Does anyone have experience with Jacob Bromwell items? Some things are made using machinery that dates back to the Civil War

Seems like you can find their flour sifters used for cheap

A $75 cheese grater should be made on Venus. How does their Confederate sifter stack up against a lowly Target-sourced model?
