There is probably some other guy out there who has more than one set and it’s the other way around. More over, ASM has the best QC in the business and what most of you call defects, I think is just the nature of clay chips and not defects at all anyway -- just my two cents, not trying to piss anyone off.
The talk about the inlay size on the H mold is definitely not accurate. I have inlayed chips on both the H mold and HH mold and both inlays are the same size ( 7/8 ). The first circle around the inlay on the A, CS, HH, and CD mold is all the same size (1"). Ok, ok for those of you with your micrometers ready it is slightly different but it’s LESS than a 1/6th of an inch variation. The H and Roman molds don’t have the circle it just goes right into the H mold area but its still 1" so they all basically have the exact same amount of area for an inlay. I can’t speak of the Fleur.

First, regarding the defects on the Roman. Yes i agree it sounds silly, but i have been on this board for quite some time and i have heard many bad experience surrounding the this particular mold. I have not heard any members having bad experience with anyother molds. THe truth, we will never know. I only base my opinions on my own experience and the similarity others have shared.
Second, the Roman surface is cleary bigger than the others by a notable amount and as stated by PC - its the only mold at the moment that offers a 1" inlay because of this
