Great sluice to pack in and out on those scouting / sample prospecting trips. Light weight and easy to use remember to wash sluice with dawn soap a few times to get any oils off and then head to the stream to use it all day or back home as a clean up sluice setup up with a nice angle and use your hose and bam you have a clean up sluice too.

I have not been able to use it yet however, the videos and comments I’ve seen should prove its ability to pull gold. What I like is adaptability. You can extend it but short like it is it fits in a backpack nicely. I didn’t know they sell extensions until after my purchase. You have to store it flat but I’m going to cut a steel plate and use silicone to mount it. I have a lot of ideas for my own extensions to test ideas. I received the sluice in perfect condition and packing was excellent. Only way it would have been damaged is to run over it with a K loader (huge military fork lift). Many Thanks Did not receive or ask for any incentives in writing this. I believe in identifying a well made product, thinking out of the box for adaptability, and excellence in shipping

The Absolute Best Box for Deep Canyon Scouting Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ​If you’re tired of hauling a heavy, full-sized metal box down steep canyon walls or through thick brush to sample remote creeks, the Adventure Sluice is the missing link in your gear setup. ​Field Performance ​Packability: It is incredibly lightweight and low-profile. It straps right onto a backpack or drops into a 5-gallon bucket with room to spare. When you're dropping down loose ridges to reach virgin bedrock, every ounce saved matters. ​Instant Processing: It excels at rapid sampling. You can shovel raw, unclassified dirt directly into it, and the molded vortex cells handle the flow perfectly. Lighter quartz and river gravels clear out immediately, while heavy black sands and ultra-fine flour gold lock hard into the pockets. ​Zero Maintenance: No carpet, no miners moss, and no expanded metal to mess with. Cleanout takes less than 30 seconds—just flip it, rinse it into your pan, and you’re ready for the next test hole. ​The Verdict ​This box isn't meant to sit on a shelf; it's built for aggressive scouting and finding the paycheck before you haul in heavy equipment. If you want to cover more ground and test remote pockets of gravel efficiently, the Adventure Sluice is worth every penny.

I trust prospectorsdream with the all my hard digging , I have sluice from pocket sluice to the 4" adventure sluice to the 12" dredge sluice and every size inbetween. If you want your hard earned gold in the front row and not blown out of the back of the sluice prospectorsdream is the only way to go

Well its a nice test sluice but it has a great deal of bubbles in the vortex walls causing 1 mm breaks in it not sure if that will affect it much but its not 1 or 2 its 10-15 breaks. Travels well easy to set up I would buy it again most likely this one is a fluke since all my other mats from DM are flawless.
