Hey. I’m new to this forum and I know this probably isn’t the proper place to be saying hello but hi. I have a quick question for all ya wanhao users. I’m just wondering how the customer service has treated ya all? I ordered the duplicator i3 v2.1 with the 2 extra rolls of pla. I made this order on new years eve a couple minutes to midnight. I received the email for the conformation of the order. A separate email for the invoice. And a 3rd email basically saying thank you for the purchase. I knew there wasn’t going to be anyone working when I made the order and I didn’t expect anyone to work till this past Tuesday. So I didn’t expect an email saying that my order was full filled and shipped Between Wednesday and Thursday I sent a single email each day just asking if there was going to be a tracking number or anything. No response. Now today I sat on there website with there instant messaging chat open. I wrote everything out and waited for someone to sign on and answer my question. I sat there for 1.5 hours waiting and no one ever signed on. I even left the computer and chat open while I went to work. My mother was then using the computer and she even said no one ever connected to speak with her. At this point I almost feel like I’m being scammed from wanhao. Anyone else have these issues? Ive been wanting a 3d printer for years and know that I actually ordered one from what’s supposed to be a reputable company. I feel like I’m getting scammed or my order just went in the trash
Very good in my experience but it really is dependent on your local distributor and their own customer service as you rarely speak directly to China. Although, on the occasion that i have spoken to them, they are also very helpful despite the language barrier.
I am a Monoprice owner, but I have heard that you should not call or notify the US Wanhao distributor, but instead contact the China Home Office Customer service.
As for your being scammed, I don’t believe so. Wanhao is a reputable company, although their reputation for a speedy ordering process is well known by all in the community as non-existent. I have seen stories of printers taking upwards of 3 months to arrive. Most owners will tell you to work through the US Distributor instead for your order but not your support. I would think that at this point all you can try to do is relax and wait. I believe your printer will come and you will be happy with it. BTW the Wanhao and its clones (ie the Monoprice I3) have a huge community of users, which are more then happy to help you at any time by sharing their experiences and knowledge.
Hi Shawn. I bought my Wanhao DS5 Mini from Technology Outlet. Placed the order at midnight on 22 Dec and it arrived on Christmas Eve with no problems. Whilst this doesn’t help your situation with Wanhao if you’ve bought direct, it may help if you continue to have problems and decide to cancel your order. I got a very good price on my printer too.
i also ordered the wanhao d6 that when it arrived never worked,still is not working…contacted the support many times even chatted with some,but when they understand its a guarantee issue they simply dont answear 1000$ down the drain
