Pros & Cons
Pros
It is quiet and has a strong and durable motor. Very sturdy and heavy duty tumbler. Works great, not loud, and the motor being in front where the air circulates keeps it cooler than if the motor were in the back.
It cranks out 12-15 lbs of tumbled rock per week. The instructions say that it takes a week for the first rough tumble, but it is more like two weeks for rough hard agates.
Be sure to oil the bearings, nylon rollers and the motor regularly. Adjust the belt alignment by bending the motor mount tabs.
Cons
Had less then the allowable weight in tumbler. Turned it off and am working to return the item for a refund. Probably opt for something else. Returned for refund.
Highlights
Quality
I have always wanted this for this is a extremely sturdy well built well known manufacturer and the results are magnificent
High quality machinevery sturdy and correct speed slow for rock polishing
After more than a year and a half of constant use and full loads the machine rolls on with not even a worn drive belt
I bout a chicago electric tumbler first and it stopped working after 2 days
Price
Best for the money in my opinion
The material cost to manufacture this tumbler is minimum but the price to purchase is considerable in my opinion
Shipping
The tumbler arrived and the assembly was easy
It arrived 021624 ayeeee good looking out on the delivery team
Packaging/appearance
This is a large tumbler that makes you want to pack it full of more rocks than it is rated for
