I got mine straight from the genuine source:

Its not cheap, but it was worth it and it did show up very quickly. I believe all others are clones. Not to say they won't work but if you've got the cash for it, I say go original. I think I saw a thread on reddit or maybe it was here a couple weeks ago about someone who bought a geetech RUMBA and had a bad time. I'll see if I can dig it up.

But I did get a cheap clone of the full graphic controller off ebay that works fine.

Mostly because I want to add a dual extruder on my new build. Which brand of Rumba board is the best? I've seen geetech have one but what do you guys use?

Also why doesn't solidoodle start going to quality and get away from using cheap stuff. I see tins of places to improve, from well nuts on the bed screw, to collars on y rods, going e3d v6 extruders. I think this is the reason their new products are duds is bc they China-tired and cut too many corners.
