Furman Power Conditioners - can't complain about the service.

Hi all
Just wondering if any others here have experienced the after-sales service provided by Furman? 
Furman Power Conditioners - can't complain about the service....... because there is none!

I bought my Furman PL-8 CE some 3 years ago for light home studio use and for the past 18 months it had gone from a 10-30 sec delay to start up (click, then lights on/power up) to a yet to be understood formulae of random operation not that dissimilar to successfully picking lottery numbers ....well to now.... NEVER!
I emailed Furman last month and was appropriately filed as being #CASE1498647 (and then again last week) seeking advice and their local authorised repair shop. No response!

In hindsight, what a trap I have committed myself into buying expensive, imported Furman gear, adapting all my power leads to Schuko specifications to find myself stuck with a conditioner that has been "dodgy" for nearly 2 years and has now rendered my rig totally inoperable for over a month.

Am I wrong in my assumption that Furman customer support, aftersales service and product really sucks??

Did you buy direct? Unless you did, the retailer should be your first port of call.

Thanks, Dan

Somewhat challenging in this part of the world.  It was sold to me in a sealed box, then tested in the shop buy the authorized imported in Thailand  - Home Hi-Fi Co., Ltd. a hi-fi store in Bangkok.

I initially emailed them and followed up with a phone call (which was dropped when the questions became too hard) 3 months ago when the problems started to escalate, hence why I went to the manufacturer.  This type of "aftersales service" is not restricted to this company alone.
