This spring I did a head-to-head comparison between the original Australian Flow hive and the Chinese copy Auto-frame and this is what I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVkyC-i1K0k&t=45s
I kept bees back in the 70's and kept enough hives at that time to sell honey commercially. I have only re-entered beekeeping because of the promise of the Flow hive. The idea of getting honey without the back-braking work of robbing the hives, the huge mess of uncapping and extracting, and the endless sticky cleanup sold me on returning to beekeeping. I have been really excited to find that the Flow hive hype was actually true! I made a good honey crop this year and, now that I've learned a lot about how to most effectively the Flow, I can't wait for next spring. Beekeeping has become almost pure fun for me now that Flow is here.

My Chinese version was sent with the comb not in very good line or formation. It was off a bit and the bees didn?t do much but crawl around them. Maybe next year I float some wax around comb
