What size stir bar is included?
Christopher J. Perri on Feb 27, 2020
BEST ANSWER: I bought two of these 6 months apart. I love them and they do a great job. The first stir bar is about 1.25" (with some noise) but the second stir bar is about 1" and I hear basically nothing. It is more than enough in my opinion and I usually stir about 1.6L at a time in a 2L Erlenmeyer flask. Hope this helps.

Works as it should.
I have used it 4 or 5 times and it has worked for me well. I use it to grow yeast in my starters which has worked well for me.

Works but kind of noisy, and fit and finish not so great.
Works as advertised. Functional stir plate for the $$ if you get to brew in your garage or similar where you don't have to listen to it all the time. Mine is on my work desk since I live in an apartment. Was tolerably noisy at first but got very loud after building starters on 2-3 weekends which sort annoys other people in the house. This morning the housing was removed to access the inside, pushed and adjusted some stuff for better balance and less vibration; also lubricated the motor shaft. Now it's back to baseline, maybe even a little improved. I may try to sell it and pay for a better machine if it keeps requiring as much maintenance.

What a great purchase!
I was skeptical about purchasing this as I feared it would be too small for the 5L flask and the bar wouldn’t stay in motion. Glad to say it works perfectly and after a year of use! It also works well with my 2L flask. I might get another in the near future.

Great value, handles 5L
Bought this looking for something to stir a 5L flask. Does the trick pretty well. Might need a larger stirbar but does pretty well with my smaller one. Great value, sturdy, powerful and compact.

Works great
Was having trouble with a different brand that wouldn't spin the stir bar without assistance. This one works great and the know adjuster for speed let's me choose exactly how much stirring I want. Nice and compact too.

Not as described. Small and flimsy
The description says it will support up to 5l flask. However the plate is too small for it to safely sit on top. My 1l flask fits ok but is still wobbly. I would not recommend this. I will try to return.

Says 1000ml on the box. Works fine for my 5L flask
Just received it, and I'm giving it 5 stars. Even though package only says 1000ml, it stirs my 5L flask perfectly. Works all the way on high for a 1in stir bar, but it creates a vortex and stirs everything fine around 1/3 power. Great product and cheaper than most others on the market.

Comes with a 1in stir bar and an extra fuse.

Magnets, how do they work?
I don't know but this plate makes the little bar go whirrrrrrrrr and the yeast starter foam up real good.
