Home Appliances - Home Appliances Complaints

Home Appliances Complaints

Home appliances or domestic appliances are the electrical/mechanical machines which help in household functions. They have now become a major component of our life. Domestic appliances such as washing machine, fans, air conditioners, microwave ovens are used every day in our day to day life. There are two ways of purchasing a home appliance you can either go to a store and shop from there or follow the recent trend of ordering online. Ordering online saves time and most importantly the product is delivered to your doorstep. Most home appliances in India are ordered from E-commerce websites namely Flip kart, Amazon, Snapdeal, Shopclues etc. The most common domestic appliance complaints as reported by consumers include product not functioning properly, defective piece sold, receipt not received 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 guarantee, however, the real hassle begins when it dosen’t. Almost every company will not accept a product if it 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 repairing 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 weeks. The leading home appliance companies in India are Whirpool, Samsung, Haier, LG, Godrej etc. The customer care number of some of these leading home appliance companies are :

whirlpool customer care - 1800 208 1800
samsung customer care - 1800 407 267 864
haier customer care – 1800-102-9999
lg customer care - 1800 315 9999
godrej customer care – 1800-2095511
voltas customer care - 1800 266 0100

You can call at their customer care number and voice your grievance. As there is high competition for home appliances, therefore they will try to resolve your case almost immediately. However, if you still feel that your case is being neglected then you file a case at your nearest consumer forum. It is hassle free and more importantly does not require the intervention of lawyer. We at Voxya help in approaching the consumer forum by preparing the case documents. We generally receive about 20 monthly home appliances complaint.
