Which Versalaser?

Hi
I'm a complete novice in this field so I'm looking to pick some brains. I'm a school technology technician and my HoD has asked me to gather some information re laser cutters and what our best options are (we have a tentative agreement that the school will buy us one!)
We've done a bit of research and pretty much decided Versalaser is the way to go but can anyone suggest which model
I know these things are relative to what sort of use we'd make of it but, until we have one up and running and 'play' with it, it's hard to judge how often/what we'd use it for.
Could I ask what type of machine you use? What bed size or wattage? Do you use a honeycomb bed, extraction unit and rotary attachment? Do you have to replace the CO2 cartridge often? Does it need much maintenance/servicing? Also, auto focus or manual?
Apologies if these questions make no sense but, as a I say, I'm a novice. Any other advice would be welcome too.
