A. Here's my feedback, Mark, and I'm not being facetious: buy your next unit from somebody who does!
Suppliers used to be expected to be much better than this; my first employer had full records for every machine they ever built, going back to the late 1800's even though it was quite expensive in the age of paper; in our modern computerized age where it is so darned easy and trivially inexpensive to keep records, failure to do so shouldn't be excused.

A. Mark, Try ANACHEMICA CHEMICALS, Montreal, Quebec. They know all about A.A. machines .
