Dualit Opiniões 

We ordered a coffee grinder, when it arrived the hooper was broken and cracked. Following an email a replacement part arrived within a few days. Excellent product excellent company, highly recommend.

I purchased a Dualit Architect kettle from what is called the "Dualit Store" on Amazon in Jan 2024 and it's been used for 3 of the 5 months since then.

Something that sounds like a metallic screw has come loose inside the base and rattles around when the kettle is used and of course anything metallic in the proximity of 240V is also a safety issue.

Amazon just say it's up to Dualit to repair. Dualit say it's Amazon and the "Dualit Store" is nothing to do with them which begs the question why do they allow their name to be used in such a deceptive way? I have previously read that customers with issues get bounced between the two companies and now it's happening to me.

The Dualit solution is to return the kettle to them for a repair which will take 15 working days and I only got to that point after escalating my problem to their MD after complaining that their original estimate was at least a month. Sorry, but that's unacceptable as I will have to buy a new kettle anyway to get me through at least three weeks and a brand new kettle should not have a loose part inside.

Dualit trade on their "Britishness" but what they hide away is that their products are made in China and we all know about the quality of products made there.

The measure of a company is how well they respond to problems. I've owned Dualit kitchen appliances for many years but will never buy another and strongly advise other consumers to do their research first because a kettle that's just under £100 should not fail within such a short space of time.

I, like many others here, did copious research when it came time for me to buy a new kettle in 2022 and everyone was touting that Dualit kettles are hardy and last alike their toasters. I had been buying cheap supermarket/Russell hobbs kettles for years and they would last anywhere from 3 - 6 years and scuff, look unsightly or break down so I sprung for the Dualit Architect 1.5L kettle purchased from Hughes for a sum of no less than £89. It was delivered 27th August 2022, and by 13th November 2022 the thermostat cut-off had failed so the kettle just boiled and boiled until you turned it off at the switch, Hughes provided me with a replacement kettle in November 2022 and it's now June 2024 - throughout the time I've had it on a few occasions it's rolling boiled in the same broken way as the original unit and today it now will not stop boiling at all the same as the original unit I received. I called Hughes but alas it is out of warranty with them. I called Dualit as a result who informed me it 'can't be repaired' and whilst pleasant, Denise could offer me 34% off a different kettle (as if I'd buy another! A naff £5 kettle from Tesco lasted longer!!!). I am floored they sell products at such a high price point to be so rubbish they don't last longer than 18 months, and don't offer repair on them, leaving me £89 out with no kettle now! Doing some research online it would be appear that I am not alone, there are a litany reviews saying their architect series items have failed and I think it's a travesty they clearly ship out short-wearing items touting them as long-lasting and high quality. Avoid and get a kettle from another brand I'm absolutely gutted and can't afford another kettle during the cost of living crisis so I'm now just without one, my husband is equally disappointed as this was a big expense for my low-income household and we had saved up our wedding money to get it.

What a fantastic company, went above and beyond to supply parts for a kettle purchased in the southern hemisphere in around 2016, returned to the UK in 2021 and the handle broke in 2024
I called for some help to buy parts but they sent out all parts completely free of charge

If one could give 0 stars to customer service and/or the expensive toaster I bought I would.
We replaced A 2 slot toster of Dualit to 4 slots toaster. Initially it worked fine but after 2 months it did not toast evenly with outer sides of the toaster.
I complained and they send me 2 new replacement elements.
It work for 2-3 months and again the outer sides of the toaster didn't work properly. I was asked by customer service to send the toaster back and they keep telling me that the toaster works fine. They told me that:1. I use the worng bread,2. that it takes the outer elements to heats slower, so, I have to turn on the toaster on first and only thereafter to put the bread in. What an unreasonable claim! They would not repair the problem and they would not replace the faulty toaster. It is under their warranty but not willingness to take responsibility. Shame on you Dualit, we thought you are proud of your products!

I paid £120 for a Dualit Architect toaster in the mistaken expectation it would be well worth the money as it would last the course.
Two years later (after very light use) it's broken and Dualit tell me that 'it happens' and this toaster can't be repaired. Make of that what you will. I just wish I'd spent half the money on a toaster that would in all likelihood still be working.
Suffice to say I won't be buying Dualit toasters ever again.

My kettle is broken, won’t boil without button being held down. The cost of repair is half the price of a new one, with no warranty. That seems like false economy. I’m afraid I won’t be buying anything from dualit again. This is now two kettles and a toaster broken. I’ve have appliances 1/3rd of the price last years longer. Both of the kettles have had the same fault so it’s clearly a defect in the product itself. What a shame you have lost a customer.

Reply: It’s over a third the price of the kettle and that price cannot be guaranteed it could be more once in for repair. Also, why have both kettles had exactly the same fault just months after their warranty? Feels like a con

Kettle only lasted two years 6 months started leaking company did not want to know out of warranty
You don’t expect this when you consider the cost of goods

Useless toaster. It is a completely random experience - sometimes burnt, sometimes hardly toasted on the same setting. I hate it.

Second toaster from Dualit burnt out. Contacted them about Dualit kettle that would not switch off and they never responded back. They don’t manufacture their items so when you talk to them they tell you they have to contact the manufacturer. Ridiculous mark up for a mediocre products

Replaced my kettle with 30 per cent discount came next day delivery

Spoke to a lady from uk on a telephone

It was the best service I have received

Thank you Dualit keep doing what your doing such great customer service

Dualit used to be a quality brand but the two dome kettles I have bought in the last 4 years have both failed. The first one stopped turning off and would continue to boil unless you manually turned it off yourself, and the one I bought as a replacement for that one is now unusable as the perspex water gauge has become very badly crazed and chucks of plastic keep falling off it into the kettle. A quick Google search shows that this is a common fault. Why can’t you make them without plastic inserts? Why is it not possible to buy quality products anymore? Customer service’s response “Just chuck it”!

