does anyone have an opinion on reed boom pumps have schwings now but want a z boom also but dont know anything about reed, as far as reliablity, parts, severvice,ect. any info pos or neg would be helpful, thanks.

In the few times I've run the two we have. They pump pretty good. The two we have have poor hopper design which leads to hopper build up. Boom is okay outriggers are ok although you tend to have to get front end up pretty high to keep the rear end from dancing

thank you.

Seem to be as reilable as other Euro/German units, most have prox swithes, C-F pipe, P-style back-end kit. Just ordered hopper parts for our (2) 37m's and ALL parts were in stock in Calfi, they only asked how fast do YOU want them.  

Bet I want parts faster than you do. Was good to get by your shop and meet everyone there. Henry 

Thanks and see you soon.
