To get the job you want, you need confidence and experience. Don't go into a bank interview cold. Get to know your way around counting money with this amazing device. Set up only takes a moment. Find a nice sturdy table to place the device. There is a built in carry handle to make sure you don't drop it. It drops out of the way when not in use. Plug the power cable in the back, flip the power switch, and you're ready to count some serious money. Practice with large stacks of One's to get the fill for it. If you forgot to go the bank to get some, head back there now. Or, if you have any friends who are exotic dancers, offer to count her money for her. The hopper holds up to 200 bills, but I preferred a more manageable stack of 100. A toggle switch goes from automatic (the default when the machine is turned on) to manual. I preferred the manual mode as it allowed me to place the bills squarely without ripping them out of my hand. Press the start switch and lean over to smell the sweet sweet smell of dirty bank note fibers flowing through the air. On a hot day, the swirling bank notes even act as a fan. A few seconds is all it takes to go through the entire stack of bills. Batch mode is useful to band the bills. It defaults to 100, but it can be adjusted in 25 increments or micro one-step adjustments. Money bands (sold separately) typically hold 100 bills and come in labeled, color coded strips. When the machine reaches the desired batch number, it pauses to allow the counted stack to be removed. During my testing, none of the bills got flagged as counterfeit. I only had the machine jam twice during hundreds of attempts, and that was due to some really nasty bills that shouldn't even be in circulation let alone a dance club. Presort the different denominations before counting them because this machine does not differentiate between different them, nor does it sum the totals of the bills' value. This is where those math skills you swore in 9th grade you would never use finally kick in. Counting stacks of 100 also make it easier to sum. Add TWO zeroes to the end of the denomination. If that fails you, switch to the calculator app on your phone. If that's still too hard, make batches of 10 and only add ONE zero to the end. Some machines record the serial #. This one does not. What do you expect for $60? For $600, you can get a more expensive model, but then you won't have any bills to test with. After each days run, unplug your machine, grab it by the handle, and give it a good cleaning with an air hose. There are multiple sensors in the machine that need to be kept clean for accurate results. For the money, this machine did a 100% accurate job and is a real time saver. I feel confident that I can now go to my bank interview and act like a pro, handling money like I was born with this machine.

I was looking for a bill counter that can accurately count and detect fake bills for my business when I stumbled upon this Kolibri unit. The price was a bit high for my budget but given its features, I decided to give the machine a shot. I didn’t have any fake bills around, so I bought a stack of fake ones from Amazon to test out the fake bill detection performance. Aside from some Chinese letters and lack of a magnetic ink, the dimensions, weight, and look of the bill were near identical to real bills. After some testing with a stack of half fake and half real bills, WOW does this thing sort and separate the fakes from the real ones. **PROS** - This thing is fast and accurate. I placed a stack of 200 bills and the machine counted the value of strictly real bills while effortlessly sorting out the fake bills, all without a single stop! - No more need to orient several bills yourself! Let’s say I have a stack of bills of random orientation and denomination and I want to orient them and sort by denomination. I first use the sort function to get all of my $1, $5, $10, etc. together. Then for each stack of denominations, I use the “Face” function followed by “Orientation” or vice versa. I was able to get five denominations sorted and oriented within a matter of a minute or so. - The machine errs on the side of caution with false negatives. Very occasionally a real bill will slip through into the reject pocket. This is a great feature because it is much safer to have false negatives than false positives, where fake bills are deemed real by the machine. Simply run the reject pocket stack through the hopper up top to ensure that every real bill is accounted for. - Smart design. The machine has a proximity sensor on the top hopper to know when a stack of bills are loaded, a sensor in the reject pocket, and a sensor on the bottom for counted and legitimate bills. What’s awesome is that if I have two stacks of bills I place on the hopper separately, the total value of the first stack is added onto the second stack for as long as the first stack is not removed from the bottom. If the first stack is removed, the sensor detects it and resets the counter/value to zero. The machine also will tell you the reason for each bill’s rejection, such as no magnetic ink in the case of my fake bills. - Built-in printer. If you want to see how many bills of each denomination you have, you can either see it on the screen or print it out or safekeeping. **CONS** - If you increase the speed, the accuracy of the number of counted bills, value of the stack, and detection of fakes deteriorates. The machine has three speeds. By default, it is set to the lowest speed, which is still plenty fast to sift through a stack of 200 bills. I found that it is best to leave the machine at the default slowest speed for maximum accuracy. - The display UI works, although it’s not the prettiest in the world. Sometimes error messages will overlay on top of each other, but I have not found these things to hinder my ability to use this machine or cause performance issues. - Price. Some may be deterred by the price, but honestly I think it’s worth it if you can bite the bullet. To not have to constantly stop from each fake detection and to be able to sort, orient, and count the value of stacks of bills with such accuracy saves me a lot of time and hassle. I’m glad that I stretched my budget a bit for this machine. I sorted and counted a stack of 200 fake and real bills about a hundred times in hopes of tricking it, but it never let a single fake slip through. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this machine to another business owner.

This money counter is super fast and accurate. A very easy to set up machine that all it needs is to be plugged in. I love the fact that I don't have to do the math as it tells me how much I have. It works great for our restaurant business and has cut down on time to prep and close out for the night. I even appreciate its ability to detect a fake bill. Fits easily on a desk and doesn not take up too much space. Highly recommend if you are looking for simple bill counter.

Took a bit of time to properly calibrate. Bills need to be inserted in a specific manner to get a good count without an error. Otherwise works as it should.

