waffle boards

TechnoTurkey:
I don't think it was a 'sales-patter', as a salesman I should know!

Personally I appreciate knowing that there are different types of products on the market, not all waffles are born equal...

Lyndsey731:
I bought some cheap ones off e-bay about £50 about a year ago, I've only used them once and that was a scary experience. The creaks and groans they made were terrible the amount of deflection unbelievable, I genuinely thought they were going to shatter into god knows how many pieces throwing shards of fibre glass in all directions. I would certainly think twice about using them again (these were off cuts).

It isn't that place...  it's not even a company in this country.  As Jake says they are made in moulds to a specific size which means that the edges are sealed and much less prone to splintering.   Yes, they are more expensive than the offcuts of flooring panels... and that is the reason why.   Please be careful about posting "facts" like yours !

Rourkie:
Redhand, you could also look at it this way.

"You buy cheap, you pay twice."

"You only get what you pay for."

"Cheap and cheerful normally means they are crap."


Jake wasn't trying the sales pitch, just stating some facts. If you don't know their products it's wrong to presume they the same. [-X
