Which Stainless Tumbler Do You Recommend?

The Lortone QT12 looks good.

What about the "Thumler Model A-R18 Rock Tumbler"? The two 9 lb chambers might be nice to tumble two different groups of cartridges.

I just tried my first batch in my new Lortone QT 12. 200pc .45acp with 4 pounds ss pins. Water filled to about 2 inches above the pins and brass...(not sure if this is properly proportioned but i gave it a whirl anyway) Squirted a shot of dawn dish soap and let er tumbler for 2 hours. Brass came out very clean! Not as shiny as you see on the advertisements but I didn't use any lemishine. Anyway it was very quiet and easy to install. I strongly recommend this product
 
Folks need to get over the Thumler Model B, and consider the Lortone QT-12. It has "only" a 12 pound capacity (to the Thumler Model B's 15), but has a far superior drum sealing method, is slightly less expensive, and is not consistently out of stock.
 
+1 for the Lortone QT-12. I ordered mine because the Thumler Model B was not in stock and it has turned out to be satisfactory.

Trying to buy a Thumler was quite frustrating because stocking issues everywhere. However, having used 1 now for over a year I'm quite satisfied with it and have not had any sealing issues.
