Hi daryl j & peacock, The Nexen is not really anything like the usual Asian machines eg Artison, Samuk etc which as I said are badged products, we actually own our own factory and the quality of our machines is of the highest order and can compete with the so called big boys very well (both in price & performance) and handle any application thrown at them...if you want more info go to wwwdotnexenlifttrucksdotcom or call me 01502 532211.
