I have an early model of one of these. Simple Centrifuge ...putting a centrifuge in every garage!

Not as well known as some of the other name brands out there but just as well engineered and put together. IMO.

Great customer service Too! They Really took care of me when i found an old abandoned unit at an auction. One of there earliest versions from like 12 years ago. Really helped me out with some hard to find pieces i needed to get the unit up and running.

That is encouraging that they take care of their (not "there, by the way) customers- whether the original purchaser or not.

The issue I have with a lot of these designs is the direct drive motor. It may not actually matter in practice, but I'd rather a) have the motor not be susceptible to oil leaking onto/ into it, but also, run the motor at a slower speed and use an overdrive (via belt, typically) to achieve high rotor speed.

The biggest problem I have had with mine is oil getting on or in the direct drive motor mounted under the drain.

The filtermaxx looks really sharp. Has anyone tried one? Because grease gets everywhere and what happens to it then.

This is exactly why I am drawn to the USFiltermaxx units.

Still, when you really break it down, there's a decently long payback period for getting into this game... .as you can easily be in the $1000-$2000 range for a setup to do WMO/ WVO etc, so sure, now you have virtually free fuel, but how much diesel would $2000 buy you.....

At $4/gal, that's 500 gallons of fuel before you're ahead......
