Are they repairable?

Hi Peter, yes it is repairable. To set it up for repair, go to http://eservice.sony.com -Vincent

Yes, the bits are repaceable. There are much better products on the market however. Try Home Depot. The rachet mechanism is poor.

Yes, and there are many wonderful local shops that are authorized by B&D; to repair them. Go to B&D.com;

Yes. And you had better use carefully. Some of them were broken already (thin bits).

Due to the flexibility of the hose, I doubt if they can ever be repaired. It is an inferior product. I, too, purchased two from Walmart while traveling in our motor home; both broke at their initial use. It's really a very inferior product. I noticed Walmart took them off their shelves at my local store, so the word must be out!

I have had mine a while and I really dont know, it looks possible but for the price I would just get a new one by the time they wear out.

They're certainly not designed to be. If you are reasonably handy you could probably improvise a replacement. Aside from that, for what it costs it works pretty well.

Yes you can....but call the company and complain that they broke..are they still under warranty?

I have been told that they can be. But it was not as simple as simply removing them and putting a new one in. I believe some other part of the housing had to be removed first. I hope this helps

They seem to be non-replaceable, but the guy at Radio Shack seemed to think that the wires could be cut and spliced (this is without him seeing the wire). I am planning to take the one speaker in to him next week.

They appear to be replaceable, but that point is irrelevant. This item is a cheap piece of junk that I have given away. It threaded one piece of black iron pipe, poorly, and would do nothing more. This device is worthless and useless. Do not buy this item.

Not without some major work. They're not designed to really be able to do that. They do work well when installed as intended though.

I don't think they were designed to be end user replaceable. However, the case pops open easily enough and if you are good with a soldering iron it is probably possible. Not that I have tried it (or needed to).

No - they are not repairable. I've never had a problem with the springs that provide traction wearing out - usually the molded elastic vinyl breaks after a couple of seasons and I have to buy a new set. But I don't mind since they are so effective and not very expensive.

Maybe so but they appear to be glued. One of the others gave a good answer, which is - you could probably pry out the original ones and then glue yours in its place provided they are the same size. Good luck!

I would say that it can be repaired but I would contact Black and Decker since you haven't had it very long

I think so. They screw into place. We haven't tried to recover them, but it's looks pretty basic.
