That's great! Here's a little info that might help you on your next purchase........ I have bought a lot of stuff from Summit over the years. Their same day shipping, online tracking #'s,customer service, and returned item policys are very good. I have never had a problem with them. They will also match the lower prices from any other legit vendor. Anytime I get ready to order something I do a search and find the lowest price I can find for that item. I then call them and they will match it. Right now I know of one vendor that's selling the SD MS 750, 850 cfm for $39.00 less than Summit. If you call them and tell them they will match it. Hope this helps. :)
