But I want the best price for the best options. IS there one made? I'm not sure. I know a few say they are. One's WAY more money. In the end there's too many decisions - so we go back to the basics -What we need.
What we can afford. The best we can get. I feel I got what I wanted. I hope - somehow - you did to. After that, it's all talk. What Nissan Crawler says are my feelings exactly.
I'm disappointed that Bendpak has gone to overseas production but that doesn't make me nearly as disappointed as the fact does that they told an outright light when asked where their product was produced.
My lift does have the "Made In China" sticker on it but it seems that most of them don't and there's only one on the entire thing. You have to wonder if Bendpak might actually go so far as to remove the stickers and this one was missed???? The first time I asked them where their lifts were made is when I was told by another company that I don't want a Bendpak because they advertise as being made in the U. I called Bendpak and told them exactly what that company told me and asked if what I was told was true.
They said that wasn't true that they produced everything in Santa Paula Calif. A trucker recently delivered a replacement runway to me for my four post lift and he told me that when he got his truck loaded at Bendpak their facility was full of shipping containers bringing products in.
He didn't specify if they were complete lifts or just parts or steel though so I still didn't know for sure. I'm sure people would be much happier knowing the truth about where their product was made instead of thinking they are getting a U. Most would probably still buy anyway if they knew in advance and had a way of knowing the quality is good.
You have to wonder how many people would never know though. In my case where that one sticker is on the bottom of the base plate it would have been easy to miss, especially if I'd paid someone to install my lift. I may never have seen it when they were installing it and always thought it was made here in the U. I guess if that's how it worked out then Bendpak is happy because you never would know the information they gave you was an outright lie.
Are you all that naive? Look up the rules before you go off accusing this company of deceit. They can call it made in usa if the prduct is assembled within the states. The components can be made anywhere else as long as they are assembled or repackaged in your country. If you want to be able to buy actual Made In USA products, write to your elected representatives and get them to change the rules over product advertising so that the goods sold as american are actually fully made in america.
Kevin54 Well-known member. Not exactly. China is the biggest buyer of old ships from around the world. I bet your lift was made from salvage steel from an old WW2 vessle. Yeah, I'm sure all of us have bought stuff made in China.
Guess what though? My skivvies say made in India. It's not, they lied to him. I bought a product from one place that was listed as "made in the U. I filed a credit card dispute and had it sent back. Was the product bad? No, I liked it. In fact, I found a place that listed the real place it was made, and I bought the same product from them. Simple, because they didn't f'n LIE to me.

Stew Member. Joined Jun 19, Messages Guys, Here is the deal with Bend Pak. They have not had a lift made in the U. I actually spoke with a VP from Bend Pak last week as a result of something that I read on one of these forums. He actually called me while he was on vacation with his family and he gave me a rundown of how they are built and the fact that they have quality people that pull 2 week shifts in China every 6 weeks.
If you call Bend Pak directly they will tell you that all of their lifts are made overseas and I experianced the same "Made in the USA" with a catalog company and when I asked them they said wow - don't know how that got on the page.
