Defective Premium Product & Warranty Concerns—Only Helped by One Representative

I purchased a high-end keyboard, expecting top-notch quality for over €300, but it arrived completely unusable. Many keys either spammed inputs or didn’t respond at all. Research revealed this is a common issue affecting numerous users, as discussed on various forums. Such a defect at this price point is unacceptable. Initial Support Experience—The Attempted Deception:
Upon requesting a refund, the support team suggested I cut the keyboard's cable and send proof of destruction to speed up the process. This felt like a predatory tactic; doing so would void my warranty and leave me with no choice but to accept a replacement, likely to fail soon, rather than getting my money back. It seemed deliberately intended to trap customers. The Delays:
For two weeks, I faced nothing but postponements and vague assurances. I was well within my consumer protection rights, but each delay cost me time and leverage. I had to escalate repeatedly and threaten formal complaints to achieve any progress. The Change—One Representative:
Everything shifted when a representative took over my case. She: Actually listened to my concerns Provided a prepaid return label promptly Monitored my shipment proactively Kept me informed at every step Processed my full refund shortly after receiving the keyboard back Thanks to her, I regained faith in the support, but she was clearly an exception. Final Thoughts:
This company offers premium products with significant, common defects. Their standard support process seems designed to wear customers down into accepting replacements instead of refunds. It was only through persistence that I reached someone who resolved my issue professionally. Advice: Document everything, understand your consumer rights, and be ready to escalate if necessary. The representative demonstrated that they can provide proper support—they just won’t do so without pressure.
