Not as described
The product description says it has a 360W motor, it is wrong! The motor on the one I got is only 250W. It works OK as I only use it for sieving compost, but buyers need to know what they are getting.

Much easier than shaking sieve
I bought this product to grade some soil for a raised bed, I'm digging out for a patio and decided to use the soil for growing some veg.
The box it came in is massive and it's not easy to get out on your own, however once it's out it's great for keeping the kids amused.
It works well but only on loose soil, big hard dry clumps of clay come out the end as big hard dry clumps of clay. I went over the ground with the rotovater first and it was more effective.
My first criticism is that for the price it should have come with plastic caps for the tube that form the framework, bearing in mind it sits in a pile of soil, I don't think it would take long to rust the tubes. (I bought some plastic caps and waxoiled the inside of the tubes)
My second criticism is that you can't catch all the soil in a wheel barrow, a good amount will end up on the floor, whether it's from the loading end, the sieved soil or the tailings end.
My third criticism is that it should have come with Nyloc nuts for the wheels.
Other than my 3 criticisms, I think it is a good piece of kit and as the title says it's easier than shaking a garden sieve.

Amazing
Needed to sort a lot of soil and I couldn’t keep up with it! Really good at what it does and helped me reduce job time and the need for waste disposal. Loads of top soil!

Build quality suspect!
It's a good machine but when it arrived the motor would not turn so I took off the two end plates and found that the belt driving the drum was wedged underneath the drum rolling wheel. Once this was freed, the machine worked ok. This must have occurred whilst it was being built and should have given a QC fault. Whilst the covers were off I noticed that the two drive belts were touching each other so I moved the motor one further along the shaft - hope it stays there, if not they will wear out soon. Having said that, it seems to be a good piece of kit.

Can this be used to sieve soil out of Gravel
so I can return gravel back to the ground
Asked by: DodgerJob
Hi,
This machines intended use is to sift bits of stone/gravel etc out of soil not the other way around as more stones/gravel in the drum damage the inner mesh.

One review mentioned the inner mesh is not suitable for compost, can this be clarified, why not ?. What is the mesh hole diameter for inner mesh and for outer mesh. Wanting to use this for sieving compost from compost bins, will this be suitable.
Is there one that runs on petrol
