I have a couple of them. Work pretty well. Good for up to 700 or so taps. Make sure they are level. Lubricate the rod with mineral oil. Works best if you have a roof or something over it to keep the rain and snow off. I think I paid around $900 new for mine so I think the price is fair.

I think one of thoses single gilly's are over $1,000.00 now. $650 does not seem unreasonable
