We do some parts where we need +/- 0.0002" and then they need a bit of attention to tweak things as they warm up and after lunch break.
Overall though, I am happy with Haas; the initial cost is very bearable and in my experience they run for thousands of hours without significant maintenance.
An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
