I bought a ninja 10 in 1 oven and the first time I heated it up to do the prep the manual says to do, it blew fiberglass out on rack. I tried it a second time with some food in it and it again had little pieces of fiberglass on my kid's food. We did not use it again and I notified Ninja immediately. They did have some return my call and apologize and said they could either refund me or send me a new any item I wanted. I said I really wanted the air fryer oven that I had bought but I wanted to make sure that fiberglass blowing on food was not a normal issue as this is not healthy and I didn't want my kids eating it. She told me they don't even have fiberglass in them so this had to have been a fluke. She said think about it and let them know....I called back and told them to go ahead and send me a new one and I would see if I had the same issue. I have never received it and just keep playing phone tag with them now. Every time I call them back they said that there is no one available in the their claims **** and they will have someone call me back which is always when I am in a meeting. I called this morning and was told the same, no one avail. I am tired of spending time on this and either want this unit replaced or my $400 dollars back. My reference number with them is #0-006-209-9154. Thank youBusiness Response

On or about June 2021, I bought the Ninja Foodi Cooker Model #OP402QW for ******. It has been an exceptional asset to my cooking needs with how fast it can cook items vs the oven. I became loyal to the brand and have looked into the outside grill, as well as the vacuum. But as of 3 days ago, when putting potatoes in, I received a message stating ERROR8. I quickly googled this for a fix and NUMEROUS consumers told me that it was faulty equipment within the machine and couldnt be fixed. Surely, Shark would not let this go with the onus being on them. We called last night , taping the conversation. The tech support from another country put us on video to verify the Error8. He said we were outside the warranty. Too bad so sad. I told him that the Ninja was faulty. People had discovered this. He agreed and said a new one was made to replace the one I have. I compared it to my Pathfinder with a recall. The hood is faulty. So would ****** expect consumers to take care of their mistake??? NO! We bring it to a dealer and its fixed or replaced on ******s dime. This is NOT a disposable product and should last more than a year and a half. Im angry at how this was handled. My faith has been lost in this brand and looking at the complaints, it looks like Im not the one one. I will take this to social media and show the concern Shark has for making a 250 dollar product that worked for 1.5 years. I am thoroughly appalled at whet the tech said (its on tape) Yes we knew it was faulty so we changed to new model. Yours is old. How about taking care of the customers that have the faulty model!!!! I will wait to see how shark handles this before I decide if I write them off for good and recommend to NO ONE, rather let it be a cautionary tale. Im upset and was treated like I didnt matter. I hope you resolve this as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will go into the grave yard with other c*** companies. Sad. I thought there was quality. Apparently not.Business Response

I have called shark 100 times trying to get a vacuum replaced I order a month ago that went out. They sent me a replacement part and the vacuum still doesnt work. They refuse to send me a replacement vacuum even though it under warranty. Please process a replacement of the vacuum. They ask me to cut the cord on the old unit and I explained I do not feel comfortable doing that and they still insist I do so. Horrible company. I will be contacting the ***Business Response

I purchased this vaccum cleaner approximately 8 months ago I'm guessing at this date so anyway to make a long story short the vaccum was a lemon and Shark replaced the vaccum and I received my new vaccum I'm going to guess around June 2022 after I got out of the hospital I used my vaccum for the first time two weeks later it was working so I called the company and they sent a replacement piece a d it has gone up again and I was told I have to pay again this is a new vaccum they sent the wrong piece and I was told to discard it now once again I'm stuck with a vaccum that won't vaccumBusiness Response

I purchased a Sharkninja vacuum with a *** lifetime warranty. It quit working and since I had not received any kind of warranty document (just the invoice showing that I have the *** lifetime warranty) I took it to **************** in ******** ** to have them look at it. They told me the motor was bad and it was not worth fixing, so I called Sharkninja and when I told them I had taken it to a local shop they said that voided the warranty, and they are refusing to repair or replace it.I just want them to honor their warranty.Business Response

I placed an order for the new FlexStyle for $239.05. After the order had not been changed for a week, I reached out to ask why? I was told the item was not in stock and would be at least 45 days for an update. The site never indicated that the item was out of stock or on back order. I asked for a refund and to have all my information removed from their system. I was told that it is not possible.Anyone purchasing should have been told the item was not in stock. Whether it was a day later or ar the time.Business Response

I purchased a shark vacuum and its been a dud.Very cheaply made but we treat our stuff very good and its only use weekly but when calling in because the main hose that connects to the handle and then the small little hose that connects to the bottom brush head have cracked and pulled apart. Now we call and customer service says hoses are not part of the warranty even though in the warranty documents it does not list hoses as wear parts and a hose should not be considered such then the customer service agent comes back saying well we can give you a deal today with shipping it would be this much $$ it was $3 off of a new hose if we just buy it. Very poor service. I tell her no where does it say hoses are a wear item and including a warranty it should be replaced she then tells me using the vacuum every week is considered heavy use. Now how is using a vacuum once a week heavy use that makes no sense. I just want the hoses replaced under warranty so please honor this. Its a Shark Navigator Lift-Away Vacuum - NV351C I purchased this vacumm in 2020 so its well still under warranty.Business Response

I purchased a shark robot vacuum in January 2022 and I have had nothing but issues I have had 3 different vacuums all with the same issues. They are not following commands of the app and they stop sucking things up. I have called multiple times to resolve but no one has been able to resolve this issue. No one wants to help resolve the issues that the app have and that these robots have.Business Response

I purchased a Shark Stratos full size corded upright in July for $324.00. Within 10 days I requested a return address label be mailed to my home address. I DO NOT HAVE A PRINTER. I repeated this eah time several times to every customer service person After much time, energy and 23 calls later customer service agreed to bend the rules and send the return label via USPO. No label has been forthcoming. I've received several e-labels. No matter how many times I call, regardless of how many times I repeat I don't have a printer no USPO label arrives. I am nearing the close of a return window. I am at my **** end. I bought a Sharp corded stick vac in August which I don't want to return. In desperation I forwarded the return labels to a friend to print out. They couldn't be downloaded...a message stated "corrupted." I need help! I've never dealt with such poor service, disregard for attention to detail and all around such incompetent employees.Business Response
