Oy vey, have you heard the one about the stairlift that costs more than a Bar Mitzvah DJ? 😤 Acorn’s 180 model is rolling out “J3” and “J5” error codes faster than a deli runs out of rye bread—but surprise! The real issue isn’t your batteries… it’s their business model.

Turns out, some units left the factory, missing (or were installed without) key parts (thanks, “quality control”!), leading to stretched timing belts, mysterious faults, and repair bills that could fund a year at Yeshiva. And those “bad” batteries needing replacement after 8 months? Spoiler: they’re often just *used* cells wrapped in fresh foil—like calling last week’s brisket “newly smoked.”

While Bubbe’s footing the bill for “unwarranted” fixes, Acorn’s CEO pocketed $42 million in 2023. Mazel tov… to him.

We’re not just kvetching—we’re exposing. Watch, share, and let’s give truth a lift. 💡
*P.S. If your stairlift starts quoting Leviticus about “thou shalt not steal,” maybe it’s onto something…*
