jmbfestool said:I know this was posted a while back but i completly agree with you still now festool have not changed and still will only repair a new tool and not replace and they dont even do a good job at repairing at all infact they are one of the worst companys for repairing. I have lots of trouble with the new festool drill T15+3 and making sure every one should know about it because its a disgrace. All the lads I work with at work never even hurd of festool untill they met me. They though it was brilliant the tools I had TS55, One hand planer and other tools but now I have told all of them about the experience I have had with the festool drill all of them say they will never buy festool tools.
Some time back I asked about other people's experiences with the T15+3 drill that jmbfestool reported. Nobody came forward with another bad experience. As I recall, jmbfestool's experience is with Festool UK. It is interesting that I remember reading a number of complaints over the last year or so about service from Festool UK. Hmmm. Is there a pattern?
Everyone has difficulty with a tool or service at some point and has a right to complain. But, I get the feeling there is a dead horse getting beaten here, since I have read essentially the same complaint several times in several threads. That is certainly your right, jmbfestool. But perhaps your situation deserves to be put into perspective. You are but one voice in the Festool universe. When the T15+3 becomes available in the USA, we should hear more about it on this forum.
From re-reading this thread it sounds like dustartist is reasonably satisfied with the outcome of his problems. Not totally satisfied, but reasonably satisfied. I hope I'm being realistic in that statement.
No, I don't work for Festool.
