(Image removed from quote.)Doesn't look like many happy people on Ice Gator's face book. I understand regardless of the company people will have complaints, but Usually a company doesn't have this many upset customers and stay in business.I'm sure it's not a bad product, I looked into one a year or so ago. I decided against buying one since the customer reviews on service and support were pretty unfriendly to say the least. For the kind of money being spent on one of the units I didn't care to gamble on lucking out with getting a unit that wouldn't need service down the road. Wow. That ain't good.
lots of reports filed with the BBB. i had one of the first icegators up here in canada and it was fantastic...until i had to repair the whole damn thing myself after just about breaking a wrist, and not being able to get a return phone call because they were at a church picnic. too bad, it could be a great product if they had just sold off the idea. there used to be lots of negative posts on here that have since been deleted as icegator was a site sponsor. mine now sits in a box in the closet while i rip through ice with my m18 fuel drill and finboreIII. at least the gator batteries get used to run my trail cam.
If any of you paid them and haven't received you auger, I'd get on the phone with the credit card company or bank and file a fraud claim to get your money back. Also you can and probably should file a complaint with the police and the state's attorney general's office since this would be a theft case.
Boy Im glad they didn't return any of my emails about pricing..... For once I chose wisely since I was ready to buy one.
I own a 24v lithium ion ice gator. Love the auger and the speed which it rips through the ice . However, I recently had a problem with the battery charger, and since my e-mails for a new one went unanswered, I decided to jump ship and buy a demo Solo 2 1/2 HP powerhead for my 6" Lazer instead. I called all the listed Ice Gator dealers on their website, and was told by one that the company had recently gone out of business. If anyone has an extra and/or unused 24v lithium battery charger lying around, I would gladly take it off your hands.
Icegator website has been taken down, man this sucks I hope someone buys his patent so I can buy some more flitings
Yea, it's not a good situation. I feel sorry for all of the people that sent him money and never got what they paid for, and now aren't getting any response.
