Design fault withPolti Forzaspira Slim SR110

We have a Polti Forzaspira Slim SR110, we have been reasonably happy with the product, but trying to get a replacement LED motorised brush head is a nightmare, there is obviously a design fault with this item, no one has this in stock, item code M0006803, this is the third head we have ordered in 4 years, I have tried several times to contact the UK service, but still no call back, it states the office is open 9-5 mon-Fri, called numerous times again this morning, only voicemail. I don't think we have much choice but to dump the Polti we have, and buy a brand name such as VAX, very disappointed. The problem is the hose within the brush head splits, eliminating any suction, this would be a very low cost part to replace, but instead you have to purchase a complete head which is ridiculous, no one has stock.. Polti needs to get there act together..

Hi Anthony,
Thank you for your review, and I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your item.

If you would like to be notified when they arrive, please do give us a call back. If you cannot reach us by phone, it is likely that our lines were busy at the time you called. However we respond to most voicemails left for us within 1 working day.
Kind regards,

Polti Slim broke after 3 years light use

My Polti forzaspira 110 Slim Blue is not quite 4 years old. It's a second cleaner so it's not been abused. The battery has lasted well but I've since found replacements cost about £90. Using the cleaner yesterday the main clip snapped on the bin, stopping the cleaner from working as its come apart. Holding it together now with duct tape isn't a good look but it will do till it gives up altogether. Replacement bins are available on ebay but at £30 it's not worth it. I can't expect an item to live forever but I don't consider 3 years that durable. Disappointed, as from a performance perspective it does clean really well (especially car seats) but it seems it's built to just become more landfill. ***Update*** thanks for your reply. As mentioned in my email ebay sell bins for £30.00. ESpares are selling the battery for £90 and as for a battery being £70 from Polti that's still expensive. The sum of the replacement parts would be more than I can get a new (basic) cleaner for (circa £50).

Hi Paul,
Thank you for your feedback, the quality of the product is something we will be feeding back to our design and production teams. I'm not sure where you have come across these prices, but for a battery and dust tank for your model we charge £69.90 and £16.35 respectively. Should you wish to purchase either of these parts, please contact us on 01618132765.

Bought the steam cleaner all looked good. Only on its 2nd use no steam. Been offered a refund last month and told to recycle it. They told me the refund is put in place . Pay pal have assured me it’s not in place even though they confirmed it was. Emailed this company and tv Chanel. Left running round in circles. Called pay pal twice thankfully they have now told me to take it to Action Fraud.

Hi Yvonne,
I'm sorry to hear you had issues with your item. Under the Manufacturers Warranty we have, we would be happy to investigate this issue and provide you with a replacement. This can be done by contacting our Customer Service team by phone or online.
If you have had trouble obtaining the refund, this will be between yourself and the retailer your purchased from (I assume this was a shopping channel). If there is anything we can do to assist with this process, please let me know.
Kind regards,

Fabulous customer service from Polti UK

After contacting Polti UK about a problem with my new smart 100b steamer, they decided to replace it. Really quick decision and no fuss. Absolutely fabulous customer service from Daniel and we love our new steam cleaner. Just what we’d hoped for.

Fantastic service!

My Polti iron unfortunately stopped working. I called Polti bracing myself for the usual obstacles you get in these instances. However, I was very pleasantly surprised that not only was the phone answered promptly (without the usual press 1 for this 2 for that, etc and assurances that my call is important), but Charlotte couldn't have been more helpful. The upshot being that within 48 hours of my call, I had a relplacement machine. If only all companies were this helpful and efficient.

Customer service is a joke

Customer service is a joke, products are ordered, and delivered without any tracking information, and no one in to accept delivery, on trying to contact Polti via their phone number, no one is ever available to take a call, beware, products might be ok, customer service is a disgrace

l bought Polti cordless just over two years ago. DO NOT BUY, ive had no end of issues, within my warantee, been sent back twice and third time, they say its my battery, i need a new battery at £69, so if your happy to keep paying for new parts every year, go ahead and buy.
First issue was my filter, even though i cleaned my hoover every week, cost £39.
Second time , they couldnt find anything wrong but gave me a new motor.
Now its not under any Warantee, two years of having issues, its now my Batttery, at another £69.
Where does it stop ( NOT) , clearly didnt pay again
DO NOT BUY

Good morning,
I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with the battery on your vacuum. Under warranty a fault like this would be resolved free of charge as you mentioned with your motor, however outside of the warranty period, we do charge for spare parts. I appreciate this may be frustrating, but the nature of the warranty is that it only runs for a set period of time. Full details can be found here: https://www.polti.co.uk/warranty.
With regard to the filter needing to be changed, this is not something that is considered a fault, it's part of the care and maintenance of the product detailed in the instruction manual. We recommend washing / cleaning it on a regular basis and changing it every so often depending on use. These filters are priced at £13.90.
If you need any support with your product, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Kind regards,
Dan

Worst vacuum ever

Worst vacuum ever. Doesnt pick up. Roll bar stopped working couple of months ago. Rang customer service and they sent me the new part so no problem with customer service. Had for just over 12mths now so it's out of warranty and now doesnt pick up and charge only last about 15mins at best. It is so light and flimsy, it is like a kids vacuum. Wont buy one again. Will go back to my original vacuum brand. Only chose this one as it seemed a good offer at the time. Wish I hadn't bothered

Hi Cath,
I'm sorry to hear you've been disappointed with your vacuum. We actually provide a 2 year warranty with new products, so you should still be covered if you're having further issues. Please give us a call or email if you would like us to look into the matter for you.
Alternatively, it might be that you need another product more suitable to your needs rthater than a lightweight vacuum, and we'd be happy to point you in the right direction if this is the case.
Hope to hear from you soon,
Dan

Excellent customer service

I had a problem with a Polti vacuum cleaner that wasn't working properly and the customer service were incredibly helpful. I contacted them by phone originally and then via email and they arranged for me to send the cleaner back. They sorted everything out with respect to the collection, fixing the problem and then sending it back to me. This level of service is so unusual these days and left me with a very good impression of the company.
