Parkside PPSK 40 B2 - keep or return?

[ajlelectronics]

Just don't try that trick where I work. We have send it back to head office to be inspected first, BEFORE we decide what to do. Rare to give a refund. If we are in a good mood, you MAY get a credit note. come in all guns blazing and demanding. ' There's the door, bye'

Within the confines of the Consumer Rights Act 2015, of course. Retail over the counter sales and online sales are treated differently under the Act.

@Retro Rust keep it, I've used my plasma cutter for chopping out car bodywork and wouldn't be without it

Doesn't get a huge amount of use as I'm only a diyer but it's still a keeper

yes, Online sales are different rules. In those cases, we just take the item back, Inform head office and they do the refund.

I’d have one with the integrated compressor in a heartbeat if I had 32A supply to the garage.
Keep it.

That looks like the 40a cutter with compressor. Was a thread on here stating they were only available in Ireland, 30a this side.Things must have changed since.
On the returns front when these things are stocked in the UK speculators will clear the shelves stick them on Ebay, Facebook etc. at a profit and return to store if unsold. At least they are also unused in original packaging but creates a scarcity.

They will run off a 13A socket OK, especially for thinner stuff (up to say 5-6mm steel). Get a 13A to 16A, (or 32A adapter), or replace the plug. Mine came with a 16A Commando plug.

I have found returns to Lidl to be completely painless. Indeed they don't even open the item to check all is there! Just give the refund in cash or card
