This is a question that has been doing the rounds for a number of years. There are no straight answers to this. Everyone who is in the market for tools wants to know whether buying a reconditioned tool is better than a new one.
A reconditioned tool is simply a tool that has been sent back to the manufacturer for the following reasons:
Cosmetic defect in the tool
A tool operating defect makes the client return it to the store
The client returns the tool to the manufacturer for in- warranty repair
Reconditioned Tool
Of course, there are other reasons why tools are returned but the above ones are the most important. Faulty tools are returned to the factory of the manufacturer; all defects are rectified. If need be, parts are replaced. These reconditioned tools are then sold to customers at a discount. You can easily expect a discount of 35- 40% on reconditioned Power equipment.
It is better to buy reconditioned tools than sending your used tools for repair. Getting modern equipment repaired or parts replaced is not cheap and may take several days and even weeks. Moreover, as each power tool has a number of parts, you will have to replace them when they wear out. This can prove to be quite expensive in the long run.
So yes, if you are looking to save money, reconditioned power tools may just be your best bet. There are several more factors which should be considered while buying new tools. It is a smart idea to spend some time online before buying ant thing.
