I appreciate your opinion and have a great deal of respect of it… although honestly have almost no faith or respect in the BBB ratings, but they are a tool that can be used just the same…
All the early evidence points to it being a good product but I think the NC 1200 double wide series is the only ones using their own design, all the others can be new or remaned, but I could be wrong about that…
I hope they prove to be as good as claimed, because someday I may need one… it’s an expensive part for an expensive appliance that just must work…
Thanks…
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of BBB ratings either, but I thought the drastic difference in this case was noteworthy. I should have been clearer that I was primarily speaking of the 1200 series design. The other models are available in either new or remanned, the buyers choice. I think the 1200 is the only model they refuse to remanufacture due to its fundamental design faults. The new units are built with the same thicker wall tubing as the 1200's though. I don't know either if any design changes have been made, or were needed, in the other models. My 18 year old Norcold 6182 still works perfectly and shows no obvious signs of corrosion, but I will definitely use a new Pines unit if it should need a replacement before I move on to a different rig.
