we have the mid range version from what looks like the same oem and we shipped it from China as we bring in a alot of stuff via ocean anyways. I looked at the version Grimco was selling but felt like if we were going fancy we might just get something from GFP etc. Quality is okay but some of the shafts don't spin as smoothly, the clutches on the shafts at the top kind of suck and are gritty and not smooth and the speed control is horrible. That being said, at the price we paid it was a great deal (we were already shipping a container so we really didn't pay much in shipping at all). I'd be a little scared to drop $11k on one though. We buy a lot from Grimco and they are great but I'm not sure on that purchase...
