Before diving more fully into this review, I thought it was important to spend a little time discussing one of the concerns I have about virtually any review I read – who is the person writing the review. Realistically, you have no idea who this person is for the most part, but they are expecting you to trust their opinion. Maybe they are a person who is being paid by a company to promote specific products. Maybe they even work for the company.
You don’t really know, and this makes it difficult to be able to determine whether the information you are receiving is truthful and accurate. I get that.
What I want you to understand is that I work for no one associated with any of the products I am discussing in this review. I am just a gun enthusiast, who loves to hunt and compete in shooting contests, and so I have a lot of knowledge and experience with the products associated with creating my own ammunition. It’s why I started writing reviews like this, and even have a couple more on the market related to other products related to reloading. This is just something I wanted to do to share what I know.

This is an extremely durable tumbler, which has a great deal of finesse to it as well. I was surprised that I not only could use it to clean brass cartridges, but it also worked effectively on rocks, and I was able to deburr and polish my wife’s brass jewelry in the tumbler. It was pretty remarkable that way.
It contains an 18gauge steel motor housing area, plus a polyurethene drum and lid assuring you that you were going to get a durable product. The base has rubber feet mounted that gives you a great deal of stability and you were able to set the tumbler settings for either fine, medium, or coarse. That was truly a nice touch.
If there was one thing that I found that I was a bit dissatisfied with, it was the actual height of this product. It is slightly over 18 inches, which makes storage a little more complicated. However, that was a small price to pay for such an outstanding product.
