Diospinball, when I was telling my wife about the pin we got it was a good sales pitch. These machines are made for commercial use, so they are built solid. Don't worry about them breaking and the kids can play as hard as they want, no problem. Once the pin is in the house and I start to need to fix stuff I'm telling everyone to be careful. The wife says, "Isn't this made for commercial use and won't break." I feel your pain.
