    i ran one for a few days, and i cant really find anything bad to say about the press. some of the function buttons seemed silly and not needed, but it ran good. my only complaint was that with the autoplate this machine had on it i could not fit my hand into the gap to wipe down the blankets. its a rather small opening. i believe it only has three form rollers. its no heidelberg, but for what this one was it was fine.

    you will still need to wipe the blankets by hand. just get a pressman with small hands.

    I ran one for little over a year, the press prints well enough, need to keep ink fountains clean. Not a bad press if the price is right, also if you do need parts be prepared to wait a while, i don't think they are still in production.
