This afternoon I finally got around to turning in the old model Bosch PowerBox for the new thru their recall thing.
As I was packing it up I thought to try and save the hassle of mail. In a mad moment of inspiration I call Lowes since it seems they recently started handling more Bosch products and explained the situation.
Lowe and behold they decided to let me trade it in there at the store and said they’d take care of trading it even tho’ I didn’t buy it there and had no box or receipt.
Can anyone say regardless of any normal bigbox hassels that that was a pretty cool thing.
be high or beLowe just be cool

I just went to the building box (ie Reno depot here) to see the new 4000009 table saw. selling here for $678 cdn ( That would be about $20 us).
Gonna trade time on a job for a friend for it. So I wanted to see if'n it was all that!!!! They had a floor model set up and I got to try it out. The stand set up and knock down is a breeze. The fence seems rock solid.
I hope to have it in my hands in the next two weeks.
COOL!

Very cool. Most of the big box horror stories are self induced.

I bought the bosch 4000-09 with rolling / folding stand a few weeks ago and have been more than happy with it. I love it. I also have a Dewalt table saw that I have always used and liked, but wont bother any more for the hassle of setting it up! I took me a while to get the technique of loading the Bosch in my truck solo, but now have it down to a T.
