The Cuthbertson verb wheel is the best! It's the most condensed tool you can have for Spanish. It makes the language make sense--it shows how rational it is. It should be used in classrooms to provide a graphic explanation of verb usage in Spanish. My wheel is at least 10 years old and I treasure it. Now that my daughter is learning Spanish I'm buying verb wheels for her and her friends, and also for her Spanish class!

I bought this because of the reviews it got. However, I could not read the wheel even with my reading glasses. Perhaps the other buyers had better eyesight than I. I'm sure it has good information on it but be aware that it is VERY small!

I bought my first in 1967 and am very glad to see it is still available. I like it because it is faster and easier to use than a paper dictionary or electronic dictionary, both of which I also have. My 1967 version is slightly out of allignment but that is no problem.

I had found this wheel extremely useful until recently, when I came across some errors and lost confidence in it. For example, it incorrectly shows accents in the preterite for dar, ser, and ir. This may have been correct in 1933, when the wheel was copyrighted; perhaps the language has evolved since then.
It's time for a new edition.

Poor quality print, hard too read. Lettering is very small, and does not line up well with the windows on the wheel. Bad example of a great concept.

The Wheel is exactly what I ordered and arrived on time. The problem with the product is there is a UPC sticker on the back over verbs that are part of the product. If you try an pull off the sticker, the paper comes with it. I am just wondering who would put a sticker on a paper device anyway? Dumb

I bought mine 45 years ago and still have it today. One of the most useful tools you will ever find. Fast, compact and easy to use and organized. I also bought the German one to replace the one I lost of also 45 years and a french one. Glad someone started making them again. Beat a computer everytime.

Small but incredibly useful. Why drag a book around when you have it all on a 10 x 10 carboard? Love it!

I have used similar verb wheel for French repeatedly with ease. The Spanish version is equal in ease of use! It is much easier to carry than the cumbersome Verb book! Print is small but still worth it for a quick and easy reference. Worth ever dollar!

I have used another type wheel for years, but saw this one and thought that it might be good for some of my students. Upon receipt, I found the type on these wheels to be incredibly small. The layout on these is also very poor. I would not recommend them at all.
