Is this really made by hitachi?

I found this on the Literotica website: "This item used to be the "Hitachi Magic Wand" but it was sold by Hitachi to Vibratex. The item is the same slightly improved vibrator, but we can no longer use the name "Hitachi"."

I did not check the warranty with Hitachi, for the reasons I stated in my original answer. Sorry.

Hitachi stopped manufacture of the Magic Wand in December, 2012. There is NO SUCH THING as a "new" Hitachi Magic Wand - they don't make them, and they haven't made them since 2012. Vibratex bought the rights to the Magic Wand name and new versions are made in China WITHOUT Hitachi lettering on the boxes or massagers. If you buy a "new" one that actually says "Hitachi" anywhere on it - you have just bought a low-quality piece-of-junk counterfeit made in China - they are flooding the market.

This is a Hitachi Demolition Hammer Clone, I bought Hitachi demolition hammer oil. I also bought some replacement parts for Hitachi and they match 100%.

Does work with Hitachi. I bought them as a replacement for the ones that came with the 47" hitachi. My niece (3yrs. Old) broke the original pair. Hope this helps.

My installation was into a 1997. All I know is that hitachi used to be made in Japan but in my model year, they started being made in China. The wiring for my install was exactly the same as the original. There were no instructions included but you may be able to find them on the web either Google or YouTube. I recall that fitting it into the limited space was a pain but not impossible.

I am sorry, not sure about that. I would check with Hitachi to see what the policy is. Good luck. I have had no problems with my saw and have used it a lot.

Yes, mine came with one-year warranty(in Japanese). If the massager is imported from Japan, it may need to be sent back to Hitachi in Japan for a repair. Try to contact the seller for details.

Although I could not locate the warranty notice that arrived with the drill, Hitachi's website states "lifetime", and there is not 10 year warranty listed for any Hitachi product.

I don't know the actual manufacturer and I don't know how to determine that without removing the drive from the case. I do know that there has been a change in the disc description. I have a number of older drives and they are identified as "Fantom HDD Media". However, the two newest ones I got are identified as "JMicron Generic Media". That may mean nothing, but I am concerned about who makes the drives now. I sent in a request to Fantom to find out what this change means but I never got a response. Manufacturers like OWC (MacSales) are very open about the exact drives that are installed. Just for the record, I have had three hard drives crash and are totally useless - two from OWC, one from Buffalo. So, far I have had no problems with the Fantom drives but I have owned them for much less time. Unfortunately, hard drives do not last forever. Just to be sure, you need more than one backup.

Yes! The brand is now called Vibratex. Hitachi, wanted drop the "massager" due to its infamous sextoy legacy, however Vibratex convinced them to keep manufacturing the device. As of 2013, Hitachi dropped their name from the toy and rebranded it as "The Original Magic Wand". You can check out this article http://expressmilwaukee.com/article-20926-the-rebirth-of-the-magic-wand.html for more info on what happened. I originally did not know about the rebranding and also freaked out thinking I had been delivered a fake/cheapo knock off, but I'm happy to say that I received the real deal from this vendor. The item I recieved looks exactly like this: http://magicwandoriginal.com/ It's an amazing product and I highly recommend it. 5 stars! 5 BIG ORGASMIC STARS!

I am not familiar with the hitachi products, but I absolutely LOVE the Seagate... For all my graphics, pictures and movies, it is above the bar! You wont be disappointed!

The unit is manufactured where else, China. Ugh! It's likely made by a contractor who represents a wide swath of Brands.

I don't think it is, I bought it and I am very pleased with it. It's powerful and made well, the price is unbeatable. I was even considering buying these for gifts, it is that good!

The one I recieved was a genuine Iwata-Medea part. The hologram and everything they put on the package was there. Unless this is a very very good fake it should be genuine.

Most fakes have a blue switch plate with rounded ends instead of the squared ends shown in the picture here. Price will also dictate real or fake. Anything cheaper than $54 is highly suspect due to Hitachi pricing schedule.

I received a 2TB Hitachi on June 29th, 2010, and it was RETAIL packaging. I ordered direct from Amazon, not a reseller. I had no issues with the drive, and it is still running strong. It seems that some of the 1 star reviewers later in July got non-Retail boxes. I bought mine when Hitachi was offering a rebate, so I bet Amazon sold out of Retail packaged units by the time July rolled around. Looks like they have the item under investigation now...probably for the packaging.
