A change in dealers or a lack of a quality dealer for a long time didn’t help E-One in the area either.

Locally e-one has had some issues. Mostly with trucks though. I believe carol stream and wilmette had both their ladders bought back by E-one due to problems since delivery. So every manufacturer has their problems

When Federal Signal owned the company they did a great job of running the company into the ground. Lot’s of manufacturing and financial issues. Once they were sold and E-One regrouped they are buck up at the top of their game in my opinion.

Any manufacturer will have their share of problems eventually, as we all know. I’ve been a fan of E-One, especially their aluminum ladders.

E-ONE has been around almost 40 years so they can’t be all bad. But all it takes is one time to get burned with a bad piece of equipment to go to the competition. Here in Milwaukee, they bought many E-ONE’s in the 1990’s with the last bunch delivered in 1998. MFD has bought nothing but PIERCE since that time witha few E-ONE’s still in reserve but not too many that I talked to missed the E-ONE’s but most love the PIERCE rigs.
