Everything is available.
The reason I bought from the manufacturer is everything was available. No dealer carrys everything, not even close. The only piece I purchased locally was the bow itself because of percieved customs issues. That did not go well initially. The first dealer took my money then informed me they could not ship it for 3-4 weeks possibly longer because they have 6000 orders ahead of mine. I canceled the order and who knows when I will get my money back. I then ordered from another local dealer who shipped out the next day.
Great products
Lack of feedback or communication
There is no answer to any email I write to you guys. I have an issue with the rest pad of the crossbow and there is no answer from your side. I also tried to call you several times but the language barrier makes everything impossibile to solve.
There ss no mail to look at, I have checked Span and Junk. How can we proceed further?

Unfortunately my review will be in English, apologies to Steambow and their fellow hench mensch.
Here we go....
You know when you buy something from a 'real' company, instead some ebay fly-by-night or the laughably predictable " wingdingsing very human 74684257" type seller, we all know that we are quite literally taking our wallets into uncharted territory.
But they are just so temptingly cheap, and therein lies the gamble. Okay, to summarise, what we all whinge about from a reputable company is the greater cost. All on the same page? Good... now, to the story, are we sitting comfortable, I'll begin...
I bought a pistol crossbow for my better half, but unfortunately there was no cocking aid inside the box, ( missus struggles due to old injury ), so I go onto thevSteambow site and lo and behold they are there, up to 90lbs, perfecto!!
Ordered immediately...UPS took the package and to the UK they are headed. After being possession of the parcel they then decide... 9 days later, ( when the parcel is in my home city ), to email me and say, " there's been an error with your delivery address "
After much idiocy and ranting at automated communications on the UPS website, I finally speak to a human. Problem solved? Well...yes and no.
They now have an understanding of the problem, and they have my package, but have still yet to call me to pass the address onto a driver ( complicated stuff obviously)
However, in the meantime I have also emailed Steambow who immediately understood, apologised and said, " tell you what here's a voucher for the same amount...order again or buy something else, on us ". Well slap "mein arsch" and call me Judy! I wasn't expecting that!
Now, as we all know...Steambow didn't have to do this, I had never even mentioned a voucher, or compensation ( what for, I have no idea? ), or even a refund.
And this, ladies and gentlemen, 'this' is the crux of the biscuit, the apostrophe, if you will. ( as the late, great Frank Zappa said )
Moral of the story? You get what you pay for, not only in product design and performance, but also in aftercare and customer care too. Will I use or recommend Steambow again? You bet your a...a...ahem, life.
So, yeah, I could have bought my wife a cheaper pistol crossbow, and yeah, I could have bought her cheap bolts, cheap mags and any one if the cheap cocking aids that litter the interwebs, But when the doodie hits the fan...who you gonna call? Chinese customer service? Crotchscratch007? Some random on eBay ( but you know you can trust them because they have a fish profile pic and everything they sell has the word 'tactical ' in the description....? Ghostbusters?
Do yourself a favour....Steambow, right from the start.
If you are considering purchasing anything and going down the budget route, just remember this tale. You get what you pay for.

Well made product with excellent customer support, though i would wish the bolt tips stayed in the shaft better when drawing them from a target bale, as i've had to reglue several already.

I was able to purchase the accessories I required. The only issue was being out of the EU I did not expect the taxes to be so high. All accessories don't seem yo be available in the United Kingdom

Can’t understand German but got the items very good quality. Only gave 4 because packaging wasn’t that good as 1st order. Ps like on your website can you have a tag to transfer to English.
All done very well
Stringer AR6-II Warranty
Bought Stringer AR6-II, had a problem with the limb and the tips, received a new one within a few days without any cost. Excellent customer service!
My item never arrived
My item never arrived, even after the company told me they have had no difficulty shipping to my country in the past. Paid in full, no product received.
