Deepers 6 GS detector

Hello everyone. How does the Deepers 6 GS pulse induction detector compare with other units as to depth; the former is said to be able to easily detect a standard aluminum pop can on its side 26 inches in the ground with the stock coil. I really don't know much about PI dectectors so I'm wondering if that depth is exceptional, average, or below average. Thanks, James
 
Three things to consider here.(1) where you live (2) what you want to do with it (3) coil size.
If you are in the U.S. what would you do re repair/service. Someone posted about six months back that their Deepers did not work from the off. They posted a series of letters between them and the company and it seemed you had to be skilled with a soldering iron and be prepared to get your hands dirty.
I don't question the depth claims, in fact I would think its deeper but don't think its a coin/ring machine more relic only.
Its got a sort of flat-sided ellipse coil which is larger than normal hobby P.I.'s. I think if you put a larger than stock coil on a Deepstar (was there mention of a 15 incher?) then the Deepers 26 inches would not look to special. I recently dug a horse brass (thicker but way less surface area) from the two foot mark with the 11 inch on my Deepstar.
 
My Deepstar picks up a coke can from a much greater distance than 26". If you will search through the messages here, you'll find a thread on this very subject a while back. No one seemed too impressed with this claim...especially if you own a deepstar.
