Buying from Urban Tufting

Urban Tufting covers everything a beginner rug tufter needs in one place, from a $289.99 starter kit to cut-and-loop guns, frames, spare needles, and dozens of yarn colors. The big caution is that its shipping, return, and warranty pages didn't show any actual policy text when we checked, so get those terms in writing from the store before buying a $250+ tufting gun. Pay with a card that offers purchase protection.
