Thats a big price for a small low tech gadget. It seemed average after the first day or two of use. I am beginning to question doing business with you folks. I used the PT calibration tips on their website but to no avail. I also have a Deltec and Cap stand both costing more than this one and I can say that the quality of all three are equal, so spending more does not mean better. Not even 30 days after I purchased them, and with very moderate use, the footbed is already deteriorating. I?ve loaded it up to 180lbs and have had no issues. tengo ambas y me gustan las 2?????? cuestión de gustos Its my favorite so far! We?ll see how it holds up, but right now I couldn?t be more satisfied.
