So, I am going to need some sort of trimmer soon, this looks the closest to scissor trimming with the least amount of damage. Does anyone have any experience with these or thoughts? I hate the idea of machine trim but it's just a time issue now. Thanks all.

I wanted one of these: https://youtu.be/9gEvVGxclUU

guy says he can trim a QP in 30-45 minutes. not sure what the amount you're trying to trim is but these tend to go anywhere from $130-200. it uses blades under the grill and that is what cuts the trim leaves off. fans would have to be hand snipped. the machine you have linked uses a vacuum which would have a tearing type of cut and I would think that a vacuum couldn't select between a flower and a sugar leaf and it's main objective is to suck. if it can suck off fans, it's going to suck off other stuff despite claims from manufacturer but then again, I haven't used this or the other trimmer. I just wanted one because I really hate harvesting. plus I'm subscribed now

I bought a "Wander" this year for some light dep, and honestly I feel like it was a waste of money. It is relatively easy to set-up and operate, but I couldn't keep the blade from gunking up every time I buzzed a cola. There is a sped-up video of a guy running through racks on youtube that made it seem as if a good break-down and re-assemble cleaning wasn't needed but every 45 minutes or so. I found myself having to stop and re-adjust things constantly.

I've given it to a couple trimmers to use on outdoor harvest right now, so maybe they'll have some more input at the end of the season or maybe they'll have more patience than me and develop some good techniques for speed cleaning. It does give a better aesthetic than traditional tumble style trimmers, though. I'm 50/50 on it overall, really.

This one might work as well, though it might beat the shit out of the crystals. Not really interested in a tumbler or barrel type.

How fast does it seem folks can trim with the Bonsais? I have heard anything from 1lb every 4 hrs to about the same as scissors just without the fatigue.

I timed myself at the last site. From removing branches, to placing the trimmed buds on the racks, I averaged 4 finished ounces per hour. Some buds are easier to trim, so your mileage may vary.

I stole that quote from Arminius' thread. Seems everybody loves the Bonsai Hero.
