6th July, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Excellent fans "These fans are really nice and to put the effort into wicking them yourself really gives a respect energy to them. I highly recommend grabbing a handful of nitrile gloves to help you push the needle thru the wick. I say a handful because they will probably rip from rubbing against the needle." Heather Dixon, USA.

2nd June, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Great Product Great Price "These fans are absolutely incredible. I bought them on a whim, opting to get the ones with stitch on wicks rather than normal wicks for the price difference, which I recommend as stitching them on isn't to hard. The fans are large enough that they won't burn your hands but are still usable for tech type moves and spins, are amazingly light and easy to handle with large bright visible flames. Definitely would recommend these fans to a friend." Cass, USA. [Verified Buyer] BRONZE Member since May 2016

30th May, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own I love them "Pretty easy to sew on, especially if you have a thimble. I appreciate the 2 needles I received with my order though I broke them both fairly quickly. Found more success with an embroidery needle. I taped up the gap in the bottom of the ring with gaffer because my pinky kept getting stuck in there, I'm super new to fans though so I think if my skill improves I wouldn't have as much of an issue."

4th March, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own I'm in love. "Home of poi exceeded my expectations and I'm absolutely in love with my fans. I would recommend maybe getting a thicker needle if you're like me and break thinner ones for sewing the wicks on, but other than that, which is user error, I have had no problems! Thank you Home of Poi!!!" Rosie B., USA. [Verified Buyer] SILVER Member since Feb 2016
12th February, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Perfect for techy fan spinning "I absolutely love this set. I can do way more techy moves and far easier spinning using these than my original 5 wick pair. The only complaint is the needle that came with my kit seemed a bit flimsy, but the fans themselves rock." Sarah, USA. [Verified Buyer] SILVER Member since May 2015
30th April, 2018 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Great but not perfect "For the most part I am so happy with these! The design is amazing, balance and weight is really ideal and everything seems really high quality so far, the spider fans are a joy to spin. The value is also amazing and I feel a little more connected to my fans after stitching the wicks on myself. However, one of the needles was broken when I received it and there wasn't enough thread in the kit to stitch everything as thoroughly as I would have liked so I would suggest HoP to include at least another meter of thread on the spool :)" Alice Bauman, USA.

27th January, 2017 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Bent Frame "I love my fans. They are well built and easy to wick. However, When i got them in the mail, part of the frame was bent and had to be bent back into place. I suggest using a large flat rate durable box to prevent that from happening. Overall, Great company and products! I can't wait to spin these !" Sheona T, USA. [Verified Buyer] BRONZE Member since Jan 2017

15th December, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own What a price! "Arrived in less than two weeks, lightweight, and it really pays off to order the DIY option. They burn like crazy, it'll take a bit of time to get used to, since I worked with larger fans before(more distance). The grip works well for spinning, a bit less for static/closed grip moves, but then again, I should just practice more :) My only concern is their durability. But for this price, I can easily order a new pair if I abuse them too much. Oh the joy of blatant consumerism :P" Tina, Slovenia. [Verified Buyer] BRONZE Member since Nov 2016

30th July, 2016 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Review "I own a pair of medium lotus fans but I decided to give these a try as well. They are much better for Russian style technical spinning compared to the lotuses. They are light and easy to spin, although they tend to bend if they are dropped. I don't really see the purpose of those small finger holes, especially if you're doing tech, but they don't get in the way either. All in all, a decent product, considering the price." L., Romania.

5th May, 2018 Buy Pair of Spider Fire Fans 2inch Wick Kit - Make Your Own Get what you pay for "I have bought 4 sets of HOP fire fans in my life. Yes, they're cheap fans but they are unbalanced, and Everytime I order them they come bowed to the point where I can't even submit a photo of the damages because it's more of a feel then a problem you can see. They're packaged not in a box with their fragile frames and weak metal, but in bubble wrap and plastic, which obviously isn't strong enough because my two pairs of lotus fans and my two sets of spider web fans came bowed. As a serious performer I don't buy fans to have them past me a few months. The fans came with the smallest amount of Kevlar thread, I had to go buy more. One time I bought a pair that was even missing a wick! I've performed with these fans from the beginning so I don't like ragging on them, but now that I've spent some time with some other brands of fans, I suggest that you go with another company."

Reply from Home of Poi: "customer had only just received these, Our support crew sorting out a free replacement. All parcels come with insurance incase of damage to the goods. In store we use around 4 meters in total for two fans. In the spool we include 10m which is more then double that is required as shown in our tutorial video. "
