Anybody receive their unit yet? Should start seeing folks getting theirs any day now. Would love to hear your thoughts.
The reviews on you tube were ok. But nothing mind blowing....except the 9 hour battery life and 4lbs... Then again , say anything negative and that woman from makro will tell you off in the next post...
Hello - The woman from Makro (I) has a name - Dilek. I have the highest respect for members and customers. Everybody is free to think and feel as they wish about our products and company. I never get involved in conversations regarding the performance of our products as it is up to the customers to decide - UNLESS any inaccurate info is provided OR we believe that the post is misleading the other readers. Please show me the post where in your terms I ''told off'' anybody.
PS - The battery will last 9-17 hours depending on the frequency used and other factors. Yes, the weight is 4lbs but it is not all about the weight but also the balance and ergonomics of a detector.
How do you think I knew she would respond? Because she does on EVERY OTHER Nokta impact thread!
In post #3 I stated...
It weighs 4 pounds..... this statement is TRUE.... yet she had to TELL ME OFF by correcting me " it about the balance and ergonomics". I NEVER SAID IT WAS POORLY BALANCED!!!! I never said it was unergonomic!! Why correct my post? Because she is pushing the machine.
I got the 9 hour battery life from a you tube video made by one of her non misleading "testers". The statement is true!! But yet she had to correct me. Again pushing the machine.
I also said she would reply shortly to tell me off... CORRECT!
This is NOT the makro/ nokta website. They have thier own forum!! Thats where people go to talk with Nokta about thier detectors. This is Treasure Net... not Makro net.
This is where enthusiasts discuss machines.
I find the responses more like that of a self appointed moderator.
Manufacturers can and do learn alot about reading conversation. Cutting off conversation and moderating normal forum chat is a poor way to conduct market research.
LET THE PRODUCT SPEAK FOR ITSELF!!!! If its that great why keep pushing it?
You are sending a test unit to a guy that started detecting 10 MONTHS AGO !!!!
I for one appreciate someone representing the manufacturer engaging users within the brands forum.
I was able to get an immediate response to a problem I was having, as well as an immediate resolution. That all came directly via. this forum.
But it was True! The customers are unable to decide because you always chime in to push the product! I didnt even say anything negative ....and .... in chimes Dilek! like every other nokta impact thread. Makros Helicopter parent.Everyone goes on about freedom and liberty....until you actually exercise it.
Some Nokta impact testers on other forums claim that the impact is 1-2mm deeper than certain machines!!?? Yet Dilek, you dont interfere? Please tell me how your testers know that in real life testing the impact is 1 or 2 mm deeper than other machines?
Isnt that misleading? Didnt you mislead the public last year with the release date?
But carry on responding until you feel youve "won".
I like the Nokta pinpointer, but your attitude and big brother presence has put me off your products for life.
I am not aware of other manufacturers activley engaging on forums with the buying public but it seems petty and unprofessional.
