Why so much titan attachments hate?

[oldpilgrim]

I bought a set of clamp on forks and forgot to order the stabilizer. I called them and they gave me the stabilizer for the same package price as if I had purchased it with the clamps.... and free shipping.

My brother saw them and wanted a set, which I order for him.

Well made, tough product.

After a couple years of use, I decided I wanted a 'real' set of forks for my ssqa loader. I ordered their cheapest set of forks:

Titan 46" Pallet Fork Attachment Skid Steer Quick Attach Mount 26 lb Capacity

Price including free shipping worked out to a few cents over a dollar pound. It is a very ruggedly built product and fits my ssqa perfectly. How they build it and ship it for that price, I can't figure out, but I am very pleased with it's quality.

I'd recommend the company to anybody.

Gee, I didn't know that the Ansung loader I just bought from Everything Attachments was made in the USA! Guess I did good.

Maybe people hate Titan because they spent more elsewhere and did not find Titan until afterwards?

My one and only purchase from Titan was roughly two years ago, and the product in question was a set of 42" forks. The fit and finish was terrible. The gaps at the bottom of the SSQA were roughly 1/2"-3/4" off. That screams lack of quality control, no matter what language the people building it spoke. The forks are virtually impossible to adjust without kicking the sh*t out of them. I literally hate the product.

Titans response was to offer a few dollars reimbursement to have a local welder fix the gaps. The entire process has turned me off from ever considering another purchase from them. I'll save my money and buy quality products. If I can't save enough, I can't afford them. Very simple. At least I learned my lesson on a <$500 attachment and not a several thousand dollar backhoe.

I bought the same forks a year ago. SSQA has about 1/4" gap at bottom which is ok with my setup. The spring loaded catches on the forks made adjustments very difficult because they kept hanging up on the detents. so I knocked them out. Now it can be adjusted easily enough with a short pry bar.

... Here is the reason stated fairly completely. The inconvenience of the fix at a shop is waaay more than a few dollars.
,,,,,,,A tip on fork adjustment: Raise the loader enuf so you can curl the fork tips down. ... They will slide much easier.

I hate them because all they do is import crap from China and flood the market undercutting and hurting small US businesses like Artillian, Everything Attachments, WR Long, Horst, and many many more here in the US with cheaply with this made stuff. Just read the about us page on the website there is nothing about "making" anything...just unloading containers and shipping. You all buy nice tractors and then look for the cheapest crap you can to attach to it,,,make no sense to me.

So you hate Sears, Northern Tools, AgriSupply, TSC, Walmart, Target, Kmart, even Donald Trump's lines of suits and ties.

Perhaps we buy from them because their level of equipment meets our needs and we can save $$$ for our tractors.
