VEVOR 11lbs/5kg Capacity Mini Tumbler Machine with 0-60 Minutes Timer, 5 Speeds Jewelry Rotary Finisher for Surface Polishing Grinding Buffing Gemstones Jewels Coins, Orange+Black, KD-20001

I have many tumblers but this beats them all for the price. When this arrive I opened it and thought no way is this going to be able to tumble the weight advertised. I purchased the smaller one because I didn't think it would work and I would be returning it, but I was shocked because it works great! I loaded it up and it had no issues handling the weight as advertised. It has been running non-stop for two weeks now and no issues. It does not run hot not even warm , it just keeps running. There is one issue! I am running this as a rock tumbler and it works great, but the abrasive material used to tumble turns the inside of the clear plastic drum cloudy and dark, Now I do not find this as an issue because I am not using it as a jewelry tumbler. If it was used to clean only jewelry without abrasives the barrel would stay clean and clear. I just wish the company that makes these would make a tumbling barrel for rocks out of a rubber like material. So if the manufacturer sees this review I want you to know you could make a lot more money if you made a barrel that could be used for rock tumbling. In closing this review I love this tumbler so much I am going to purchase the bigger version.

I bought this for tumbling brass it works great. I don’t know how long it will last but it works great for now. It is well constructed and it’s not loud. You can hear the brass tumbling around but the motor is very quiet. It is very easy to use.

Moderate noise level, but that's to be expected. Very easy to use and it gets the job done.

I have used this several times now and I find this to be fantastic for copper jewelry, I would never get these polished and deburred so well by hand. I have not used it to tumble a lot of heavy items so not sure about that. I have tumbled pendants, bracelets and jump rings. The tumbler eliminates my need to file and buff, such a time and hand saver. I have not tumbled anything more than a couple of hours, so results may be even better over longer periods of time but keep in mind the unit has a 1 hour timer and will shut off so you will need to reset it. I did have some leaking from time to time, until I realized that I could tighten down the 2 metal screws that hold the lid handle in place. I did 1 additional revolution on one side and now the lid is very secure. I add water only and just enough to cover the stainless shot and add in my pieces on low for a bit and work my way up to 3 or 4 as the pieces become work hardened. The stainless shot looks exactly the same as when it arrived, I do rinse, drain and dry them after use. Yes it is loud, not the unit itself, but all the stainless balls tumbling around, I just moved it to another room and close the door (yes I can still hear it, lol)

It’s works good but is difficult to keep clean after every use. The steel shot has to be cleaned and dried in between uses or rust will form. The tank sometimes leaks, more so if you add too much soap I think.

High speed, sealed container, great for polishing objects

I’ve added rubber bands to try to help with the grip but this machine is not great. Regretting not just buying a 300$ one tbh. My 60$ hobby National Geographic tumbler worked about two years, I was hoping this could handle a larger load of jewelry but it can’t. For some reason the design pushes things together so everything gets tangled and doesn’t tumble. So I still have to put a small amount of jewelry in this to get everything to have a nice polish and on top of that it’s now just stripped out and not working. If you’re specifically looking for a jewelry for tumbling, I would recommend that National Geographic one I may re-buy that one. You can’t tumble a lot of stuff, but at least it lasted me two years!

Great for small peaces.

Great item. Works fine. Very unclear instructions.

great product for price, i wouldn't put jewellery in it, good for cleaning other hard casing objects

Product is as described, looks and feels quality.

Broke after 3 months of very light use. Do not bother cheap crap ! DO NOT BUY !!! Terrible item

Works well! No more sharp edges on my glass shards.
