Wickes have a three ranges: DIY (1 yr guarantee), semi-pro (3 yr) and
full
pro (5 yr). Then the Hitchai range at 1 year. I know of no other pro
tool
with a 5 yr guarantee.
That's because the manufacturers of professional tools don't need to
give a 5 year guarantee in order to sell them, rather suggesting that
these are wannabee products aspiring to a market.
Kress of Germany is not a wannabee product.
In the UK market that is exactly what it is.
Once again..."Kress of Germany is not a wannabee product."
Where can I buy them in the UK with a Kress label?
A label freak! Wickes sell them under their name.
If a maker has faith in their product then they will stand by long
guarantees. Look at 5 yr guarantees in some auto makers now. No low
quality car maker gives 5 year guarantees.
In this case the warranty is from Wickes anyway because it is their
private label brand.
RE-badged using quality products and they stand by the products.
No, Wickes (allegedly) stands by the products.
You got it.
They have a junk end product, a low mid range with three year warranty
and an upper mid range with 5 years.
Yep. They cover the market. Take your choice.
Wickes cover the market for them in the UK.
Yep.
I am sure that Kress would have prefered to use Wickes as a reseller and
establish the Kress brand.
I don't know.
It is amazing that someone defends companies offering poor guarantee
service of 1 year.
The guarantee is somewhat irrelevant
It isn't.
