QUEST: Which Machine is the right one for me? Survey

Thank you for reaching out for help in making that important decision. It isn't often we face such a major investment in high end equipment, so we want to make sure we're making a knowledgeable one, avoiding regret.

We'd normally take our time and compose a long email with options for you once we read your answers, but as the holiday shopping craze is already upon us and our Prosumer Equipment Consultants are already busy with back to back calls, we decided to make it EASIER and FASTER for you.

We've put up all the information you need to know to make that knowledgeable decision ON OUR WEB SITE.
Simply click here to access it.

The only thing we didn't do is choose THE ONE for you from our popular shortlist. This does require expertise and we offer it to you over the phone or in our Sydney hub.

If you do wish to proceed with completing the questionnaire below, we'll email you a link for booking once receiving your survey.

Looking forward supporting you with your decision making,
-Di Bartoli Prosumer Equipment Team
