Booking/Recruiting Slide Falling Apart

[ms_twana]

Okay, I've used my booking/recruiting slide only 4 or 5 times, and it's coming apart. Anyone else experience that? Will HO send me another one?

I haven't used mine much, but a gal in our cluster was doing a demonstration and when she flipped it out, it fell apart into two sections (at a seam) - (she JUST bought it too). I'd call HO. Worst they'll tell you is 'no'.Then if they won't, get clear packing tape if its a seam or maybe you can re-laminate it with clear-contact paper?? Don't know how it's falling apart for you.

It's falling apart at a seam.

I've been using mine for months and it's just like new. Maybe you got one from a bad batch? Definately call.

Mine fell apart too! I stapled it back together.

I had one fall apart, called for a replacement. that one fell apart, so I called to ask what the deal was and they sent me another replacement. and guess what? that fell apart so I used clear packing tape and taped both sides (carefully so it would fold well). ridiculous but now I have extra slides for my team...

 

[tiggerhale]

I had same thing - original fell apart. Got replacement and same thing. Both fell apart at the seem. Packing tape it is!

 

[Sheila]

Yup. Mine too. It took a while to pull off off all the hard-as-a-rock glue. I used double sided scrapbooking tape & put it back together. It's done fine since.

Mine fell apart to I was kind of emmbaressed in the middle of a demo I pull it out and drop it and it falls apart. I guess I will have to try the tape trick

 

[wadesgirl]

Never had a problem with mine but I did have a consultant who's was in two pieces when she pulled it out of the package.

 

[esavvymom]

I think maybe I'll be preemptive and just put the packing tape on the seams NOW.

I think maybe I'll be preemptive and just put the packing tape on the seams NOW.

Pretty much. LOL.

when mine fell apart at a show, I just laughed and said that luckily the products worked a lot better than the slide - plus they all have a warranty.

 

[chefsteph07]

Huh, I've had mine since we earned it as an incentive 2 summers ago and it's never given me a problem, but I agree about the tape!

 

[Malinda Klein]

I bought extras for my team and as I showing them, it fell apart at two different seams. We just used packing tape as suggested above to put it back together.

I got some Instant Krazy Craft Glue and it's worked great. Plus I've found a dozen other uses for it. Unlike regular Instant Glue, this is in a bottle with a lid, so it's lasting a lot longer than the little tubes that are basically one-timers.

Mine fell apart also. Never used it at a show. Was practicing and it fell apart. I am on my third one from HO. Have given up on calling for a replacement.

 

[Shelly Flanagan]

Mine fell apart too. Glad to see I am not the only one. I am calling HO.

 

[mountainmama74]

Mine fell apart at a Cluster meeting this past weekend! I rarely use it at shows, but am thinking about pulling it out again, but I'll have to fix it first!

 

[Dotty]

I got mine in Jan and it immediately fell apart. I used crazy glue and that is working well for me.

 

[winklermom]

Mine must have been part of a bad batch, too. I got it in August/September. Used it once, possibly twice, and it fell apart at the seams, too! So frustrating. It really doesn't look go on the company, so I quit using it. )o:

 

[[email protected]]

Me too! It was only the third time I used it. I just gave up using it

 

[Chefgailb]

When mine came, it was in two pieces. I thought I will have to use the packing tape
to fix it, also.

 

[mentul77]

Mine fell apart the first time I unfolded it after getting it out of the package, I'll have to find the packing tape and fix it I suppose
