So far, this has been a really great tumbler and runs perfectly. I like the timers and speed settings. The tumbler is as quiet as a rock tumbler can be, which if you've ever had one, you know they do make some noise. The company sent extra belts free of charge, instructions for how to get the extra belts included in the kit! The instructions were good and the tumbler is easier to open than my older tumbler as the barrel is soft and bendable. No leaks and handles 3/4 full load of rocks and grit with no problem. I'm through with my 2nd round and the tumbled rocks look good so far. I did not use the rocks that came with the tumbler as I have a bunch of my own already but there was a good selection included with this tumbler. I'm also not using the grit that came with the tumbler as I use a higher grade purchased from another company that has aluminum oxide 500 for the 3rd step rather than silicon carbide that's included with this tumbler. Overall, I'd recommend this tumbler as a good starter tumbler for adults or children interested in the wonderful world of rock tumbling! Read more

Great little rock tumbler, very quiet. Arrived quickly. Came with extra belts and some supplies. Read more

On maximum speed (3)the rubber ends of the tumbler rub against the plastic washers and make a considerable noise. Solution is to turn the drum around. So far so good. Read more

I bought this for my teenaged daughter for Christmas and she loves it! It comes with some interesting rocks and packages of the different "tumbling grits". As with all tumblers, it is a multi-week process using finer and finer grits to smooth the rocks. Her's turned out very smooth and nice. They weren't shiny, but rubbing with a drop of mineral oil and they looked great. The machine seems pretty durable. It doesn't move around while its running. Since the drum is made of thick rubber rather than plastic, it is much quieter than I expected. I had heard stories about other tumblers and people putting them in their garage because they were noisy. While you wouldn't want to put it beside your bed, when it was in another room the sound was muted and it was fine. When we put it in the basement, you couldn't hear it at all. It really depends on what you are tumbling. The larger rocks obviously make more noise. We're now tumbling some broken colored glass pieces in beach sand to make "sea glass" and it makes very little noise. All around, it seems to be a good machine and the customer service people have reached out to us to see how things are going and offer assistance. We haven't needed any assistance, its been working fine. Read more

Really simple easy to use, spare belts and everything you need to start. Check what stone you put in I had one disintegrate that I found in the bush. I recommend buying a bigger strainer. Read more
