I can recommend the L1200 for 35mm work as well and can confirm the previous comments regarding the mixing boxes etc. L1200 is very heavy machine, but I guess that's just what you get if you need to print those large format negs. Purely for 35mm it would be maybe a bit overkill..
My feelings are that Durst offering is/was one of the most used one, in Europe at least, so in this sense the situation could be worse as well regarding the spares etc.
About having multiple enlargers for different formats, I find this maybe a bit odd setup. I feel I would rather maintain one precise and top notch setup over multiple ones for different formats. But then again, I have photographed mainly in 35mm only.
