HFS Bill Money Counter Worldwide Currency Cash Counting Machine UV & MG Counterfeit

I struggle to find words that can express how happy I am with this purchase. I know it's early on and I haven't used it for many months but I've run several thousand physical bills through this machine so far and it is just remarkable how accurate and problem free it is. Yes i've had it hiccup once or maybe twice but 99 out of 100 times it's spot on. It counts insanely fast and the different detection modes and adjustable sensitivity makes you feel like you should have paid 10 times more for it. This is no cheap lightweight piece of crap. I know i'm probably starting to sound like I got paid to write this review but I promise you that this machine is not going to disappoint you and you can close your eyes and purchase one with confidence. It's probably at least twice as heavy as it looks being made of plastic that is so solid that it feels like metal. It also did in fact come with all of the spare parts shown in the picture as well as the additional "point of sale" type display. It will also count any type of currency and it's not restricted to any range of specific bills. It will actually count similarly sized pieces of plain paper as long as you set it to ignore magnetic and uv detection. In my experiment I cut a plain sheet of printer paper to the exact size of a dollar bill and set it to UV detection only and it caught the fake bill every time. I can't really see how they could have possibly made this machine any better.... Except for one small thing!This is only the smallest issue and for all I know there is a setting that I haven't figured out as yet to rectify this issue but in my opinion it starts to count the bills so quickly you have to be extra careful when placing the bills into it or it will start counting before you settle the bills in place properly which can result in a miscount or an error. I've gotten used to it and I am yet to read the manual properly to determine if this can be adjusted but I wish it had a default 1 or 2 second delay after detecting that there were bills ready to be counted. If you use the Batch feature this isn't as much of an issue. Either way I can't imagine that there's a better currency counting machine out there than this one even at double the price. Get one you won't regret it.

This makes counting the bank at work so much faster and easier! It works well with brand new bills that we sometimes get from the bank. These as-yet-uncirculated ones and fives are almost impossible to count by hand because they stick together, but this machine zips right through them. It also works well on worn bills. I work in a nightclub and there may be no easy way to say this with any decorum, but sometimes I have to count hundreds and hundreds of one dollar bills that have been given as tips to our dancers. Yes. Underwear money. It's wrinkled, creased, and sometimes even quite moist. This machine counts them anyway.The only adjustment I've had to make is that sometimes you get the "counterfeit" error message when counting ones. To combat this, I just turn the Ultraviolet Counterfeit Detection feature off and then turn it back on when counting larger denomination bills.

I want to make this review because people have go to know what a workhorse this is. I don't baby this machine at all and it is beat to no end. I throw it in a gym bag in my hot car and it sits there for a week or more, I drop it, I rip the cords out, the machine gets slammed, etc. I hook it back in to count and BAM no more second guessing big counts and I stop wasting time. This is a great budget machine.

I used to spend hours sorting and counting money. While I still have to sort, this little jewel save a tremendous amount of time each day. I always thought that a counter would be too expensive, but when I couldn't sleep one night I thought I would see how expensive they were. For the time that it has saved me, it has paid for itself many times over! I felt like I had done something wrong for the first few days because I was headed home an hour early!!

the hopper on the top of this bill counter is at such an awkward angle. You have to put the stack of bills in at JUST the right angle otherwise they draw in crooked and jam right away. You can’t put more than 100 bills in either or it jams numerous times. Spits the bills out at the bottom quite bad as well. I’d give it 2 stars counting 20s/50s/100s and 1 star counting 1s/5s/10s. It literally can’t count a stack of singles without jamming or throwing an error. I have a royal sovereign bill counter which works 1000 times better for only twice the price but what do ya expect for $69. Would not recommend for any large quantity counting or bundling. It just sits in the closet now as I went over the 1 month return window. Not even using it. Waste of money

If you are looking for a money counter in order to save time I would absolutely avoid this one. It simply does not work. I have attempted to use two separate counters and they both were very poor. They would jam continuously and the worst part is count inaccurately. The first one I received would only power on when it felt like it which might've been a bad connection but it also jammed and counted incorrectly. I decided to return it and order another as sometimes you get a lemon. Well the next one I received powered on consistently but would jam even more frequently. I ended up having to count all the bills by hand. When I brought the bills into the bank the one time I struggled with getting though all the counting, the count was completely wrong.This thing is a piece of junk. I don't normally write reviews but this thing is that bad.

Delivery was good and it works very good running fast. But a couple of issues I noticed. First the batch button is not much helpful because if you are to set batch to 20 or 5 or 4, you gotta hit - or + key so many time to reach the number you want. It should have been preset in such a way to give you 100, 50, 20, 5 and 0. Secondly the "add" key function strangely. If you hit add key, it automatically deletes currently count, resetting count to zero. I have no idea how to do addition when the machine set the existing count to zero.
