Last year I bought a critter at Cabelas and when I got out to the parking lot I put some batteries in and hit the switch. The switch broke on the first push. I immediately took it back in to customer service to exchange. Then I went to the aisle where they were and opened the two remaining packages and tested the switches. One was the same it broke, and the other one worked fine. I bought the good one and gave the second bad one to Customer Service. Typical made in CHINA.
However, the one I bought has been working really well. I try not push the button too hard.
