on 4/23/2024 I ordered a Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Model WD2UPG1. After it arrived, I realized I could not afford it!! On May 7th I returned it..I was told by them it was received May 9th. When I had not received a credit by May 22nd I called them and they assured me it would be back on my card "tomorrow". No credit. So I called them June 2nd and again was told the credit would be there "tomorrow". No credit. I called 6-6 and talked to a supervisor, ******, and promised my credit by one week. Called them 6-11 and was told "it is in the system". I called 6-13 and was told she would take care of it. On that day I was also told I would get a refund of $70 for the two $35 overdraft charges I received on my account because I did not have enough funds in my account for two auto-deduct charges that were paid because they had NOT refunded me yet! Called again 6-21... same story. On 6-23 I talked to supervisor, *******, and assured she would contact her supervisor and yes I would get my $70 back!!!!I I then told her I would be contacting the BBB if I did not receive the credit within one week. On 6-24 the ************* support sent me a text saying the refund had been processed. The late fees , case #********, was being reviewed. Would you PLEASE see if you can get me my $70!!!?????Business Response

Honestly, I have TWO Shark vacuums that I purchased becuase I was told Shark's CS was superior.In the less than 2 years I have own the larger, more expensive vaccuum, I have had issues. Both times, they want ME to pay for the replacement, and shipping. The first time, they covered the replacement after me continued refusal to pay for it since this machine is said to have 5 year warranty. That issue was the machine would not even power on. Shark can check their records but I do not believe I owned it more than a year. NOW, the cannister is not clipping on to the stand. This machine is cheaply made. I expected it to last at MIN five full years. NOW, I have to hold the cannister which limits the ways I can use this machine such as taking it apart and carrying it around to use on stairs. They said that I can PAY for a replacement for around $25 or so and I believe shipping. I am fairly sure I paid close to $300 fo this vacuum.The should have record of my call. It was a few months ago, I am just now taking the time to complain formally.This is unacceptable! What parts have a warranty?Business Response

I seen a tv commercial for a shark xpert carpet cleaner with stain striker. It shampoo and scared of purchasing the incorrect item I called to order with a ***resentative and I explained the item and I was told by the *** that he was 100% sure of the item and could assist me. I even verified again that it was for carpet shampoo and that I would receive the free steam mop as well and he said yes I would receive all items seen on tv with delivery 2 to 3 weeks. On July 17 I received a email stating that my item shipped so upon looking I was shocked to see a completely different item than I ordered. I ordered an item that shampoo and I was sent a regular vacuum. I was also suppose to receive a steam mop and I didnt see any of that in the shipping email so I call and speak to a manager who gave name ****** with a Ticket #******** and she offered zero assistance in canceling the order and she did not seem to be HAPPY TO HELP I explained to the manager that I have autistic twin boys and could they please cancel the incorrect item and send the correct item because Im not able to go to the store to return the item and I asked her to take it into consideration that it was mistake on their end and I need assistance with getting the order canceled because I wasnt going to be home on the estimated delivery date and still no other option offered by her and its upsetting being that I have a vacuum from shark that I spent over 300 dollars on and it broke very easy with very little use so I asked about my warranty and she said that model is no longer available but my warranty is valid so the system prompted her to only ***lace the bottom so now ive received both items the ***lacement part that didnt work so my vacuum is still broken and incorrect item but when I called to try to schedule a pick up for the incorrect item I was told that I must wait ***** hours for callback and Im still waiting so I can receive a refund and get this poor quality $300 broken vacuum fixed!Business Response

The *** that I spoke with today by the name of ***** said that it was my job to print a label and attach it to the items and if i didnt then they dont know where the items are however I wasnt directed to attach a label so now I sent their product back and my broken product back and now Im sitting here waiting on a ***lacement for my purchased product and the refund but the *** said that she doesnt see anything like that in the system. I dont have the direct contact information for ****** who originally called regarding my BBB complaint and customer service is lost. If i could receive my ***lacement and refund then I would be satisfied but its obvious to me that they havent even started the process because the ***resentative has no idea what Im talking about.

