Yea,take it from me,the only good Equators were the EZ 1000 and EZ1100. The later models were horrible and full of cheap Chinese parts. At their main offices in Houston,Id call previous dealers to sell them crates of the newer ones no longer made like the Philco of Italy models previously noted.Id get screamed at or hung up on because of the lack of care from Atul and his Indian crew. However,before working there, I worked at HD and sold dozens of the 24"and 27"wide combos made by LG. They are very well made and work great. The ones I sold came with my own instructions verbally. And their owners loved them. Not one issue.
