Can't calim to know anything about organs but have just had a look at their website They seem to be quite "serious" instruments.

ok - nothing quite as grand as that - you won't need a cathedral to put it in but you couldn't get it on the bus :-)

Looks like the smallest model they make is 23 stops with two manuals and 27 pedals. Still a good sized organ for home!

It's a three man lift, minimum.

I personally don't want three men lifting my organ although three women would be just fine. I have a complete list of instructions detailing my preferences for these lifts and how to go about them.
