Or do you have another bad experience?
Yes, unfortunately with gear that's a bit more expensive. As mentioned in another thread, we had quite a lot of problems with our Agilent Infiniium scopes (54800A Series, the first gen running Win95/98, and also with some 86100As which suddenly stopped recognizing plugin modules). 'My' not that old DSO9404A at work has already had two repairs, luckily enough covered by warranty but still not great.
Of course these could have been all just Monday morning lemons but it's still not great. At the end of the day, just because product made by a manufacturer are great doesn't mean another product from the same manufacturer is, too. Generally Agilent makes really good and reliable kit, but like other manufacturers they have their fair share of problems, too.
Therefore I think saying you can't go wrong with Agilent is a bit naïve.
