It dose give you depth reading.. If you look at the sensitivity meter when you go over a target. The bars will all light up if it's deep and show less bars for shallower targets.

Great idea for a video series! For the person or youngster just getting into detecting, with limited funds. Most reviews concentrate on detectors in the 2 to 3 hundred dollar range as a beginner detector, I'm looking forward to the rest of the reviews!

Thank you for doing reviews on affordable detectors I've been wanting to get into the hobby.

Thank you Jason for doing this series of video content!!! This is exactly what I was looking for!!! This is very helpful. Looking forward to the others! 🤗🤩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I just bought this metal detector for me and my young sons to give us something to do together, but while I am fascinated with the KZread videos of people using detectors, I honestly never knew how to really use one myself.....until now. Your video was awesome to say the least! I at least have enough info to get out there and find some goodies with my little boys, and for what it is worth, you now have a new subscriber! Thank you very much for the lesson!

You did it again Quarter Hoarder! I love watching your videos to see the relics, old home sites, and to see you and your team dig. I seriously love this idea where you test different low price metal detectors, which is right in the ball park for a lot of your viewers! I would love to get a metal detector one day! I have been watching Columbo all of the time. Your pup reminds me of his hound dog. You have one of those personalities like Columbo, too. If I don’t talk to you, I hope that you have a wonderful, blessed holiday season. I have this theory that COVID will disappear on New Year’s Day ( I know it probably won’t happen, but I will pray!)

What a great idea for a series, Jason!

Thanks for this. I bought one last week( Amazon’s choice) as a starter and found this video looking for an explanation on how to use it. The directions aren’t very clear, at least for a beginner like me. It makes much more sense after watching this. Great job and glad you didn’t totally trash it! Subscribed.

Well done on the review. I like the idea for this series and look forward to seeing more beginner machines. Hopefully I can talk my daughter into detecting with me

Great series. Thanks for doing the research so I can narrow the selection down to a couple candidates.

Thank you for making this video. I am 63 and my husband died a few years ago. And I have always want to do metal detecting. But just don't have the money, well anyway I told my children that's what I wanted for Christmas. Will send them your video.

Good review, looking forward to the next.

Thank you for this video & others to follow. I have been looking to update & love the explanation & testing you do. These instructional/testing videos will be done in time for us to make a decision by spring. Happy hunting from SW Kansas.

Great video.. love all the information and detail you gave!! Great review

Excellent review. Looks like a decent machine for the price. Looking forward to the next review.

Looking forward to the next machine, Thanks Jason

Very helpful, I just got one of these my first metal detector so far and this video broke it down for me and made it very simple

Thank you I think the following reviews will help out many people

Thanks for the ricomax metal detector review. Seems like a good entry metal detector!

Great idea for some videos. Merry Christmas brother hope everyone stays safe .

Very good. This is a great help. Easy to understand. Many thanks

I bought a Dr. Otek MT-XR off of Amazon about a year ago and have been happy with it. They run a little over $100 but sometimes are on sale for even less.

Wow QH, looking forward to seeing which of these machines stand out for that price range. This question comes up in about every FB group I'm in so lets help some folks out with a better answer for what's the best entry level detector. Thanks for doing this Jason!

Great video friend!! I just got one GC-1037!!! Tucson, Az.

I just bought this after watching your videos and am about to get into detecting myself for a buddy that’s gunna go with me hope we can find some stuff one day I’ll work my way up to a machine like yours

Very nice feature coming to Quarterhoarder. Not bad for a starting machine. Good work Jason.

Thank you for doing this!

amazing series, very useful thank you very much.

I got this one for my birthday last August and haven’t used it yet, but will be at the end of April for the first time! I can’t wait! #goinswinging

awesome video for us starting or on a lower budget. Bringing it back to white belt status.

Thanks for the info 👍

Hope those weren't new batteries! dropped to two bars in seconds.

Interesting, cool, and informative.

I had the privilege of testing Kellyco’s Striker z60 this past week. It works great too! I found a silver ring with it too! Enjoyed watching.

Great information

Very surprised that it has a VDI display. Not too shabby build. 👍👍👍👍👍

Nice idea!

Great video and detector beginner's. Definitely affordable. Thanks for sharing. *Chris*

I just got this as a gift bc i am interested in metal detecting. This video wad very helpful but I am also sad about the lack of a depth indicator!! Oh well. At least I can use this to decide if I'm into it enough to upgrade.

