We have had our Colex for almost 4 years and love it. At one point we ran it 24 hours a day for 5 days without any issues. – William
I already had 2 other flatbed cutters and decided to try the Colex version as it appeared comparable at a substantially better price. While I still have the other two cutters, I now have 5 of the Colex cutters. They do a great job and their customer service is superb. Their service department is extremely accommodating and they understand that in a deadline business you can’t afford to have equipment down. Great team to work with. – Alan
