JOANLAB MS3 Magnetic Stirrer Mixer Lab Stir Plate

I bought this to mix various solutions and coral food I use routinely in the reef aquarium hobby. It works great and is a lot faster and more fun than mixing manually. My kids, in particular, love watching it work which has provided me with great opportunities to teach them about water chemistry, etc. Highly recommend.

Bought this unit after returning a competitor model that ceased working after only 9/10 uses. So far this model has performed well after 9 or 10 uses. A little noisy (hum) when compared to previous model bought but still working well. Fingers crossed.

Simple and straight forward this works great when I put the magnetic pellet in a decanter and “spin” my wines. Opens them up quickly and allows them to aerate and breathe so even young wines are approachable. Novel way to use this device but works perfectly! Cheers!

We got this because my son and I are lazy and don't like to mix our beverages with a spoon. But with that said it does a good job at it. The magnets inside the device could be stronger, but overall it gets the job done.

[New] The seller did reach out and assisted with my issues. Good customer service. [OLD] I bought this for its small size but its not usable. Half the time it doesn't move the bar and when it goes, the bar gets flung off the plate. (which the bar is now lost). It sounds like its off balance as when its on, its louder than it should be.

This is not a temperatures controlled unit. And when I ordered it I wasn’t looking for that. This is a really good mag mixer. It works better than my heated ones. Highly recommend it.

I purchased this stirrer for my oldest adult son. He’s a double quadruple amputee, a result of an unfortunate set of circumstances with a wood chipper. One thing he did not lose though is his love of coffee. Unfortunately, he was in noble to stir his coffee. This stirrer makes the us ask seem effortless to him. And he’ll sit there for hours watching it stir as he tries to figure out how to turn it off and pick up the cup when alone. Highly recommend.

Lasted 5 years with only intermittent use. Definitely not for lab use. Will not buy it again. Update Since its past the warranty, I opened it up and checked the components - it is the cheap motor speed control unit that failed The circuit is missing a self recovery fuse and clearly made as cheaply as possible.

Great little stirrer for a kitchen or small lab, I use it to mix light marinades and drinks, works well and is simple to use. A magnetic stirrer bar is included but buying a small set would be useful. This is not a powerful appliance and is only for light mixing.

used it for one time only till now.. so, no longevity feedback yet at least. in that one time it performed great, it was on for about 4 hours continious, very quite and effective. I used it to desolve shelac in alchol for woodworking... , so no high viscosity stuff as such... it pretty much reduced a 48 hours job .. to almost 1 hour only!.

I got two a big model and a small one. The small one is not that great. I am not happy with it. Performance wise. I wanted to return and get the bigger one but they are going to charge me about 8 $ for return. So I wasted my money on the smaller model. I won't suggest you getting the small one performance suck even on just 1000ml of liquid culture. The seller refunded me

The magnetic mixer works well in brewing or in nutrient mixes for my plants and herbs.
