My friend has a very similar unit made by DABPRESS and it works great. They all work pretty much the same just different design & capacity. I'd say go for it!
The one huge benefit from these machines I've noticed is you will get less green plant material in your sift compared to using a single screen on a trim bin or similar.
I can only vouch for the dabpress unit personally but he was getting some really nice looking almost white kief from his dry trim.

Expensive for what it does but I’m sure it will work. You can easily build you own simple sifting screens for under $50 in materials. You just lightly bounce the material on the screen; no power or motorized rotor mechanism needed. It’s your money…

Thanks guys much appreciated, i think I'll go for it.
I was planning on building one but the cost is starting spiral to the point where I'm maybe better just buying a quality one.
A couple of nights back I put a bag of trim into a bucket and put a 150 micron screen over it then fixed it with a bungee cord
I then used it like a huge salt shaker over a plastic sheet, it's the easiest way to dry sift I've found.

Ive had the bubble magic 500 for about 4 years now. only use it maybe one or two times a year. But as simple as it is, it works great.

And some real pictures would be awesome if you don't mind. I'm guessing the bags are used in the drum?

It sounds more efficient than the bubble bags. Ultimately I'm pressing this.

Tbh mate it's a different league for flavour, it's concentrated bud flavour you're smoking.

My screen is a 150, I also bought 90 and 120 but I've not used them yet.
I'm more than happy with what I'm getting with the 150 micron, it's hassle free and a treat to smoke.
I've found I'm best doing a number of short runs to get the various grades, you'll see it getting progressively darker.

@tyler.durden you've used one similar. And it looked great. Would you like anything different?
@tyler.durden is the one who got me started on it LOL

Star Dog is right about the tumbling times. Sure, you can change micron size bags, but I generally don't as that's a pita. Instead, for A grade I tumble a 120 micron for 20 minutes or less. It is super light blonde/gold with no green plant matter. I sell the A grade after pressing it into pucks. It's attractive, because it is one concentrate that requires no solvents or chemicals to extract, and you can't buy it at local dispensaries. B grade is the same plant matter just started at the 20-45 minute mark, it is slightly darker and I keep this for personal smoking. C grade is anything you can get after that. I generally don't bother with this, or put it in my butter for baking. Although some machines can be set to tumble quickly, it is advised to tumble super slowly to get the highest quality product. Happy Tumbling!
