Kenstar Complaints & Reviews

Dear Sir/Madam,

I got "Kenstar Food Process" as a gift in my marriage, but from the first time it was not working, as it is in warranty period I have logged one complain from the phone to Kenstar.
As per discussion they need to resolve the case with in 24 hours, but after calling many times I am not getting any positive response. Instead helping me people from Kenstar asking me to log complain in Consumer Forum.

Mr. Salunke - [protected] (He is technician and never picks the phone.)
Mr. Savergaon kar - [protected] (He is the head of the in charge for Pune division and He is asking me to log complain in Consumer forum, but he is very keen for not helping me)

Complain no which I logged in their online system is “PUN[protected]”, which is opened from Sunday evening.

I expect that Food Processor should get repaired as early as possible and what ever the amount I wasted in telephonic calls also gets refunded.

Thanks and Regards,
Chetan Burse

I had bought a Kenstar 25 ltr Convection Microwave Oven + Kit (Model number KE25CMGJ-MGK) on 03/10/2010 from Khosla Electronic Pvt Ltd Behala Kolkata. (Add: 371/1 D. H. Road, Behala, Kolkata - 700034)

At the point of sale, we were informed that the product would be delivered within 2 days, however the same was delivered on the 4th day. After a couple of days hence, your company representative came for product demonstration. Only on his arrival that we opened the box & it was noticed that the product was not only deffective (the wire was burnt out, there were scratches on the glass) but also had several components missing (like the warranty card & the Product Manual).

We had registered a complaint on your toll free complaint number[protected] mentioned on the box containing the microwave oven) the same day (12/10/2010). A lady named Tumpa had contacted us thereafter & informed that necessary action is being taken (I'd urge to know what?) & we are still waiting for a response/action on 11/11/2010.

dear sir,

I have purchased refrigerator (KRC 171 PR-CH RE) from dealer Kedia Traders, Amravati on 23.6.2007

I have loged the complaint for the reason not cooling, to m/s Kedia Traders, walcut compound, amravati on 5.8.2010. My complaint no is NAG-[protected].

after that on 3.9.2010 the service vendor visited for problem location.

on 22.9.2010 service vendor replaced the compressor and charged Rs 950.00 and also not given any receipt for the same( service technician Sri Sanjay Bhurbhure). (please convey whether he charged the amount correctly or he cheated me)

but after replacing the compressor problem is not solved, and my money paid for compressor was wasted.

after that, after several personal visits and phone calls to the servicing centre and m/s kedia traders for solving my problem, no one is taking the cognizance of my complaint.

I request you to please look in to the matter, and please solve my problem at the earliest. I am being harrased for the service from 5.8.2010.

please look in to the matter urgently.

Sir/Ma'am,
I have purchased Kenstar Karishma Food Processor from Mayur steel & stationaries - Nigdi (Pune), on 18-OCT-2010. As per instructions given, I called customer care several times for the demo. Each time customer care logged a complaint and told us that their technician will contact us within 24 hours BUT still no one has contacted. Can you please let the people know who use your products about your business policies? Why you are not looking into customer complaints even after charging customers for the services you provide?? Why do you promise customers that you will provide service within next 24 hours if you can't? There are many many questions about your business tactics from the perople who purchase your products & believes in your promises.
So I kindly request you to please send a person to demonstrate working of food processor. I called at your service center regarding this many many times, but no one visited us for the same. We then kept follow up for the same, but all in the vain. For your information, I am giving you my last 2 complaint numbers so that you will know better about us & hope you will provide service (PUN-[protected] && PUN-[protected]).
Please take a look into this.
Thanks in Advance!

I HAD PURCHASED A KENSTAR MIXY ON MAY 5TH 2010.IT GOT SPOILT ON SEPTEMBER 8TH 2010, I GAVE A COMPLAINT ON 9TH SEPTEMBER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL BE ATTENDING WITHIN 4 DAYS, BUT NOBODY TURNED UP. I STARTED GIVING THEM REMINDERS REGARDING MY COMPLAINT, I WAS GIVEN THE SAME REPLY, THE PERSON WILL BE THERE BY TOMMORROW, FINALLY ON 20TH ONE OF THE CONSUMER SERVICE EMPLOYEE TOLD ME THAT, MY COMPLAINT WAS CANCELLED ( WITHOUT ATTENDING). I GAVE A FRESH COMPLAINT WITH THE COMPLAINT NO CHS[protected] ON 20TH, NEXT DAY A PERSON CAME AND TOLD THAT, A PART HAS TO BE REPLACED, WILL BE BACK BY 2 DAYS BUT NEVER TUTRNED UP, I STARTED CALLING THEIR CONSUMER SERVICE EVERY 2 DAYS, REPLY WAS THE SAME THE PERSON WILL BE THERE BY TOMMORROW, BUT NEVER TURNED UP, I STARTED SPEAKING TO THE HIGHER OFFICERS REGARDING MY COMPLAINT,TILL DATE NOBODY HAS TURNED UP..............................

I have a service contract with M/s. Rubicon Services,from 26th January,2008 till 25th January, 2011 for my Kenstar Water Purifier. As per the service contract they are supposed to service the purifier every six months and also change the carbon every six months.

