I received FitRX adjustable 52.5LB weights from ******* in December for Christmas 2022(receipt attached). My son uses/used them in his room on a carpeted floor. One of the weights will not reset to normal position and 3 of the blades will not go back to the set. The defective one needs to be replaced. I have sent 2 emails with the receipt to Tzumi with zero response. The site recommends Chat, but it never works. I have tried calling and it tells you to Chat or send emails, again with no response. Please help! My son really likes the weights, but this defective one makes it impossible for him to do his training. ******* no longer has stock of these so I can't even buy them. Additionally, to replace with something else now is over $200 for one weight. Thank you for your assistance.Business response

Hello ****,
I apologize for the delay in response to your open ticket # **********. I have found your prior communications and details regarding the damaged Smartbell. In response to your ticket I have attached details on what to look for in order to find the cause of the error. This may be a damaged handle, release buttons, or the weights themselves. In order to file a claim under the one year warranty I will just need a photo of the damaged area and the serial number (S/N) located on the side of the tray. Please respond directly to your open ticket with this information and your shipping address. I have assigned the ticket to myself so I can continue to help you directly. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,

I bought a vacuum from tzumi through ******* in February. This month, my vacuum is not working properly and I tried reaching out to Tzumi for technical support to fix said problem. My product is under limited warranty as well. My initial attempt at contact was June 23rd. I did receive an automated reply asking me for serial number, which I immediately provided. I waited until July 5th and emailed again asking if someone was going to help me or to just send me a new one. It is now July 11th and I still haven't heard from anyone. At this point, I just want my money backBusiness response

We are now in direct contact through the ticket number so if you have any other trouble or questions in regard to this device, I will be happy to assist.

I contacted the corporate office back in May 2023 I spoke with *********************** who insured me she would take of me and she did in the beginning....she sent me a temporary robot vacuum and label to send my ion vac in for repair or replacement. I was told on June 8th that they received my vacuum and would keep me updated on repairs. It is a month later I have emailed ***** and left her several voice-mail because she told me that she personally would keep in touch so I didn't have to deal with multiple people. I have also left a voice-mail with their secretary and no response from anyone. I'm so upset and don't understand why I can't get a response, while I do have a temp robot vacuum it is nothing like mine and I just want my vacuum back or a replacement. I was very impressed with their corporate office but after countless phone calls and emails going out with no response I'm becoming very frustrated.Business response

I purchased a Powermax cordless handvac ("ionvac") three months ago at ******** About one month ago, the charging port came away from the handvac, fell out and was lost. I emailed Tzumi's customer support to request a repair. The agent refused to pay the return shipping because I could not provide a receipt. However, I provided photographs of the model number, serial number, barcode and box (from which I would think the purchase can be traced). This handvac cost $27. The lowest shipping fee to return it is $15, which is more than half the purchase price of the handvac. It's not worth it. I request again that Tzumi pays the shipping fee for this product's return. I expect Tzumi has a business account with *** (or another shipper), so the shipping will probably cost Tzumi a lot less than $15 (since they will have the business account rate).Business response

Hello ****, I apologize for the confusion here with return policies. Please understand, we are not the retailer and this is why we require some proof of purchase in the form of receipt or order confirmation. This is needed for various reasons with any returned products in our efforts to not only best assist you but any future clients that *** have similar issues. We can find trace the whole line of the production up to purchase. I so understand your frustration at this time with the PowerMax and have bypassed our rules for providing the pre-paid label. I have attached a pre-paid shipping label here to this message and you will find I have also send a copy to your email. There are more details for processing the return for replacement in your email. I will be working with your directly to make sure you have a working vacuum again as soon as possible.
Best,

I bought an Ionvac SmartClean **** Robovac from the ******* website in January 2023 and it was working great until May 2023. There is a one year warranty listed on the ******* website and I have been trying to reach TZUMI for over 2 weeks by phone and email. Their telephone system you get directed to through their support app always has a message saying they are "temporarily" closed and to email them. I emailed over 2 weeks ago and have not gotten a response. I tried again and again and still nothing. If there is no way to get in contact with the company there is no way to claim the warranty and a product should not fail to function only 5 months after purchase. I tried to contact ******* and because it is outside their return window they will do nothing for me.Business response

I received a "Fusion Clean Stick Vac" as a gift approximately 3 months ago. After using it once, it stopped working. I emailed the company (their phone number listed in the manual) doesn't work, I received a Ticket Number. I have attempted contacting them numerous times, but they haven't responded.I'm curious how BBB could give them a AAA rating! Their customer service is as bad as their product. I would never recommend their product.Business response

I received an ionchill 6 bottle wine cooler as a Christmas gift in 2022. About 2-3 weeks ago, it just stopped working. Assuming it was just an outlet issue in my kitchen, I moved it to several different spots but it still did not turn on, etc (seemed to be a blown fan or motor). Prior to trying different outlets, I made sure the fan/motor was not ****** with dust. I have made a number of inquiries via the phone and email without a reply. When you do call, you are on a constant/long hold and are forced to hang up due to no answer. All I am looking for in return is a replacement for the unit.Business response

I purchased the robot vacuum last summer and it recently started giving multiple different error messages whenever running it and not vacuuming properly. I have submitted several service requests online and responded to multiple automated emails asking for information. I have also called multiple times when the customer service center was supposed to be opened but every time I get an automatic message saying they're temporarily closed. I submitted the first request 28 days ago and sent multiple other requests since and have only received automatic email responses.Business response
