 In short  , they are both high quality machines in their own right .

With the Texatherm you pay 3400+vat ?  Thats a lot considering the mediocre vacs and pumps used  .  You are paying for  a 'digital dash ' and some fancy controls which in real life add nothing to the performance of machine .  There is also a certain amount of waffle in the whole sales pitch  , for eg  ... the digital control on the pump allows for to select' 5psi incremental increases '     like what good is that ? on most machines a rotary valve allows you to select whatever you turn the valve to , any increase /decrease you want anyway .
The Enforcer has none of that nonsense  , just brute build quality and a large choice of internal vac/pump /heater options .   You could have a much higher spec machine for less than the asking price of the texatherm .

I agree with John. The Tex is all style but that isn't what pays the bills. Go for the most power you can. It's better to turn it down a notch or 2 rather than wishing you had more at the top end. Customers really don't care, as long as the job is done well.

I see you asked the same question on cleantalk and ' someone ' described the Enforcer as ' 1990s technology '  and it was 'liked by another shill ken Trainright  .  And you should buy one of nicks ' modern machines ' lol
Seriously take these shills with grain of salt , all they want to do it direct you to a sale no matter what the question is .

The Enforcer is probably the most modern design out there ,  Rain proof , 2" internal plumbing ,  great ergonomics.
Nick sells low spec American reject machines because he failed to get ' storm ' copy off the ground a few years back .

What John said ie, Enforcer over the texatherm
