Nice elevator. I never rode in a Hitachi elevator before. Sure wish I can visit China. I really want to go there.

Besides, Hitachi and some other brand name elevator, other elevator manufactured in Asia include Fujitec, Toshiba, Misubushi, in addition to Schindler, Kone, Otis, etc.

So is the Korean Sigma (joint venture between OTIS and the Korean LG).

[seClip9]

Nice! Been to Beijing 8 years ago.

Have you ridden a Mitsubishi elevator yet?

[alpaljl]

I have. The mall elevators at Westfield Topanga are Mitsubishi. We have a Sony and Mitsubishi TV.

[musicfreakcc]

I have not seen one yet. I did see another hitachi elevator with mitsubishi fixtures.

[bearchoirfan]

If you're going to Guangzhou, have a visit to the White Swan Hotel or the smaller New Asia Hotel. Once I had a stay in the latter with my family on a relative visit. As we rode the elevator I found it out to be a Mitsubishi instead of an old local New Chinese product as expected!

You're in china now? For how long? Cool!

[neaelevator]

It seems that from watching Vincent561967's videos that most every elevator over in that area only uses bumpers. I wonder why? Very nice elevator by the way.

[hz6761]

Not only in Asia, elevators in Europe esing bumpers, too

[musicfreakcc]

There are many elevators in America that have bumpers, too.

[Daninafryingpan]

I've seen more elevators in Europe with sensors to be honest. Even my school's creepy elevator has sensors. =D

[bearchoirfan]

The choice between bumpers and sensors (or both) are based on the age and design of the individual elevator, and most importantly the orders of the clients. In Hong Kong newer elevator models utilize more sensors but bumpers are sometimes also present as a secondary safety fitting.
