Well DI, I have but one thing to say.
I TOLD YA SO!!!
Orphans indeed, with a grand total of 2 years of repl. parts available. I am sure there are a few ticked off Kavo Eq. owners out there. As a sales rep who sells Kavo handpieces I have to rethink that decision, given all the dentists that bought a Kavo chair at top dollar only to learn that in less than two years no parts will be available.

This is probably just for the US. Remember, KaVo is huge in Europe.
