I could never be arsed plus I have a cheap tool aversion but I knew a few tradesman who'd quite happily buy Lidl/Aldi gear and were happy to take'em back when they died within the warranty period and so the cycle of renewel continued. Considering the high risk of theft nowadays it isn't a bad idea but it does I feel perhaps mistakenly reflect on your professionalism? Has anybody actually run one of their (Aldi/Lidl) tools under heavy duty trade use for over three years, I'd like to know to know whether my scepticism or distrust is warranted?
I used to buy Bosch multitools - guaranteed 3 years at over £200 a time. Had a few fail & never once did they honour the warranty. Decided s0d it and bought lidl/aldi. Two machines & 5 yrs later not one failure but £35 each.
Tool snobbery is only in the eyes of trades Customers dont give a flying fig.
