Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 1,167 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers appreciate the quick and efficient delivery, noting prompt arrival and good communication. Products like vacuums and some appliances are often found easy to assemble and effective. When connecting with a human representative, people generally report helpful, polite, and efficient assistance, with engineers often praised for being punctual and professional. However, a significant number express frustration with automated customer service, finding it unhelpful and time-consuming.

Some customers report faulty or damaged products upon delivery, or recurring appliance faults that are not adequately resolved. Concerns also arise regarding long repair times and the unavailability of spare parts.

This is pathetic

This is pathetic. I called hoover number given to me by engineer to collect & replace a brand new tumble drier & they told me I have to go through Amazon. Which are no good what so ever as I can’t get anywhere with them. £300 tumble dryer bought on the 4/8/26 doesn’t work & no help from anyone. 😡😡😡

Good Afternoon Jacqueline anne Stojanovic,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are very sorry to hear about your experience and sincerely apologise for the frustration and disappointment this has caused. We understand how upsetting it must be to have a brand new tumble dryer that is not working, particularly after being referred between ourselves and Amazon without receiving the support you were expecting.

This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention.

We would love the opportunity to investigate your case further. Please email us at social.media@hoovercandy.com with your full name, full address including your postcode, and a copy of your review. Our team will be happy to carry out a full investigation and work towards resolving your concerns.

Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to assist you further.

Kind Regards,

Purchased the HF3 anti hair wrap and really surprised with the performance. We have 2 dogs that drop hair and dirty, it picks everything up and never gets stuck on the brush. Powerful suction. Only negative is the battery runs out quickly if on powerful mode.

We also appreciate your feedback regarding the battery life on the powerful mode, and we'll be sure to pass your comments on to the relevant team.

Cancelling a repair was ridiculously hard.

Needed to cancel my repair due to illness, but the process was ridiculous. Website was down, chat was useless, automated phone menu was infuriating. First customer service person couldn’t help so transferred me to Ai bot, which was again useless & repetitive. Finally got through to someone sensible who then had to transfer my enquiry!

I was just trying to do the right thing and save the engineer a wasted journey.

Another negative review!

Well well well. How did I know the reviews would be bad!
I’m here to add another one. I bought a hoover washing machine just under a year ago (so it’s still covered by the one year warranty).
I thought I had a problem with this machine so attempted to contact Hoover service to arrange a repair. What a disgrace! When you phone you get a robot who asks all the details. After answering all the questions it said because the machine is not covered by a service contract (but still under guarantee) I needed to speak to a different department. Having held on for about 20 minutes I get the same robot who asks me the same question and tells me I need to speak to a different department. It’s a farce going around in circles. Coincidentally? I get a letter from Hoover today asking if I want a service contract!!!
Completely terrible after sales service.
My advice? Buy another make.

Good morning, Trev

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

We are sorry to hear about your experience when trying to contact our service team and apologise for the frustration caused by the difficulties you encountered while trying to arrange assistance.

We understand how disappointing it must have been to feel that you were unable to progress your query and that you were asked to repeat information. We appreciate that when an appliance is within the manufacturer's warranty period, customers expect the process of requesting support to be straightforward.

We would like the opportunity to review your experience and assist you further. Please email your full name, address, contact details, appliance details, and a copy of your review to social.media@hoovercandy.com, and we will investigate this for you.

Spoke to your planning department…

Spoke to your planning department regarding my mams 1 year old fridge which is the second one she has had as the first one was faulty now the fridge she has is starting with the same fault as the first one, only to be told she has to pay either £160 for engineer or sign upto a 12 month cover for £19.99 a month or a 3rd option was given to buy a new fridge, fridges should last way longer than 12 months. How is it possible the same fault has happened again!
We are considering our options on where to take this further as we are very unhappy with the customer service we were given, as a years life for a fridge is not acceptable
The 1 star is for the lovely lady I first spoke to before I was transferred to the planning dept.
I will most definitely not be recommending hoover appliances any time in the future.

Good morning Donna
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.
We are sorry to hear of the issues you have experienced with your fridge and appreciate how disappointing it must be.
We would like to clarify that our manufacturer warranty provides cover for the appliance within the applicable warranty period. Once the manufacturer warranty has expired, any engineer attendance and labour costs would become chargeable. This is in line with the standard warranty terms offered by other white goods manufacturers.
We are sorry for any frustration caused and thank you for your feedback, which will be shared with the relevant teams.

Avoid Hoover online purchases

Avoid any online purchases with this company if DPD is the courier. Both Hoover and DPD don't care that I have paid for an item I never received. It's not their concern. I was even asked to contact Haier and they would investigate but the upshot is I have paid for a cordless vacuum and yet I didn't receive it. Unfortunately, I am not in a position to purchase another one at the moment as it took me quite some time to save up enough money to purchase that one. Why a signature is not required for an expensive item is beyond me.

What customer service?

The call took over 45 minutes, 20 of which were wasted by the robot incapable of understanding English. After that, being placed on hold, passed from one clueless twit to another. Twits who clearly do not know of or have any understanding of UK trading laws or the Sale of Goods Act 1979. If a product (in our case a tumble dryer owned less than three months burns itself out) then the customer can demand a refund or replacement, especially if they have lost all confidence in the machine. Instead, several times Hoover's response was: we want to repair and will arrange this for the most inconvenient time possible, and if you do not accept that date, expect to wait weeks. They do not listen, read from scripts and use a system to make it as difficult and annoying as possible to get even basic statuatory rights.
As many others have noted, there is also pushing to sell the useless D&G policies, threats of payments, and each twit refused to say what department they belonged to. Having repeat myself several times, "go through security" half a dozen times does not leave a positive impression. Are call centre staff trained to be as vague, rude and unhelpful as these were?
By the way, this was the second Hoover product to catch fire, ironically the replacement for first failure. What quality?

Terrible service and poor product

Terrible service and poor product. Bought Hoover washing machine in January and it has broken twice in 7 months. Engineer appointment booked, cancelled as short of engineers. Rearranged and given 2 hour window and did not turn up in that timeframe. Called customer services and had to go through bot before speaking to a human. They hen advised it can be anytime all day and that is the way it is. Not happy

Awful awful awful

Awful awful awful . Even if you pay for insurance they can't provide a means of getting their awful product fixed. If you can afford to take 2 days off work for a simple fix. You might as well buy another product. They will not give you an appointment that's convenient for you regardless of how flexible you are they'll give you a slot the night before. Then do the same once the parts are ordered. Never buy Hoover
