Review:
PROS:
- None Found
CONS:
- The site charges more to both owners and renters than its competitor site
- A lot of complaints about stolen equipment
- Has rental insurance that can be purchased, but it does not cover you if someone steals your equipment.
The site’s terms say: …even though we have certain protections in place to maximize coverage for lost or damaged Gear…KitSplit typically will NOT cover a Renter’s fraud or failure to return rented Gear (called “voluntary parting” in the biz)…. You acknowledge that there is always a possibility of complete loss that may not be covered by … insurance. We strongly encourage Owners to separately purchase an insurance policy that covers theft and voluntarily parting for the Gear they post on KitSplit.
