I'm not sure if it is machined in US, but I think it is probably assembled in US. I used another the exact same for years in a shop where I learned machine work, on a rescent visit it is still in use (15-20 years). Dependable, if it fails it will be from misuse such as dwelling too deep wrecking the stones when it bottoms out. Careful not to break your wrist if it hangs with a high torque drill. Use a small wrench on bolt atop of stone adjustment to increase honing increments (1/8 of turn each time until desired). You will get the hang of it the more you use it.

I've only had mine (two in two tanks) for a few months so it's too early for me to report from personal experience if/when they need replacing, but the company says they last 1-1/2 to 2 years. Actually, I don't know why they'd ever need to be replaced, as the bacteria should regenerate, although the stones are supposed to leach calcium and trace minerals into the aquarium, and that effect would eventually diminish. Then again, I don't know why they should do anything at all for a biologically filtered aquarium that gets frequent water changes, but they seem to have improved water conditions, even in a couple of tanks that were in pretty good shape to begin with. I may add them to some other tanks eventually.

Dear customer, I use this at home as well and just running hot water after usage cleans out the stone pretty good. About once a month or so, depending on usage, I put it in sanitizing liquid for about 30 minutes. Cuccio describes that this stone is 100% sanitizable and can be immersed in any sanitizing liquid or solution. Thank you!Lifetime guarantee.

For personal use, the combo will last a very long time and is convenient. This is my first time using high grit stones so I found it a cheaper introduction. I have yet to buy a flattening plate.

nope. I would argue that if it is out of flat the stone is either defective or used up. Should last years.

Hi Again, I just checked their site. The tumbler warranty is 5 years You can check it here: http://store.lifetime.com/products/blt/pid-60028.aspxCall them to take care of the warranty. I hope their warranty process is not to hard.

No, and if you open the sharpener it voids the warranty. If you wanted the stones replaced you would most likely have to send it back to the factory

I don't know. It is so pretty but a lot of the stones have fallen out after about 6 months.

I never got to use the stone I bought. When it arrived two of the corners were broken off and I just returned it. I would think it is good for your knife. It is a very very fine grain of stone, and should be used with water, not oil.

It should work fine,but one word of caution. I bought this for my son and he said after about ten uses the stones seemed worn out. Like the diamonds had come off.

These are water stones, you just need to pre-soak for about 15 minutes before each use, and add water while sharpening, and air dry after you are done, don't need to deal with greasy oil.

I cant seem to find my instruction sheet, and I've been using mine for about 3 plus years without any problems what so ever. If I recall it has at least a 1 year warranty and it could be as long as 3 years. This set is expensive but may become your favorite appliance.

Just on the stone somewhat but not really. You pretty much need to know already. Sorry,I'm not much help. Nice stones though as they have a rubber on the bottom and they don't move all over like the others that don't have rubber. There's not much to know on these. Just scratch your piece and put solution on. Now your solution will usually tell you with their directions on how to use the stone and solution..
