they call him Fl!pper...

[projectx]

Cool, you link your review from here to there site?

 

[dv3]

i emailed it to Duard ...the guy that sends the emails i believe he is in charge there

 

[dv3]

So I spoke with them again today and apparently they acrylic scrappers are in beta testing ... so stay tuned and keep checking their site

 

[projectx]

I got my fl!pper the other day, it works great, I like how thin it is, can get by my monti with out knocking the edge of it off lol.
took a bit to get the trick down with the flip but once I got it its pretty simple. I was able to get to areas with it that I couldnt get to with a regular scraper. Thanks for the tip Don, even works better than my mag float

 

[dv3]

glad you like it

they did have a problem with some bad (rusty blades) BUT they contacted me to let me know and are replacing them no questions asked .....excellent communication and support from these guys

 

[projectx]

Yea I got the email stating that if it started to show rust to let them know. I agree great communication and cust service for sure

 

[Cherub]

you still like this thing Don? Have you needed to replace a blade yet?

 

[projectx]

My blade started to show some rust so I pulled it from the tank and let them know. I still drop it in and do cleaning with it. Works pretty good and so much thinner than the mag float, no worries about fragging some of the stuff that has grown close to the glass

 

[dv3]

ya i still like it ....waiting for them to send the new blades still ...honestly i dont see the need to replace the blades ...there not sharpened or anything ..i guess i'll know when they wear out ...lol

 

[Cherub]

I went to order one and they're sold out -_-

 

[Cherub]

they are still sold out...

 

[bsharpe]

Cool I just put an order in to be on the waiting list. Thanks Don.

 

[ReeferMatt]

Flippers are back in stock!! I just ordered mine and because they sold out they are continuing the introductory price of $19!

 

[dv3]

cool ...talked to Duard the other day and he is sending me new blades ....said they are going fast so be patient but the blades are right now and dont rust when left in tank

 

[dv3]

got my replacement blades today already! ....nothing but excellent service from these guys

logic lesson:
magfloat = toy
flipper = tool
tool > toy
flipper> magfloat

alright its been a while since my logic classes but you get the idea

 

[projectx]

Sweet mine are probably waiting for me when we get home. I agree the flipper does a great job

 

[ReeferMatt]

OK, have been using mine for three days now and this thing is AMAZING!!! I may never have to use a razor scraper in my tank again!! My only complaint is now I want all my other maintenance tasks to be this easy!!!

 

[cdrewferd]

Just ordered mine. Can't wait for it to come in.

 

[Cherub]

got mine just now and wooot! This thing did great! flipping was easy, I was worried about my magnetic sand and wouldn't you know it. The flipper came off the glass during a slip and to my surprise it was light enough not sink like a stone. Instead the current carried it to the top instead of sinking to its magnetic doom. Love this thing! My glass looks brand spankin new. thanks Don for showing us the way

 

[dv3]

glad i could help guide you all to the light ....for being so simple its amazing all the other products out there that just cant get it as good as this one and well customer service never hurts which they lack by no means