I am writing to express my hurt and disappointment with Dualit 1. 5 Litre Kettle that I purchased from a stockist in Australia earlier this year.

The large faulty red illuminated press down button has been royally discombobulated underneath the 4-pronged handle and is no longer functioning.

I am dissatisfied with the over-inflated price I paid for this kitchen appliance and am concerned about the grave danger it could have potentially caused to our safety due to it's electrical misappropriation.

Given these circumstances, I would appreciate it if you could provide a satisfactory resolution to this issue by giving back our money, safety and health in the future.

Thank you for your understanding. 😜

... Thank you Dualit for your reply....It seems there's been a bit of a hot water hiccup with your Dualit kettle – quite the steamy saga! But fear not, for the customer service wizards have been consulted, and their sage advice is like a soothing cup of tea for your troubles. So, while the kettle may be giving you the cold shoulder, rest assured that following the path laid out by the Dualit team will soon have you back to brewing up storms in a teacup. In the meantime, let's pour one out for the unsung heroes of our kitchens – the trusty appliances that keep our days brewing smoothly. Cheers to a speedy resolution, and may your future be filled with perfect pours and zero appliance uproars!

Brilliant spares service. I have a 15 year old Dualit kettle. The spout filter failed. Dualit answered my query within a couple of hours, provided order details and sent me a replacement filter for £3, including postage. Then sent me a follow up receipt via the post. Dualit products may be more expensive, but they last and Dualit are happy to provide ongoing support. Absolutely brilliant - and pretty unique in this throw-away age. Other firms need to learn from them

We bought a Classic kettle a few years ago. Very disappointed to see Dualit have sold out like all the others -they misleadingly display the union jack prominently on the packaging but weasel words say "engineered" in UK. However product made in China probably very cheaply yet they still charge an arm and a leg for it. Lo and behold a few years later after the kettle has been failing to switch off when boiling for 9 months it has no failed completely. Not the plug/power source or fuse. Not water scale as our water is incredibly soft do things don't scale up here. I've read on line they only last 3 years some less. So sad as other UK made products like our toaster and coffee grinder have lasted donkeys years. won't be buying them any more. Well done Dualit, that's what you get for subcontracting out to cheap Chinese producers, in the long run it will do you irreparable harm. I hope it was worth it.

Bought a bean to cup machine back in November. As expected, a lovely well built machine and compared to other makes, really good value. Loved the machine and the coffee, even posting a five star review

Last month, the machine started to spew water and coffee out the nozzle head. The machine was always properly cleaned and descaled so unlikely to be a blockage

Contacted customer services via email. No reply. Used contact form and also follow up email. No apology for delay in replying just curtly told they deal with emails in order. My suggestion that they put an auto reply out to at least confirm they’ve got the message was ignored … every other company does this so not sure why Dualit can’t

The response was descale the machine (even though they’d been advised this had been done) and to poke cocktail sticks in the nozzle … did this still spewing water

Customer service agreed to collect machine and get it looked at and said the repair would be ‘fast tracked’

It was the Easter period so expected some delay but a week later still hadn’t had an update

Contacted customer service again … day later had a reply saying they’d chased this up with the repairs department who would be sending out a replacement

- no explanation as to what had gone wrong with the original machine
- no explanation as to why customer service don’t check on the progress themselves
- no apology about faulty machine

I dealt with the same representative throughout and their approach seems to be defensive, not accepting of feedback and not fully understanding what excellent customer service should look like

A goodwill gesture for the inconvenience would have been nice … some coffee perhaps … but nothing … no explanation, no ‘sorry we could have done better’

A good machine, but alas would no longer recommend Dualit due to their customer service

Perhaps I was unlucky with the person I dealt with

I purchased both the Dualit Lite Kettle and Toaster at end of 2011, both items are no longer fit for purpose, just after the warranty expired they started to not work properly. The Dualit Lite kettle will not turn off, I have followed the trouble shooting methods on Dualit website but it still will not turn off, I also purchased a spare part to repair but Dualit parts are not universal. The Dualit toaster never toasted evenly to start with, unfortunately both are destined for the recycle and landfill. First time I have purchased Dualit, my last Russel Hobbs toaster and kettle lasted over 8 years. Dualit are over priced and not premium quality as you might expect. And it would be nice if a company offered a repair service, such a waste of resources.

Have/had many Dualit toasters, kettles etc. The 7 year old kettles perspex side gauges started to crack so bought a new on last month but its so very noisy compared to the old one yet is identical model.
Very disappointing, sounds like a combustion engine on a bad day.

Update to review.
Further to a previous 1 star review about the Dualit Long Lite Toaster, having had 2 in 2.5 years which failed, Dualit replied asking me to contact them.

They asked me to return the latest toaster to fail, and although the whole process is a little time consuming etc. Dualit did replace the toaster, even though it was just outside their guarantee period. How long this one lasts remains to be seen, but the product does perform well when working, and Dualit I think give a 6 month grace period after a guarantee has expired where they will repair/replace a faulty product it seems. Only wish I'd realised it when my first one broke!

We had a problem with our refurbished Lite toaster . Called customer service and was immediately answered by a friendly member of staff, who after checking the problem promptly came back with some options. It left an impression that we were valued customers and that the our query was important to Dualit, so we decided to upgrade to a Classic Toaster. Will definitely recommend to family and friends.
