    ARS vs. Freedom Breeder racks?

    We are getting ready to start upgrading our racks and just wanted to get some additional input from other breeders that have experience with these rack systems.
    We are currently leaning more towards the ARS 7010's because of the overall finished look of the product. Unfortunately we can't go with the 7030 due to not being able to fit it thru doorways and space.
    Living here in the desert of AZ, the one thing we like more about the Freedom Breeder is the changeable ventilation levels, but I'm pretty sure we can just cover up some of the holes in the ARS to help with humidity if we need to.

    ARS racks seem to be higher quality. I have a number of their tubs and a single level (with the wheels) 7030 rack that I am trying out before I decide to drop more money into them. I haven't had mine very long, but i really do like it, and would recommend ARS whole heartedly.

    I have both and although I like the guys at Freedom Breeder the ARS are made better.

    I have a freedom breeder rack for my adult females, and it hasn't exactly knocked my socks off. it's sturdy, the heat panels work, and the ventilated tops are a great idea. however, the heat seems somewhat unevenly distributed, the tubs seem old, and two of them don't fit exactly flush. Jeff was a great help and they're not hurting for customer service or responsiveness, but I'll probably go with ARS for the next one.

    I have ARS and love them. Originally, I ordered through them because they are closer to me and thus had cheaper shipping. Glad I did. Brian has great customer service and a great product.
