Lynx Levelers -- 10-year warranty ?????

[TenOC]

I know I will be opening a "can of worms" but here goes anyway. I need to replace my system of leveling blocks. I have used wood and the yellow plastic blocks. In all cases I’ve had problems with cracking. I am thinking about Lynx Levelers and depend on their 10-year warranty to replace any broken blocks. I am concerned if I have to pay for shipping that the warranty may not be worth the trouble and aggravation.

Has anyone had experience with filing a warranty claim after the first year?

My Lynx Levelers are about 15 years old and no problems after heavy use. A buddy bought the Camco knockoff levelers and they're junk IMO.

I bought mine at Walmart years ago and went back and bought a second set.

Did they require proof of purchase and purchase date?

I provided that on the first contact before they responded. I only told them the date and where. They did not ask to see receipt. I learned long ago to keep receipts for anything with a warranty no matter how inexpensive.

My Lynx sets are 10 years old. Those that ride in the rig and come out while camping still look practically new. The set that sits under the tongue jack (and thus out year round in the sun) are heavily bleached but show no sign of cracking. I will be replacing that set this winter just to be safer than sorry, but I will order another set of Lynx to do so.

I can't speak to the warranty question, but I've been very happy with mine.

TOO heavy, Tractor Supply has a 1" thick horse stall rubber mat (that I could cut to size) but again very heavy.

Based on what you say, this maybe the only option that will work for you.

1" inch thick steel plates
Might be a little costly at first
but will last longer than RV or you
more increments in height adjustments

My 2 cents worth

I have two sets, several of them have large chips broken out, but they are still usable, and to be perfectly honest, I didn't even know about a warranty, and as said, they're relatively cheap so I won't worry about a warranty.

Sounds like you answered your own question.

I've had several blocks in my lynx kits "fail" but haven't bothered with the warranty. After all, they're cheap and plastic, it's no surprise they'll eventually break.
