So, long and short.

My tablet is great. I love it to death. But it's been a bit fucky, and I don't want to wait until it's officially on its deathbed to get a new one.
I've been admiring/longing/pining for a Cintiq for as long as I can remember, and I'm in the position to be able to get one with some financial assistance.

I'm looking for opinions! I want to make it clear - I am only looking into getting a Cintiq. I know there are other brands. I know they are cheaper, and I know they might be of comparable quality. I appreciate the input here - but I am looking into Cintiqs specifically! 

I am really terrible with specs, and what the benefits of each product is. The ones I am looking the most into are:
13" HD

and

22" HD

There are touch options, but it increases the price signifigantly, and I'm not entirely sure what the benefit would be or if that is an option that I would benefit from personally, so if anyone has experience or feedback to offer, I would be super grateful!

I've never really looked into this expensive of an investment before, but my tablet has served me well for the past 7 years, and before that my little bamboo was a hard worker too. 

Thanks for all of your help!

Don’t go for the companion, I had mine just past the expiration if the warranty and all of a sudden it would just shut off. They have issues with overheating and apparently it’s a common problem which my geeky husband was unable to fix. Then, the screen has just turned black and i can’t get it to turn back on.... ugh. I can send it in and pay half of what I paid for it new to fix it (which I bought it for $2500) so I’m quite frustrated with it.
I started looking into the issue and apparently after a few years others were having the same issues. So I’m bummed about that.

Not sure how many of the same problems would spill over into the kind that have to be used in conjunction with a computer.

As for how it was to use it; I absolutely LOVED IT. But, alas, I can’t afford to replace it every year or so :(
