Why I stopped buying Manfrotto

Arca-Swiss style is all I will use now. Say no to Manfrotto! I have several Kessler QR systems that also work with my Really Right Stuff plates. I'm very happy with this system.
 
Erik- which Swiss plate/receiver do you use?

When do you use it as opposed to the Kessler?

And do you feel that both are as solid and reassuring as that *click* of a locking Sachtler plate? (I know the Kessler has that added lever)

I'm looking for a system (other than Manfrotto) for the camera onto the Sachtler, camera onto Manfrotto head on top of my slider and bottom of my slider to QR onto the Sachtler.
thanks!

I have a couple Really Right Stuff plates that all work with the Kessler and you can get cheaper Arca Swiss plates on Ebay as well. Here is a review of the kessler QR system I did. I will not but any more Manfrotto plates or QR systems going forward.
