GBJoule Needs TLC but CS MIA Long time Breville customer and while some of the appliances have had their issues, they were hands down the best. But my 9m old Joule which has been used almost daily with absolutely no issues suddenly started the fan squeal of death which is getting louder by the day. Tried sending in support ticket via app, no response. Tried calling and getting stuck in hold and call back hell. Tried to use app to send in small video but 25MB is crazy, like 1996 crazy. So that didn't work. Totally get that the volume of support requests is probably way larger than CS agents on staff but you guys used to be the best. If the appliance wasn't so expensive I might just let it go but 1) it was very spendy, and 2) bought it directly from Breville so if any issues came up would be easy to deal with (hahaha) and I admit I have way less patience to chase down talking to someone who can assist than I did a decade ago but I should not have to spend hours on the phone waiting or waiting for a call back or wondering why an app inquiry remains without comment after 4 days. And the online chat has been offline every time I look so that's not helpful. Hoping the warranty doesn't run out or the Joule doesn't quit on me before someone gets back to me.

GBi Have a Breville blender/juicer and… i Have a Breville blender/juicer and use this every day...love it. i reached out because a small handle on the blender top had broken off and while i was still able to use it, i wanted to get it replaced. Not knowing whether i was still in warranty or not, i reached out to customer support. Michelle R was absolutely amazing and helpful and responsive. Basically i did not have my receipt because this was a gift, but she replaced it anyway without a charge as a courtesy to me. Because i was receipt-less, i was willing to purchase a new one, but again she was wonderful and sent me a new one no charge....Thank you Michelle and Breville

CAConfusing interaction with customer support I purchased a replacement part for my milk frother from Amazon. It was flawed, and did not fit. Amazon online instructions for returning this item with a manufacturing defect was to directly contact Breville. I emailed Breville with all the required information including a photo of the part. Instead I had to provide the serial number of my milk frother to then be told the frother was no longer under warranty but would send me a new part as a courtesy. I tried to convey that I purchased the part, it was not manufactured correctly and therefore did not fit. It had nothing to do with my frother or the age of my frother and I was not looking for warranty coverage. I was also informed that I should have dealt with Amazon for the problem. I provided screen shots of Amazon’s online information and direction to contact Breville when I attempted a return through Amazon. I thought it would be pretty simple to say here is a Breville part I bought, it’s defective, please replace it. I did receive the courtesy replacement part, but was made to feel like I was trying to get a free part for some other reason. It was a confusing interaction.

CAHad an issue with our Breville kettle Had an issue with our Breville kettle. They replaced it free of charge and also free shipping even though it wasn’t under warranty anymore. Much appreciated!

GBAnother good experience. Decent response time, they made me aware that I had bought a refurb food processor on Amazon when i wasn't even aware of it myself. Not the first time I've had to call Breville, but each time I've needed a part or a fix, they've been very responsive.
