Hi guys,
having used a bc1000 and own a 90xp i would say the bandit is my choice... can handle anything a bc can and has the lift and crush that the vermeer lacks. Also the bandit is built like a brick s**t house with no frilly plastic or fibreglass like on the vermeer. Also it has slide pins for changing the knives as opposed to the vermeer with atlest 8 bolts to be undone... The only downfall is the weight and the long length compared to a compactor vermeer unit. My machine has a deutz oil cooled engine which means minimal maintence on the radiator or coolant. Just my two cents....
