F.A.Q.

*Customer service has checked with vendor to be sure that a punchcard was not included nor a warranty card. I believe YC5 came with a punchcard. After reviewing manual more thoroughly, I believe it says create your own sample by the instructions on page 18 on manual. Since product did not have a bottom, I felt I better check to be sure all parts included. Silver Reed is a great product and I am glad that you carry Silver Reed product. Jacqueline W.
