9850 machine

does anyone have the K2-9850 router? (4X8 Table)
Im thinking of getting that since K2 company is close by if I have trouble.
Are there any major problems with it like the control box problem on some of the smaller machines?

I used to run two of these at work cutting molds for vacuum forming. they are great when they are operating correctly. How do you plan to use them? My company was doing a LOT of routing so the wear and tear was pretty heavy. We'd run 6-7 hours at a time.

K2 was always awesome with service though. I can't say any of the problems we had were from design flaws...just a lot of use. However, this is not a 50k haas machine.
