Wish I can give it 0 stars. The bottom of a double wall mug (sitting at room temp) shattered a couple minutes after pouring ice coffee. I drank small pieces of glass shards thinking it was just a piece of ice that broke off. Zwilling's response? NO REFUND. I somehow misused it when it was my 3rd time using it after purchase.Review from Jennifer G

Their website boasts, "hassle free returns". That is a total lie. They will not cover the return shipping regardless of how much money you spent and regardless of what the problem is. They make you choose the return shipping place and call them with the return shipping tracking information. The hold time is well over 30 minutes. The staff are rude. They speak as though the customer is the village peasant and they are above you and your petty concerns despite it being their product that has the issue. I am begging people not to give them any money. Please go elsewhere and save yourself from ever having to deal with this place.Review from Damian P

The company's support and ethics are awful. Bought this set and it comes with a thing that says "give us a review and get a free wine stopper. Cool I can do that. Register my product do the things and while going for the review it says "Get a free Bellarni Knife set for your review". Even better. I do the whole review process and at the end there is no way to enter your address. Confused I contact support about this. They say "oh we are out of stock of both items. So instead we will give you 5 dollars off your next online order!"... I went to register again just for fun and guess what despite knowing that they are out of stock of the knives the website still offers it in exchange for a review.I asked them to delete my prior review then and their answer was "we cannot do that". As a further middle finger both the wine stopper and the knife set are in stock despite their support saying they are notReview from Scott S

Zwilling is a terrible company. I ordered 3 Christmas gifts from them on December 9. I got 2 confirmation emails, one stating that the order was complete, the next stating that the order was in the works. Two days later I got another email stating that the order was canceled. I tried to reorder but the main item I needed was out of stock. I called and was given the runaround. The email said they couldn't send to a po box. Nothing on the ordering page said that. The first guy customer NO service guy said there was a problem with my credit card. The next NO service guy said the first guy was wrong and it was the po box issue. The email could have asked for my street address or maybe said that on the web site. If you want or need something do not waste your time. They are unreliable. They did offer a 30% off code for regularly priced merchandise. I guess they thought that makes everything all better, not a chance!Review from Carolyn G

I spent a lot of money on pots and frying pans with the non stick coating. They started to peel right away. Bed Bath and Beyond replaced them. Less than a year later they started peeling again. Zwilling will not stand behind them because they are out of warranty. I was told it was a lifetime warranty and they said not on the set I purchased. NOT worth the money!Zwilling Response

Hello *****, thank you for message. We're so sorry to hear that you were disappointed with our warranty coverage. Your set was from 2018 and our ceramic coated cookware is warranted for two years. Based on the images, it seems as though it was a use and care issue and not a manufacturers defect, which is why we were unable to process your replacement. Hello *****,Thank you for reaching out to us. Were truly sorry to hear about your disappointment regarding our warranty coverage. Your cookware set, purchased in 2018, falls under our two-year warranty for ceramic-coated products. After reviewing the images, it appears the issue stems from use and care rather than a manufacturing defect, which is why we were unable to process a replacement.We appreciate your understanding and are here if you have any further questions.Review from Tony P

We purchased a Zwilling kettle a few years ago and about a few weeks after use noticed discolouration on the bottom of the kettle. Zwilling claims we left the kettle on with no water in it and this is not accurate. Since we never left the kettle on after boiling and always left water in the kettle after pouring. They have declined a warranty replacement. We have friends and family with the same kettles and they use them in the same manner without having this issue. We are more concerned any health related issues this may have caused since it appears the lining is shedding and rust appears to be at the bottom. Furthermore we have had kettles of lesser value than the Zwilling brand and have never had any issues such as this in our 40 years of kettle use. Since we do not feel it is safe to use this kettle, we may keep it for our own investigation and as a reminder of Zwillings lack of quality.Zwilling Response

Terrible customer service. Went from wanting to build an entire Staub collection, to never wanting to purchase from this company again. I ordered a visual imperfections cocotte, that arrived with a chip inside the lip that had not been enameled over. The visual imperfection items are described on their site as having "minor visual imperfections" such as "chips that have been enameled over" Therefore, the item did not fit the item description on their website. I reached out to customer service about this issue, hoping for an exchange. **************** agreed to an exchange, but told me this was an exception, as they do not offer exchanges or returns on visual imperfections. I feel this ignores the fact it was not just a visual imperfection I was unsatisfied with, but instead a flaw that went completely against what was promised in the description. Regardless, I agreed to move forward with the exchange. However, customer service then informed me I was expected to pay for the return label. Due to the weight of the cocotte, I would be looking at paying $50, to ship back an item. An item I was only shipping back because of a quality control issue on their end. I tried countless times to explain to customer service that I did not feel it was right to expect me to take the responsibility of paying for the return postage when it was their mistake. However, they did nothing but re-state that allowing me a return at all was an exception, and that I would have to pay for postage. At one point they told me it was systematically impossible for them to make a return label for the visual imperfection item, then at another point they told me they were already making an exception by allowing the exchange at all, and could not make a second exception. I feel this customer service experience was a complete waste of my time, which is very disappointing from a luxury company with a luxury price tag.Zwilling Response

Let me start by saying that I have been a devotee of ******* Knives for 25 years and ***** cookware for 15. I have spent 1000s USD on their products and still love them. I have also had fairly good warranty experiences in the past with knife repair.However, something has happened to their customer service. On 8/18/24, I accidentally clicked purchase on a set of Staub ceramic dishes and *immediately* submitted a request to cancel and a separate order for the correct dish. I then called the next day (8/19) to follow up because there wasnt an option to cancel the order. The person I spoke to apologized and assured me that I could return with a prepaid return once the products arrived. I pointed out that most online retailers have a cancel button and that, of course, one shouldnt expect to always catch it, but it should be an option to *try* to cancel - saving time, ********** emissions for everyone. I submitted my online request on 8/19. I heard nothing until 8/30 when I called and emailed to try to get someone. Apparently my request was lost, but I was again assured that they escalated my concern and I confirmed again that I would get a prepaid return label. They then sent me a standard return authorization with no prepaid label. I immediately emailed and called to ask why and they asserted that this was not their policy. I explained the whole saga and they just blew me off with the same canned *********** is incredibly sad and frustrating to see a brand I have sung the praises of and sunk so much money into decline so drastically in their commitment to the customer. I spent so much time and did everything I could to prevent this and in the end will have paid over $40 and tons of ************** for nothing. ALL IT TAKES IS TO HAVE A CANCEL OPTION ON ORDERS!! Again even with a caveat that if the request is submitted after processing then it cant be addressed, but in this case my request was immediate, it could not have been processed at that point!! DO BETTER!Review from Rick C

Great knives, poor fulfillment and poor chat customer service. All departments could definitely use a refresher course in S.O.P.
