So far I have enjoyed mine. Lining felt very coil like for me. It does the work for you. Coloring went well. But solid black tribal fill was just a bit slow for my taste. Black&grey went smooth with the shortained stroke. If I could have one dream it would be to possibly be able to move the rotating magnet closer and further away from the armature magnet. I don't know if this would even be feasible. But in theory it allow for a soft hit even at high speeds. This by no means a diss at this machine. The evader is well built, runs smooth and consistent. A quality tool indeed if you like give in tattoo your machine.
