Overall Experience
The overall experience with the company is largely negative, with customers expressing frustration and disappointment with the service and products received.
Customer Service
Lack of Responsiveness
Customers have reported difficulty in getting in touch with the owner, director, or even staff members to address their concerns. Promises to call back and resolve issues are consistently broken, leaving customers feeling ignored and frustrated.
Unprofessional Staff
The staff is described as unprofessional, rude, and unhelpful. Receptionists are said to be poor and rude, with no sense of responsibility or accountability.
Product Quality
Defective Products
Some customers have received faulty products, such as a tandoor with a faulty burner, which took months to sort out and still didn't work properly. Another customer reported a tandoor with a cracked interior and uneven heating, which made it difficult to cook naan bread properly.
Outdated Technology
One customer noted that the company's technology is behind the times compared to other providers, which may be a contributing factor to the poor service and product quality.
One Exceptional Review
