I've used a Frankford Arsenal tumbler for several years with good results. They are a little cheaper than the big brand-name boys.

Frankford Arsenal is owned by parent company Battenfeld Technologies out of Columbia, MO, but have no idea where its made. Sounds like a lot of research for a simple tumbler...Good luck.

Try a Berry Tumbler if you can find one. They have a large bowl and a transparent lid. Truth be told, I doubt there is that much difference in any of the tumblers on the market. They all vibrate dependably. I've never heard anyone say that their tumbler sucked. I've heard someone say that they their motors all come from the same place. Don't know if it's true but might as well be from my experiences.
