      I bought 14 overhead lights from NuWave with a 7 year warranty. One by one, they have started to fail, flickering on and off and remaining unlit for several hours at a time. Sometimes, they would remain on for a bit, but would always begin flickering again, and eventually go off again. The first light was exchanged by NuWave with no problem, then the second failed. They required me to get a electrician out to check the electric, and the light. The electrician (who cost me $300 for the visit and testing) confiemed the light was failing. NuWave then replaced it. They gave push back each time, claiming that when they received the light back, it would work fine. Because it is an intermittent on-off situation, I don't think they left it on long enough to see it fail. The third light went out and I again paid an electrician to test the connection and light. He again determined the light to be failing. They eventually agreed to take the light back but charged me $30+ - who knows for what. Now I have another light failing. Electrician (another $300) says it is their light. I sent them the video of the light flikering and going out, and they still insist that the lights work when they get them back. So I asked, by email, how long they are leaving them plugged in, because this is an intermittent problem. They have ghosted me and are not responding. So I am in the dark (literally) and they are not fulfiling their explicit warranty. I want an answer to my last emails dated 3.3.2025 and a light replacement for their faulty product.

      Thank you for reaching out regarding Ms. ***** concerns.  We appreciate the opportunity to review and assist.
      According to our records, Ms. **** purchased 14 canopy LED lights through ***************** on August 6, 2020.  She previously returned two lights under warranty.  After thoroughly testing the two lights, our engineering team confirmed that they were fully functional.  We suspect the flickering issues may be related to installation, such as loose wiring or other electrical factors.
      To assist, we will be sending Ms. **** a replacement driver (Alset AL80 W1C220SHT)at no cost.  It will be shipped to the place of business.
      While our testing has not identified defects, we want to ensure Ms. **** can continue using her lights without issue.  Our team is available to assist if needed.
      Thank you, and please let us know if we can assist further. 
      Best regards,

      Complaint: 23106927

      I am rejecting this response because: I haven't received any communication or "driver" from Alset.  I did contact their corporate office and they said they were looking into it.  I have bills from the three electrical companies that have checked out the lights and connections and deemed the lights to be defective.  Also, it would seem that if there were faulty connections that the new lights would experience the same issue when plugged into the socket that the faulty light was in.  Since the lights are under warranty, will they be paying for installation of the "driver"?  

      Sincerely,

      *** ****

      I want to clarify that our warranty covers replacement parts only, and does not extend to labor costs. Ms. **** was previously informed of this policy.

      Before I begin, this is not a complaint. I am trying to reach Nuwave corporate since I could not do that through their web site's phone number and email. On January 30, I purchased the Nuwave Blender Pro from ****** (Exhibit A and B). However, because ****** covered up UPC Number (Exhibit C) , I am not able to register this product for a warranty nor an extended warranty. On, Feburary 3, 2025 and again on February 15, 2025, I tried email Nuwave through their ********************************** email listed on their site (Exhibit D). It's been nearly two weeks, I have not heard back from Nuwave. Finally, I LOVE the Nuwave Blender Pro it had exceeded my expectations. I would love to register my Nuwave Pro Blender.

      We truly apologize for any inconvenience this situation has caused you. Unfortunately, as the product has been returned to ****** we are no longer able to process a warranty claim. 

      Our customer service department placed an order on 12.18.24, when we were initially contacted, for a replacement powerbase. However, we then were informed by the customer that an ****** agent informed them to return the product. Once the product is returned for a refund, we can no longer send a replacement under warranty as we require the original product to be sent back to us. 

      Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to expedite a refund or change the details of repurchasing as this is based on Amazon's policies. 

      If you would like further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly. 

      Thank you,

      I am rejecting this response because:YOUR RESPONSE LACKS TRUTH AND VALIDITY!!!

