    I am filing a complaint regarding a VAVA baby monitor that became completely unusable just over two years after purchase due to a charging failure. The device will no longer charge at all, rendering it worthless for its intended purpose.The monitor was used normally in a household setting and well cared for. There was no accidental damage, misuse, or abnormal wear. Given that this is a safety-related product designed for monitoring infants and young children, a total failure after approximately two years does not meet reasonable consumer expectations for durability or reliability.I contacted VAVA customer support multiple times and provided all requested information. While the representatives were polite and acknowledged my concerns, VAVA refused to offer any replacement or repair because the product was beyond their 12-month warranty period. The only resolution offered was a discount code to purchase another VAVA monitor.I find this resolution unsatisfactory, as it requires reinvesting in a product that has already demonstrated an unreasonably short lifespan. Despite escalating the issue internally, VAVA stated they would not make any courtesy exception to stand behind their REMOVEDa result of this experience, I will not be purchasing VAVA products in the future and would caution other consumers about the longevity of their baby monitors.Desired Resolution:A replacement monitor or comparable resolution that reflects reasonable expectations for product durability and customer support.

    I purchased a baby monitor from VAVA and it has completely stopped working. It will not turn on. I reached out a few months ago when the stand broke on the back of the monitor and they said that they could not replace it because it was a few days past the one year warranty recently it has totally stopped working and again they are still saying that theyre unable to help me in anyway, either repair or replace it

    I have had my VA-IH009 Baby Monitor since 2023 and in April the night vision stopped working. I reached out to customer support and was told that it was outside of their warranty period and I could order a new one. I placed an order on 8/12 for a new camera. Once I received the new one and reading the manual I noticed that my camera didn't have the aluminum lens hood. I discovered that my camera was not broken, it was just missing the lens hood. I asked to purchase the lens hood and was told that product was not available. I requested a return address to be provided for the new camera, as shown in their return policy. I no longer need because mine is not actually broken. I was told it would be my responsibility to ship back. I believe the company should pay for the shipping. I have had to spend time going back and forth and the customer service AI ( a problem in itself) and ok the phone have been very unhelpful. I am requesting the company provides a prepaid shipping label and then issues a full refund of $93.56 refund once camera is sent back with prepaid shipping label.

    I purchased a VAVA security camera in October 2022 for approximately $100. While the device was still under warranty, the VAVA Home Cam app began experiencing issues. I repeatedly contacted their customer support, and each time I was told that they were working on fixing it. Unfortunately, once my warranty expired, their responses shifted, and they informed me that nothing could be done.The issue is that the app has since been discontinued, rendering the cameras completely useless. Hundreds of other customers have reported the same problem, with many having spent thousands of dollars on these devices. REMOVEDhas effectively shut down the app and offered no solution for customers who invested in their products.If they no longer plan to support online access, they should at least provide an alternative offline option, such as enabling the hubs SD card to store and manage recordings. Instead, they have left paying customers with nonfunctional hardware.I believe this is unfair and misleading business practice. These cameras are marketed as functional home security devices, yet without the app, they are nothing more than expensive paperweights. I am requesting a full refund for my purchase, as the product is no longer usable due to decisions made by the company, not due to consumer misuse.Desired Resolution:A refund of my purchase, and accountability for VAVAs practice of discontinuing support for essential services without providing a viable alternative.

    Hello,I purchased a VAVA 4K REMOVEDprojector (VA-LT002) in Dec 2024 (Order detail attached).The projector started malfunctioning in March 2025, within 4 months of purchase.The Projector's picture just goes off at random times when we are in the middle of watching a video, a movie, a series etc..I submitted a warranty claim via email (copy attached).The company responded with some troubleshooting steps. I tried everything, but in vain.The company asked for video proofs of the problem. It was so difficult to get the proofs because the issue occurs sporadically at random times. I still managed to get a couple of evidences, and sent them to VAVA. They came back saying the Projector is functioning (which is NOT true, that's the whole point of the warranty claim). They are blaming this on other external items like, HDMI cable, streaming devices connected etc.., which has got nothing to do with the Projector's picture just shutting down at random intervals.This is definitely a defect with the product (the VAVA Projector) and I'm demanding either a product replacement (a working projector) or a full money refund from the company. But they are just sending me on a run around each time I contact the customer service about this issue.Appreciate your help in this litigation and follow up.Thank you!

    Product does not perform as the consumer would expect. Told, "...tough luck" but a representative of VAVA.

    I will never be purchasing from VAVA again. Their customer service is beyond disappointing. For such a high price point youd assume that theyre support would be significantly better. My monitor stopped working. Wouldnt turn off or go into sleep mode. Forcing me to keep it charged 24/7. I reached out to customer service for assistance as its within the 1 year warranty. Theyre requesting for me to send the camera and monitors back prior to them sending a replacement. With a 9 month old at home, Im not sure how Im suppose to monitor my baby while she sleeps as I wait for this replacement without a camera. The long period in between replies is actually wild, going as long as 4(and counting days). Providing no direct support at all.

    Placed a phone call to the business for help with a baby monitor that will no longer connect. Bought in Aug 2024. REMOVEDmentioned that the monitor is out of warranty but he will grant a one time courtesy replacement. Emailed for the replacement and they are saying they cannot grant the replacement anymore. I had 2 phone calls where they said they would honor a replacement and they wont!

    Purchased a Dash Cam (Vava Dual Dash Cam, 2K Front and 1080p Cabin or 2K 30fps Single Front). The suction cup melted on the front windshield. Never mind the sticky streak that it left - I contacted the company to see if I can receive a replacement or even purchase one, to no reply. The dash cam is now useless. Would like a replacement suction part, even for a fee.
