[QUOTE="casper, post: 57520, member: 562"] I have a Turbo Pan and a 14" Garrett Super Sluice. As a newbie I bought the Turbo Pan as a finishing pan for panning off the Sluice concentrates i bought home. Using the Turbo Pan and seeing how it hung onto the gold over time gave me confidence and having now learned how gold behaved i picked up the Garrett again and straight away got better results. My fav pan has become the Garrett simply because i prefer the traditional panning action. In addition the Garrett pan feels better than the Turbo Pan in the hand partly because the Turbo is uncomfortably wide for me. The Garrett is of solid thick construction (not flimsy), good weight and balance and feel, all smooth edges (especially the rim), and finger grip ridges on the outside allow for fatigue free use.... an all round quality tool. The Turbo pan is a good pan and i still use it - but for a satisfying experience it's the Garrett for me. casper [/QUOTE]
