Do we have room for a 2nd opinion?
I have two coaches (BTW ZipDees were not OEM) and one had a ZipDee and
one had an A&E.
My assessment is different. I found the A&Es to be stronger and less
likely to corrode. ZipDees tend to
suffer from electrolysis and unlocking them becomes difficult over time,
especially for seniors with arthritic hands.
