Midway Tumbler recall.

I just found this out. Thought I'd pass it on.

I had one of their large tumblers which broke one of its motor struts. Still worked OK but it was kinda noisy. Called Midway for a replacement strut, but they no longer carry the large tumbler or any parts for it. So they sent me two of the smaller, updated 1292 tumblers to warranty the large tumbler, free of charge and postpaid. They didn't even want the original tumbler back. Pretty good folks to do business with.

i bought the big midway a few years ago--it last about a week and something broke--send it back and they fixed it--it flew apart again--they sent money back and i bought a dillon--but still think a lot of the Midway Service.....Dick

Thanks for the thread. I have one of these. Never had a minute's worth of trouble out of it and I leave it running for hours at a time. Probably should check into this.

Regards,
Callahan
