Will it shuffle only one deck at a time or do you have to insert two decks for it to operate?

It will do either one deck of cards or two deck of cards and works well either way,enjoy.

The one I got was no good it shuffled the cards out the wrong way , didn't shuffle them inward. A piece of junk imported from China !

Yes, the shuffled can shuffle 2 decks at the same time, but, of course, the decks will be shuffled in together.

We have used it for various amounts of cards and it worked well with all of them. Once in a while while shuffling, a card will flip on its edge but it still completes the shuffle.

The shuffler is calibrated to shuffle only standard decks of playing cards (2.5"x3.5"). Thank you!

Place the handle in the appropriate place. Put equal number of cards on either side of the shuffler. Turn the handle slowly at first and then moderately fast. I find that sometimes if I turn the handle slightly in the opposite direction first, it turns more smoothly.

Install the batteries (I think they were "C" batteries) Not sure because I gave the shuffler as a gift and I don't have one in front of me to look at. Then you place half the cards on the top of the shuffler, half on the left side and half on the right side of the. To shuffle the cards, press down on the lever at the bottom of the shuffler. To remove the cards, pull out on the lever. I tested the shuffler with 2 decks of cards only and it worked perfectly. I am not sure how it works with 3 or more decks of cards. Hope this helps.

We use it to shuffle 6 decks for our card game. Works like a champ. Since a person pushes the lever to shuffle card, it ahould be fine with one deck or more.

It does not do the "perfect shuffle" as one side always seems to be left with 2 to 4 cards to be shuffled. This is due to the location of the one side's driving gear, as it is not necessarily in sync with the other side's driving gear position. If you are looking for the "perfect shuffle", you would probably have to spend a lot more money for a shuffling card device to meet your criteria. I would still recommend this device as it suits my purpose for shuffling multiple card decks at a reasonable price. Hope this provides some insight to your question.

Never tried it with just one, but I'd bet it would work; you might have to adjust the number of cards you get per hand until you get to a point where you feel it is "balanced" (probably one more card per hand than two-person game)

Two decks of cards at one time seem to work well. If you need to shuffle more than that, it would probably be good to split them up when sending them through. I really like this shuffler as it does not run on batteries but is easy to manage with the manual crank. Just in case the crank breaks, a second one is provided under the machine.

It only shuffles the cards once and then you have to take the cards out of the middle and then separate the cards into two piles and repeat the shuffling process if you need the cards to be shuffled more than once

Yes it will shuffle. When the player is on, press pause (power on/off) button, then NEXT button, the player will be in random play mode. To get it out of random mode press pause then the previous button and it will go back to in order play.

I usually use 5 decks of cards, but don't see any issues with shuffling fewer decks.

Yes. It shuffles 6 decks very nicely. Your cards will last forever, it seems like, if you don't bend them shuffling them by hand.jo

It was a gift for my daughter but when testing it before I gave it to her it seemed to shuffle very well with just 1 shuffle.

You can only have 2 decks total connected at once. Because there are only two ins and two outs for decks. (Main in and out on the front is not for decks) For what you are describing you want the Audio 10.

We have had occasion to shuffle only two decks. It does that, missing a couple now and then. Advertisement is that it will shuffle six decks. There's room to do that in the shuffler; but as I said, we haven't tried it. We have noticed that the more cards the better.

You would have to seperate the decks by hand, and don't use shuffler any more if you want them kept seperate.
