“I am not a professional potter.”
That's how most emails we get from people about to buy a wheel begin. You don't need to be. You don't need to be an expert potter to know how much joy it gives you. The Daisy is built for exactly that person.
Smaller than you'd think.
Each wheel's floor space, drawn to scale next to a dining chair. Change the wheels in the comparison above and this updates.

Not £1,349 and then another £200.
Most wheels arrive on their own, and then you find out what else you need. The Daisy comes with the things you'll actually use from the first session.
- Daisy wheel with a 32cm wheelhead300W brushless motor, centres a whole 12.5kg bag of clay
- Hall-effect foot pedalSmooth speed control with no dead spots
- 10-piece batt system with master battLift pots off without squashing them
- Rosewood tool kitThe shaping and trimming tools you'll use first
- Adjustable stoolSit at the right height from day one
You'll still need clay, and a kiln or a local firing service to fire what you make.
Every change came from a customer asking.
Designed by Matt, a marine engineer who spent his career keeping ships' engines running, then improved by the people who throw on it.

Push-button splash pan
Press the button and the pan splits in two. No muddy water on the floor.

Wipe-clean top
One pass with a damp sponge and you're done.

300W brushless motor
Up from 200W, and it now centres 12.5kg. Fully enclosed.

USB-A and USB-C
Keep your phone charged while you follow a tutorial.

Sockets you can reach
Power and pedal plug in at the back corner, not underneath.

Two simple dials
On/off and forward/reverse, so it suits left-handed throwers too.
Start where you are. Keep making.
The Daisy is the one we recommend most for starting at home. But it isn't the only option, and we'd rather you had the right one.

Roughly what's your budget?
Questions people ask before buying
I've never thrown before. Is the Daisy too much wheel?
No. Most people who buy a Daisy tell us they're not potters yet. It's simple to use, two dials and a pedal, and it's built to grow with you so you won't outgrow it quickly.
How big is it, and can I move it?
It takes up 60 × 47cm and weighs 40kg. It's fine to move between rooms with two people; lift it by the body, never by the wheelhead.
What else do I need?
Clay, an apron you don't mind getting muddy, and a way to fire what you make. That can be your own kiln or a local firing service; plenty of pottery classes will fire pieces for a small fee.
How is it delivered?
Free UK delivery, to the kerbside. It's 40kg, so have someone around to help carry it in. We'll email you to book a slot.
What does the warranty cover?
Three years, and we fix it or replace it. It covers manufacturing faults; wear parts like belts can be excluded. Your statutory rights aren't affected. Read the warranty.
What if it's not for me?
You've got 30 days from the day it arrives. If it isn't right, send it back for a full refund.
Ready when you are.
£1,349 with everything you need to throw your first pot. Free UK delivery, 30 days at home to decide, and a 3-year warranty behind it.
Keep making.
