We have been cheated by Eureka Forbes dealer Ultra Solutions, Bangalore. We have bought a Aquasure Water Purifier couple of months back. Till date we were unable to use it as it does not filter the water as they promise. Their service personnels replaced the filters. But no use. I am getting irritated every time I see it. I have been requesting Eureka Forbes dealer many times. No response. I may have to file a case with consumer court against Eureka Forbes and their dealer as no response from Eureka Forbes or Ultra Solutions so far.

We have been cheated by Eureka Forbes dealer Big Bazaar, Fatimanagar, Pune. We have bought a Aquasure Water Purifier couple of months back. Till date we were unable to use it as it does not filter the water as they promise. Not even single drop of water gets filterd. Their service personnels only promosing the setrvicing but never turns up. We are getting irritated every time I see it. We are been requesting Eureka Forbes dealer many times. No response. I may have to file a case with consumer court against Eureka Forbes and their dealer as no response from Eureka Forbes or Ultra Solutions so far.

Definately, they costs a lot in service and change all the filters in one yaer only saying that these are chocked..again the motor is not working fine so taking 3-4 hours for 5 liter only..sarive is too poor and do not respond afer even 20-30 calls..

Guys .. " DO NOT EVEN THINK OF TAKING AN RO FROM AQUAGUARD "

We purchased Aqua Sure Water filter two years back. First time we replaced the cartridge one year back.
Recently again the executive(I don’t know his name but the contact number is: [protected]) have come and changed new cartridge, but the new cartridge has lot of fungus and it is used one. So we called the executive and he checked and tried to replace it, but again the new cartridge also is bad having fungus..
So we called him immediately less than 40 minutes after he left, and asked him to remove the new cartridge and return our old catridge. but our used cartridge is not available with him..he has no answer..he has replaced our old cartridge to someone else.
So he gave our money back and escaped from my place...

We are really irritated...

I have the same stupid product, I am not able to get a new filter; I keep getting the answer that it is out of stock. I guess they don't sell it individually so that you get frustrated and get a new filter. Horrible customer service in Bangalore

I bought AQUA Sure Supreme 3000 water purifier on 29 Aug '08 at Coimbatore. The water is not purified properly. Sediments and external insects (ants) are found at the bottom every week while opening for cleaning. This product needs much more research and development. Beware of buying. Ask for one week trial period before buying.

I strongly agree Eureka Forbes is headed by a band of cheats and thugs in collusion with dealers who equally are expert cheats with arrogance like in my case it's Forbe's dealer in Gurgaon for aquasure
M/S Goodlife ( rather it should be BADLIFE ) because this nexus of co.
and dealer are passing on worthless product to consumers.I have been suffering at the hands of this nexus for last 1 year and despite selling a defective product the dealer is charging Rs. 550/- for a replacement cartridge which costs only Rs. 300/- only as told by one Mr. Pritam from Delhi office. I would request M/S BAD LIFE ( soooory GOOD LIFE ) should be given the best prize for customer service as he follows the co.'s policy in toto by looting, cheating and challenging consumers to do whatever they can.

I agree with all the above statements. I think that this product is useless & no one should buy it.
Not functioning at all several times. It is really a useless design and not fit for Housewife. Many a timed it does not work at all.
I wonder how such a foolish design is accepted by this once upon a time renouned company. Now Eureka Forbes has last its fame because of this product.

Now we are using it as a dust-bin!

The best worst product you can opt for water purification.
Purchase it and put it aside as a show piece. It will take 100 days to purify a glass of water if you are lucky. Then drink it if you are alive. So i prefer this product to give as a gift to my frinds whom i dislike.

I have never expected these type of complaint aganst Eureka Forbs, As per the company they feel these products are very good. They only select professonal guys for work. Now these complaints are proving that all proffessonels how they are working in the organaisation.

It is fine against Pureit which is lesser price than this. But the Chlorine smell emennates and causes discomfort in abdomen with pureit. Aqua sure contains iodine filter which is comfortable and protective. But aqu SURE TAP IS GIVING TROUBLE-THEY SHD MODIFY TO AVOID LEKAGE. THE QUANTITY IS ALSO MORE THAN PUREIT.

I agree with all the above statements. I have purchased this filter a month back it was working for a few days and now it is not working. I have tried changing the cartridges and getting in touch with the company but it is of no use as they refuse to have it rectified. I think this particular product needs to be taken off the market so that people like us who are looking for safe drinking water do not get cheated. It is not as if they will refund our money back to us, so effectively it is just a waste of money.

The above Gentlemen have spoken all the truth about the product. I faced a problem that the filter gives a bad smell with the water output. It of course stopped after a month. But, the person whom I recommended is still facing the smell problem, it is almost 7 months now.

Please do not buy this product. Its a waste of Money, buying bad health.

I bought the Aqua sure filter 15 days back. The dealer promised me that there would be no leakage at all, but despite the promise the leakage is happening and hence I reported to customer service. But there is no proper response from them and they are unable to find the proper person who can rectify the problem. I think it is the waste of money spending on this kind of product and service is absolutely poor.

I really found the same issue. They have delivered me very old Manufactured date M/C after taking the order. Fortunately, I have seen the manufacturing date before opening the BOX. Now i am not ready to get this M/c install. They are threatening me for the Legal Court Case. They are so arrogant and dishonest people.
