Terrible - about right

published

This is the last of my knives - apparently I’ve been told can’t get warrantee on this as out of business ? The last one broke when a glass fell on it and yes the glass survived unscathed but broke my knive in half - Wt? - these two broke as my breadboard fell over making my knife set fall. CRAPPPPP no quality

Giantz rubbish

published

Poorly made. Wheels installed on angle causing it to tilt & tip over when moving. Company offered apology but would not replace item as it was out of their warranty period. I told them them that this did not comply with Aust consumer law. They asked if I could fix it myself. They sell heaps on Ebay. Junk.

Pressure cooker dangerous.

published

I had the pressure cooker explode in my face. The pressure cooker was less then 12mths old. Do not ever use a chefs toolbox pressure cooker again. I was left with burns over my face and body. I have written off to the company with of course no response.

Replacement Saute Pan

I too have been contacting them since August 2018 and after many emails in October they promised to send me a replacement saute pan within the next 4 - 6 weeks. Still waiting! Now I don't get any response at all.

Two knives broke

published

I purchased a large knife & it broke while chopping almonds. They were great about replacing it quickly with a new one that broke too. I emailed with no response.. didn’t realize they had gone down. Now I have an incredibly expensive pressure cooker with a seal that needs replacing

I was given a set of their knives for xmas, well the largest knife got a crack in it, so it was sent back. Was told there was a fault with a number of knives and it would be replaced..........umm that was a year ago now! I would not recommend this company to anyone at the moment.

Not impressed

published

I have had 3 knives simply break in my hand. The frying pan has black bits falling off and the grater survived 1 month. These items were expensive and you would expect better

Awaiting my order!

published

Unfortunately, I am unable to give out a grand review on my product, as I have been waiting for it to be delivered since December 2018 and have not had any news on when it will be delivered.

Please Chefs Toolbox, please contact me with some positive news!

Fusion Knife sheared in half !

published

The handle of my Fusion Knife sheared away from the blade while cutting a pumpkin. I wrote to the company in August 2018 and was told they were aware of the issue and seeking replacement knives from the manufacturer. Haven't heard a thing...just chasing this up again, only to find the company has gone into liquidation.

I paid $110 for the knife while attending a high end Cooking class in the Adelaide Hills....I assumed the knife would be of high quality and fit for purpose.

NOT HAPPY JAN !!! Where is Consumer Affairs when you need it !

Disgusting! - my expensive set of knives are now missing one!

published

no customer service

published

Put in a warranty claim for sauté pan. no response called several times and was told that one would be shipped to me. Claim was lodged in July 2018 nothing received as yet and just found out they under liquidation pathetic!

Still waiting shocking response

published

I put a claim in last May for 2 knives that are under warranty as the rubber handles have all bubbled. Was told they were going to send them out from Switzerland. I rang them every month until no one even answers the phone anymore. I spent thousands $ on chefs toolbox products. Just shocking no one gets back to you. Awaiting response...

No square roaster pan either

published

I also ordered and paid for the square roaster pan in their July special. I rang them in October, and they said it would be delivered in November, in time for Christmas. I just went to try and get on their website, so that I could email them, and the site wouldn't load, then I saw an ASIC thing saying they had gone into liquidation. It would be really nice if someone could tell us something, and where do we go to from here?

Unable to contact Chefs Toolbox

published

I too ordered a square roaster in July, have rung several times but phone just rings out, I have emailed so many times but never get a response. Has Chefs Toolbox gone broke? It looks like I have done my money. The customer service is zero,very disappointing that no one has ever bothered to get back to me

Ordered square roaster in July, emailed in October saying delivery delayed but will be Late November
Similar to other reviews have only got an automated email re changing systems.
Don’t know what to do now?
Have they gone into liquidation?

Carol L.asked

If anyone didn't receive Chefs Toolbox products that they paid for, please go to your bank and advise them that you paid Chefs Toolbox for goods and didn't receive them because they went into liquidation (they will look it up on ABN search) i.e. you didn't receive the goods in exchange for the money you paid so you should get a refund.
