I had a tumbler that I got in 1986 that had a fair amount of use and the motor wouldn't start with out prop starting it. Plus it was loud , fill it up and you could hear it next door.
So for fun I sent them a email and asked if after 36 years you could still get motors for them so I could fix it. Thy ask what color it was so sent a picture of it and thy said to send it in for a motor replacement under warranty. Sent it to them on a Monday and on Saturday a fed x guy dropped a new case cleaner on my steps.
I found the original receipt and sent a copy back with it just for fun.
So had a chance to try it out and WOW you can't hardly hear it. Had it going on my work bench in the garage went inside to tell the wife that I was going to try it , she told me to close the door first. The old one would scare the dog, told her it had been running for a few minutes all ready with the door open and she didn't even notice.
At 65 if it lasts half as long as the other one I should have shiny cases for the rest of my life!
So any way I thought it would be nice to put in a good word for them.
