Awesome for the price!

Great product -Great price.

Missing wing nuts and the glue on the low v is all over with a nice gap for stuff to get hung up on. I also sliced my finger lol. Worked well on my first time out definitely needs some modifications!

Bad and awesome.

As mentioned in other reviews edges had some burs. A file and 15 minutes took care of the burs. It took longer to get the blue plastic rap off. Manual does not include the size of nuts/bolts. That's ok I plan on replacing the bolts on the sides with bolts/wingnuts/lock washers and having a supply of extras when I misplace/lose any. The unit is in three sections, the feed (with flare) then two sections, each with riffles, angled mesh, miners moss and carpet. Feed section has about a 1/2 inch lip to get to the 2nd sections riffles, mesh, moss and carpet. Not sure if this is going to be an issue or not. Section 2 to 3 had a gap of 1/4 to 1/2 inch. I expanded the holes in the carpet,mesh to try and close the gap, again not sure if this is an issue or not. It came with a carry strap and a bag but I got rid of both as when folded it fits in a 5 gallon bucket. It looks to be sturdy enough for my needs.

One of these units is fine if you just want to prospect and have some fun. But if you want to make real profit you are going to have to upsize. In the photo are 3 units which make a flare sluice 18" wide and 8 feet long. Anyone who makes new for profit knows a flare sluice is the most efficient design for catching all gold, even the ultra fine stuff. My unit still needs more miners moss, but what you see is what came in the boxes and nothing more. You'll pay a thousand bucks for the "Hog" version available online. This one cost me less than $220.00. Since miners moss cannot be beat for efficiency, I'm already ahead of the game. This unit will soon become a highbanker able to also adapt to a dredge pump.

It's not so easy to put together when it is missing pieces! This item required a trip to the hardware store in order to put together as it was missing some of the hardware. It is a good thing I attempted a preassembly at home before I went out to the field as the hardware store would have been over 2 hours away! It would sure be nice if there was better quality control when it comes to these products. Making sure the buyer has what they need in order to use it without making any special trips is paramount to a satisfied buyer.

I wish I could say this product just produces gold left and right but unfortunately I must’ve been in a dry creek I did get some flakes out but unfortunately was not successful in my goal journey but the machine itself works great
