Terry

Ive had one for 5 years and it was a great machine and still has the original pump . The only problem I had was changing the vacs.You had to remove the cover off the original vacs and fit them on to the new ones which was a pain in the arse.
 
If they weren't spot on or moved when you put it all back together you would have to take all it apart again. They are a nightmare to work on as its hard to get the tray in and out of the machine.

Apart from that I would have rated it better than the Airflex Turbo as far as performance and general cleaning,filling and emptying the machine. It has better handles for lifting and also longer power leads.

If the Eclipse had the access to the vacs and motors like the Airflex then it would have been even better.

One concern would be how much it weighs- I wouldnt like to lug around anything heavier than my airflex.
