desertcart.com : KOLIBRI KBR-1500 V2 Business-Grade Money Counter | Bill Counter, Sorter, Reader with Counterfeit Detection | Mixed Value Money Counting Machine | US Tech Support : Office Products

Review: This is the one to buy! - 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 desertcart 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.
Review: Prepare For That Bank Interview With Confidence - 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.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for denominations, not sure about how good the counterfeit detector is.
*by B***. on September 27, 2025*

This thing is fantastic, the fact it can do denominations, and that its much cheaper than the "professional" brands is very impressive. It can detect obvious fakes like hollywood set money, but I dunno how it stands up to other counterfeits. It runs the bills cleanly and quickly and doesn't spit bills everywhere. I haven't had to adjust anything for it, have used it for over a year and haven't had any problems. buttons aren't too complicated and the screen is nice compared to a previous counter i used. Hopefully I get a few more years of service out of it!
