When calling KitchenAid for customer service or product information, callers should be prepared to spend time on the phone navigating the various options. I called KitchenAid to speak with a representative about a new gas range and it took nearly 15 minutes to wade through the automated menus and connect with a representative.
Callers are given two options when the automated system begins: press 1 for help with major appliances or 2 for countertop/small appliances. I chose 1 since I wanted to discuss potential gas ranges. After this, the recording tells callers to press 1 for Spanish or stay on the line for English. I was next given a menu of choices including service/product help, ordering parts, order assistance, warranty help or product registration. I was also told to press 0 to repeat the menu and needed to do this once.
After I figured out I needed to speak with someone regarding product help, I selected that choice and waited while another recording informed me that 24-hour online service is available at Whirlpool's website. A quick online search revealed that KitchenAid is owned by Whirlpool, a fact I didn't know. In addition, the automated system also reminded me that scheduling appliance service is only advisable for those who haven't been exposed to and/or experienced Covid-19 symptoms within the last 5 days.
At this point in the call, I was given the option to choose product support based on either a product I've already purchased or one I wanted to purchase. I went with the latter and waited on the phone to be connected to a representative. However, I was prompted to enter in my phone number, which wasn't found in the system. This makes sense as I hadn't purchased anything from KitchenAid.
I was put on a brief hold as the automated system reported that I was being directed to the appropriate department. After a five-minute wait, I was finally connected to a representative who asked how she could help me. Explaining that I was considering a new gas range, the rep asked me questions regarding my budget, the type of range I currently have and the reason for seeking a new one. As I shared that my gas stove is aging and would need to be replaced soon, the rep directed me to KitchenAid's website to consider a few options available. She explained that as a new customer, I could take advantage of discounts on large appliances.
Most online orders over a specific price qualify for free shipping, the rep let me know, but I could also visit local retailers to see the gas range in person and purchase there. This seemed like a better option and she provided a list of a few stores nearby. However, she advised me to consider an online purchase directly from KitchenAid as I may get a better deal. I appreciated the rep's help and recommendations without any pressure to make an immediate decision.
