Since the plague started I've bought 82 items only had to return 3 no problems they take it back unquestioned, if sign up for prime free delivery you get Prime tv it's better than Netflix.

I bought the Reboot Cut 45 on Amazon and use it several times a week. One of the best purchases I've made.

.

If looking to purchase a plasma cutter, there is someone in BC that builds and sells them for a reasonable price.
He is an ex employee of a major welder brand and what he has done it used the best components from different machines and built a very good plasma cutter. price was less than $1000.00 and the consumables (tips ect) are readily available.
he was selling from Kijiji.

I bought one called a kick box or something like that. Its orange.
I use it all the time and it was a wicked buy for $250. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

Get extra consumables when you order it. I like the longer tips so i would suggest going with those.

I'm not sure about this specific product, but many, many products on Amazon are knock offs ..... so if it's a brand name you are looking for, and the price is low, be careful. Often times you can see in the reviews people claiming it's counterfeit and I recently came across this myself.

I recently purchased some 3M "genuine" respirator filters and a 3M "genuine" mask and one of the masks was, in fact, a copy. You could tell by the poor printing and packaging, the fact the neoprene was not the same. The plastic and cheap rubber on it was stinky and the plastic injection molding on it was rough. The other mask I ordered (a month before that) was completely different and you could tell the difference a mile away.

Hurst shifter boots are made some new place & they stink so bad I leave them outside for a couple months + many washes with different products , before I'll put them in a car.

Thanks guys for all the replies !
