Pros & Cons
Pros
Looks better than the pics, and performs well. Can't beat the price.

The hardest part was cleaning it afterwards and doing the scrape down on the side walls to retain as much honey as possible
Competitiveness

The predrilled hole for the honey gate needed some minor deburring
The handle broke but i got it replaced from the manufacturer
