I have the Seig SX2.7L which is I believe (I think!) the same model but from Arc Eurortrade but with a bigger bed. Have a chat to Ketan at Arc Eurotrade, I've found their advice to be invaluable; they are selling a product but they seem very aware of how much the hobbyists talk to each other and therefore don't lead you up the garden path!

There are differences. ‘Free delivery’ and an extra year of warranty costs you that extra.🙂 Question is whether that extra cost is actually worth it. I don’t think so….

The SX2 is a much smaller machine 50kg vs 111kg.

I've recently purchased a Axminster SX2.7 mill. Axminster have introduced a v2 model which has a rotary dial for the speed control but basically looks the same as mine if a little more expensive.

I paid about £1,500 for it and the 3 year warranty drove the decision to by the Axminster version.

The SX2.7 fits nicely on the bench and has been cutting metal straight out of the box.

Definitely go for the 2.7 from Arc, I got mine from there a couple of years ago. At present I am machining 10mm slots in 25mm aluminium, not sure my old Axminster SX2 would be up to it. The only thing I miss on the 2.7 is the ability to angle the column. After I bought my SX2.7 I was a bit loathe to sell the SX2, and after consulting management kept it, very fortunate as I had a stroke last year, and in now resides inside in the mini-workshop come office. (Ex youngest son's bedroom!)

Sorry to be late replying, in answer to your question I am utterly delighted with it. I thought long and hard about which to buy, with spreadsheets galore, and I am glad I chose the one I did. Service from Arc was top notch.
