I always laugh at people that bring up a lifetime warranty. First even if I pay 5 times more. If I am prevented from changing parts often, I have won.

Second, I will tell you having been on both sides of the counter at auto parts stores. They will only give a person a set number of free parts and then turn the customer away. Now I nor anyone else can tell you what that number is. It will depend on many factors. But no one will get unlimited free replacements.

When I had a mower shop, the worst competitive crap made, had the best warranty. A good warranty does not mean you are getting good product.

Last what good is a lifetime warranty if you are either constantly changing the part or worse, stranded?
