chokkie, I am banging the Ebac drum primarily because they are genuinely made, not just assembled, in the UK. Some models have a 7 year warranty that includes parts and labour and every machine comes with a 60 day buy back guarantee. One of the few manufacturers to still make hot fill machines, if that is what you want. Cold fill only, too.
The downside is the price. They are not amongst the cheapest.
Their website has all the details and a video of their factory, worth a look
