What are the differences between the TurboForce ($149.80) and the MegaForce ($188.80)?

I am a MegaForce purchaser/user and as I understand the difference, I bought the Megaforce because it has a dedicated blower/cooler for the motor. Check with the manufacturer, but I believe the TurboForce does not have this feature. If you are going to grind many pounds of meat at one time (I do), a blower is recommended to keep the motor from going autoshutdown to protect it from overheating. Finally, I have been using mine for a full deer season, we processed 6 deer, and zero problems so far. Regards,Barnhart Kid.

i see no real differance but beware that they are not the power they claim. but if your just doing small batches it is ok for a entry level sausage maker. but if you make 20 to 50 pounds at a time like we do then you really want to step it up to a more heavy duty grinder. our cabellas 1 hp grinder will do 600 lbs a hour and not slow down. hope this helps paul

The large vent and cooling fan on the slightly more costly unit seemed to make sense to me. Electric motors will fail sooner if they get hot. We processed our first elk on a friend's more powerful, heavier, more costly grinder from Cabella's. It got hot enough to smell twice during a day of grinding and sausage stuffing. We had to shut it off to cool. This little unit has not gotten anywhere close to hot. I regularly sniff the exhaust side of the venting, and put my hand by it more often. It's never gotten hot, grinding 80 pounds strait of frozen chicken necks for dog food, quarters of an elk, and misc other grinding, sometimes hours at a time. So far, mine has worked perfectly.

I also own the machine and have had no problems. Both machines have air cooled motors, but the megaforce has top and bottom vents which cool better. The Megaforce also comes with a stainless steel sausage stuffing plate. If you have the turbo force you would have to use the wagon wheel plate to stuff sausage which is much slower. If you price the stainless sausage plate it cost around $22.00 alone. I make sausage at about 10 lbs each time and the sausage stuffing plate comes in handy.

The 150 dollar case comes with CM 200mm fan. They are exactly the same case. The 200mm fan cost about 16 dollars to purchase separately. Recommend buy the $99 case and cooler master 200mm fan separately. I don't need the top fan.

Can't seem to find any difference between the two. Both come with 2011/136x/115x part. Both look visually the same, both have the same pump. Perhaps just a different naming code from the factory? I would buy the $50 one. I have it, and it runs like a beaut.

The Executive is larger - about 3" wider and 1" deeper. It appears to have cooling fans and USB ports. And, it's about $30.00 more expensive. I have the Professional and really like it. Unless you need the extra size, fans, and USB ports, the Professional should serve you well.

Get the STX 3000 Megaforce. I've been using it for over a year grinding chicken wings - about 65 lbs a month. They have THE best customer service!

I think if it's not the exact same as what the professionals use...it's very close. Maxforce worked extremely well for me.

Sorry, I don't know if there is a difference. Maybe the prices just vary. I would compare and make sure the model #'s are exactly the same, and if not, research the model numbers.

There is no difference. Not sure why you are seeing it as more expensive. I'd just try to get the larger one at the lowest price you can find.

My understanding is that the Turbo RAT is marketed for those looking for extra "output" - considering that my RAT2 has what seems to me as already having strong output, I can't imagine how much more oomph the Turbo gives. Depends on one's tastes. It could be too much. Having not played through one though, I can't give you a detailed explanation as to how the extra output differentiates the sounds between the two models. However, if you check out youtube, there are some side-by-side demonstrations as to the differences. Hope I could help!

Please be careful.. the seller "Big Box Superstore" has a caption stating "Free upgrade to 2015 model.Un60h7150" for $1699 this is misleading since this is not an "upgrade" at all. $2203 is the realistic price for this item. Hope this helps

All of the 17000 models are basically the same as far as the capacity to clean the air. The difference is in the type of timers and remotes that are used. The basic 17000 has a simple three position switch for speed flow. and can be bought for about $95. The filters are the same on all models.

The Elite is supposed to be 2X more powerful than the regular model. The Elite is the only one I've used so I really can't compare the two.

I have not personally compared, however here is an article that may help answer some questions: http://www.head-fi.org/t/673186/nuforce-mmp-reviewMichael @ Kraft Street Audio

I believe they are exactly the same. The chiroflow is sold at a higher price in chiropractors' offices, the mediflow is available online and in stores without the mark up... :)

From what I can see there is no substantial difference between the two series. They look the same and have substantially the same hardware. The M5 listings I have seen seem identical to the V5 I bought. I recommend the V5 so I can imagine the M5 is good too. One note: I got the V5-573PG-9610 which comes with an Nvidia GPU. If you can find this, it is worth it! It makes games and video and graphic programs run much better.

They are the same compressor under a few different names for some odd reason. Get whichever one is cheaper
