Agreed in the $800-ish range, the 630tss is a great option if trying to avoid going into $1000+ kranzle territory.
unfortunately the AR isnt typically mentioned cause needs a proper 20amp circuit and receptacle. Not a dealbreaker, but also not “plug and play” for many people
For certain items I agree a buy once cry once may be appropriate, but you can literally buy three active 2.0 for the price of one kranzle, and they’ll have pretty comparable real world performance.
So even if you get 2 years out of an active and it burns up just after warranty, you could buy it twice again.
And kranzle I believe still needs maintenance, so there’s still some costs of consumables / etc to consider if looking at costs over let’s say 5-10 years.
Not saying the kranzle isn’t worth it, just repeating what I’ve said before that the active and their 5 piston pump offers a ton of bang for the buck.
And no I’m not an active fanboy by any means…in fact I basically tried every other option around the price range in order to avoid Active, but ended up getting the 2.0
