I have bought a JJ Monster 33" and found it to be a great build. They use the mameroom designs, with the slikstik control panel. Very good with the communications and friendly. I would give them a huge thumbs up. I'm sure that they can do their own contorl panels. For a pre-built I found the little touches nice. (Casters, pull out drawer, concealed on/off switch, volume control)
I have also done business with arcades are fun. They did a control panel for me. They do a recessed trackball + they put plexiglass over the art. They were awesome in answering emails. The only problem I had with them was lighting my trackball. I had to do it myself because they were out of stock on their lighting kits. I was impatient and just had a friend install one for me. Great craftsmanship, nice and the price was great for what they did for me. Looking at how well they did the control panel, I am very confindent that they could build an awesome cabinet.
If you were looking for a compromise, get the cabinet from JJ and the control panel from Arcade are Fun. :)

I bought an arcade cabinet from Jack at ArcadesRFun last Christmas. It's been a great machine. A very fair price that included full cab and CP art and plexi cover; plus full customization and some other nice features; I've had a few minor performance / functionality issues here and there, and they've generally been pretty fast and responsive in addressing them.

I originally was going to get a cab and panel from slikstik in the summer but came across arcades r fun while waiting for slikstik to get back to me about shipping (I'm in canada) and decided to go with Jack and am soooooooooo glad I did. First, he responds quickly to emails. Second, he will customize a panel for you at no charge and he slaps on the plexi glass and your choice of art covering from mamemarquee. Third, the finished product (I just received mine this week) looks fantastic and it was CHEAPER than a similar panel would have been from slikstik and that is with me adding higher quality stuff/extras to the panel from Jack.
Man, after reading this thread I truly am so thankful slikstik decided answering my shipping question wasn't worth their time (this on an order that would have been over $2k) because if they did I'd have most likely bought form them and would most likely be waiting for something that may or may not ever show up.
Anyway, I recommend Jack/Arcades R Fun. I had a minor two week delay from when he first gave as my delivery date but meh, it wasn't a biggie because he delivered a great product.

For what it is worth I e-mailed Slik Stik this week with a question about the U360. They got back to me that same day. I realize this is not the same as a question on an order but I did think it was interesting they got back to me quickly.
I was asking about stainless steel pearl tops for the U360. They said they do not carry them. I like them based on the Retroblast review. Any idea where else I could find them for the U360?

I ordered from Slikstick in July and have yet to recieve my control panel. The last e-mail I got from them was 2 weeks ago. and I have not heard from them since.. I sent 3 e-mails a day to them since and no response...I am starting to lose my patience, and thinking of calling me credit card company to reverse the charge.
