Product reviews overview

It's always nice to have the latest issue on board.

Does its job well.

The zipper on my old jacket from 2007 had given in so I needed a new one and this works perfectly with just one snag There is much more friction in the sleeve-linings on this one, compared to the old. Other than that, no complaints!

Good workmanship. Pay attention to the bending radius due to the pressure exerted by the hose. Internal wires are used for reinforcement. Have large side cutters ready when cutting.

Everything went well, product recommended. Note: wire is used inside for reinforcement.

Very good!

They fail to mention what country code you will receive the device. I received one with a Dutch code to where I cannot register because I don't have a BSN number, and its not free of charge meaning an extra 300-400 euro fees for using my PLB if it was registered to somewhere else. The plb registration was offered after I bought the device, without any explanation and all offered UK registration. I decided that I can fill in a pdf form myself so I refused the service. In return I was shipped a PLB I cannot use and it costs me another 3-400 euros to register.

The product is too expensive, but good.

Anyone who owns a sports boat can't miss this place.

The delivery and communication were fantastic, highly recommended.

The product comes with a Dutch registration HEX. They will change it for UK for 50 usds. But if you don't want it to be changed to the UK one, it will just arrive with prob a random ID, mine is Dutch. In the Netherlands, registering such a device is a paid service. I suggest you buy it form another more honest service that replies to your mails and helps you figure out if you are buying the correct device. I don't need a Dutch registration when I could just register where I live, for free.

I use them frequently and with pleasure. Therefore, I always keep at least 10 on board.

Service and delivery were excellent, as always.

Shipping was, as always, straightforward and fast.

The compressor delivers plenty of pressure for the corresponding horn.

Its compact size allows for discreet mounting.

I control it with a pressure switch and relay. Works well!

New part installed exactly as is... Fits and works well, as expected.

The old cylinder was corroded inside (it's supposed to be waterproof) and therefore inoperative.

While troubleshooting, I initially spent a lot of time checking the switches and wiring until I finally looked at the old (identical) cylinder. It was badly corroded inside.

Hopefully, the new one won't corrode so quickly.

I'm replacing a 3500ST that I was never able to get repaired (due to Webasto's unresponsiveness) with a 55EVO, a seemingly simple operation. (Note: I'm an engineer and I do everything myself on board!)
In practice, the supplied kit has numerous defects and omissions that make installation problematic and generate a considerable waste of time!

Part of the wiring harness is pre-assembled, but not the other part. The wires going to the diesel pump are left hanging loose, and the connectors are supplied in a separate small bag. However, the documentation shows the completed harness without indicating the wire arrangement in the connector... and the wires are all the same color!

The main power harness is pre-assembled with a huge fuse box that can't be routed through conduits. You have to start by removing the harness to route it through the conduits and then reassemble it! Some necessary assembly components are missing: the condensate drain elbow, the exhaust sleeve, AND THERE IS NO PACKAGING LIST IN THE SUPPLIED KIT. As a result, it's only halfway through assembly that you realize you need to order optional parts and therefore wait another week to continue the project... The same goes for the essential thermal insulation sleeve for the exhaust, which is also not included!

The technical documentation and installation instructions are extremely confusing, mixing up all the product variants (2000, 4000, 5500) and all the control system variants (even giving the same name to two distinct control systems that don't connect in the same way). Once you understand it, it's very simple, and you wonder why the explanation is so convoluted. Zero points for clarity and educational value.

Furthermore, when you call WEBASTO at the customer support number listed in the documentation and, after three days of trying, finally get through, you're "politely" turned away and referred to "the authorized installer from whom you purchased the product"!!!

Paying 15 times the price of a Chinese knock-off for no better service, is that really worth it? WEBASTO should take a good look at themselves instead of relying on their reputation.

In the end, the boiler replacement, which I planned to do in 3 days, took me 3 weeks, and I still have to add the extra air vents. Here again, the documentation is lacking; the number of "air points" needed to calculate pressure losses due to fittings, elbows, vents, etc., isn't specified for the 55EVO... I know it's an Air Top 2000 S ST max. 325 points.
Air Top 3500 ST max. 550 points.
Air Top 5000 ST max. 375 points.

But nothing on the EVO 55, so I don't know if I'll be able to add the extra vents, which was the main reason for upgrading to the next model up!

Last point: WEBASTO REFUSES to register your heater for the international warranty if you are a private individual. The product registration website is only accessible to authorized dealers and/or installers. I hope SVB can help me with this; otherwise, they might as well just remove WEBASTO from their catalog altogether!

It does exactly what it's supposed to, installation is very easy!

Everything OK

That's exactly what's being offered.

.

This is my third tube over the years. It looks different now, though. Redesign! I hope it still contains the same ingredients as before.

COMPLETE CATALOGUE WITH MANY ACCESSORIES

I'M VERY SATISFIED, ESPECIALLY WITH THE SPEED OF ORDER PROCESSING.

I haven't had enough experience yet, but I tested it once and was very satisfied with the test.

Fits.

Yes, very satisfied.
