a laughing stock

compared with the original. The original is in our family since 1950 and has been used daily. Unfortunately, the discs are no longer sharp enough and so I bought this model. I'll spare me a more detailed analysis on the labbrige and unstable housing, the inconvenience and the handle ridiculous thin leg assemblies.
The new disks I use now in the old device, because it was me yes only to the discs. Actually a shame for such a good product brand to make such a cheap imitation, because the new discs range from the thickness of the material is far closer to the original. Earlier things were made halt in view of durability and longevity, and a company was pleased when their preparations for quality were known. I would not have my old base frame, everything would go back again, but even with its quirks my 65 years old device is still better than this imitation
