Nothing Catches the Fine Gold Like a Gold Genie
by Dave in Canyonville, OR, USA -
I met Dave, Terrys husband, at the Tacoma Gold Show around 1989. Being miners themselves, they started the business together in Canyonville Oregon. I had a half coffee can of beach black sand that ran over 50 colors per teaspoon. Not Camel, Desert Fox, or any of the other salesmen would show me that their machines could get that flour gold out of the beach sand. I found out later that because of their curved edges on their wheels, that the flour gold would wash out. The sharp edges on the Gold Genie would catch the flour gold. But Dave said Sure! And he put the demonstration material in a gold pan and ran my beach sand through the Gold Genie. The sand was from Nas Whidbey Island WA, where I was stationed at the time. I watched in amazement as the Genie got over a Pennyweight of flour out of the sand. Dave let me use the gold as a down payment on buying a Gold Genie, and he let me pay for the Genie at 85 of spot, which made it very easy for me to buy my first Genie on a Sailors salary. Now I have three of them, and I have NEVER found anything that will catch the fine gold like a Gold Genie.

GOLD GENIE- was owned and hand built by my family. Every gold genie we built was inspected and tested for the most excellent craftsmanship for a wonderful mining experience.

Replaced 20 plus year old genie!
by GAT in Oregon -
I bought a Gold Genie in the mid/late 80's and used it hard. Never had a problem, and it worked great. I just received my new MINER model and couldn't be happier! The new stand is awesome and better for working with it in the field. Great construction of the stand. The motor was a bit loud so I e-mailed and called the factory and asked about it. They were great! I got immediate response on e-mail but called them before I read it or knew I had a reply. They told me if I was unhappy they would exchange for a new one. After running the motor a bit the sound went away so it must have been just some dried grease that needed to spread back out inside the housing. To hear my satisfaction was the key. A great product, a great price, with great service.

Old Gold Genie
by Golddiggerjoe in oregon -
I purchased a used gold genie at a yard sale for $40. What a deal! I obviously didn't know that they had the top model. I could use a new spray bar. The old one is pvc painted gold and haphazardly drilled. It works great. A new water bar is smaller which makes it easier to feed. Next I need the feeder, but I don't think I'll get lucky and find one at a yard sale.

Worth the money
by Bob G. in Pahrump, NV -
The gold genie I got from goldfeverprospecting worked perfectly right out of the box. I had to tweak a few settings and definitely had to classify my material but it works really well. Saved me a lot of time and back pain for sure. I found the desert fox machine to be too small and slow - the larger gold genie works much better.

Me Too
by Jeff in Boise ,Idaho -
I also purchased a Gold Genie Pan from Goldfever with the same results: what a ripoff this really is! A bad product and a poor company to deal with. I will not be buying any more gold genie products until ther qualty control improves and they stand behind there products. I'm another unhappy customer. Like the other review says: "look before you buy!!!"

WOW!!!!
by Rick in Richland,WA -
I ordered a Gold Genie spiral pan from Goldfever prospecting and recieved a defective pan with cracks and deep goughes in the spirals. After I complained about the defects, the seller said that "Gold Genie said there was no problem without inspecting the pan, it will catch black sands and gold together in the gouges instead of seperating them." And they said, "they will not replace my spiral pan." That is extremely bad customer service and a very bad product. If you are going to purchase one, make sure that you look at it before you purchase it. They do not stand behind their products. I mean JUNK!!!

I Love It
by Jaimie in Gold Hill Oregon -
I bought a Gold Genie after looking at several of the smaller cheaper wheels that come in a nice little box, and the Gold Genie wheels are built so much better. This is the first gold wheel I have owned, and it only took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to use it. They really are a snap to set up and takes all the work out of panning. I am very pleased with my purchase and would recommend this to any one that produces a lot of concentrates from dredging. The fine gold recovery is amazing.
