Title: M&R Kruzer users:
Post by: Shanarchy on September 15, 2014, 12:37:01 PM
How are you liking them so far? What manual(s) were you printing on before it? How do they compare?

I'm thinking about putting in an order for one.

How long did they take to ship?

I was printing on an old Workhorse Odyssey 6c/6s  ... night and day comparison... the side screen clamps are absolutely awesome...  and the micros work great too.

(Honestly tho, the Odyssey did hold great registration, ONCE you got it registered, and it did spin nicely)

Took me about a week and a half from when I placed the order to when I got it.

not to knock the Kruzer which I no nothing about, but I have a workhorse odyssey 6c/4s once I did a little extra work to it very good press, using it right now.  Don't think you can go wrong though with an M&R....

I was using a 6/2 silver press, so it is a huge leap forward, but I had played with most of the other nicer presses (v2000, legend, sidewinder, etc) and a handful of less nice ones a few times as well.  It blows all of the other lower tier presses out of the water like the riley hopkins and v1000 etc that are around the same price or even more.  I would put it pretty much on par with all the nicer presses, just without some of the bells and whistles like air locks and tilt control to compensate for warped screens, neither of which I felt were worth doubling the price...

If you're already an M&R auto owner or plan to be in the future, it seems like a no brainer to me if you're looking to spend less than 5 grand on a relatively fully featured tool-less production ready manual.  Mine has already printed around 20k shirts since January without a hiccup.