It can count 27 bills faster than iPhone can take a picture! I have tested it with several hundred bills and it produced 100% accurate results. I used several counterfeit bills that we have on hand and it detected all of them correctly! Each time it displayed the error code for fake bill and stopped counting until I removed them from the hopper. I taped two bills together and the machine correctly identified it with an error code. It stopped counting until I removed the bills from the hopper. I stuck regular pieces of paper mixed in with large amounts of real bills and it was also able to detect those and once again stopped counting until I removed them from the hopper. I wanted to see what it would take to get this machine to jam, so I inserted the bills increasingly more and more crooked. I had to insert them at almost a 60° angle to get them to jam. Anything less than that and this machine would simply straighten and count them. You should make note that this is a bill counter. It is not a bill discriminator. The difference is simple bill discriminator‘s typically run around $1500. A bill discriminator will allow you to stick a large stack of cash on it all mixed together and it will determine what the denomination is and add a total amount of money for you. A Bill counter simply counts the number of bills that you put in it. So you will need to separate your bills by denomination. Please note this is a completely new updated bill counter from their original. Their original one had earned all the bad reviews it had. I know because I had one. I was happy to see that the company took that into account and did a complete redesign fixing all of their issues and producing this machine! I am glad I gave them another chance because this is the best bill counter I’ve seen for this amount of money! This machine is very professional looking and honestly looks identical to the one my bank uses. It even comes with a dust cover to protect it as well as completing the professional look. The bottom line is it is worth every penny they’re asking and more honestly! If I needed another counting machine I wouldn’t hesitate to buy this again. If a friend or a family member needed needed a bill counting machine I would highly recommend this one to them.

This is the KBR 1500 Bank Grade Mixed Denomination Money Counter Machine & Sorter & Value Reader with Advanced Counterfeit Detection,Multi Currency, Printing Enabled.... These machines amaze me... how they are able to count, read, detect , sort & bundle all at the speed they do is really something ... but that’s exactly what this thing can do.... The top can handle 500 bills at a time, it has the capability to count 1200 bills a minute, so as the stack diminishes, you can add more, the bottom bill stacker can hold 200, so you just have to remove them as they get counted. No worries... the KBR 1500 keeps count on the easy to read 3.5” TFT screen. Think you might have counterfeit bills ?? Not to worry about that either... this machine has 1 ultraviolet sensor, 1 magnetic sensor, 1 infrared sensor , 2 contact image sensors, double note detection & half note detection. If this machine says your bills are good... they’re good.. This also has can read all North American currency, including US Dollars, Canadian Dollars & Mexican Pesos, and includes an adapter for read-out. It can count the total, sort by denomination, stack & add values, add multiple stacks & values. After count, reports.. ( printer cord included, printer sold separately) Provide detailed reports, including each bill, denomination & serial number.... This is a Bank Grade Money Counter.. as good as it gets ... It will save you time, headaches and MONEY... I’ve been playing with it for a couple days, and I can’t foul it up....... .. it’s the real deal... I am EXTREMELY IMPRESSED... I would trust this machine implicitly... to give an accurate count 99.99999%) of the time.... ( there’s always that tiny doubt, but it’s really really minuscule.... . 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣)

Not even a single bill counts. This machine is terrible! I returned the item immediately on the same day I received it, August 4, in the exact same box it came in. They received my return on August 7, and I was notified that my refund would be issued on August 15. However, they delayed my refund.l until 25th. Beware of this company. They sent me a defective machine, and even after receiving the return, they still delayed my refund. Very disappointing experience!

It counts a full stack of mixed denominations rapidly/accurately with easy use. That's what it is. The sort function however has no mechanism to set aside a given denomination while rifling through rest then reloading hopper after setting new denomination to sort for. It just reads the denomination fast, and based on first bill, it goes till it hits a different one. Then you hit start again, it goes only one bill unless 1st denomination (in which case it will go till it hits a different one again). So if you are solely using to go through each bin in a cash register to make sure you didn't sneak an incorrect bill into one, it's fine. If you want to save cash buying with cash not credit at station then after a week neatly sort all your mixed bills to make up some of the difference in effort vs just using credit card and risking RFID scanner fraud, just realize all this thing will help you with for $500 is counting total value. As far as getting all 1's, 5's etc in separate stacks, it would be significantly faster/smoother/easier for you to just sort them out old fashioned way like a card dealer by hand. It would be cumbersome for no reason to try and do that part with this machine. That just isn't what 'sorting' means, here. To be clear, what it does, it does super easy. But there are a lot cheaper options if all you want is a counter, and I don't have the education to work out any better way to use this than counting a mixed stack. If you wanted to not make stupid small purchases just to get rid of $1 bills that add up (i.e. in a way that makes credit cards even with no rewards still better impulsive financial handling method), and after you get 100 $1 bills make a trip and deposit, this will only help you count/verify fast AFTER you sort from original transaction stacks yourself. In that sense 'sorting' is super not easy or convenient and might as well not be a function apart from if you have a cashier's stack to make sure no wrong denomination slipped into any stack in error (wouldn't be rocket science to figure that out either, maybe if you have a cash heavy business with 400 of one type of bill to put in hopper and it was off by one $5 bill then the sort might help you find the needle in the haystack, but its the only real purpose of the function I can figure out)

A+++++

This is waste of money it burst into Flames as soon as i plugged it in. I bought it for office but it Never worked for once.

Cuenta el dinero muy rápido. Cumple su cometido. Los billetes mexicanos de plástico no los cuenta ($20 y $50) e igual el detector de billetes falso no es tan confiable. Solo detecta lo básico y los billetes muy obvios, no es para buscar billetes falsos. Solo contar.

When the functions, UV/MG, are on its impossible to count notes. Stops every 2-3 notes. without the function on it works fine and accurately.

The machine came without UK plug so I had to use the adapter, as soon I switched the machine on it worked for a bit, made a popping sound and the smoke came out. Now I have to return it at my own expense.
