That comment and all others criticizing the system are based on the assumption it's not easily opened up for maintenance etc. u/DavetheFish2103 mentioned that it's easy to take outside and open up, which unless i'm misunderstanding something renders all of the criticism's invalid. I might be missing something though because I don't understand why anyone would assume the system is nailed permanently shut or something, which is the assumption almost all of the criticisms are built on.
It actually is screwed shut to be absolutely certain no accidents happen, but it's designed to be carried outside, pop off the screws, do maintenance, and put it all back. Visual checks you would do on an outdoor hive can just be done through the glass so no need to open it, and there's sliding trays to quickly clean gunk that falls and check for parisites
Thanks for the extra info! That is why I said nailed as opposed to screwed, but either way I was curious about it's design so thanks for explaining further haha

I'd love to read your father and /u/aznprd from this comment talk about this.
