Top Criticism

Haha yeah, I know exactly the type you’re talking about. Everyone chasing the next 12V or AR setup with all the proportioners, remote systems, and fancy mixing valves — half of them don’t even need it. Back when I worked at the company, the stuff I always thought was kinda overkill were the “premium” hose reels and those massive reclaim systems that no one ever maintained right. People would drop thousands just to say they had the top-tier gear, then bring it in 3 months later because something seized up. Meanwhile, the guys running simple downstream rigs were out there making money every day with half the setup and none of the drama.
