In the beginning of June I called because my string trimmer had cracked and was unusable. I provided pictures and a receipt from ******. After several weeks I called again and was told I needed a more detailed proof of purchase which I provided. The order number was #*********,After not hearing anything for a week I called again. This time I was told that there was a new policy and group that had to approve a replacement and that I would need to submit everything again and pay for shipping. I told them I would pay for shipping when they approved the replacement. I was given a new order number#*********. The agent went over my contact information and said he would email me the information to send the required information. I did this on Tuesday July 15, as of today I have received no infirm Worx.I feel that I am being given a run around and that they are not honoring their guarantee. The trimmer was purchased from ****** last year in July and the product was less than a year old when I first contacted them .Enclosed are the pictures. I can send the ****** receipt to an email address if desired but dont know how to attach it here. The company should have it in their file as I sent it on July 8.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
I also had a request for my receipt again from Worx. I forwarded it attached to the original to this new person. If I ever really get a refund or replacement I will let you know. It will only be because I contacted BBB!

This company produced a product that would excite most tech guys, a robot mower. I purchased two. Neither have worked properly since the date of purchase. When the software creates an issue, customer services ask the customer to go through test after test. When the issue is their software. It more than obvious if you look on social media sites. More and more users are asking the same questions.Business Response

Hello *****,
Thank you for inquiring. I sincerely apologize for your experience. I understand that circumstances like this can be quite irritating, especially since you indicate you've been having problems since you first received it, but I'd be pleased to assist you now.
As you can see, we usually go through a number of troubleshooting processes while a product is under warranty. However, I understand that you have done this multiple times and the tool is still not operating properly, and I would like to spare you having to go through the process again. I'd like to offer to replace both of your units at no cost, so you get a brand new tool and may start over! How does this sound? If you want to take advantage of the offer, please let us know; all we need are the model numbers, serial numbers, and your shipping address. Along with this information would you be able to provide me a copy of the original purchase receipts?We look forward to your response. Thank you for choosing Worx!

I purchased a mower with a 3 year warranty in July 2021, that mower was defective and was replaced in August 2022 with a new 3 year warranty. The mower is now having the same issue and the company does not want to replace or repair even though its under warranty. There is obviously something that needs recalled on this mower model.We have purchased several word tools and anger to support a good company that stands behind their products.Business Response

Hello Mr. ******************* hope this message finds you well. I am sorry to hear of the reoccurring issue you have experienced with your Worx WG743 Mower. I understand you are worried about there being a possible defect within the mower due to this, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. I would love to get in direct contact with you regarding this matter, to go over some troubleshooting and see what could be causing the defect to occur.
I was able to locate your original order in our system, so you will not need to provide any kind of proof of purchase. All I would need from you is to have the tool in hand, with the batteries and charger so we can go over some questions, and look into getting your unit replaced if need be. I would love to see if we can get it up and running though!
If you can, please reach out to me directly via email at ********************************************* and provide me with a good time to call you. Anytime Monday-Friday 10AM-6PM EST would work for me! I look forward to further assisting you and we truly appreciate you choosing Worx!

Hello Mrs. *************** hope this email finds you well! We appreciate your purchase with us and want to ensure you have a confident experience with this battery! When it comes to life expectancy on a battery, with Max ******* batteries, you are expected to get 3-5 years, or ******* charge cycles. When a battery is not being used while in storage, there is no charge cycle occurring which would in turn not cause the battery life to begin depleting. Therefore, even though this was manufactured in 2021, this battery is still considered new, since it has not been through any charge cycles.
I would be more than happy to explain this in more detail for you via a phone call, as well as gather some further information from you to determine how to best move forward and give you that confidence we strive for! Please reach out to me directly, via my email ********************************************* and let me know when a good Day and Time to call you would be!
I look forward to further assisting you and thank you for choosing Worx!

