Since then the motor in the fab has found and u am asking for a replacement. I am told that I have to pay for a new one due to the lapse of time . Im trying to explain that it is only myself and my Husband and we only used it for a few months . I have spent hours on the phone only to ge promised that a supervisor will call he back and the dont take the time to do so.

I purchased a Ninja Ninja Kitchen System with Auto-iQ Boost (BL494), and within one year Ninja's Pro Extractor Blades Assembly broke. It's releasing plastic/gas to our food. I contacted Ninja customer care Case ID #******, and they will not cover it. This product is purchased in less than a year and one year warranty is still there. Not sure why Ninja will not cover it. This is such a poor service and a waste of money.Business Response

this company had a product listed for sale that was not available. they allowed me to repeatedly place an order, then cancel that order, which then cause issues with my card. after 3 days of thinking the problem was my credit card i called the company and was told that they were canceling my order because they didnt have that item in stock. maybe this isnt a violation but i dont see how they should be able to sell a product they do not have.Business Response

I purchased a grill from this company on 3/14/22. Two months ago it started smoking so I contacted the business for help because I had a warranty. Firstly, they dont have phone prompts to let you speak with an actual person so I had to make multiple phone calls and send multiple emails. I finally was told they would replace it and Id be called back with details. Yet again I was not and had to call and go through the whole warranty process again. They were supposed to send me a shipping label for the old unit, but it was not working when I pulled it up with my yahoo account that I registered with them. Once again I call and they then inform me it doesnt work with yahoo and asked if I had another email they could send it to. (I did not ask them to change my email on my account to the gmail address and you will see in my documents that even my invoice for the exchange was sent to my yahoo email. They said once they received it I would be sent a replacement in 3-5 days. However I never received a confirmation email or tracking information on the email address I registered with them. They sent everything to my gmail when I never asked them to switch my email on my account. The package was sent without requiring a signature and it was stolen from my package room that has no cameras so if a package is not put in a locker it gets stolen. I paid $229 for this unit that I used to cook most of my food on and now have nothing to show for it, nor can I afford another one. They refuse to help me, refuse to let me speak with a supervisor and refuse to give me the email of anyone above them to actually be provided with a resolution. They have said I would receive a call back same day and still no one has called me. Called again and was again given no help. I am frustrated and extremely upset with their lack of effort and compassion.Business Response

I contacted the company and asked to be refunded the difference. I was told that it would be done. I rechecked the order only to find it was not completed. I called back and was put on hold for 8 minutes, then hung up on. I called back a 3rd time to speak with a supervisor. I was told they were too busy to assist. I was told once again that the matter would be resolved. I then turned to chat with a representative. This what I was told: No ******. When the order ships, you will see the real charge, but it will be for $467.61, since the code was not applied and cannot be applied now, due to the order status. So, once you receive the tracking number or the unit, you can contact us back, and we will process a refund for 130 USD plus taxes.Business Response

I have attempted to call you back. I asked the agent to connect me with the legal department. He told me he would contact me with a supervisor and I was placed on a brief hold of more than 25 minutes.I hung up and attempted to call back. The next lady I spoke with said she didnt know of a legal department. I hung up and called back again. This time I was told customer service were not able to transfer me to legal and didnt know a phone number so that I could contact them myself. I was told to give my phone number and a supervisor could call me back in 2-4 business hours. Could someone give me a phone number to contact legal?

I was informed that the escalations department IS the legal department. I was also told that they could have given me a refund as soon as the item was on a ***** truck. I told her that I was told to refuse shipment or I could be charged a restocking fee.
Overall, I am extremely unhappy with the way things turned out. This should have been taken care of in a few minutes instead of escalating to this point. **************** should be trained better. I do not recommend this company due to the extremely poor customer service department.

I have shark VacPro (RV2001wRUS) and it suddenly stopped working. I did a full factory reset and again added the machine to app. Once it connected to Wi-Fi and completed the steps it started to blink and disconnected . This happened multiple times and I tried factory reset 3-5 times. I called Shark support and they said they would like to see the problem and hence I provided them another phone number to call so that I can show them problem on the cell phone ***** they were calling. But they said that they cannot call and I have to call back to show the ***** over the live phone. I told them that I have provided them 2 numbers and they can call on one and do ***** on other, but they refused . I told them that I cannot call again and Shark need to figure out how to solve the problem rather than telling the customer to have 2 phones available. They disconnected the phone. So this means that if a person does not have 2 phones to show Shark Rep ***** on call with one and talk on other they will not help resolve the problem ? That is amazing that they require 2 phones to service the product otherwise they disconnect the phone.Business Response

I have a shark robot vacuum and called customer service to ask where I could send it for repair. The operator had me do a video chat and troubleshoot the vacuum. He said it was the main board and they didnt support it anymore and offered a 30% discount on a new one. What he said made no sense to me because he didnt have me check the battery because it wasnt powering up when I asked him he said I could order one for $69 dollars. I asked for his supervisor he said one was not available but would call me back in 2to 4 hours 24 hours later and still no call. Why would I buy another one when they dont support the one I already purchased why cant I send it to anyone to repair. I guess the make disposable vacuums. And just condemn Them instead of fixing them. Not vary good service vary unfair. Thanks ***Business Response

On 4/24/22, I purchased a Shark Vaccum, model ICZ362H from Amazon. Within a couple months of ownership, a plastic piece used to engage the soft roller brush with the motor snapped during normal use, preventing the soft roller brush from moving, and the vacuum from operating as designed.On 11/2/22, I reached out to Shark support to file a warranty claim for the broken part, only to be denied under the condition that this part is not covered under the warranty, because only the "pod" of the vacuum was covered. I was then asked to pay ~$120 for a new entire floor unit, despite the only piece needing to be replaced being a small piece of plastic.Sharks warranty (https://www.sharkclean.com/warranty/1-year-limited-warranty/) makes no such distinction that only the "pod" is covered under warranty, instead only excluding wear parts. However this piece is clearly not ever intended to be replaced, so it cannot be considered a wear part. As such, there is no justification for the warranty claim to be denied.I request that Shark honor its warranty, and replace the defective part at no charge, whether that be the single plastic piece, or the entire floor unit it is attached to.Business Response
