We purchased an E100 Wood Gun with a carbon steel boiler in 2012. We were told this was a very good unit. We have had problems since the beginning with the most recent a cracked tank. We were told the only way to fix the problem correctly would be to replace the tank entirely with a stainless steel one., and after 4 years the warranty only covers 30% of the repair.