This complaint about service, parts and any of the above for CTS36ABU. E-scooter was bought 07/23. I tried 2x to obtain digital display and top piece parts for repair. 2nd attempt stated *************** was responsible for the parts BUT Aventon does NOT do e-scooters. They have NEVER sold e-scooters. They had a contract for 6 months for customer service from 01/23-07/23. They could not help me because this e-scooter is a WORX product. I known my warranty is out BUT Worx could not help an all. And the passed it off to *******. I have the chat text sent to my email stating Worx only works with the batteries and NOT THE E-SCOOTER. I need the parts to fix from them or exchange for refurbished one or new one. Why sell an e-scooter or e-bike when they cant repair them??Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:
080624. Please accept this as my response to your offer of a solution. If you read my initial complaint, I stated that
I have already ordered a replacement of the product thru Amazon because I cannot wait any longer for a return label.
Therefore the solution makes no sense. However, I still need the return label to get a refund of the original
damaged product. Consequently, your offer of a warranty/replacement is not helpful under the circumstance.
Obviously, I have no use for two identical products nor do I want to pay for two products. Can you offer another solution?Business Response
Date: 08/13/2024

>Shipping Details: Shipped from our ************** shipping facility on 8/7/2024, with an arrival date of 8/10/2024. The package weighs 10 lbs.>Next Steps: Refund: As a one-time courtesy, I would like to offer you a refund.

I have owned string trimmers manufactured by this company. They advertise "FREE" trimmer spools for life. This is false advertising and consumer fraud.On 6-1-24 I ordered replacement spools. Order #*********. The package includes 6 spools 2-3 ounces total. They are sent ***** Smartpost, a very discounted method of shipping. They charged me $9.91 for shipping these light weight products shipped by this economy method. This IS NOT "FREE" and consumer is overcharged for the shipping. To make matters worse I was charged state sales tax of .55 on "FREE" merchandise. As retired law enforcement this is illegal and amounts to theft. You can't charge sales tax for item that is supposedly free. What am I paying sales tax on? This is completely FALSE ADVERTISING, this merchandise is not "FREE" by any means. Customers are being charged sales tax for item that is "FREE" and overcharged for shipping. These practices need to end and company needs to be fined.In addition I received an email my merchandise was shipped 6-3-24, it is now 6-24-24 and I just received notice my $9.91 shipping item will be delivered 6-25-24, over 3 weeks later. For what I paid I should have had the merchandise within a week or less!I won't buy ANY future equipment from this company so they will lose a lot more profit than if they had just honored their "FREE" spools ad. Hey WORX $10.46 is far from "FREE".Business Response
Date: 07/03/2024
Dear ***********,
I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out to address the concerning issue regarding the delay on your most recent order for spools.
We are sorry to hear about your experience. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and would like to ensure that we will resolve this matter promptly.
The free spools for life are free we only require a simply shipping cost of $9.91 plus tax to get the spools from our facility to your home. I most certainly submit your feedback that way we can improve our shipping process and costs in the future.
To rectify this situation and ensure your satisfaction, we will refund you the charge of $10.46 as a one-time courtesy. The amount will reflect to the form of payment within 3-5 business days.
Thank you immensely for your patience and understanding.
Thank you for choosing WORX! We deeply appreciate your business and look forward to continuing to provide you with excellent service in the future.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to my complaint, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. However I feel in the future this company should not be allowed to charge sales tax on items that are advertised as "free" . this is CONSUMER FRAUD and a crime. I also feel shipping charges should be the actual cost and not inflated. I am sure the shipping on these spools, due to minimal weight is $4 or less, no where near $9.91. In the future don't advertise merchandise as free when it obviously isn't, that is false advertising!
Thank you.****************************************

Transaction 4/12 $127 I ordered a pressure washer I received a tracking # for the battery only received that on 17th. Meanwhile the pressure washer was still in process. I waited and I received no emails I finally call to see if it was on backorder. I explained everything to the customer care even sent her a picture of the email. I told her I had no tracking # for it. She checks and says she has a picture of it being delivered so she sent it and I confirmed that my house but it was not there and told her if I had a tracking # I would've known when it was coming. She then speaks with a mgr and was told that I had to file a stolen package with law enforcement. I told her it was negligence on there behalf because you all left my product in processing mode and didn't email me a tracking # . If I had the tracking # my package would not have been stolen. She said they will not reship because it was deliveredBusiness Response

I bought a Worx 3 in 1 blower vac WG-512 from ********** in 11/21 and it has a 3 year warranty. It stopped working in October 2023 and I called Worx support on November 2023 and again in December 2023 to file a warranty claim. Both customer service reps were nice and told me that the unit was back ordered and they would put me on a waitlist and I would be notified when it became available. On January 30 I called again and inquired about the status and talked to Brand Ambassador ***** who told me that it still on back order. This time she told me that she would process the claim (which neither rep before mentioned this) and I received an email that same day telling me that it the warranty claim had been officially processed. It is now March 1st and nothing! This is ridiculous. I did upload the receipt to ***** along with the serial # of my unit.Business Response
