This year, some of the Toughboxes are a little off on size on some of the units. That has normally been an easy fix.

That is all the problems that I know of. Not bad, given that AM produces a lot of trannies and wheels and such like every year. Delivery time is usually pretty good.

I'd say that AndyMark is a good idea if you like reliability.

Man, you're good. Your new handle is now "ChiefDelphiGOD". Change it. Do it! Do it! Thanks alot for all of your responses, guys!

Nope. They are in a crunch. Last year we bought wheels from them and this year our mystery package is already shipping.

Mystery Package?

Also, what gen of shifter are you planning on buying? May I suggest the gen 2 as this one will get you as close to a super sifter as possible, that is without buying one of course.

We're going with the gen 1. Thanks fo rthe tip, ill talk to my coach

Great quality, used them multiple times, but order early, we've had some shipping issues in the past.

My team has ordered from AndyMark three times recently and each time their shipment went out within one business day of our order. The only faster supplier I know of is McMaster-Carr.

McMaster doesn't sell omniwheels, or two-speed shifting gearboxes, or half-inch hex aluminum hubs, or several other really cool items. So we really like AndyMark.

actually they are pretty good and really easy to set upp.
its really good considering that they came in the kit of parts

hahahahahahaha.... that would be a heck yes they are reliable. They made mine and my teams' life a lot easier for the past two build season. Thank god I don't have to spend time at the machine shop a week straight to get all the gears, sideplates, shafts done. We never had any problems with AM products.

They are also very reliable as far as service goes. Here is a little story, one of the south Florida teams ordered AM gen 1 the first year AM started to sell products. In the shipping process, the transmissions were destroyed. As soon as Andy heard about it, he shipped a new pair of transmission out... not to mention the team received them the next day.

Use as many AM product you can, you won't regret it.

We used AndyMark Gen2 servo shifters on our robot last year. We also integrated their plastic omniwheels for IRI and Kettering Kickoff. All were and continue to be high quality, high performance products. We are a repeat customer this season.

254 and 968 love AndyMark.

Great service, fast shipping, and great products.

Most imortantly, they listen. Any flaws discovered in their product by the teams are taken under consideration, and promptly corrected.

We've purchased from AndyMark the last 3 years, and we will be again this year.

Awesome stuff.
Dependable and Reliable.

Only problem is when one of the partners starts dreaming of being in a rock band and doesn't answer his phone....
