Negative experience

Hello, purchased a fryer, in late November 2024. As a new business and first of all one side has stopped working and now the other side, I have contacted them, and they are good with replying but not getting a resolution or getting anywhere so resorted to writing this review.

Terrible Customer Service and Lack of Support

I purchased an industrial mixer from KRD, but unfortunately, it arrived damaged and with electrical issues. I immediately contacted the company and was told over the phone that an engineer would be sent to resolve the issue. However, after multiple calls and emails, I have yet to receive any confirmation of when this will happen.

Now, the company is not answering my calls or responding to my emails, leaving me with a non-functional machine and no solution. I have formally requested a pickup and a full refund, but so far, no action has been taken.

The lack of commitment and support from KRD has been extremely frustrating. I do not recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable products and customer service. If I do not receive an immediate resolution, I will have no choice but to take legal action.

I purchased an electric griddle from KRD on 12th February 2025 and received it on 14th February 2025, but it doesn’t work at all. I have tried contacting their customer service multiple times, but they have completely ignored my requests for support. The lack of response and poor service is unacceptable. I would not recommend buying from this company as they do not stand behind their products or assist their customers. Very disappointed!!!!

Despicable Customer Service

If I were able to write a minus review I would. We are a small military veterans charity who provide a free hot meal every day. We fundraised for a replacement freezer, a significant spend for us and purchased it from KRD. It arrived broken and on a broken pallet dumped on the street outside our building. Despite numerous emails KRD continues to ignore us, haven’t picked up the faulty freezer and provide a refund. They should be ashamed of themselves and their customer service is despicable. Buyer beware.

Superb

Superb company. I ordered an industrial mixer for my fledgling business and I have to say it was a very smooth transaction. Even the courier gave me a hand to get it into the premises as it weighed 91kg. 10 out of 10
