The turbo pan??

Any body have one and what's our thought on it. Does it feel heavy like the garret ones that feel "indestructible"

I don't own one but have seen one being demo-ed at a gold show.
Neat pan and seemed good quality but IMHO it's a gimmick.
It will probably work but why need it? A regular old gold pan does a fine job and has been used since gold prospecting started.
If you look around the world you'll see people with simple wooden or metal bowls with no riffles at all.
I just don't think it's needed and feel its someone else reinventing the wheel.
But what do I know, just an opinion

Oh ok , I was just wondering peoples thoughts on them that have used one. I love my blue 12 inch Keene pan, used in combination with my 14inch green Garrett gold pan. The big green to pan dirt down fast then transfer into the blue to finish.

I have tried one and it was harder ...for me..to use then my fav, the Garret gravity trap pans.

My friend has one, now two. He really likes it, to me it seemed harder on the back.
