I have one, and to be honest I like my old gen3 better...
I use it in tandem with my gen3..
To get it to dump faster you have to run it with the restrictor plug out and it will over trickle by .2 to 1gr regularly... doesn't have a manual slow trickle button so you can't set it to dump lite then manually trickle up like the old gen 3...
What I've found works for me is to set the gen6 to dump 1gr low then transfer it to my gen3 set to the charge I want and it will slow trickle the rest of the way to the correct weight...with this set up I've got it so I'm never sitting waiting on anything and have no time to do anything else between charging cases...
If you are looking for a stand alone electronic unit I'd look at the rcbs, maybe the Frankfort Arsenal or the new hornady, but I don't have any working experience with any of these and have just seen YouTube reviews on them... or if you can find an good working used gen 3 I'd go that way over the gen 6...

I'll take that as you're happy with it. I like the look of it and it seems nice and simple.
Yes! "My" only complain is when you have to take the unused powder off the powder box.
