so i was a little hesitant about getting one of these but after watching a few videos on youtube and spending countless back angering hours hunkered over a table trimming i finally bit the bullet.
first off the box it ships in has a picture of the outline of the dome but no description at all so it just looks like a funny UFO from the 50's or possibly a wok lol. at first i was worried but the more i looked at it i realized it didnt matter or give any indication to contents.
it comes with 2 sets of blades. wire set and a thicker sheet metal blade that looks like a mini lawn mower blade. DO NOT use the lawn mower blade lol. did a few dents and dings on the buds but nothing too substantial. i quickly switched out for the wire and it works beautifully. 20-25 cranks and youre done. took longer to snip off the buds in to golf ball sized nugs then it did to trim 2 entire plants(popcorn included).
the trim is nice and fine, ready to be processed depending on your methods. i dont think i will EVER hand trim ever again, this thing works that well. im seriously impressed for my 145 dollar investment. i literally went back and hand trimmed 3-4 buds where it missed a couple small leaves and thats it. the buds are nice and round and WELL manicured. to be honest they look nicer than a lot of my hand trims because i get so frustrated working alone on decent harvests.
here are some shots of it and after effects. i sampled all random buds for the close up and only hand picked one big nug to show how it works on them as well. i didnt look for well trimmed nugs. its all random to show uniformity. as long as it holds up i think this is a solid investment for those fed up with trimming. dont get me wrong i used to like hand trimming.......on my first couple small grows but now that things are going bigger its just a pain in the ass and i hate it. i love this thing. ive got my freedom back. it only took me about 2 min total cranking the machine to do 2 plants. it took about 15-20 to prep them in to fun size nugs.
i guess if i had to rate this thing on a 1-10 scale id give it a 9ish because i dont believe in a perfect 10. there is always something to be improved upon but i have yet to notice it yet. i will be holding on to this UFO shaped bastard for quite some time lol
