My daughter seems happy with it.
Quite noisey as you would expect. Easy to use.

Good started tumbler
Purchased as a Christmas gift. For my granddaughter all ready she is asking for a bigger one. The stone capacity is small so on reflection I should have gone for a bigger one. But it does what it says on the tin.

Doesn’t rotate unless you add a rubber band or similar.
The surface of the tumbler is too smooth therefore no friction to turn it against the motor. We added a rubber band, which then snapped and got caught in the motor, so then added a line of superglue. Great product otherwise but big design flaw.

Great tool for geology fans...
This requires patience, a separate room and brute strength! Let me start with the positives. Your boring, dusty rocks will be transformed into beautiful, shiny rocks in a variety of colours perfect for jewellery making and gifting to friends. It isn't a quick activity; a full cycle will take a month to reach the finished product. The tub is incredibly difficult to open; children won't be able to do this on their own. It is NOISY. The rock holder crashes the stones around and there is no let up, the further into the gritting process, the louder it gets and I mean LOUD. We had to keep it in the utility room and could still hear it upstairs. All in all, a great gift, just remember to eat your spinach and buy ear plugs alongside it! We have multiple additional packs of stones but will give it a break in between the next batch!

After a few uses it does not work
The tumbler won’t turn at all after using it a handful of times. Very disappointing and I would like to return it

I've followed the instructions to the letter
This is a good idea BUT it stopped spinning on me several times. I just gave it a wee spin and it was away again . My daughter is watching what is happening to the stones very carefully. I hope it doesn't disappoint her
