Thinking of getting one. Can anyone comment on how well or not well they perform.
Thanks.

Any detector is just as good as the operator. All machines will find STUFF if you take time to learn it. Good luck and HH

I just got back from the beach with my beach hunter. Works well. Hits on my wedding band at 12 inches in wet sand. Unfortunately the beaches were heavily sanded . It does get fooled by small bits of iron on SC beaches. In the water it falses quite a bit if you run it in all metal. Not trying to discourage you. Just my observations. I like the machine as it is pretty easy to learn and the price is much better than the minelab Excalibur. I picked mine up on Craig's list for under 400.00. I couldn't justify the price of an Excalibur since I only get to the beach 4 or 5 times a year. The BH does offer tone ID in discriminate and in all metal it can ID using led lights on the control box.

Maybe a second hand machine could be an option? That's what I did, I love my Excalibur, I bought it second hand it's served me well......

I have one and this is what I find. It's all in the settings on this machine. If you get it set up just right it RUNS HOT really hot. It amazes me the things it will pick up. It's a machine that you just have to work with to get it with it's best settings.