On 04/06/2024 I purchased a sharkninja carpet cleaner for $242.34 by phone. There was no problem with the unit it just took too much between cleaning and refilling. On 06/13/2024 we shipped it back with the address label sent by the company, They received the unit 7/8/2024. Was told by a representative that it would be 5 to 10 business days for the reimbursement, on 7/17/2024 when I called to check on the reimbursement they apologized for the inconvenience and said that they would expedite the refund and we should get an e-mail the same day and that would start the 5-10 reimbursement. On 7/22/2024 I called back and reported that we never received the e-mail and that the reimbursement did not show up at the bank. The representative apologized for the inconvenience of not receiving the e-mail and that they would expedite the process by e-mail for the same day and that it would take 5 - 10 days for the reimbursement to be returned back to the credit card. Today is 7/23/2024 with no e-mail I explained that I would wait for the 10 days for reimbursement upon receipt of the e-mail.Business Response

I bought a Ninja Creami in December 2023. 1 month ago, approximately, the blade caved in on itself and the machine damaged the blade. I purchased a replacement blade out of pocket, and when I installed it, I noticed that when I placed the insert in its place and turned it to the right, the machine itself would push the blade out. As I prepared to turn on the machine once the cup was in the right position, the machine itself would push out the blade and the blade would fall on top of my fruit inside the cup. I reached out to Ninja **************** 3 weeks ago, and again 1 week ago and have not heard back from anyone. I purchased it at ******* in ******, ********** off ******** and I took it back to the store the say day I reached out to Ninja the first time. They refused to give me a new Ninja Creami so I had no choice but to visit Ninja's website and send a complaint via "submit a request". I am not asking for my money back I just want a Ninja Creami that works. I actually really enjoy the product and use it almost daily for health desserts late night.Business Response

On January 23, 2024 I purchased a 10-piece set of Ninja brand pots and pans from ******* Order number **********. I registered my warranty through Ninja (Guarantee 014520205)I like the pots and pans I received, but one sauce pan was defective with the paint falling off after 1 use. I contacted Ninja, they sent me a video link while on the phone with one of their customer representatives, and they agreed the pan was defective and would be replaced at no cost. I believe this occurred in February. Considering I purchased a matching set of pots and pans, I was disappointed when the rep told me they couldn't replace it with the same color, but I was willing to accept a replacement in another color. They said it would be sent in ~2 weeks. Several weeks later I received an email that my order was cancelled, which didn't make sense so I contacted Ninja again. The rep said that neither the color i purchased, nor the replacement color they offered me was available. I asked for a similar quality pan in any color. They agreed to send one within a few weeks. While Ninja has never declined my warranty claim or denied that their product was defective, it's now mid-July, and they have yet to honor the warranty and replace the pan. They claim there's not a single 10 sauce pan available to send me, yet they continue to pump out inventory to sell through ******* Amazon and hundreds of other retailers, including their own website. I believe this company is engaging in unfair business practices by selling products with a warranty to give prospective shoppers confidence to purchase through them, then using continuous excuses to avoid warranty claims.Business Response

I purchased a Power Brush attachment from Shark on May 13, 2024 and did not like it so I returned the product on June 13, 2024. On July 12, 2024 I received an email stating that my return had been processed and that a refund of $28.41 would be issued to the payment method used for the purchase. I checked my credit card transactions and saw that Shark had issued a refund but it was for $25.71 which is not what the email indicated so I contacted Shark **************** and they said that that was correct and then they sent me a "breakdown" of the refund which, of course, was for the amount of $25.71. Why would you send an email stating that a refund in the amount of $28.41 was going to be issued if you were only going to refund $25.71? It doesn't make sense and it's not fair for the customer. They offer a 60 day return policy but they don't tell you that the returns aren't free (because they don't refund the shipping costs) and they don't give you the refund amount that they tell you you'll receive.Business Response

I purchased a Shark Robot Vacuum in August 2022 from Kohls. I paid $399.99. Due to ongoing issues I contacted Shark to let them know. They replaced the unit due to 1 year warranty. I had more issues with the second unit and contacted Shark and was sent a replacement in March of 2024. I am now having issues with the third unit. The third unit has not worked properly since I received it but I only recently figured out the problem is that the flap that sends the debri from the robot vacuum into the container is not opening so all the debri is getting stuck in the vacuum. I appreciate that they have replaced the unit twice but due to ongoing issues with each unit and the large investment in this product I feel Shark should make sure I have a product that works properly. I reached out to Shark and was told that the warranty expired on the first unit therefore they will not replace again. $400.00 is a lot of money to spend on a product that has many issues. Shark should stand by their products and make things right with the consumer due to ongoing issues with their products.Business Response