       

      I OWN 2 BUSINESSES, AS A RESULT, I KNOW WHAT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AND LOOKS LIKE.  YOU AND YOUR ORGANIZATION LACK KNOWLEDGE OF THE NUWAVE SYSTEM THAT FAILED.  I CONTACTED YOU AND YOUR EMPLOYEES WHICH ARE FEW TO DISCUSS THE FAILED PRODUCT "YOU" ALLOW ****** TO SELL ON YOUR BEHALF WHICH REPRESENTS YOUR COMPANY, ORGANIZATION AND PRODUCTS WHICH YOU SELL DIRECT AND 3RD PARTY.  AS A CUSTOMER, I PURCHASED DIRECT THROUGH ******- REPRESENTING NEWAVE AND ADVERTISING YOUR PRODUCTS AS "NEW".  YOUR PRODUCT WAS NOT NEW, INSTEAD, IT WAS DAMAGED UPON ARRIVAL AND AFTER YOUR **** STATED YOU WOULD DO NOTHING REGARDING THE DAMAGED PRODUCT, I WAS FORCED TO CONTACT AMAZON WHO ADVISED TO RETURN THE ****.  DUE TO YOUR **** BEING OVERPRICED AND THE PRICE INCREASED $30.00 IN 1 WEEK (DUE TO THE HOLIDAYS)- AMAZON WOULD NOT SEND BACK THE **** TO BE SENT TO NEWAVE, INSTEAD, I WAS FORCED TO PURCHASE A NEW TOASTER--WHICH I DID, DUE TO THE HOLIDAYS, I WAS FORCED TO BUY ANOTHER ONE SINCE I THREW MY ORIGINAL UNIT AWAY WHEN I UPGRADED TO NEWAVE.

      THIS COMPANY ONLY CANCELLED THE SHIPMENT OF THE REPLACEMENT WHEN I ASKED FOR THE ACCESSORIES TO BE SENT AS WELL SINCE I SENT THE ACCESSORIES W/ AMAZON'S RETURN.

      THIS COMPANY ALSO HUNG UP ON MY WIFE AFTER ATTEMPTING TO KEEP ME ON HOLD WHILE CALLING REGARDING REPLACEMENT, THEN CALLING HER ON HER PERSONAL LINE AFTER WE HAD TO SUBMIT 2 TICKETS TO ATTEMPT TO RETURN THIS DAMAGED UNIT.  I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE FOR THIS COMPANY WHO DOES NOT DISCLOSE THEIR LOCATION ON THEIR WEBSITE, AND DUN AND ********** LISTS DETAILS THAT DISTURB ME AS A CUSTOMER LOOKING TO INVEST IN A GOOD KITCHEN APPLIANCE FROM "I THOUGHT WAS A REPUTABLE COMPANY" TURNED OUT TO BE A SMALL INDEPENDENT COMPANY REFURBISHING APPLIANCES AND SELLING THEM AS NEW ON AMAZON!

      AGAIN, THIS RESPONSE IS STUPID AS I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO BUY A NEW UNIT ALREADY.

      I bought a nuwave oxypure zero in December 2022. It's been working great until it just quit coming on it was in auto mode. I unplugged it then plugged it back in and the only thing it does when I power on, is the louvers or vents, open then nothing. The power button just flashes red. I can't close the louvers or vents, I have to unplug it. I sent them an email describing what was happening, to see if they knew what was wrong with it or if they could tell me where I could get it fixed if it's not to expensive. I attempted to contact them again on there site with a message explaining the problem and no response there either. I've gone on there site again to send another message and now it says I've never bought anything. We'll I registered it when I received it, I had an account to set up the wi-fi on it. The site says incorrect email after it has sent me a code a verification code to my phone. Today it let me log in with my same email and password. Now it says I have never purchased from them. The manual says there is a manufacturers warranty for 3 years but my receipt says, Free 5 year limited warranty I just wanted to know if it was fixable and who I would take it to. I did purchase it directly from them I have the receipt. I was going to call but read reviews that said it was pointless so I thought I would come here to the BBB. I have uploaded a picture of my receipt.

      Purchased Oxypure Zero Air Purifier through ******* in March, 2023. Unit has worked fine since and performs as advertised. Recently the unit makes a static noise similar to a ****** counter and all I want is to talk to a technitian who may know what the problem might be. The Nuwave phone number requires you to go through a rewards center and there is no way to directly contact customer service. The unit is still under warranty but no way to correct problems other than ship it back to Nuwave at my expense.

      We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with our products. However, it is important to note that any seller on **** is not authorized to sell our products. Our products are not intended for resale, and as a result, the warranty is not valid once the product is sold.

Nuwave LLC reserves the right to void the Limited Warranty, as permitted by law, for products purchased from unauthorized dealers. We recommend contacting the seller or **** to explore any available options they may have for you. Alternatively, we offer a one-time repair service for customers not covered under warranty.

