Faber Complaints & Reviews

The Chimney has stopped absorbing the steam even after cleaning the chimney. I hd logged a complaint 3 months back where an engineer had come after 2 weeks of registering an urgent complaint and he returned as there was no supply of electricity and said woud return once the electricity is available (2 hours). He never showed his face after that. The issue still persists and i dint get any proper response from them.

Sir,
I had a problem with my Faber 4 burner hob after 4 years of giving good service. I wrote an email to you and received a prompt reply on 30/7/2008.
I Contacted on 1/8/08 the number mentioned in your email. I was told that the service man will come on 2 or 4/08/08. But he did not come. Later the service man phoned and said will come on 9/8/08 but did not come. I had told him on the phone that the gas knob could not be pressed down (jammed), and the hob was bought in 2002. Finally he came on 10/8/08 and told that he had bought the knob as I had told that knob was defective. I ask you what can go wrong in the Knob apart from breaking in which case it would be free. Obviously the thing which is pressed by the knob was jammed. He had not brought the requisite spare. I told him the rubber gasket below the knobs and the gas jets / nozzles need to be changed. He told me that he will bring it on the next day. But he did not come again.
On 12/8/08 I made a complaint no 89518 another technician came 14/8/08 and said that he had not bought the spare. What’s the point in coming?
On 21/8/08 another service man came and he had brought the spare. He replaced it. But he did not have the proper tools or the skills to do his job. He also had not brought the rubber gasket and the gas jets / nozzles which I think are running spares (consumables). He offered to rectify the gas jets / nozzles (very less flame was coming). He did not have the box spanner to open the gas jets / nozzles, instead he was using ordinary “PLAS” to do the job. I gave my tools (suitable for the job), but still he was lacking in skill to do the job. So I unscrewed / screwed the gas jets / nozzles for him and he did some cleaning etc. with the hole. As a result now very big flames which are yellow in colour are coming. This yellow colour flame (1) spoils the utensils (2) is inefficient. Still he charged me the servicing charge apart from the part he had replaced. I wrote in his receipt the problem of the spare jets / nozzles and the rubber gasket. And had also told him. He had said that he will bring new gas jets / nozzles, but I am still waiting.
I had expected a better service from “FABER”.

I am still waiting.

I had booked for a Faber Chimney on 26th October 2008 at Faber Galeria, the company's show room at 89, Lloyds Road, Royapettah, chennai - 600 014, Phone : 28110932. At that time the Showroom rep Mr Anand said as the product is not readily available, he will deliver the same in 10 days. He collected full amount of Rs. 21, 990/- and service charges Rs. 440/- From 4th November 2008 onwards, every day I am contacting, in vain. On 8th I had sent a complaint to the customer care at Faber. One Mr. Russell Fernandes replied that the case is being resolved. Now, in addition to calling the show room every day, I had to call their Pune Customer care also. I don't know when the product will be delivered. Beware of this!

TI Buhari

We have purchased a Faber HeatKraft 4 burner Auto Ignition hob for our home. The problem with this product is that the knobs do not have any lock. So it is very easy to accidentally turn on the knob while you are cleaning the hob. This is a very dangerous situaution since many times you would not notice this till much later.
