Cheap thing to cheap price!

The generator was delivered quickly. First, I noticed that the box smelled strongly of petrol and oil traces in the protective bag were. Obviously, gasoline and oil were already been filled, one may send the so ever? The actual error was that the air filter housing was deformed (made of metal), as if someone had beaten into an ax. In an intact plastic cover was mounted. This can not be passed unnoticed, which must have been ignored in the Chinese manufacturer. In my complaint I got the offer to replace the deformed part, the thing with the petrol and oil was supposed to be due to the "extremely rare case" a test run at the manufacturer. I asked for replacement of the entire unit, after which the Lord in the company Bergland entered too readily. "We let the unit of GLS pick up." On the appointed day came DPD, took the package with the appropriate papers from. Five minutes later, GLS, the parcel went to pick up also, of course, no longer went. One day later, DPD brought the package back: "Too heavy, we must not be transported." On the second try came GLS.
Soon came a new generator. Again oil and petrol residues in the carton. This time the switch crumbled to engine stop at the first touch, also the plastic cover to protect against contact with live parts (back of the sockets and switches) was badly damaged. Not as bad, but a consequence of fuel vapors: The plastic Werzeugetui also like dry leaves disintegrated. I asked via e-mail, this time to replace the damaged parts, which worked. However, the plastic cover was not quite identical: the eyes were missing for screwing. After I've tinkered me for two holder itself, the device is now ready for use. The engine starts to super, power comes, everything seems to be working, let's see how long.
Another significant point, however, I still I have this device chosen mainly because of the tank capacity was indicated by 15l. According to pump into the empty tank (the no bumps or something has) fit the gas station just 10,6l to overflowing. This is in my opinion a serious misstatement.
Conclusion So: if you want to afford a Honda for 1000 and on deals like this relies, should be clear about it, that these devices are only just still in working order and sometimes require some tinkering own. The devices at the hardware store to see some - up to another painting - just like this, but are much more expensive.
The company Bergland (sounds like Berlan) was very cooperative and friendly, but I did not feel that this story was a rare individual cases.
