Customer Reviews for VEVOR 3/6 Frame Electric Honey Extractor Beekeeping Stainless Steel W/ 3 Legs

I bought Electric Honey Extractor Separator 3 Frame Bee Extractor Stainless Steel , but I think this is Electric Honey Extractor Separator 2 Frame Bee Extractor Stainless Steel It’s ok Reasonable price according to product quality

Nice unit. Easy to put together. Price was good. Delivery time excellent. 6 frames extracted in 2 hours. Had to file legs edges as were very sharp. Overall a good unit.

This was my first time processing honey. I don’t have anything to compare the process to but this was a huge help.

worked great spun out just over 1000 lbs of honey this season. I ended up bolting caster wheel to each leg and that eliminated it walking around while spinning.

I put my last extracted frames from my old extractor back through this one….it’s almost already paid for itself with what was re extracted!!!

We purchased this extractor about a month ago (September 2022) and used it for the first time last week (October 2022). We extracted honey from 4 frames at a time and a total of eight frames were spun for this extraction session. The extractor is very simple to operate but do be careful not to increase the speed too quickly as the unit will begin to wobble due to the different amounts of honey weight on your frames. Nothing to be adjusted as it is just the nature of the honey frame honey volumes. Each load of frames for extraction will be different so increasing the speed very slowly will be required to find the sweet spot to avoid excessive wobble. After extraction was complete, we used a rubber spatula to scrape the excess honey that is below the bottom of the honey gate. By slightly tilting and sticking spatula through the basket to reach the bottom of the barrel, we were able to get about 1 extra pound of honey. For safety - be sure to unplug the unit before reaching in to remove the honey that remains below the honey gate. The unit was pretty easy to assemble but the directions could be more detailed and better illustrations included for the lids. There is a right lid and left lid so when installed and opened can be held upright by magnets that attract to the motor housing. This detail is not included in the assembly instructions so there is a 50/50 chance you will need to reinstall the doors if you do not understand the magnet arrangement. Overall, we are very satisfied with this honey extractor and would recommend to others.

The honey extractor arrived quickly and had all the pieces that assembled pretty well. The motor had a nasty sound until I saw that the protective case had been pushed down and was touching the fan. Once that was corrected it worked good, and very quiet. The two top lids are not centered well but do the job.

This unit is well designed and well built.Pros:*It holds 4 deep frames or 8 medium frames.*The drain comes out of the bottom, (not the side like so many other units) and the bottom slopes toward the drain so you don’t have to invert the extractor to get the last few lbs of honey out.Cons:*The instructions suck (like most Chinese products).*Its a little tight to put frames of honey in it, they could’ve given a bit more room to load heavy frames, empties go in with ease, like in the demo, but who’s ever going to load empty frames.*The packaging is a bit underwhelming the unit arrived in good shape but the box was badly beaten, torn open, taped back together and 1 small nut was missing.*No parts list to identify the normal wearing parts such as the coupling bushing and bottom bearing.

It is a good product for the price, it would be a lot better if the basket had a couple slight modifications and it could extract 8 medium frames radially. It won’t with this basket design without some mods. It is made of cheaper quality materials, but it does work and makes extraction quicker than hand cranking a 2 frame extractor.

Unit arrived as advertised in quick time and in new condition. Legs had sharp edges that were removed easily with a file. The extractor worked perfectly but I feel that the legs may fail over time if the unit is screwed down tight and the frames are out of balance. This is the only minor fault I have. Otherwise very good. Overall I am very happy with the extractor. My wife and I used it and it worked perfectly.
