    This extractor is brand new, never been used, or even assembled. I purchased this extractor, and then decided to instead crush and strain my honey. Unfortunately, shipping it back wasn’t covered, and it would have cost me almost a third of the price to pay for shipping. My loss is your gain. I...

    Hello, I have a Maxant 3100P extractor that no longer has variable speed control. When turning the speed control dial, it jumps to full speed right away, instead of gradually increasing speed. Has anyone else experienced this or have an idea what might be the cause? I'd like to repair this...
