I have never seen a Brodmann, and a customer asked me for advice about a 121 cm upright. Do any of you service this model? Actually, I would also welcome opinions about any model of Brodmann vertical or grand. Well made? Do they hold up? How are they priced compared to other good makes?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks again,</DIV> <DIV>Bob Davis</DIV></FONT><BR><BR><BR> <DIV><FONT style="FONT: 10pt ARIAL, SAN-SERIF; COLOR: black"> <HR style="MARGIN-TOP: 10px"> Gas prices getting you down?
