i have one and used to own several one's. The more classic models like the 123r, 8r, 111, etc are known and praised for there reliability and are basically good workhorses.
The newer models are more hightech, but very well designed, easy to maintain and use. They use a little to none plastic, so they are also more durable. Optimus and Primus are mine favorite brands, because of that.
