Neo flex dead after a year
Just sharing my experience on the Neo Flex. I paid $100 for it.
My neo flex is falling apart after a year and a half of not quite daily use, 1-2 shots. It was rinsed after every use. Saved money over the coffee shops for sure…. pulled wonderful shots but am pretty disappointed with the longevity. Pinholes developed in the plunger top that shoot water into the ceiling, pin won’t stay in the handle, plastic broke off of the seal edges. Had the arm for the gauge blow off 6 months in- fully cracked the plastic under pressure to complete failure. Flair replaced it, and I’m very grateful for that. It’s pretty much dead. I pulled maybe ~500 shots before it went to pieces.
Are the next level Flair machines that much better or should I be considering another manufacturer? Id rather the next one be a buy-it-for-life machine and I’m willing to spend a little money here. Thanks :)
