I've had my machine for 4 years, and it's still going strong. Don't even know what a pack of cigarettes costs anymore, but my mind is blown seeing what others are paying for a carton. 1 pound of tobacco will make 2 cartons plus 2-4 packs. Cost of tobacco is $14. Tubes (250 a pack) is $4, so for $22, I can make 22-24 packs with tubes left over. Another thing I noticed is my smokers cough went away. Probably because loose tobacco is a lot cleaner than what those brand cigarettes have in them.

That’s why I roll cigarettes. I can’t afford the ones from the store.

Great follow up, Gloria, thank you so much! I live in NY and cigs cost $13 a pack, about $130 a carton. This machine will pay for itself in just a few weeks. I will try and post my own review in a few weeks once I really get the hang of it. I’m still figuring out tobacco and tube combinations, there’s so many!

It is super fast, I roll the entire large bag of tobacco in about 3 hours. I then refrigerate them. Its a great machine. Just difficult to return in Pa because it was used for tobacco. I ordered another one because it does a great job! If you get one please let me know what you think.

Wow the tubes here are under 2 bucks a box and I buy my tobacco from pipes and cigars online for $9.99 a pound. I had the hand crank one also had the powermatic 4 which was a pain to use. I love the powermatic 3. I've rolled 20,000 so far

Tobacco general .com is best at taking care of you with the lowest price (all about the same price) I get two pounds, five boxes of tubes delivered..$50, lasts me all month plus

I invested in this machine and like it a lot. I would make a recommendation to add a small guiding LED light by the tube insertion point which is lower on the device. Most people will place this in or on a tray , mine is higher than most at 2-3" which creates some depth and shadow but still .. especially if I'm using it in dim lighting , the brightness of the LED screen on top blinds me to the tube insertion point. I'd recommend lowering the brightness of the top screen and adding a small light to illuminate where you put the tube especially because it has to be on there precisely to work. I know you're not the manufacturer but if you sell them maybe you can feed this back to them

I've been hand cranking a topomatic over 10 years now & after seeing this I'll be getting one for my mom. I figure $200 for the machine & 3 boxes of tubes $15 & 1 16oz bag of American Club Pipe tobacco at $15. So $30-$40 for 3 cartons of cigs. $80 a carton of Marlboro Reds 100's. So 3 cartons of Marlboro's in 3 weeks would cover the cost of this & I won't be having to handcrank out cigs anymore. in 4 months that machine has made 782 packs or 78 cartons. Yeah Finally something I actually feel good in investing in. Thanks for sharing this.

I have done another video about how it’s not rolling as tight and even with a 4 year warranty I can’t return it through the mail. This machine is spectacular when it was working.

Can you use tobacco right out of a new package or do you need to dry it out some first? Also, would you say the tobacco you use is long-cut or short-cut? I generally use Good Stuff and Cherokee brands. I'd consider them medium cut I suppose but leaning more toward a longer cut. I'm already tired of hand-cranking (4 mos.) my cigarettes and want to buy one of these. Good video and thanks for the demonstration.

I use the tobacco right out of the bag, I have never dried it out. I use pipe tobacco that’s all they sell at the store around the corner from my house. I honestly am not a fan of the hand crank, I don’t like how they turn out. If you do get one of these please watch the video about returning it with a warranty because I couldn’t return it through the mail because it contained tobacco. I live in Pa your state might have different laws. Thank you so much for the compliment and thank you for watching my video. Have a great day.

Too much money for a pack of cigarettes.

I noticed you took a handful of tobacco straight out of the bag and put it into the hopper. How do you deal with the small sticks/stems that are in the bags? Don't they cause problems?

@gloriouscrafts

3 ай бұрын

I sometimes find them and break them up. Unfortunately there are times when I have them in my cigarettes while I’m smoking them. Do you sift through your tobacco before you use it? Maybe I should try that.

Hello, what brand of tobacco do you use and do you always use this brand? Also, do you always keep the density level on the top larger bar? The reason I ask is because the machine I bought only made 150 cigs before it stopped working and I had to send it in to be repaired and your machine seems to work perfect every time.

I just figured I had my response since I've had this machine for a while. Had a different machine before that you had to put the tobacco in each time.. I have found that different tubes in different tobacco react different to the stuffer.. also when the tobacco gets dry you have to adjust the density... I personally use the 0hm brand tobacco... And I won't tell you the tubes I use because they're too hard to find......lol... When I was figuring this out I pretty much went and seen what they sold the most of...

I have a pm2, and just received pm3 today. I’ve had my pm2 for 3 years with no problems. My question is, is there a break-in period for the pm3? Your machine made 26 before mine made 10. It seems to run at less than half the speed yours is in the video… is it just a slow unit? And now, after every couple of cigarettes, it says hopper. I clean out the hopper, put back the tobacco that was there, run it until hopper clears of, and then it will say hopper again. At least 3 times in a row. Had this less than an hour, and already wanting to send it back

My guess is that you are using long cut tobacco and it is having a hard time feeding into the bottom. I use OHM Silver tobacco and have to shred it up a bit with a small blender to get it to feed without problems. I chop it up to the same consistency as the tobacco in store bought cigs.
