I got the 10" premium from Andrews less than a year ago. The primary was centre spotted (very spotted in my case, the glue had run halfway across the mirror - but Andrews were very good, shipped it back and cleaned it at no cost to myself). I find the 9 mm OK, but the 6 mm has such a small lens and so little eye relief that it is rather unpleasant to use. Optically, it's not to bad though. I plan on replacing it with a Vixen LV pretty soon.
