[QUOTE="Westaus, post: 285055, member: 2598"] Thanks Mike for the encouragement. Nanjim I have hired both in the past, 2300 and a 5000 instead of 4500 but similar enough. Both found Gold. The simplicity of the 2300 is what appeals, no straps, cords etc... the lighter weight, can be used by family really easy (not that this is a big factor atm) However the 4500 holds the potential to find bigger nuggets? with the variation of setups and coil options. This cannot be over looked. I like to "buy once, buy well" either machine fits this. With knowing what I am like, the 4500 is more me! If you talk with anyone who has a 2300 or a 4500/5000 they always seem happy with it and do not say, I wish I had the model xyz instead. While other brands offer far better value for money, I am set on sticking with Minelab for detecting in WA. What I need is a poll with what would you do.
