Extreme poor service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Trying to buy a part from your Cape Town south Africa outlet for three days already with no success. If you lucky to get hold of the parts salesman called Omar he is just not interested at all. His reply send me you r mail address. Really instead of just taking it over the phone. Then even after you have send it, no reply? I have send response on social media Facebook and to your SA head office in Johannesburg but no feedback. I will avoid your product totally because of the extreme poor service offered from your company. Regards

3 weeks out of warranty and Karcher not interested in any way to help. The repair price makes it a waste of time. Few hundred down the drain. Well, Karcher, you can go *** your knuckle for the future.

Refused refund for unsuitable product

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I gave this one star only because 0 is not possible. I bought a steam cleaner from this company, and despite all their claims of performance it was absolutely useless.

It simply left everything soaked. When used on the kitchen floor not only did it fail to remove dirt, it left the floor so wet I had to get the old mop out to clean up! Ignore any claims you read about their cleaners, they are useless on hard floors, upholstery and carpets alike. When i complained, despite it being totally unfit for purpose I was refused a refund because I had used the product!

I will never buy from this company again.

PS. Recently bought a pressure washer ...

from Bosche. Half the price of the equivalent Karcher and its brilliant.

Poor customer service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Our Karcher 50/50 BD was eating batteries, the dealer, Home Depot, blamed the problem on our maintenance person's misuse. It was taken off out properly for repairs several times resulting in loss of use for several weeks. Turns out, it came with the wrong batteries, and the wrong control parameters. This was finally determined by a Karcher rep. Now, we have a worn part, suction bar lifting assembly, but no one stocks parts for this thing, and it takes weeks or months to get them. Don't buy this thing if you can't tolerate a lot of down time waiting for service and parts.

Not reliable

I have a karcher g3200 xk pressure washer. It didn't last 1 year before it stopped making pressure. Less than 20 hours as well. I would never purchase the brand again. I've never owned a worse pressure washer before,and I've had some of the cheapest. Even my super cheap electric pressure washer outlasted the Karcher. That's not saying much

Yea Im pissed, your customer service rep said she would have the pressure regulator part mailed out to me and that was a couple of weeks ago if not more. Well I still havent received anything??? Whats up with that? Please dont leave me hanging if you dont plan on honoring your warranty just let me know and Ill just trash your product and purchase a better one as yours is more of a Mickey Mouse toy than a actual working piece of equipment. Ive only used it a few times and it stopped working. WEAK! If you

Kaercher pressurewasher rusts inside fast i have a 3 month old K4 full control,bought in germany and brought to the philippines. It failed to switch on after 2 month. After emailing Kaercher austria response after 2 weeks, that they cant help me with parts or repair manual, but forward my case to kearcher Philippines. No response from there over a month, when i contacted them personally, they told they have no parts or manual and cant help. The unit is inside totally rusted and the spring of switch even fall apart by rust. Pls dont use Kaercher near water, it is build inside totally Chinese quality.i download photos here, how bad it is. Wonder if any of them survives the warranty period if used frequently.

Received a pressure washer as a gift. I used it 3 times and it broke. Called to use the "guarantee" and they would do nothing. Sent me to several repair shops who all refuse to repair and suggest I throw it away.

Worst company ever

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Bought 2 ride in Chariot 2 floor machines by Karcher. Nothing but problems. They won’t stand behind their warranty or the equipment. Failure after failure. Complaining to Kärcher does nothing. They just don’t care at all. Worst company ever. Buy a different product from a different manufacturer.
