    I don't keep boxes because cockroaches like to lay eggs inside the layers of corregated (sp?) Cardboard. Not taking any chances!

    I keep the boxes in the attic at least until the warranty expires. Then I keep it only if useful for packing.

    I kept my boxes for my machine. My husband put up some overhead shelves in the garage, so they are out of the way for everyone.

    I asked my dealer about keeping boxes and how some of you said your dealer charges for boxes if needed to be sent back to manf. She said absolutely NOT, no way would they charge for a return box. Guess it just depends on your dealer.

    I keep the boxes for my machines. However, since my storage is at a premium, I "break down" the boxes so they lay flat. I figure I can always retape them if I have to ship my machines or travel with them. Flat cartons store in much less space than boxes that are "constructed". Just my thoughts...
