Default Buying first oxycon- is Extreme Oxygen still in business?

I'm setting up my first dual gas torch and have settled on using a 10 lpm oxycon. Specifically, the Ex20 seems reasonably priced and is available from several distributors. There also appears to be the possibility of purchasing direct from Extreme Oxygen at a substantial discount, BUT..

the website is a bit, umm, sketchy. No prices, little description. There's a phone number provided, but when you call, you get forwarded to another number to leave a message.

there's an old thread here (which I cannot post a link to because I havent posted before), but the last post is from 2017 and asks the owner if they are still in business, no reply.

So everything about this seems to scream DON'T! Unless anybody knows otherwise, I don't see buying direct, but now I'm wondering if it's even sensible to buy the unit from a distributor? Are replacement parts, service and customer support still available? If not, are there any other reasonable 10 lpm oxycons, or should I just gang two fives together?

Thank you!!
