Allen tools (Danaher) warranty?

[Lyaec350]

I was thinking about picking up the set of 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" breaker bars from Allen @ Menards or Fleet Farm because I like the handle design better than the (raised panel) Craftsman breakers... What is the warranty like on these? If they break do I have to mail them in or can I just exchange them at Menards or FF? The same question would apply to the impact sockets...

Where you purchase these should warranty them as well.

Interested to hear the answer to this. I've been wondering how these Lifetime Warranties work when the store is not the sole supplier of the item.

Good to know. I will ask Fleet Farm if they exchange broken tools as well.

if they dont do exchange it then you can call Danaher to have warranty replacement... it is same thing with Gearwrench....

I bought some Gearwrenches at Sears, but when I asked about the warranty exchange, they told me that Sears doesn't do the exchange. You have to send it back to Gearwrench. Don't know if this is a Sears Corporate Policy or a Store Policy. Anyone here have any experiance with Sears and Gearwrench?

my sears store will exchange it for broke one....which i did few times but after i decided to get craftsman ratcheting sets and it is lot of better and strong... but all of labels on gearwrench said if broke or not happy then call Gearwrench (Danaher)...

Sears likes to make it difficult for you to replace GearWrench because by the time they wear you out on replacement you just buy the Craftsman set.

Could be, but I have both Cman and GearWrench and they damn near the same thing!

well my dad had gearwrench set and i used it few times but sometime it get stuck while i was ratcheting. even my dad tried to break the bolt loose with it... so i told him that it will break really quick and it did... so i saw what my dad did with gearwrench and i decided to buy craftsman sets. i had that craftsman ratcheting wrenches sets and they work great and no problems. it is been four years since bought sets.
