100% absotootly get it!
We had nothing but trouble for 2 years with minor problems getting =20
decent sewouts...
then the warranty ran out, and we opted for the extended package. =20
$100 per month, plus a
'deductible'...I don't even know what it is...I don't write the checks.
Anyways, week after we signed up, got a call-WITH the extended =20
warranty comes a head to toe
service check up!
Tech showed up-he had no idea we had a machine-he's only an hour and =20
a half away...no one
ever told him.
Spent a day here...and solved every single problem we had run into-=20
the red baby had never, ever
done such nice work! It was all minor adjustments...plus he showed us =20=
some tricks and tips.
And then...a month later...the needle bar came =20
down....cachunk...thud...nothing.
The rotator cam follower whatchamacallit snapped right off!
Called him, he ordered the part, 2 days later installs it, all fixed, =20=
another quick checkup...
and no problems in the past year-he was here again last month for the =20=
annual checkup.
Our $100 per month bill covered his trip, everything except the 'co-=20
pay' amount which was
trivial. What WOULD it have cost? Figuring his travel time, minimum =20
bill, couple hours here,
the part...I'd estimate a $500 or more charge. Herb, Rod, you =20
probably would know.
The peace of mind knowing that the warranty is still working is well =20
worth it-just the annual
'free checkup' is probably normally a $300 or more bill if we had to =20
call him 'off warranty'.
Now, if that little part hadn't broken and the needle HEAD had gotten =20=
damaged instead...
I've heard that can cost THOUSANDS! But with the warranty....sleep =20=
easy at night!
That's my 2=A2 worth!
I'm paying MORE than that monthly for the extended warranty on my =20
digital printer...
because the print heads on THAT have been replaced twice in 6 months-=20
at $3,000 per job!
