I can sympathize with the mechanic. A customer wanted me to install one for him the other day, and i made him watch me, just so he knew it wasn't my fault. Bloody thing broke in like 4 places. Complete trash.

I agree to the fragility of the headset, but the mechanic did not use
equipment suitable for the assembly (he used a hammer) .... i was shocked during assembly,though I had told him to stop, he continued...

comfortable, you're the fifth person who tells me that this headset is very fragile.... I thought a product more resistant... thx anyway

Sarà fragile, ma per danneggiarlo credo avrà fatto leva o molta forte con il martello..vero?

penso che si sia danneggiata perchè da come ho potuto "scorgere" mentre "lavorava" (a martellate),l'altra parte poggiava a terra!!!
