Smartreloader scale & dispenser

I was thinking about getting a hornaday but decided I'd give this one a try. If anyone was thinking about getting one of these I would recommend it. The only con would be the buttons, the #'s & words are white on a yellow background and can be hard to read in certain lights. I paid a little less than 150.00 for mine but that was a year or so ago.

I must assume their brass separator actually does a good job.
Should be CheapoReloader
Dunno why the name includes "smart"; they're obviously made for folks who just can't afford good equipment or don't know the difference.

So just what makes it obvious? Did the one you use not work?
I have heard horror stories all over regarding Smart Reloader presses and such. I would almost beg you to consider used name brand equipment instead. Specifically breakage and ergonomics.
I don't have one of there reloading press's. This was not meant as a review of there entire product line as this is the only thing of there's I have. I HAVE & USE (unlike most who bag on it) and it does what it was bought to do. Do the other scale & dispenser's do anything else this one can't? No. So go buy that RCBS for a couple hundred more, guess what it is made in China to.
Just my opinion but I'd rather buy used good quality on e##y than economy grade new. Apparently lots of others feel the same way since the prices of used stuff s skyrocketed over the last year.
What makes it economy grade?
FWIW I got my Hornady dispenser on sale at Christmas from Cabelas for $170 shipped.
