CARNATION Multi-Currency Bill Counter and Sorter with Counterfeit Detection - Money Counter Machine with MG, IR, MT, UV & CIS Image Recognition

I usually don't rate items as I order so much in a month. This purchase, however, left me impressed by the pricing being on par with the quality. Beginning with the packaging - you will find a wrapped display counter for customers, cover bag, bill detector pen, chargers, and basic instructions. Mine was pre-set to US currency. Has a beautiful blue LED screen. Performance - counts bills as soon as you insert them into the tray. Overall, great product for the right price - thank you!

This machine counts the cash, adds the cash, doesn't matter if the bills are mixed or all the same value. Very fast and accurate. Good machine

First of all- I have a business and a personal machine. This is a great machine for a cash intensive business. If a significant portion of your revenue comes in cash- do yourself a favor and do not be an idiot like me and buy a good machine. A few years ago, we bought one from Sam's Club and the thing fell apart within weeks (and it was easier to count by hand due to not being able to count multiple denomations ie 20s and 100s). Then I saw a deal on Amazon for a Carnation machine, it was the cheap one, I think $200 or so and I used it at home. It STILL works like a charm and I have no complaints other than it could not do mixed denomination. I like to put it all in and let it go. That being said, I went on Amazon a 2 weeks ago and started searching for one for my business.I contacted the seller on Thursday and asked spoke to someone in customer service about fraud. We are starting to work more in cash and I was interested to know best practices(I know- I cannot wait until we are all using Bitcoin and NFC technology to transfer currency but I could go on a rant forever about the history of the barter economy, why Germany still uses cash for everything as opposed to us Americans love plastic, and nearly any other topic because I love hearing myself rant about economics). They were very nice and spent over 30 minutes making sure I knew how to operate the machine and followed up with a coupon for another machine they sell and a recommendation for a coin sorter.Pros:1. Rejection pocket- it doesnt do the annoying STOP in the middle of a counting.2. Relatively lightweight and not that much space on my work bar.3. The new bills have magnetic ink detection- so I tested it with some monopoly like money my kids had and it worked. I am not sure it would stand up against Cartel/Mafia/KGB produced bills. But it does the job for those of us not working with those types of characters.Cons:1. Pesos, we do business sometimes in Mexican Pesos.2. Took a few tries to connect to my printer. Got it to work and it is fine but could be more intuitive.Overall- 5 stars for doing the job, great customer service, and WAY less expensive than the alternatives a salesman from a financial services company tried to hawk me down with. I would recommend it for heavy usage and commercial usage.

Good product. the reject slot can hold up to 50 bills but it always jams a lot at that setting. I have it set at Max 30 bills but it reduces my throughput at this setting and requires frequent intervention to empty the reject slot.

I can not recommend this bill counter enough. It's hefty and feels solidly made. It's fast and accurate. It's very easy to use. I almost did NOT buy it because I couldn't find a clear statement as to whether it sorts bills or not. Another reviewer mentioned it sorts bills so I got it. It does indeed sort bills - you set it to "single" mode which means it will recognize the first bill counted and spit out different bills that don't match that first bill. In other words, if you're counting a stack of money and the first bill is $1, all $5s, $10s, $20s etc. will get spit out into the "reject pocket." Then I take those bills from the reject pocket and run them again with the $5 as the first bill so it spits out the $10s and $20s... and so on. I'll then take the $1s and sort them by face, then sort them again by orientation so they are ready for the bank. Then repeat for $5s, $10s and $20s. All this bill counting used to take me up to 3 hours by hand and now takes 25 minutes.

This is a great bill counter! After reading reviews of various brands, models, etc... I decided to shell out the extra bucks and purchase this machine. Wow! This is well worth the money. I just received the machine and it is really nice. Everything has been extremely well thought out on this unit. For example: Front loading definitely is more convenient and quicker than if I had purchased a rear loading unit. Even the touch screen buttons are so much better than the other types of buttons. How often have you seen cashiers at the bank frustrated with a counting machine? I saw reviews where people decided to save $200 or $300 only to have the machine breakdown in six months, get frustrated trying to feed old bills, etc... After using this machine, I would recommend it over the CR1. I know there are a lot of people out there that will purchase the other unit because it is cheaper. But from what I read, it is easier to break. It has a lot of plastic parts.Think about all of the time you spend counting dollar bills. That cost money too. I honestly think this is the best machine to buy unless you are willing to shell out $5,000. It's that good.
