a question about a company
(OP)
Hello everyone
I'm willing to buy a wet diamond saw to cut some carbon fiber and glass fiber composite samples. I'm working on a budget. I came across a company called UKAM (http://www.ukam.com/) that sells such products for affordable prices. However, they are rated as F in the BBB and have some bad reviews. But unfortunately they have what I'm looking for. a lab size wet diamond saw called 6001XP smart cut.
1. Do you have any idea about this company or product
2. do you know other companies that sells similar products but they are reliable?
by the way, a tile saw won't do the job!
Appreciate your prompt response

Being in business over 50 years would be an indication that they know what they are doing.

RE: a question about a company
Thank you for your prompt reply. How did you know they are in business for 50 years?
What made me worry too, I have read couple more bad reviews about the company in another website....
Do you have any info how to make sure they are a trustworthy company?

One question per topic is sufficient.

Could you please tell me why should I delete my question? I don't think I violated any rule in the Eng-Tips
Appreciate your explanation

If you start multiple discussions on the same subject, you waste everyone else's time, and yours, just keeping track of what was said where.

RE: a question about a company
I know that it could be read 2 ways. One way is they have been around for 50 years. The other way is that they have X employees with Y years experience each that added together is 50 years experience, even though the company may only be 5 years old. If they are using the second method to get 50 years experience, I would stay away, too!
You need to ask yourself how much their business rating and being in business matters IF they have the product you need to do your job? If you are looking at a one-off purchase, price might drive where you buy it. If you are looking for a long-term supplier of machines and supplies, then you need to look at which company will work with you to get the end results.
