Local?? The badapao factory in my area is lots bigger, clean and organized in my area. Its an assembly and stickering (shop not factory) that also very very cheap like someone packing local made patato chips. All the parts including rubber also imported from outside. Not more than 30 employees. How come its local.

This is actually a good manufacturing practice. It is called stress testing. If the product is to break due to any manufacturing defects like the plastic being brittle, lcd panel having internal stress during shipping, improper threads in screws, improper sealing of speaker diaphragm, loose soldering etc then it should break at the factory itself and not at the customer's home. This is done INTENTIONALLY to ensure the products that get out of the factory are durable and will last for years. There's a lot of testing done at least where I used to work, from physical shocks, operating at voltage fluctuations, EMI, Noisy power line, over load test, heating test... All of this ensures that the customers gets nothing but the best, a well tested product without any signs of wear and tear. Plus there is always the warranty which says "5 years warranty against MANUFACTURING DEFECT". So just in case something broken does reach the customer, they are 100% covered by that warranty, the seller knows and that's why they use that word "manufacturing defect" and immediately cater to your claim.

I have a Thomson 55". It worked ok for 3 years and 4 months, though it had a laggy playback with some KZread 4k videos. Just after the extended warranty got over the panel started showing horizontal lines and flickering. I had to call customer care multiple times and send mail multiple times to register complaint. Then they need upfront payment of Rs. 550 for visiting my place. Then I relied on KZread videos for fixing it myself. With an exchange of old tv I had spend ~25k to buy this.

They should work more careful. Otherwise by seeing this video no one interest to buy this Tv.
They are assembled by hand that is why kodak tv has lot of backlit bleeding issues.
Not even a climate controlled room or air filtered room where you deal with sensitive displays and you call it quality quality quality

Led tvs wont last long even if its samsung or sony, my samsung led tv panel had lines within 3 years unfortunately conpany offers only 2 year warrant new panel costs more than Tv so I threw it away. Then I purchased 55inch Thomson TV, it had panel issues after 1 year, they replaced the TV now its 3 rd year the panel gone again but I had extra protection plan from jeeves so they issued me refund of the price of the TV(after diminishing price of about 5000 Rs), but still its a good deal, now obce again I am going to buy a 65inch one because it serves my purpose but make sure you exchange the before the end of the protection plan youll get a good deal to purchase a new ond with latest technology

I can surely say by the sample rate of the moods in the comment section that this video has literally cancelled 100's if not 1000's of orders for the maker I literally pray for the poor marketing guy who took the decision to show this assembly line to millions of customers online by keeping his job as stake I feel for him and the thing is they're not even making them just for the assembling that was way too below par standards even to Indian consumers.

I don't understand why people criticising thomson and kodak for this video. If you search for other manufacturers plant they also do it in a same way even tcl in Poland. So ask for the better quality in India every manufacturer from big brand too have same setup and method no one has fully robotic or automated plant. So just chill guys.

@@rujanshrestha6730 I used to work for a similar company(not TV) as an intern. The reason why we were intentionally asked to be rough with the products was for stress testing. I used to feel so terrible when the boss asked to throw packed products from one man's height. They were testing the durability of the packaging and what all are stress points in the body of the product to improve design. The test that I was assigned to do was literally called BURN TEST. We were putting the product to its limits for periods of time the product was not recommended to use. We were also supposed to induce physical shocks to test for stability of the electrical joints and whether they caused product failure or erroneous functionality. We were supposed to take readings. We were ASKED to be rough, like a careless idiot customer would be.. I am not saying that is what's happening in this video but I can definitely connect the dots. If the product is to break, it should break at the factory itself is usually the intention of such manufacturers. Cuz they are later graded by the main company based on how many products from their center were returned as faulty etc. The main company can end their contract later. It is more beneficial than irresponsible. The products that do break or show signs of wear and tear are not sent to customers.
