I would agree on your sentiment here, but would respectfully suggest
you examine the build quality of the machine mentioned. If you think
that the components of the machine is poor - could I ask you to print
the components that you are using that makes you think yours are
better. Your right components are important - thats why I asked for
the exact components I have.
