Refurbished or new: which machine suits you?

The question we get most often: should I buy refurbished or new? The honest answer: it depends on your situation. Below is the trade-off we make ourselves.

Why refurbished?

  • The price — often 40 to 60% cheaper than new, for the same job.

  • Proven technology — models that have run for years, without teething problems.

  • Sustainable — a second life for a machine is the greenest option there is.

When do you choose new?

  • Custom builds — specific dimensions, colours or a branded wrap.

  • The latest features — touchscreens, telemetry and energy labels of the newest generation.

How we refurbish

Every machine is fully stripped: cooling, payment systems and lighting are tested and replaced where needed. See how it's done:
