The BOSCH company in the market of goods has always been distinguished by the quality and durability of the presented assortment of tools. Recently, dishonest sellers have begun to use the brand name. A fake tool will certainly work, but it will not correspond to the declared quality and capabilities. How to buy a quality product and distinguish it from a possible fake?
Instructions
Step 1
When choosing products under the BOSCH brand name, pay attention to the color of the case and the tool body. The color of the case and body for a professional tool is blue, and for a home craftsman and garden tools it is green. The BOSCH corporate logo on the case and case is embossed and has a deep red color. On fakes, the logo is usually glued on letters.
Step 2
The body of a real professional instrument is blue-black, while a fake one is gray-blue.
Irregularities are visible on the case from a poor-quality fake assembly - "burrs" from casting, backlash and large gaps.
Step 3
Information label on a counterfeit product made of thin film or plastic. On such a label there is no information about the country of origin, but there is an inscription in hieroglyphs. The product code (ten-digit number) does not match the product code from the BOSCH catalog. The paint on the switch is not neat and smudges. On a real instrument, there is always a button - a lock; such a button may not be present in a fake product.
Step 4
Pay attention to the warranty card and instructions. The warranty card of the original instrument must be A4, always pink with watermarks. The warranty card has a 16-digit number, tool marking, addresses of BOSCH service centers. The instructions must include a translation in Russian.
Be careful, beware of fakes!
