I am in need of this last piece of equipment to start reloading!! Can anyone recommend a GOOD tumbler that will give me many years of use?

A definate necessity for reloading
I have a Frankfort Arsenal tumbler that works well.
I am sure anything from any major manufacturer will clean brass for a long time.

Midway has a lot of Frankford Arsenal products on sale currently. Their tumbler kit is on sale for $54.99. I had been using one of theirs for about 10 years now.........

Sounds like a good deal guys. I had been leaning towards the FA package but wanted some first-hand experience reviews before making the plunge.

I forgot to add that I have been using it for over 10 years with no problems.

I'v been usinf a Midway for years. Trouble free. Low cost. Gets the job done.

When I first started to reload five or six years ago the person I learned from had been using a Thumler's Tumbler for over twenty years. I also bought one about five years ago, model B I believe. The company is in the US and it is mostly used to tumble rock and jewelry related items. I found it to me much quieter than the vibrating tumblers.

+1 on the Thumler's. Trouble free, good capacity, and really quiet.

I've got in excess of 15yrs on a Frankford (back when they labeled them for Midway) and still going strong. I tumble a lot of brass at a time, and never have had a problem.

I've been using a lyman for 10 years too. I only load a few hundred rounds per year too.
