What Is a Factory Reconditioned Tool? A factory reconditioned tool is one that has been returned to the manufacturer who restores the tool to like-new condition. There are a number of different reasons why a tool might be returned to the manufacturer:
· The tool was purchased by a customer who then returned it for whatever reason. This tool may have been used for a short period of time, or in many cases, not used at all.
· The tool had a cosmetic blemish, the box was damaged or dented, or there was some other minor defect.
The manufacturer performs a thorough inspection of the tool, makes any needed repairs, performs quality control to ensure that it meets all factory specifications, cleans it, and deems it in like-new condition. Like-new condition means that the tool may have some minor cosmetic blemishes, but otherwise is in perfect working condition.
