Companies always change warranty terms when it endangers their profits and sometimes even their existence.

Companies always change warranty terms when it endangers their profits and sometimes even their existence.
- hellotomyrars 6y agoThis is a pretty scorching take in context. I’ve noticed the warranty on most of the power tools I’ve purchased are 3-5 years but only 3-12 months for commercial use. Of course there is a reason for this. I’m going to use this impact driver a few times a month. A construction company might use it several hours per day. The purpose of the warranty is to guard against a defective product, not abuse. Everything has a service life and if my drill craps out on me a year in and I’ve barely used it that’s probably no fault of my own. I don’t trust companies to not abuse most tools and certainly warranties ebb-and-flow in their consumer friendliness, but this is a pretty absurd take on this specific case.
