Mine still makes good popcorn. They back their product, and will repair or replace at no charge. :up: They're pretty popular in SoCal.
Powerstands steals designs and has the items made in china. Take a looks at their tire tree, or the steering damper they sell. Straight up rip offs. I understand, according to a RRW article, that parts are even interchangeable between the GPR v4 damper and the powerstans rip off. Buy the real shit, woodcraft, or chickenhawk are two that I know.
