    Stay Away

    I attempted to buy a unit from them 4 yrs ago. 2 weeks turned in to 4 months and no machine. I found them to be very unresponsive to e-mails and when they DID respond, they seemed to have a VERY HATEFUL sarcastic ANTI-AMERICAN attitude.

    I did not want attitude...just a foam cutter. Saw it at a sign show in Orlando and it seemed to work pretty well..but with this type of equipment SUPPORT is important .. and attitude qualifies the type of support you get.

    I did actually buy a Croma / Aixia cutter. They are more expensive ( too much so in my opinion ) but they were VERY responsive and helpful. I would still reccomand them for this reason alone.

    Good Luck

    Oh, woe is me! I was told to go low budget and have just received my machine after 4 months and several delays. The company now has an American contact and he is not much help either. I had a Croma at my last position and would love to have one again. Dean, Denis, Kathleen and Leo were great. Yes, a bit pricey, but the difference is definitely worth the time saved. I would never recommend this machine to anyone unless some big changes are made.

    Croma

    I had a Croma also and agree about their support. I was always happy with them and now wish I had not sold my unit. Anybody out there have a small one for sale??
