Since I have been using my A3-31 I have come to the realization that Felder/Hammer has some really nice stuff but from looking through some threads it seems like there have been some issues with a few of their machines. Like anything mechanical that is to be expected but some of the horror stories have been circuit boards going out that cost about $2000 to replace, expensive motors, etc. Just not a ton of information out there on this particular machine.
Does anyone have a CF 731 Pro? More specifically, one that was purchased in the 2000-2002 years? If so, what do you think of it? I am seriously considering picking it up but just want to make sure I know what I am getting myself into before plunking down this kind of money. I was going to buy a Hammer B3 to compliment the A3-31 but if I could get this machine for a good enough deal then it would be a better option given my basemet shop.
Thanks in advance!
