What You Should Know, not to buy a fake punch Makita

In order not to run into dishonest sellers and not to buy a fake, it is necessary to get acquainted with our recommendations.

We recommend purchasing power tools popular brands in specialized stores, with the purchase of all necessary warranty documents.

We do not recommend buying a set of known-party tools. They do not produce such products. The kits usually include Bulgarian, hammer or a drill and jigsaw, and thus it is cheap.

We do not advise chasing cheapness! The low price of the instrument should you touch up on the idea, not fake it in front of you. Cheap - does not mean, qualitatively.

Factory Makita drills often are equipped with case for storage and transportation.

At external examination, you will be able to detect the main defects, talking about, that before you fake. If you found external defects, do not try to continue to hope, that lies within the drill prefabrication.

Opinion on the choice of instrument

Comment by Vitaly Konnova

It is funny and sad at the same time)) Already under way is a video posted, I do tool 15 years old, and all 15 , from year to year sculpt some friends here this nonsense - "Makita is not the same, Here used to be normal, and now all of China ". And the most interesting , that in fact nothing has changed, Makita has a 15 years ago, It was and remained. Even the country of production is not important, at about Makita 8 plants around the world and at all exactly the same quality control, that Japan , that China, in Romania. Moreover, many astray, that there are different types of assembly and ischyu Made The Japan Institute, so here ,production is distributed in the direction of and models, ie - light drills , as 2470, It is going at a certain factory and wherever you have not bought, at least in Japan , it is precisely from this factory. And in Japan collect only hammers SDS Max, and grinders in Romania, etc.. And further, manufacturer monitors the quality, by the fact that they offer a guarantee, and the marriage must not exceed 2-3%, otherwise the production becomes unprofitable. It is for this "brand" is not just a name , and quality assurance, and when you buy a proprietary branded thing - you are sure , bought quality , not pig in a poke. But with Chinese consumer goods all fundamentally contrary, there all the emphasis on price, Quality control is not to refuse work on time, but only on the, that it is included in general, on the purchase of such a tool is a lottery - lucky to work and a year and two, not lucky enough to die in a week)) Well, since I decided to write a great comment, then I will explain more nuance. Aside from this type of calculation of the forgery, the entire market can be divided into two, manufacturers and brands, manufacturer always has its own quality control and seeks to minimize marriage, trademark orders at third party refineries and quality control has no direct, only at the price. What is meant by "price", some Chinese factories the same product has different degree of quality and price, that is - you come and pick - that's the drill, but the price should be 15 dollars - and you will make on 15 bucks, choose to 20 , put on the best parts, in the end can do and 99% the original, but he will cost a bit cheaper than the original. This is what I, You want a good tool, buy from the producers, it is impossible to buy a cheap and cheerful, it does not happen)) Want to buy cheaper, best buy cheaper products, and not a fake, for example - do not pull Makita , buy Interskol, Fiolent, green Bosch, Skill, B&D, do not pull their, buy less decent trademark - Encore, Zubr, which, though it is important to trade on the market for years and they have not bought the lowest quality.