However, during the past two & half years their service people have come and changed the carbon 3 times, that also after lot of phone calls and follow up from my side.

I have been contacting your service centre on phone no. 26789233 for the past one month but in spite of promises, no one has turned up to service the machine and also replace the inlet pipe which has cracked and leaking. I have phoned at least 25 times and spoken to many people but no one has come for service so far in spite of promise that someone will come and attend to this matter. I also spoke to your Mr Vijay number of times but of no use.

They are the worst in terms of service and I don’t Kenstar also really bothers. Please ensure you do not buy Kenstar products EVER.

Hi there,
I purchased Kenstar Microwave Oven 20L KE20CBGJ on 9/9/2009 from Lotus, Indore. Before three months I have seen that there is a hole in upperside of hitting tube. I made complaints many times but there is no response from your customer care. Your engineer Mr. Chandan Pawar visited my house, after checking it he told me that the steel part will change entirely and assured me to replace it within a week.

It is around three months, no action is taken yet. At your toll free, every time they give me a complaint no. but no action is taken yet. This is my last approach direct to the company and if I did not get any solution I must have to go to the consumer forum to resolve this issue. If you provide me a solution it would be a great support.
Thank you.

I purchased Kenstar Water Heater 25 litres having model no KGS25W4M serial no.2275 from M/s Garg Enterprises, Urban Estate, Patiala on 16.01.2010. During July 2010 the geyser started leaking and I lodged a complaint with the vendor. He advised me to lodge my complaint with Kenstar service cenrte. I did the same but till now nothing has been done despite my repeated telephone call to both vendor as well as service centre. Both are making excuses. Sometime they say that we have not got approval from our Admn Office. Service Centre employess are saying they are not directly responsible to customers and I should deal the matter only with the vendor i.e. M/s Garg Enterprises. Vendor is saying to carry the geyser to service centre and they will replace it. Service Centre employees visited my home to check the leaking a month ago and after checking they informed that your cylinder will be replaced within a week's time. After few days they informed me that your whole geyser set will be replaced as soon as they receive approval from their higher authority. I request you to kindly help me in redressing my comlaint and getting my geyser replaced.

Thanking you,

sanjeev kumar arora.

I had bought a Kenstar Fully Automatic Washing Machine 10 months back. But from day 1 the washing machine has been giving some problems or the other. The very second day after I bought it, there was some issue with the motor belt. Instead of replacing the part the service person came and just did a temporary fix.But somehow I has been working since then.The most recent problem started a month back. The washing machine sensor which stops the water coming from the pipe and starts washing got damaged. I registered a complaint and the service person came and said he will replace the part. The complaint was registered on 19th July 2010. Its been one month now and the service centre still says that the part is out of stock. But all other private service centres have the same part readily available. My product is still under warranty. I believe they are doing this just because they don't want to replace the part for free. I have made numerous calls but nothing has happened so far.

My microwave oven Kenstar OM-25 OCF is functioning defectively since 15 Jul 2010. It is under warranty .Two complains, Nos-RAJ[protected] and RAJ[protected] are registered with customer care [protected].The customer care provided the Mobile no of its service representative Mr Parmar,mob no-[protected].Mr Parmar refused service at doorstep and I carried the oven to bhuj and deposited to Mr Parmar at (JH Refridgement,opposite Umiya timber mart,Bhabeswar nagar,Bhuj).After 06 days I called him who informed that the oven is repaired.I collected back on 07 Aug 10 and found that the defect is not rectified.Further Mr Parmar not attending the telephone calls.I contacted the branch head of service Mr Dhan Singh at mob no-[protected] who assured me service but still no progress has taken place.I have called the customer care more than 70 times but the oven could not be repaired except false assurances.

As a customer I have done my best to report the defect of micro-wave and also approched to every concerned of service centers.Now I am completely desatisfied with the arogant attitude of service centers .I request your order to replace the price of Microwave oven from the company redress my grievances as in future good service from such irresponsible service centers can not be expected.

THATNKING U

Kenstar is pathetic. my microwave oven is nonfunctional since 15 days. i lodged complaint on their toll free. the guy turned up after 2 days. he saw the machine but could not identify the fault. he said he will take the machine to his service centre next day. he never turned up. i have written mail on their customer complaint ID available on their website. I got a sweet appology but the complaint still remains unresolved. They are simply PATHETIC.

Please let me know contact details of service centre (s) for Kenstar make microwave in the area of Bhubaneswar and Cuttack (in Orissa).

Sir,
I have purchased Kenstar Food processor, Karishma from Ranchi (Universal Traders, Opp. Sri Lok Complex, Hazaribag Road). Now My food processor Micro switch has gone faulty as informed by Authorized Service centre-N.K.Electrical &Refrigeration, Near Ratan Talkies Chowk, Main Road ,Ranchi. But Micro switch is not available with service centre. Service centre representative is not able to give any specific date for providing same. Every day he says that tommorrow u will get.As this is very important appliance used daily. I am facing lot of problems. This type of poor service is not tolerable for any renowned company. What to do?

Sl. No. for Service centre receipt :1346 and for processor :0VH 077956
