What do the different equipment conditions mean?
The rating reflects the equipment’s age and appearance.
During the refurbishing process, major paint flaws are touched up and heavily rusted parts are replaced, along with high-wear parts like springs, position sensors, and handpiece tubing. Still, some packages just look better than others, and that’s where the ratings come in.
Whether it’s labeled Fair, Good, or Very Good, each equipment package goes through a multi-point inspection in order to meet our high standards and earn A-dec certification.
Take a look at the chart below to see the differences.
