The GS/3 is a good machine and I like mine for a whole host of reasons, however the chassis weakness led me to lose all confidence that any freight company was likely to deliver one in good condition, even though LM pack them pretty well.
Are they good value for money? Nope. [smiley=thumbdown.gif]
Is support adequate? Nope.
Chassis underdone? Yep.
Do they require regular service? Yep..
I know of a paddle group LM in a busy Melbourne cafe. They are replacing the viton o-rings in the group every 2 months and I have gone through 2 sets at home. In addition, the exhaust valve has a softener screen on the end of it to prevent splash into the driip tray. Despite frequent backwashing, mine was completely blocked within 10 months of home use. There is still work to do on this machine to make it deliver what it promises.
