Dennis 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2013 Hate to deal with poor customer service company. Can't they improve if they are selling premium product, please also provide good service but not lousy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dennis 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) My less than two years $1499 BOSCH washer broke down, how much $$$ would you be paying for repair?I told the customer service director $800plus quoted. I would rather go buy a new washer in the market...... oh ****.... headpain for spending things which is not worth for the price.....next, will try Miele since its only $300-$400 hundred different and was told their service is very very good. Premium product with premium service. Else will go for samsung, cheap product, low maintainance cost. Edited March 25, 2014 by Dennis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kooky 2 Report post Posted April 30, 2013 Before I was married, in my mum's place, we have been using Samsung washer and it has never given a tad bit of problem and it last years. Now that I am married, my mum is still using the washer. Hence, in my own place, I just go ahead to purchase a Samsung washer.My fridge is also from Samsung.In summation, a Samsung or a Fisher & Paykel are the 2 brands I will trust.

Just based on ONE negative feedback? Am a happy Bosch user too. Recommended the brand to my family. Did lots of research before I bought, leaving Miele aside since Miele can cost quite a bit more for the same specs, this is the the top brand in Germany. Electrolux is top brand in France. Miele is supposed to be good but I wanted an 8 kg model. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dennis 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Recommend to go for extended warranty if going for premium model as the labor cost and spare parts cost are high after warranty coverage. I was told by the technician the water pump plus labor cost $260+. Which they actually did the job for another household before mine. Now my washer is functioning as usual , hope it can last me for some times.My previous washer fisher and paykel at mum in law house still working now, it have been used for 10years without single repair. Switch to Bosch due to strong recommendation by friend. Till I faced my problem , there are other customers facing issue which is worst than mine. I really hope BOSCH will improve their service. Else user might be suffered.Just my two cents. Edited March 25, 2014 by Dennis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sneaky_ho 1 Report post Posted June 1, 2013 My Bosch just broke dpwn less than 2 years of purchase. Failed while half way washing and now no sign of life. Still covered by warranty and technician will be dropping by next wed. The hotline person cautioned me that some parts may not be covered by warranty. WTF. Pay so much for a branded product to be faced with such problem is a shame. Let's see what the technician say... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
