Great item but tighten up all nuts internally before use.

This honey extractor has the same issue like all extractors they can wobble around a fair bit when the honey frames are unbalanced. Just need fixing in place so they do not 'walk' across the floor when trying to extract honey. If the RPM could be slightly higher would make for a more timely extraction but gets the job done.

Works well as an extractor once you have stabilised it. The supplied legs are useless and cannot dampen the vibration of extracting. If you can change to stiffer legs it is a good working extractor for the price. Also make the new legs longer as original is too low to put a pail under with a strainer.

Neat and tidy once you get set up. It is tricky to clean up and replace the spindle in the correct position so you don't scrub out the rubber stoppers but once you know it is ok. No different to another of these i have used. So this one is great for the price.

As in the title. Works well, movable, minimal vibration (not bolted to anything). Increase rpm gradually. Not easy to clean, but none of them are, so relying mainly on self-preservation powers of residual honey and wax. Good product for an amateur beekeeper with 1 to 2 supers.

I've been waiting to do this review as I wanted to have used it a couple times first. I bought this extractor in Feb '24 and have used it 3 times. I was slightly concerned with some of the more negative comments, however, with that in mind decided to give this machine a try. Firstly, I am a hobbyist beekeeper and only do extractions about 2-3 times per year depending on flow. I have used the machine 3 times since Feb and extracted around 30+ frames of honey. The extractor is easy to use and does a very good job. The legs are a bit light and can cause more wobble than necessary, but I bolted the bases of the legs (they have holes cut out for this purpose) to a triangle of plywood and that firmed everything up. I attached locking castors to the bottom to easily move it around my shed. Also, you need to use your head a bit and think about using frames that feel close in weight to minimize the wobble at the start of extraction. If that isn't possible, go slow until the frames gradually become equal as the honey gets extracted, then speed up further. It is a bit of a "feel" thing, hard to explain, but easy to experience. The comments on having the honey gate too high are accurate, but with the legs locked into the plywood base you can easily tip the machine a bit to get the last of the honey out. But, this would be a good design improvement, if they made the honey gate lower. The motor is smooth and and works well. It did a great job of extracting the honey and supporting the frames during the process. It's all stainless steel and easy to clean. I take off the motor and pull out the baskets to clean everything after the extraction and it is quite simple to do (once you've done it for the first time). Beware, there is a ball bearing in the bottom center cup that the basket rod fits into, so if you turn the extractor over completely to get out any last water, that bearing can/will fall out. Just plunk it back in, reassemble and you're good to go. I also bought some food grade grease for the bearing maintenance. Overall, I am super happy with the extractor and it fits well for hobbyists.

Extractor works well, easy to assemble and use. A reverse function would be great on it but it doesn’t take much effort to flip the frames. The legs are a little flimsy but I just used the lower setting on them to reduce any movement. I would recommend this product to any backyard beekeepers

I can Recommend this extractor. It is easy to put together well balanced. Works well. .......... .

For the price we really liked this product, once we secured the legs it worked wonderfully. It's a great unit for a small at home hobby, I doubt it would be useful for larger scale beekeeping though.

Great product and quality. Timely delivery. Website east to use and navigate. Will buy from Vevor again.
