I have two Saunders easels I'm not sure if the Koseners are out there any more I like mine. Saunders makes a higher end "master easel" with knobs instead of slider-grabbers. Like on my 20x24 Saunders which cost more than my enlarger The Beselers you see out there now are definitely a step down from the Saunders My 11x14 Saunders is due for an upgrade as it is 30 years old and I got it used I've wanted to get the master easel but this thing just works. If your blades are not square and you can't just bend them back into place I'd send it back and get another one. Or move up to the master. At the renal lab the have regular sanders not the masters and I'm used to dealing with abused ones. I've had to resort to a pice of tape to keep the blades square on occasion as is the norm there.
