LOVELY BRAND-NEW KONE EcoDisc Elevator in XXI at Roosevelt Field, Garden City, NY

[nospeakamericano97]

Uhh are EcoDiscs traction?

[suzzex]

@nospeakamericano97 they are just fine & dandy.

Lol I like your reactions (Holy S**t!) lol i thought you got stuck!

[JonElevator]

I found a dead 400A indicator!!

[suzzex]

Link me.

[suzzex]

As you may recall in Skype calls, I am not a fan of any MRL, including 400A. Also, I heard you say plenty of good things about that elevator, and you said you really liked it.

[JonElevator]

I think those are OK, although I did like that 1st and 2nd car for its motor hum. My like faded on Bank 2 due to creaking and bouncing. But I'll just be more attached to the Westinghouse main elevators. But I really like the EcoDisc hum. MRL is just better, performance wise, energy wise, and speed wise.

[suzzex]

I respect that you like MRL elevators, and that you have your opinions with Schindler, but I would really like the favor returned and I would like you to respect my opinions.

[JonElevator]

Well, I do say to you that like what you feel like, but just know that I may not like everything you do. But the only thing I don't like is when you ride one new KONE and assume that all other KONE installations reflect that XXI elevators bad traits, there is some really nice KONE elevators out there, just dont be too quick to judge. I know I rode mediocre 400As. but by no means did I call every other one bad, I'm sure there are nicer ones.

[suzzex]

I don't. I have other opinions based off of other factors. I am tired of you and other people judging Schindler. I also love KSS, but not 370, and especially not when it is like this.

[JonElevator]

We judge them because not everyone, myself included does not like them, and it now seems that your having trouble getting over that fact.

Here is your email:

JonElevator has shared a video with you on YouTube:

The 400As I filmed, that 1st car had the fried indicator AND car chimes, I didnt notice the XXI car chimes out. Bank 2 of these is crappier, but overall I think these are quite sufficient. These do have a similar motor hum just like the KONE EcoDisc. You know I would rather prefer Gen2 in here, but I really prefer the Westinghouse main hospital elevator here actually, PinePowerLI has a better video of those.

UPDATE: 1/17/10: The indicator is dead! Nice one KONE!

[dea41396returns]

That lantern is NOT delta (to LIElevators)

[lielevators]

I said the ARROW was Delta

[dea41396returns]

but it isn't...

[elevatorsonly]

This is sort of a Schindler wannabe....

[suzzex]

Is that in a good way? If it is, you have just made my day...

[LittleRockElevators]

That fan is pretty loud.

[suzzex]

It's Otis status!

[revo8778]

That was my 13th KONE.

[suzzex]

GRR! I PREFER DOVER! :P

[revo8778]

I actually like the motor noise...

[suzzex]

I like the 300A motor in H&M better.

[maggio211]

Very, very smooth!
