doesnt paint a great story…
I was tempted. I currently have a diff model Talon, and yes its always started easily. But ive had numerous issues with it.
- bag ripped around straps - not enough reinforcing.
- fuel cap leaked not long after buying. The cause of this is the washer between the cap and tank had completely perished!
- and now.. the final straw. The fuel lines have persished.
I would not buy any Talon product they are cheap and nasty…
Not sure about Talon. They had this same product advertised in December for $79 with $19 shipping. The reviews then were bad, so unless they've fixed issues with this model, I can't imagine it being a bargain. Any comment ODS?
Tightarse,
not sure the reviews were so BAD in December - although I will agree the above link looks bad if you want it to…. 5 year old blower?
I have never had an issue with any of my own power or gardening tools - BUT I am a gear head and cleean and maintain them - perhaps a little over the top at times.
As for the same Model being advertised in Dec - nope - it was a OEM brand MADE BY TALON for KMart.
Warranty is 24 months - these are new - and there is no trickery here - they are running these out due to model change - still if you just judge on the sheer number we have sold and our return rate -they are pretty good…..
ODS.
ODS, the thing that worries me most is that the person that posted the bad comments said that he emailed you guys a number of times for warranty issues, and never got a single response back. Have all the issues with leaky fuel, loose screws in the turbine etc etc been sorted? I'm seriously thinking of purchasin a number of these for my small business, but I don't want to be throwing good money away where I could be purchasing a name brand. You mentioned return rate - why are they being returned, and who is paying the postage?
Tightarse,
I cant find anyone in any posts that has emailed us many times - and I WOULD like to hear from them.
As for the "issues" you raise - I am unaware of any manucfacturing faults at all - with these items - and TALON - if there is an issue (and there has been with blades) took upon themselves an expensive recall project with all of the affected machines.
I mention the return rate - as it is currently - ZERO….. :)
After the initial DOA Period the warranty is with TALON (now owned by Husqvarna) as with all of our products. They do NOT shirk or take warranty issues lightly - and if they were really that bad - do you think they would stand by their products for 24 months…..
Hope that helps,
ODS.
@ODS: Thanks ODS. You sound pretty honest. Two final things I promise… 1) if it is DOA, who pays postage back? 2) Do you have service centres in the Melbourne Northern Suburbs. Cheers.
It says $99 on line. How do we get the 10% discount, and how much is postage to Melbourne?
