I own one with a CLS 500 color head and use it with 35mm to 4x5. It's the nicest enlarger I have ever used?precise, very even light, just a joy. The baseboard measures 25x27 inches so it really will fit on a desktop. I was in a lab Friday that has an 11x14 Saltzman enlarger?now that one truly is big....
