Questions and answers
- When does Lortone run sales?
- Lortone sells through dealers and rarely discounts directly. Savings usually show up as dealer promotions or bundled grit kits rather than list-price cuts, so compare across stores before buying.
- Where is Lortone cheapest?
- Prices vary by dealer and shipping weight, since these tumblers are heavy. Compare the total with shipping across rock-shop and lapidary suppliers; the 3A is the lowest-cost model in the lineup.
- What is the difference between the Lortone 3A and 33B?
- The 3A has one 3 lb barrel; the 33B has two 3 lb barrels on one base, so you can run coarse and fine grit at the same time. Both use the same belt-driven motor design.
- Does Lortone accept returns?
- Returns are handled by the dealer you buy from, not by Lortone directly. Check the store's return window and whether opened or used tumblers are eligible before ordering.
- Are Lortone tumblers good for beginners?
- Yes. The 3A is a common first tumbler: simple, quiet and easy to reload. Expect roughly a week per grit stage, so a full polish takes about four weeks.
