Default Quality control?

Hi

I just received the beach hunter that I've send for repair. I pick it up this morning and after inspecting the machine I found cracks in the shell of the control box, also I got an invoice giving the following details of the repair "PCB, loop, switches possibly bad, replace calibrated, tested passed".

I email the service department and send the pics, I'll keep you inform.

Regards

Hem

Quality Control people must be real busy.....or real sloppy...
no excuse for something like that...especially on a water
machine! Hope they make it right for you. Gold Nuggets

Need to send it back again... I just went to the beach to test the unit, no threshold background hum, light indicators keeps flashing, waste about $ 8.00 on new batteries, the detector won't even detect my car, Now I have to re-pay for the shipping and wait 2 months to get it back...
