Getting my own rig. Debating what rig to get.

Hello, I’m fairly new to the steadigang. I’ve been using the Archer 2 and the M2 rigs with a g50x arm from my school. I now have to get my own rig since I no longer have access to those. 
 

I’ve looked at the Zephyr as a first rig knowing I won’t be using anything bigger than an Alexa mini with Cooke mini series even though that’s pushing it a little. 
 

I’ve also seen a new steadicam “Rever One Stabilizer”. And I want to know if anyones heard of it. For a full Rever rig it’s about 13k and the weight capacity is about 42 pounds. I feel like it’s too good to be true for just 13k. I’ve contacted a few operators that own one through the companies IG tags. Some say they had issues and some say they do not. Does anyone own or use a Rever? If so, what are your thoughts. 
 

Or should I just go for the Zephyr? 
 

Thank you in advance!

I would love to know what its like to fly/own one of these Rever rigs. They do look super solid and the price is there. Of course its a gateway steadicam.. but for people looking at the Zepher it seems like the Rever is the obvious move... right?
