Tennisman StringMaster Pro 46 or a Pros Pro Hornet stringing machine?

I'm looking to buy one of these 2 budget drop-weight machines and I'm wondering if there are any differences between them. The only thing I can see from their website is that the StringMaster comes with some pliers while the Hornet might not. I couldn't find much else online about them.

Does anyone have any experience with either of these before? Would I be missing out on anything if I chose one over the other?

I do not have experience with either machine, but I can see that Pros Pro Hornet has better spring assist base clamps, which can make operation much easier. The other machine looks like cone lock that takes more work to secure and release. You operate those clamps a lot for each racquet, and the spring assist bases would make a difference. That's the biggest difference between the 2 that I noticed. Just my opinion.

This was essentially the response I was typing out…then the board crashed.
