Purchasing an automatic shuffler may take some research, but you should be able to find a wide variety of models, some with unique and creative designs Most are made of plastic, although classier wooden models are also available. Most units range in price from $10 to $40, depending on the shuffler's design and the number of decks that it can accommodate.
Automatic card shufflers don't all work in the same way, but most units have two feeder trays. Each tray has its own motor, for which most units require C or AA batteries; some are manually operated, using a crank. Cards are typically shuffled from the trays into the card catching drawer. Simply slide out the drawer, and start dealing that freshly shuffled deck.
