Description:
I quite like buying machines like this which were assembled outside of the USA - this one comes from Canada, and I'm imagining a lower import tariff into fellow ex-British Empire countries like Australia as a result.
This one is sadly very broken at the present moment. This might not seem like a great pity because it's so common, but in fact it's quite a rare sight in Australia. I've put a great deal of effort into it and still haven't been able to pinpoint what the problem is.
