mbc are the swienty ones the same 160g/l as the Lyson
They appear to be about 100 euro that's maybe £80 or so whereas the lyson are £120 painted but still a big difference

DR the Swienty polyhives are 100g/l so less dense. I believe this provides higher insulation levels than the more dense, moulded 160g/l of the Lysons. The Lyson hives have thicker and deeper roof and a thick crown board, absent in the Swienty.
C Wynne Jones quote £100 for a 2-super national Swienty, with Qx, against the £120 for the Lyson from Abelo, without Qx and assembled and painted.
Wonder what carriage would be paid if you buy direct from Swienty @ 100 euros?
Spent much of yesterday painting Swienty hives. It takes a while!
Thanks Kate that's very helpful

We have never had a dishwasher (except Mrs DR )
But we are getting one soon
Will a Payne's poly nuc fit in one
ps I have complicated the Smith hives to match a poly one by fitting a thin perspex crown board a bit too small for the hive so it falls in all the time, also it's light and blows off down the field in the slightest breeze , plus it flexes and traps bees ( I hope Payne's don't sue me for copying their design)

Then there's all the to and fro going back for things I need or forgot
Sometimes I go back for something and when I get there I have forgotten what it was
I then walk back to the hive
As soon as I get there I remember "no hive tool "
Then its off back to the house get hive tool
Back at the hive its then
Where have I put the smoker ?
Oh no I took that back to the house with me and put it down
So off back for the smoker
Damn where is that hive tool gone now?? ...... etc
