I have been eyeing some mafell tools for awhile, kss80 and pc1 jig saw but I feel the tools are overpriced. Not because they are not good enough but the lack of a multi year warranty (yes like Festool), the inability to handle them before buying, and the fact that there is only one seller in the USA. I am not trying to slam or get anybody worked up I just feel that the tools,are at a high price point without enough service especially down the road if they need to be repaired. What happens if Timberewolf goes under. Do all repairs have to be done in Germany after the 1 year warranty. I mean with these tools one would expect to keep them for years and are worth repairing. Is there anyway to encourage Mafell to broaden its distribution in the USA? I think it would go well for them as I see a slight slip in Festool quality of late. TW has been around for 20+ yrs. Warranty is done thru TW. You'll be fine. Or just buy festi and continue to work with no sack.

For jigsaw I have dewalt 20v barrel then I got hilti barrel 24v... you'll never look at another. Mafell are like 600. Please now that's ridiculous.
