USED E. T. ??
Are you looking for a used Emery Thompson Batch Freezer? Well,
you're not alone! Out of the 40 or more phone calls I take in a
given day, 15 of them are looking used. At any given moment there
are over 80 used Carpigiani’s, Taylors and other batch freezers on
eBay…but no Emery Thompson’s. Well, to be fair there are three used
ET’s up there but they’re older than me! Emery Thompson is the most
sought after batch freezer in the world!
Personally I think starting up or running a business with someone
else’s worn out machine is a terrible business error. What is more
important to your business investment then the one machine that
makes the product that you sell? If it goes down…what then? Call
Steve Thompson? I hope you will, but be prepared to wait 4 weeks
while we hand make your new Emery Thompson.
If you do find a used machine here is a simple rule:
If the front
EMERY THOMPSON
name plate is black and silver, it was built before 1996 and
contains trace elements of lead. This metal, called dairy metal was
the standard of the dairy industry but was banned in 1996. No health
department in the USA or Canada will give you a permit to run this
machine! Period. End of story.
If the
Emery Thompson
nameplate is light blue
and silver, then the machine is 15 years old or younger. It might be
a good machine. You can call me @ 718-588-7300 and I’ll give you an
assement of its usefulness in your business. Any used piece of
equipment is only as good as the person who ran it and maintained
it…..but you knew that.
