Well I got out today and tested the ace 250. I,m pleased with this machine on first impression. I like the weight of the machine.I like the way you can notch out when you want to.When it says you have a dime ,you have a dime.When it says you have a quarter you have a quarter.It will still take just a little while to get use to because I have a whites mxt also and its different than that one.The ace 250 is well worth the money.
