Bad Battery, Great Service

Bought the battery 02/25/2015, and of course managed to lose receipt. Battery date coded 12/15. Battery died 01/03/2018 and since I didn't have the receipt, the warranty expired 12/31/2017. Sam's Club honored warranty and replaced the battery. Kudos too them. I would not purchase again. A battery should last much longer than the warranty period (all of my other non-Duracell always have).

Never used but purchased 2017

I bought an Energizer battery from Sam's and had it for 11 years. The first time purchased a Duracell battery from Sam's, it lasted almost 2 years and warranty replaced it. Second one lasted 10 months past it's 3 yr warranty and luckily I had an 8 yr prorated plan and had to pay little for the next one purchased in Aug. 2017. May 2019, the vehicle got hit on the side and somehow the lights was left on and the battery died. Tried charging to bring car home and would not hold a charge, I had to jump the battery with heavy duty cables. Got the car home and it would not crank. Battery indicator light warning light was on in vehicle, so I took the battery to have checked at auto parts store and "bad battery" was what I got back. It would not hold a charge after it died that night and had just been riding in my other car trunk for almost 2 yrs. now. I've recently just now decided repair my ol' school and have to another battery. Although I didn't get the complete use of this battery in my possession now and my history with this brand of battery, I was considering purchasing it again. But I come to see the reviews on this battery and they haven't improved at all, as a matter of fact, they are worse. They need to consider another brand that's satisfying to customers because I feel like I've waisted a lot of money buying Duracell brand car batteries from Sam's.

Can’t trust after 18 months

I’ve had this battery in my truck for 18 months. Twice it has stranded me on the negative temp mornings. Charged the battery and let it sit outside overnight and it fails a battery test. Bring it in, they fully charge it and test it at 65°. It tests at 760 amps. Lower than the stated 800 cca at room temp. No warranty. This battery is not trustworthy for MN winters. Keep looking. Sams Club customer service is poor and unwilling to work with me on this battery. Go to your neighborhood parts store.

Duracell 78

Purchased 2015 at Sam's for $96.00, now 2023 and still working fine after eight years! The warranty was three years so I am way ahead. I test my batteries twice each year. Highly recommended.
