This is a great little spinner. The gears are ratioed just right. Because it is a 3 frame spinner it does get off balance easily, but with proper care things worked great. I did lift the spinner off the ground to prevent the legs from walking the spinner all over the place. or you can mount it to a large sheet of plywood. Wish the lids actually attached, and wish the honey valve was actually put together correctly. But other than those, it worked just as good as my 8 frame spinner i had for $400.
