What do you mean by (at least) a lifetime warranty? How does it get better then a lifetime warranty? And why is something chinese made bad? What DAs are you using btw.

I mean considering the machine is no different than the others in terms of performance, it should come with a lifetime warranty in order to compete. Please read what I write before coming to conclusions. I said I dont have faith in machines made in china, that does not translate into something made in china is bad.

Just so we can put this issue to rest once & for all for the last time…..







Well that’s nice to know and your support I’m sure is appreciated, but looking at your 14 posts at face value, all but 1 of them were being critical/negative of 3D? I know things can come across different when they’re expressed though writing (especially on an internet forum), so moving forward you might want to consider this when devising your message. Especially when you seem to be a satisfied 3D customer.











I don’t think I’d coin it reluctance. I would say it’s more about being cautious and accurate with the information that has been shared. But remember, my preliminary thread several weeks ago shared all the specs. And prior to posting it I spent quite a bit of time with Tunch testing this machine and discussing different approaches to marketing it so I would like to say that I am differently versed in some of the information given. Since this, Tunch has been traveling to 2 different states and 3 (if not 4 by now) countries so I would imagine that he’s been pressed for time to brief his staff on all the ins and outs of this issue. The time zone alignment I know has been a huge challenge.



I don’t quite see where anyone has claimed the 3D polisher to be “better” then what’s on the market. I know I haven’t. I will say that it is certainly different then other offerings in many positive ways.









And I don’t blame you for attempting to make that educated decision and actually applaud your effort for doing so. I hope you’ll consider mine and Barry Theal’s offer to test out and sample any products you’d like. And speaking of which, I’d like to extend that invitation to ANYONE (even Erik Mejia :) )interested in doing this at either Barry Theal’s location in Manheim, Pennsylvania or in California at 3D’s world headquarters in Santa Clarita.

Please show me one post where i was critical of a 3d product. I was critical at the responses made by the support specialist to reviewers who post anything that is not praising a product.

I'd say it's quite different from both specs & actual SOP feel:



3D/HD Polisher:

5.8 Amp / 120V / 710 Watt Motor

2500-6800 OPM



Meguiars G110 V2

4.2 Amp / 120V / 510 Watt Motor

1800-6800 OPM



Porter Cable XP 7424:

4.5 Amp / 110V / 500 Watt Motor

2500-6800 OPM



Griots Garage:

7 Amp / 120V / 850 Watt Motor

2500-6800 OPM



(these specs were extracted from a quick Google search)

Anyone interested in reading your posts can determine for themselves. I can understand where you're coming from and see your point, but is there really a need to go into this any further? Please move forward.
 
What am I missing here?



I'm on 3d website under polishers/machines, the 3d polisher is only 40$ and the other options are 150-200$ like PC7424...





Is the 3d machine not a replacement for a PC7424? I thought it was suppose to be better, if it is great, but for 40$?



Thanks

That is a rotary, not the new DA. You have to go to "Detailing Kits" to find the new one.

....and most of us know that you can't judge a tool on it's specs alone, as there is a lot more to them then the power of the motor. I could care less about the warranty...Groits put a lifetime warranty on their DA and it's a total POS as far as quality goes. Just give me a well built machine like my Dewalt and Makita Rotary and I don't need a warranty.
 
Morning! I had the direct link to the new polisher in the first post.



Here it is again. :) 3D Car Care; Car Wash, Car Wax, Auto Detailing supplies, Car Polishers, Car Buffers & accessories store



If you have any questions about it, let us know.

i agree completely - When it comes to warranties, I can't help but think of the movie "Tommy Boy":



"But why do they put a guarantee on the box?"



"Because they know all what they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of s#!%. That's all it is, isn't it? Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I got spare time. But for now, for your customer's sake, for your daughter's sake, ya might wanna think about buying a quality product from me."



sorry, just had to.....

Only problem with that logic is I could turn around and make the generalization "the longer the warranty, the crappier the tool."



I bought a G100A (PC7336SP) from Meguiar's way back in 2001 with a lifetime replacement warranty, and I still have and use that machine today. It's getting tired now, sure, but it still works. If it ever does finally die, I can send it in and get a brand new G110v2 (or whatever they come out with next) without any hassles.

You could care less about the warranty, but for the more conscious consumer the warranty makes the difference when purchasing tools/electronics. most of us would consider a lifetime warranty means that the company stands behind their product. Its especially important when the products are being made in china, is your Dewalt or Makita made in china?
