I tried tracking down the company several years ago and they are long out of business....I bought it 10-12 years ago, and it was about 10 or more years old then! Had to replace all the cords but that's it. It had been stored in a barn for 5 years. That's why I don't trust the timers or heat settings-just use the dials as 'reference' points Brand name is Quik Set out of Ohio. Works great-just wondering when it will finally die and I have to break down and buy a new one. But for $75.....I've gotten my use out of it! Seen new ones all over and nothing even comes close to half the weight of it! Roland
