After my post Fri. regarding  a charger problem:
A personal email response from Shane. a phone call from local rep Lars (on Sunday just as the superbowl was going to start!) who was contacted by Shane. He suggested that I go to local a local Woodcraft store and see if they could loan me a charger.  Monday morn 8:00 am- a response call fom Festool and a second-day-air replacement charger on its way.  Mon morn 9:00 am- a call from Woodcraft store owner who was contacted by Lars inviting me to come and get a loaner.  How could this have been any better?  ( But I suppose I'm preaching to the choir)     You guys were right. Good job!!

That is the normal for them, makes you all warm and fuzzy when shelling out 5 benny's for a drill.

You get a great tool and great customer service.  Why is that so hard for those other guys?

There isn't money in the business model to provide this kind of service.?  You get what you pay for.
