at the same time (the form, not the stand, the stand is honestly too strong) It's very easy to pick up and move around too. I just think adjusting te shape is gonna take extra tools and because of that I don't think I'd spend the money on it.
