Need a small extractor in good shape. BTW, anyone ever try the plastic extractor? Pm me. Thanks jimmy
Did anyone answer about using the plastic extractor? Want to know if the Dadant unit was acceptable - can't expect too much for the price.

I have a number of beek friends with extractors and I borrow theirs, so I've used the plastic, two-frame extractor as well as a few others. The plastic one worked fine, but it didn't seem particularly durable. In my opinion, I'd rather save longer and wait until I can buy a better one.
Thanks Indy,I'm still saving also.
You can build a 9 frame radial for cheaper than you can buy the plastic one. I won't post the link to avoid spamming it yet again but I've posted a link to plans in the past that works quite well.
