Stained glass foiling machine opinions sought please?

Question

Hi, I'm thinking of purchasing a foiler for stained glass and am torn between the Glastar and the Diegel. I have read that the Diegel is the best but this is twice the price of the Glastar here in the UK. However I would sooner pay more if this one really is the best.

Is there anyone out there who has used both and has a favourite? Or anyone's opinion on either foiler would be great.

Thanks!

This is a specialized enough question that you would get better answers at one of the stained glass forums online.  

All a foiling machine does is center the glass under the tape and push the edges down - the glass pieces still need to be very clean, etc.
