Wixey Digital: A hard act to follow

Disclaimer: I have NO affiliation with Wixey; I am just a happy customer.

When it comes to Customer Service, little things count. And Barry Wixey Development makes things right!

To make a long story short: My Wixey Digital Angle Gauge went crazy – I was unable to make my Wixey gauge read any angle reproducibly. As a result, I had to start making adjustments to my table saw blade using old techniques, such as bevel gauges, squares, etc. I hated doing this, since I became reliant on the Digital Angle Gauge for critical blade adjustments.

Fast-forward one week: I contacted Barry Wixey via e-mail. I told Barry I was having trouble with the gauge. He told me he would replace it, upon receipt of my old one. I sent my old one (around one year old by now), he received it, and two days later I had my new one.

No fuss at all – just a “Yeah we figured it out… it’s messed up.”

It was that simple!

Please note that Barry must be contacted via e-mail, as phone calls keep him away from making and testing these fine little instruments; his web site does not even have a contact phone number. Send him an e-mail if you have any problems with your gauge. He will make things well, if the unit is still within its warranty period – no fuss at all. THAT is what superb Customer Service is all about!

Thank you for a great product, Barry. But, above all, thanks for your superb Customer Service!

  1. Thanks, VC.

    I had heard about how good Wixey’s Customer Service was – but to experience it first-hand is wonderful!

  2. Customer service keeps you coming back! If I don’t receive good customer service, they get one more try…then I find another company. Glad it worked out in your favor. :o )
