This was quite an unusual experience. L.L. Bean is one of a kind. It is like a village of it's own with parking lots interspersed among stores arranged in a grid pattern. I have not found any other retailer that stands behind their product guarantee like L.L. Bean. If you are dissatisfied with the product, or it fails to perform, ever, return it for full value L.L. Bean store credit. You can buy a replacement at current price with the credit. Very good quality products at a very fair price. Not cheap, not inexpensive, but they warranty your satisfaction for life.