Great idea

Looks like a great machine for tot lots 👌🏼

nice vid, and a great idea. thank you QH

Cool video idea...Get young people interested in something except video games......I found a fatty 1859 indian penny this past weekend and was stoked....That's what keeps me going...👍

I have a 4 year old grandchild that is ready to start detecting. She watches your videos constantly and is eat up with the detecting bug. I've already purchased a minelab go find detector for another grandchild and none here are impressed with it. This will be a good series. Hopefully there is a few in the bunch a child can carry. ATB

Thank you! Great video! Q? What sensitivy were you on when you tested the depth?

Sweet brother

Best bang for the buck for beginner...Bounty hunter land ranger pro..that was my first ..pulled alot of goodies...just sayin :)

Awesome video thanks for sharing can't wait for the next review. .And do you have to them back or can you have a giveaway?

This is going to be a great series. I just purchased a Bounty Hunter Time Ranger for my son. I know it is above your 187.00 @229.00, but I wonder how it would do under your expertise scrutiny? Looking forward to the rest of the series and keep the awesome videos coming!

These detectors have depth readings. Other than that, good review.

Thank you Sir for the videos , I need your recomendation for what unit to use for atleast 20 feet deep for treasure. God Bless.

So, what is your recommendation among the 15 or so entry-level detectors you tested? I was ready to pick up the ricomax, but like you think a depth indicator would be nice.

That’s great. Can we buy them after?

Fantastic series. I will not miss an episode for sure. Please make a play list when you are done for the forgetful of us Jason.

I've been wanting a series just like this! Would this detector work with gold? I've noticed a lot of the models don't mention gold on the list of findables. Thanks for the great info!!!

I tested mine on my ring and it picked it up.

So it of the beginner models you have reviews what one would you recommend the most?

That half dollar should have blown your ears off Jason. Great idea for a video series. HH and be well

Ohh maybe a giveaway on the ones you don’t want I could use one I have the Efm swarm bought used but having fun

My first machine was whites it was only $55 and was gold I bought it in the 70s I was only 12 14 years old and I found tons of stuff lot of coins glad and silver a few rings I had a blast with that when I was a kid but it sure would dig deeper than 8 inches

Cool but it doesn’t come with a instruction booklet now I’m stumped on how to set it for gold detecting

I’m trying to find a metal detector or pinpointer than coin alert me when there’s a silver quarter mixed in with about 100 clad quarters when spread out on a table. Do you have any suggestions?

Half dollar was probably overloading the coil. I bet if you tried it again 4-6" above the coin it would beep every time you swing over it.

Or there was iron beneath the bricks, and it disced it out.

Has anyone tried this on wet or damp ocean sand?

Maybe over a manhole cover,AWESOME, AWESOME 👌, THAT'S FUNNY

Great idea! What are your plans for the future of these bargain detectors? I have a co-worker who has a 10-year old son who is currently obsessed with watching metal detecting videos, including your channel. She is a respiratory therapist and would never ask for anything, but I know she is on a tight budget being a single mom. If you find yourself with an extra budget detector, let me know!!

Thinking about buying a AT Pro, what d ok you think of it and who has the best package deal or should I get The AT MAX?

For the money they ask you can do better than the at series. I was an at pro fan years ago but they've been surpassed. It's not a bad machine, just not the best bang for the buck. I'd go with a makro machine in the same price range or maybe one of the minelab vanquish machines if you don't need waterproof for hunting in the water.

Will this detach a gold ring????????

Hey from England watch every week. Great test my friend has one its just black. I have a machine for you too test if u can please its a tainxun tx 850 think you my like it cost me 120 pounds sterling 👍👍👍👍

Are you going to do a giveaway

Great idea, but one a week is too long a time.... Cheers, Rik Spector

Looks a lot like my Garrett Ace 200

Only 2 bars battery with new batteries??

Bet it's a Lot harder to detect a dog tag when it's still attached to the dog😂😂👍👍👍 🐶

Dudnt test its recovery speed...from experience these machines really struggle to separate targets in close proximity...what's the point of a metal detector that dosnt detect metal? They're even worse if the coins are buried...

@gtman316

You could tell the recovery speed is slow, it didn't beep every time he swiped a coin across the coil

I have one it’s not bsd

Depth indicator or not, at least you’ll never dig dealer than 7”

Id recommend a $199 Minelab Vanquish 340 over any Chinese junk

@jamesbecquart5020

any bounty hunter machine which are made in texas is better than supporting the chinese.

I bet it was over loading on the half dollar.

You didn’t test the gold !!!

Really have no faith in any air test

@DiggingIowawithCoinboy

I would only use an air test to determine what a certain target rings up as on a certain detector, not to gauge depth.

And it certainly would have picked up a half dollar

Shave your awesome beard for a video when you hit 40 K subscribers please

The half dollar was fake lol jk

Wow! That has to be the WORST detector I've ever seen!
