Difference in years

[Floridaprivateer]

OK, so shopping for a used 3030 as I can't quite afford a new one and am in the $1700.00 range. Wondered the difference in years, I believe there was an upgrade to gasket sealing in 2016, but don't know much else. Looking for input! Thanks Chris

The only difference is the old ones don’t have the new thicker gasket , you can get the new gasket and be good there.
Also the newer ones have a deferent arm cuff, something about the older models slipping when they got wet , I beleive.
I bought the old model brand new for a great price.
I’ve replaced the gasket and never had any trouble with the arm cuff, but haven’t done any water hunting.
Everything electronic is the same between the two models.
Get the best deal and don’t worry .
