I have bought a Voltas Air conditioner 2 years back for 37500 INR. It was 5 star rating 1.5 ton ac.
First of all Voltas ac is not cheap at all. But I thought its pupular so lets get it.
Here’s my experience.
I have six gas refilling in the air conditioner till date yes 6 times air refill straight after 3 month of ac it was gas refill.
The ac doesn't cools like 1.5 ton it behaves more like a 0.5 ton ac.
Now after recent visit when they said I need a 7th time gas refill. I asked them to check for leakages. They found the indoor unit of the ac i.e condensor coil has leakage so it needs to be changes. Since ac is now out of warranty it will cost me 7000 inr to do so.
Also they told me that the outside unit of the ac is aluminium and not copper. I was surprised since the ac was really at higher end of cost.
After all this. Ac has costed me 37500+ 7000+ 400(visit)+ 4x 2200(paid gas fills+ visit)= 53700 INR. Plus it’s still not doing its job properly i.e cooling.
Mitisibushi and O’General are most costliest ac and they are cheaper than this pile of junk .
Voltas at worst is pile of junk at best if very costly crappy ac. If you want my review. I would say never buy a voltas.
The fact is Voltas ac is so bad. That the cheap Koryo ac from big bazaar again an Indian brand, is far better since its cheaper and it breaks less than this.
I had a panasonic before this and it lasted for 7 years without any issues. I didnt even performed routine maintenance on that thing.
- Thank You! We appreciate your effort.
