Mark @ Everlast

Well I'm usually a Miller guy BUT been looking at a little bigger tig unit than the Miller Dynasty 200DX. The Miller gear has had zero problems over the years but I like the looks of the Everlast Powertig 255 EXT.

My question is. Why do the Canadian Everlast units have a 3 year warranty and the US ones a 5 year warranty?

Now Paul, you know everything costs more in Canada. (for some reason I have never figured out)

Well if that's the case I'll go back to Miller. At least their prices are on par here with you folk down there.
Even if the prices are higher why less of a warranty?

Maybe us "hosers" put them through their passes more than the 'mericans?:stirthepot: I was curious why 2 years is taken off the warranty as well.

The Canadian welder warranties are in metric years, which are longer than US years.

How does that compare in "dog years?"

Could be but with the conversion it's supposed to work out the same distance and time.

If the question gets answered it's going to be really interesting hearing the reason why the warranty period is two years shorter in Canada for the Everlast product than it is in the US.

Just watch, I bet it will be volume or market share or to keep cost down "we had to shorten the warranty period" which we all know is cow dung.

If those excuses are it I will see a new Miller in the near future. :thumbsup:
