Franklin Arsenal Platinum Tumbler review.

Thought I would ask you guys what you think of my sons review of the Franklin Arsenal Platinum Tumbler.
This is a fantastic tumbler and has done a great job for me. I have done thousands upon thousands of cases with great results.
I originall posted this in the General section then realized this was probably a better place as this might help someone decide on a nice tumbler.
I actually make a guest appearance (the one dumping water in flip flops and shorts) as I am the one that does most of the tumbling/reloading.
He spent a lot of money on his camera a Sony AXD33 so, I hope it works out for him. I am always supportive of his ventures. Im suprised he even has energy to do this stuff as he works anywhere from 72-80 hrs a week.
Maybe you users that have a Youtube account might subscribe if you could for him and add comments if you could for his support if you like the review. He already has more reviews planned (either firearm or reloading related).
 
Nice job with the review - thanks!

I have the Frankford tumbler and am very happy with it. Personally, I use Frankford's brass polish solution and it works great. I also found that when separating media with a few hundred cases in the tumbler, it get's pretty heavy to be shaking into the bucket. I therefore use Frankford's media separator - I've found the bingo wheel like device works great. I also use Frankford's brass dryer, which allows me to dry me brass quickly, 15 to 20 minutes, and move on to my next step in my process.
 
After about 20 uses over 2.5 years usint the cleaner supplied with the unit plus a TBS. of dawn my cases come out with a dull BLACK stain / coating, and require running them through my vibartor case cleaners with crushed walnut . when I run my fingers against the inside they come out looking like I was handling charcoal. AND, no one knows how to contact FA about this problem
