The most common domestic appliance complaints as reported by consumers include product not functioning properly, defective piece sold, repairs not done, service not provided etc. If you have ordered online it is much more easier to get a replacement. You can either call at their customer care number and ask for replacement or you can do it yourself through their mobile app. It is very easy to get a replacement for a defective home appliance if your product comes under warranty, however, the real hassle begins when it doesn't.
Almost every company will not accept a product if it is slightly scratched or broken as this comes under physical damage, which is not covered in either the guarantee or warranty. Your best bet in this case would be to send it for repair at a local shop or their authorized service center. Almost every well known home appliance company has a service center in every city. This process usually takes around 2-3 weeks.
