Yamaha YCL 650 Disgusted!!

I purchased this clarinet from ww/bw about 3 yrs ago and right from the start there was a problem with the clarinet!

It will not play a chalumeau B4 natural fingering. i have had it to the local repair guy several times and he: poked holes in the sides of the pads (to prevent bloating), tightened my screws, slightly unbent some keys, checked for leakage with a light, finally, we changed out the lower 4 pads..uh uh..didnt help. we cant find a leakage anywhere..so I changed mouthpieces, and reeds ..uh uh...the repairguy took apart the lower section and reassembled it..uh uh..didnt help..he is at a loss and baffled and I am just disgusted!! ..getting ready to ditch this and get something else..(I already have a student model YCL 250 that I used for outdoors and its just fine!)......any suggestions on a different brand that would be similar to the YAMMY CL 650?
