Normally I have no issue with Refurb stuff. for I know it's been tested and works.. BUT in this specific case NEW.. always NEW Never Refurb.

The original failed because (most likely) The metal of which it is made got old and tired.. and the REFURB likely did as well. The odds of failure in another spot bother me.
