Another high quality Apimaye product for traditional woodwear, would love if kit included latches to secure brood or super boxes!

Great items!
I converted my wood boxes to hybrids recently. Got the bottom boards, top covers and feeders. I LOVE them! So easy to use and I know they will stand the test of time, unlike wood. I will definitely be switching over to full Apimayes as needed. Very pleased with this product.

Great products
I now have hybrid beehives. I bought 2 bottom and 2 top cover/ feeders. I have a mechanical back ground so installation was easy. I am going to convert 2 more hives soon. I like the bottom board and am not worried about it rotting out, I like the entrance and the fact I can close and lock it if need be. I was shopping for top feeders when I said this is a no brainer, I live in S.C. so It gets really hot here and I am happy it is vented.Now I am waiting for my bees to come in the spring, unfortunately my bees did not survive my 1st year as a beekeeper.

Great cover
I read that this cover will fit my regular 10 frame wood hive. And it does. I used a strap to keep it in place.
I think it is a great product if your whole hive is Apimaye hive, but it also works with regular hives.
The insulated 7 frame hive seems solid. I like all of the options available for bee entrances. I particularly like the hive top feeder. I have not used the division board yet but I can see its benefits for next spring when I make splits. The final verdict won’t be out until next Spring. Let’s see how it compares to traditional wood boxes…
We are new to beekeeping but so far we are learning about the apimaye and love that it is well built and we are feeding 1:1 sugar water in the upper feed tray! So far so good!