      Hello,

      I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. Please make sure to check your junk/spam folder, as emails sometimes get filtered there. I have also included the emails that were previously sent. Although the warranty is no longer valid, we do offer a one-time repair service for a fee of $60.00. You will need to arrange shipping of the unit to us using a carrier of your choice. Once repaired, there will be a shipping fee of $29.95 plus tax to return the unit to you. Please note that since the warranty is expired, the unit will not be covered under warranty after repair. If you wish to proceed with this service, kindly contact me directly via email or reach out to our customer service department at ************** for assistance with your repair order.Thank you.

      Hello *******,

      We do truly apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you. Upon further looking into our records, it looks like our customer service department was contacted on 5/07/2024. During this call, you expressed your concerns and our customer service representative explained the functions and normal performance/use of our OxyPure Zero and deemed that the two OxyPure Zero's were performing normally. However, we at Nuwave prioritize customer satisfaction and provided 2 return labels for a return for refund. Unfortunately, the return labels were not used and the product was shipped via ***** which typically take 7 to 10 business days to receive. Please rest assured that once received, a refund will be issued to the same form of payment used for the purchase. Please do not hesitate to reach out to *********************************** if you have any further questions or concerns. 

      Thank you.

      Purchased Nuwave Oxipure Air Purifier in 2022 with lifetime Hepa Carbon filters for $600.00 The order was suppose to have 5 filters included, instead it had 3, one for each year thereafter. Since I was to receive lifetime filters, I did not notify company that the order was short, I thought it wasn't necessary. Now that I have put in the last filter, I called Nuwave to send out the next batch of filters and they refused due to the fact, they say, I didn't report the two missing filters in 2022, they are penalizing me until 2028 instead of 2026 before sending me more "free" filters. The add as you will see states free lifetime filters, no exceptions, "no you ******".They want to charge me $40 per filter until 2028. Ad attached.

      I am rejecting this response because:  Whether or not I let them know about the 2 missing filters has nothing to do with their guarantee.  They guaranteed free lifetime filters for the air purifier and I should have such.  I'm NOT asking for something I am not entitled to, only what they said they would provide.  Their response of not fulfilling this guarantee is FALSE ADVERTISEMENT and I think a lawyer would agree.  Seems this company would rather lose a customer than stand by what they advertised.  Another point is they want to penalize me with 4 years of me paying for filters (1 filter per year) instead of the 2 (2 years) that they shorted me.  How fair is this?  I didn't ask for the 2 filters that were missing, I asked for my next order of filters that should be sent per guarantee.  


      Sincerely,

      Hello,

      We do value customer satisfaction unfortunately as mentioned before per our policy the time frame to claim missing accessories has lapsed well over a year.
      Order was placed on 2/15/2022 included in your shipment was a Nuwave Oxypure with 5 Hepa/Carbon filters which are to be replaced once a year.With that being said the 5 filters shipped with original unit will cover until 2026. You will be able to qualify to claim your free lifetime filters on 2/15/2027 and you would only cover the shipping fee.

      I am rejecting this response because:  Once again, I am not asking for the 2 missing filters. I received 3 not 5. I am asking for the next shipment of filters to be sent as advertised.  What is it about reading what I am writing that the company does NOT understand? Once again, I DID NOT RECEIVED 5 FILTERS, I RECEIVED ONLY 3.  I AM NOT ASKING FOR THE 2 MISSING FILTERS. I JUST INSTALLED MY LAST FILTER AND REQUESTED NUWAVE TO SUPPLY THE NEXT BATCH.  ALSO, WHY AM I BEING PENALIZED TIL 2027 BEFORE THE "FREE FILTERS" ARE SENT AGAIN.  COUNT IT, MISSING 2 FILTERS SHOULD BE 2026 NOT 2027, I DIDN'T THROW FILTERS AWAY, I WAS NOT SHIPPED 5.  I SHOULD NOT BE PENALIZED AT ALL FOR NUWAVES MISTAKE.  REALLY!!!!!!

      Sincerely,

      Over a 3 week period I left two emails regarding a question on pricing and have yet to receive a response from customer service. Looking at other complaints on this web site I dont think I want to do business with them anyway.
