Dometic - Factory default
Dometic - Factory default - Image 2

We bought a Dometic 300 toilet and they have a manufacturing default, and when I tried to get them to replace it, they wouldn't do anything without proof of purchase of our 5th wheel or if we were first or second owners of it and proof of purchase of the toilet. You would think if the company knows about a default in their product, they would be a little more willing to help with the wrong, but no!!! Everyone I talked to was short with responses and wasn't willing to help at all, even with showing proof of having the toilet and the leaking of sewage!!!

Loss:

Pros:
  • There are no pros
Cons:
  • Pro customer service

  • - Dometic toilet in my camper leaks sewage between the base and the bowl.
  • - A recall exists for these toilets.
  • - Installed in 2019, it's over 3 years old.

We have a Dometic toilet in our camper that is leaking sewage between the base and the bowl. There is a recall on them.

The toilet was installed in our RV in 2019. The leaking of the sewage just started. Because the toilet is more than 3 years old from the installation, they want to honor their recall. How were we to know there was a problem with the toilet?

This company stinks just like their toilets. They could care less about their customers!

Loss:
$250
Cons:
  • Could care less about their customers

Preferred solution: Replacement

Dometic - Trying to locate a Atwood product
Updated by user Dec 18, 2024

Customer service was nice but the company discontinued the appliance I was inquiring about 10 years ago.

Original review Dec 16, 2024

Atwood was a small appliance manufacturer that was bought out by a company called Dometic. I am trying to find a water heater for a camper that was built built by Atwood in 1999.

This item was discontinued 10 years ago. I'm OK with that but it would be nice if their catalog and contact information got updated.

After much frustration I contacted Dometic and learned what I need to know but that may not have happened without the help of Pissed Consumer! Thank you!

User's recommendation: Don't buy obsolete vehicles unless you like hunting for information.

Dometic - To ask a question?Why is it so difficult.

So, the one that they had, I couldn't talk to anybody. You gave me a key and a bunch of information. It seemed useless for a phone call, and I still got nowhere.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - I bought an RV awning motor from Amazon for $400.
  • - Listing claimed 1-year warranty.
  • - It lasted 10 months; Amazon won't help.
Updated by user Jul 31, 2024

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with product replacement. I had to contact a Mobile RV Tech to diagnose and document the failure with pictures, provide a receipt from Amazon, and a Pic of the label on the awning itself.

Updated by user Jul 31, 2024

I ended up buying a off brand motor for $150 from Amazon deliver within a week to allow me to retract my awning for storms and to have the ability to tow the trailer. I received it and works fine.

It is the exact same part, the housing even has the same casting stamps as the Dometic. The only difference is that there is no Dometic symbol on the housing that attached to the arm. I finally was able to get a positive response from Dometic by contacting a mobile RV Tech to diagnose/verify my motor being failed. That receipt, emailed to Dometic support, has initiated a replacement being mailed.

Now I have a spare that I really should not have to use if the parts are quality.The frustrating part is that the mobile tech diagnosing my issue is a $280 fee, where I am fully capable, and have the tools on hand to do this myself. But Dometic would not take my word or pictures as proof.

Original review Jul 21, 2024
Last year in September, I purchased a replacement RV awning motor for a defective part on my RV (a 2020 model manufactured in 2019). I ordered my part through Amazon.com for $400, which has a 30-day return policy.

In the ad, they claimed a 1-year warranty that is through the manufacturer. The part lasted 10 months and now I am trying to get a replacement from Dometic. I have the digital receipt from Amazon for the purchase.

They are refusing to do anything for my issue, stating I didn't buy the part from them. Now I'm stuck at a campground with an awning that has no way of retracting without removing the whole unit, or (according to Dometic) buying a $500 motor from them or their dealer.

User's recommendation: Don't buy Dometic products, they are cheaply made, way overpriced and the company doesn't stand behind their products.
