Side by Side Comparison of: Zico vs Queen City Candy vs Fujima vs Zen

I enjoy rolling my own cigarettes now with this easy to use, cost efficient machine. I can roll a pack of cigarettes in under 5 minutes and they almost always come out perfect. Just be careful not to over or under pack the tobacco. You might ruin a few tubes at first but you'll get the hang of it pretty quick.

I got this as a back up to my Powermatic II electric since where I live power outages are a normal part of life. Gave it to a family member to try out. She loves it. I've offered her the use of my electric one but she prefers this little machine. It actually does a better job making 100s than the electric one. Great for folks who are just getting into RYO. Definitely recommend.

So far i have rolled 3 cartons with this little roller and only had one jam but that was because i stuffed too much tobacco. You will learn quick to go light on the tobacco and slowly work up so you dont jam. Also i recommend tapping all of the smokes on the filter on a table to pack the tobacco down to the filter because a lot of times it will leave space between the filter and the tobacco and leaves a weak and gross smoke. I am not sure how long it will hold up but honestly think i am going to look into an electric rolling machine because between my wife and I we seem to be able to smoke them faster than we can roll them almost. Other than all that, the product works great for the money you can roll a carton for less than $10 compared to $50 at the store. Saves A TON of money.

Very Pleased. I received this today. Manufacturers packaging well done. I've been RYO for over 10 years. (My topomatic has seen better days) The powermatic mini is well made. Not cheap brittle plastic. Very easy to use. By my third attempt my ciggeratres turned out perfectly from filter to end. No ripped tubes. Much less tobacco landed on the table. I rolled a pack in about 5 minutes. I completely recommend this rolling machine

I'm a 100mm cig roller. I used the Premiere Supermatic for over 5 years and I loved it, but it finally broke. I started using a manual handheld Gambler roller and it worked well too, but it was messy and sometimes it would stick and only roll half the cig. So I went shopping for a new roller. My first instinct was to buy another Premiere but they are pretty expensive and I'm on a very tight budget. I came across this u it and the reviews were favorable. I was concerned about it rolling a 100mm cig decently. Out if the box, first 100 roll a and it was perfect and no mess all over my table! Bonus! It's a nice small unit that gets the job done for a nice 100mm cig. I use Gambler 100's tubes with no issue. If anything g changes or I have issues I will update my review but so far... I'm very impressed. (The mess in the photo is from the old roller)

Very happy after using three other machines a hand loader a friend gave me a two electric machines from Amazon both not very good i got this today. After rolling two packs in just a few mins im pleased to say i finally got a good one! The machine is well made for the price works like a dream fully packs the tube,easy to work. I give a hearty recomendtion to this little unit it cant be beat for the price.

After you get familiar with the amount of tobacco you need per cigarette...it goes pretty good. Don't overfill and clean it out regularly and you should have no problems. Definitely worth the price.

Was worried about it working but it works great for the price...took a few tries to get used to it after using another brand for years...

This was my first cigarette injector but I put it back in favor of an electric injector which had a motor burnout after 3 months. So back to this ole faithful injector. It works great still.

This works very well , but I did also purchase an electric cig injector. With this manual injector I found my shoulder was hurting. NOT the fault of this injector! I have an injured shoulder. I will keep this one, because there may be times that the power goes out and I will still be able to make my cigs with this!

This product is what it says it is. The product is easy to use. But you need to be careful about the type of tobacco you use. The pipe tobacco is longer and can over pack your cigarettes making it tough to smoke. The chamber in this machine will pack as much tobacco as you want in the cigarette. So it may take a few tries to get it right. But a very good machine for watch it is I would buy it again if I needed to

I also have the electric model and bought this as a spare for when the power goes out, etc. I find I like this one better, way less finicky, and just as fast, for a lot less money. I tried the crank version of the manual, that is heavier and possibly more durable, but didn't think it did any better stuffing tubes and this one can be tucked away a lot easier.If you're using one of the less expensive pocket injectors, I recommend getting this one for home and keeping the small one for on-the-go.

So it works much better than one of those cheap slide injectors, but don't have all day to make smokes. Great for the price can't beat that but don't have all day to make cigs and it rips practically every end of the tubes I use no matter how lightly I pack the injector. Which is super annoying

This product does what it says. It is a sturdy little gadget. It could be smoother to use but it does the job. It could pack the tube a little tighter. I am happy with this product. A good value.

So-So product

Worked for a week or so, then got bad as far as getting clogged. Yes, I know how to use one. Was "ok" then stopped packing. Bought an automatic

Broke after 1 month, replaced it with the black model which is much better.

Not bad...After learning just how much to place in machine, not a bad roll... However, not too good for the female roller... Need hand strength...

Meh... Spend a little more and get Top-O-Matic

Seems well made but zig zag and another major brand of tubes would not fit on the outlet nozzle attachment, it was too large.

worked for about a week, if you live in a climate that is dry and your tobacco gets dry dont buy cuz if you try to use it it gets jammed

It didn't last for very long

I purchased this product because I read so many great reviews. I am new to rolling my own cigarettes and the price seemed great. I was excited when it came and started rolling right away. At first I thought it was just me being new to the experience and that it would take me some practice. After using this for hours I realized that it was very time consuming and I tore more tubes than not. You have to constantly open and close the lid to grab the tobacco between packing. I figured out that to roll a 100 cigarette, you have to slide it all the way the first time, open and close the lid, then slide it half way the second time, open and close the lid, and finally push the slider a quarter of the way a third time to get the tube completely full. Also, if you don't do the third slide EXTREMELY slow, the plunger WILL poke a hole through the top quarter of your cigarette. It also jammed multiple times during use to which you have to dump all tobacco out and clean it so you can start the process over. I ended up ordering the gambler cigarette machine for 29.99 and it works so fast and has yet to tear any of my tubes. I can roll a carton of cigarettes now in thirty minutes. It took a little practice to get it down but after watching some YouTube videos I was rolling like a pro. The moral of this story is, pay a few more dollars for a machine that actually works and don't waste your money on this thing. It's just not worth it. The only thing I use it for now is to gently pack some cigarettes that I didn't pack well enough. Even then, I risk it tearing up my hard work but the cleaner rod that comes with it does come in handy sometimes for my gambler. I hope this helps you make a better choice!

I thought this was a small portable electric rolling machine, so I bought it for my husband for when we travel. My mistake, I should have read all the details and realized it was manual and then moved onto selecting something else. I guess I am pretty old school as when I think Power I think plug it in or but a battery in it.

I've successfully made maybe 4 cigarettes out of 50 attempts with this thing. Just like it's smaller, cheaper counterparts, this "machine" merely shreds your tubes.

Worked fine for the first 2 months , but now it won't hold the tube on when I push the filler button

This didn't even last a week, sent it back.

junk dont buy

Broke after less than a week

I had a serious problem with this machine and had to send it back. the lever which is supposed to hold the cigarette tube in place did not hold strong enough resulting in slippage. one look underneath and it's easy to tell why one look underneath and it easy to tell why the price is so low for this unit
