Finally received the crosswing just before Christmas, about 3 months later than they’d originally promised to kickstarter backers. It arrived in a thoroughly mangled thin cardboard box, with no apparent added padding. This has been reported by several others. i received the optional anchor kit, but was disappointed to find the stakes were smooth, not the screw type suitable for sand as advertised.
In the end I decided to go in a different direction and return it all. Several unanswered emails before and after Christmas, with no explanation for delay or suggestion that office was closed. Finally got a response on Jan 3, was assured they would process a return and send me a suitable shipping box, since this one is thoroughly mutilated. As of today Jan 13 no box, no indication one was sent, and despite three emails and two voicemails over 5 days this week, no further response.
All in all, poor delivery, poor packaging, poor communication and poor customer service.
I usually make a point of seeking out products from small companies, but this has been a big disappointment.
