My wife and I liked and had been planning on purchasing the old one, which is still available for purchase for a limited time. The new one came out on Friday.
After reading a lot of info on this forum, the poly core of the new one worries me.
Two questions:
- Should we get the old one while we still can?
- If for some reason we end up not being able to buy the old version, does the construction of the new one raise any red flags?
Much appreciated,

Edit: I should also mention that the new one is almost $400 more.
