    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

    We upgraded to the ATH W24 LED 2D and the difference in balancing speed is huge. The automatic data entry saves a lot of time and the results are consistently accurate. Even our less experienced technicians find it straightforward thanks to the clear LED display. Really impressed with the build quality too.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

    We upgraded to the W142 because our old balancer couldn’t manage van and light-truck wheels properly. This one has no issues at all. The LED and laser positioning make weight placement simple, even on larger rims. Only reason for 4 stars is that the machine takes up a bit more floor space than expected — but absolutely worth it for the capability

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 

    The W142 has been running in our tyre shop for several months now and performance has been flawless. The automatic measurement saves time and the truck modes are very accurate. Our technicians like the simple control layout and the pneumatic brake system. Brilliant machine for high-volume, mixed-vehicle work.
