I bought Kento RO+UV filter in may 2017 and have been using it since 1 year, in the past one year I had this water flow stoppage 3times and some minor parts have to be replaced, as the product is in warranty no major costs incurred till now.
I had some problem again in june 1st week(not in warranty anymore), and he changed some part which costs 300 and for service he took 300 more.(600 in june 1st week.)
Now the water is leaking out from the filter and the service guy says he has to change some part which costs 2000 Rs and for service 300.
So basically if you buy Kent product, be prepared to pay 50% of the price every year for maintaining it, one of the worst and costliest product in the market, you have to improve your service.
I also tried to check cost of AMC(annual maintenance contract) and to my surprise the call center people say the mechanic will come and test your machine he will charge you 300 for check up and then tell the price, I already have a service request for water leakage issue and these people say you have separately for servicing and then for the guy to check AMC separate charges, what a crap way to steal money.
I checked few online blogs and found out the AMC is around 2500 just for free services and around 6000(30% of new filter cost) if you have to insure your filter parts, what a way to sell your faulty product.
I am now trying to cancel the request I made, and guess what you can't even talk to call center representatives till your service is taken care off, it just says your request is being processed and you don't have option to cancel it, great value for the customers .
Keep it up Kent RO, I can't even find some dealer who can give me 2000 for this product and exchange it with new one, that's the value you are creating for yourself in the market.
- Thank You! We appreciate your effort.
