Even though this kit is obviously for a beginner, everything included is professional quality, and you are sure to find gold with this set if you look in the right places. However, might I suggest upgrading from the Gold Trap pan to a Super Sluice. If this kit came with the Super Sluice instead of the Gold Trap, it would be absolutely perfect. By the way, before you start using this set, make sure you cut off the end of the Gold Guzzler tube at an angle (like 45 degrees or so). The tube that sucks up the gold comes with the end 90 degrees but this makes it difficult to suck up gold without it falling back into the pan. Some other things you should consider getting to help you find gold:A bucketA trowel or prospecting scoopA small pick mattockA magnetic black sand separatorJet Dry (google it)One last thing: the booklet that comes with this kit, “How To Find Gold” is basically just a long-winded advertisement for Garrett metal detectors. It won’t help you find gold with this kit.Still, and easy 5/5!
