I had a Badger 350 and had nothing but trouble with it.

i'm working now with my first airbrush. It's an AZTEC 470 and I'm very happy !
It's very simple to use and reliable.

I just ordered a Badger 360 universal on some friends' recommendations. I've also heard that Iwata makes excellent airbrushes, and Tamiya as well. A lot depends on how much you have to spend. If you're on a tight budget, Testor's Aztek line will do a fine job also.

I've been using a Badger 200 single action for years with no problems what so ever. I intend to upgrade to a double action and after lots of looking it will be the new Badger 360 Unuversal. The Badger 155 Anthem is a very good single action as well. Having said that there are alot of good airbrushes on the market. My Badger 200 was second hand and a bit bent and battered but it works perfectly, says alot for the make.
Happy airbrushing

I've just switched from the aztek dual action airbrush to the Badger 175 Cresendo and I love it.
It comes with 3 different size needles so you can pretty much do anything with it. I've used it for about 2 months now and it isn't really any harder to clean than a Aztek just different. And I havn't had a bit of trouble with it yet.
