[QUOTE="Car 54, post: 103767, member: 85"] I liked Steamman 2 from [URL="http://www.barinstruments.com/"][U]Bar Instruments[/U][/URL], up until a couple of years ago. It used to be a work horse until it seemed the steam trigger on the handle (image below) gets moisture in it, and you have to unscrew those pieces and clean the contacts to get it to steam again. The pressure cap seems to need replacing about every 6-8 months or so (or just the gaskets). The unit as a whole is pretty durable, just these two annoyances, but especially maintaining and buying new steam handle triggers (their not that expensive) You can buy other parts and maintain it pretty easily, and the owner is a nice guy to work with.
