I purchased 2 USB braided 6 foot cables and they started to slow down or not work. The charging capacity was lessened. I contacted Monoprice and their customer service is excellent from beginning to end. The customer service representative Jon Christian accommodated me immediately without a hassle or any questions asked. The only questions they asked was which color I wanted and to let me know the one color wasn't available and they would replace it with another. The customer service team of Monoprice is one I would like to deal with again in the future. I plan on purchasing more products from them in the future. Thank you very much for the hassle free customer service! I encourage all to purchase their products!
WATCH OUT FOR THIS COMPANY! They are highly disreputable and it may be best to go elsewhere. I ordered an optical wire for $13.92 and needed it next day. Monoprice charged me $31.29 SHIPPING for next day delivery. That brought the total to $45.21 for the item. Then the company waited a full day to ship because the order was placed at 2:08PM and somewhere in the small print there is a cutoff time of 2:00PM. An 8 minute difference.
It was a Thursday so Monoprice's delay of a day means I will get the cable on Monday. That's four days later and they kept the shipping cost.
Customer service just told me to read the fine print more carefully.
This kind of slight of hand should be avoided on the internet. A firm like Amazon would never have such poor service.
Federal Express would have had it to me the next morning but they use UPS... no doubt for a better rate and to make more on shipping than on the product. Order #*******
Their policy is to wait 3-6 days to issue you a refund. That is too long in my opinion. Been over two weeks and have not gotten my package. Escalated my issue on paypal to try to get a speedier refund
Jan,
I apologize for the issues you have had receiving your refund. If you have not got this taken care of please reach out to me directly at escalations@monoprice.com and I would be happy to assist.

I bought a used Mini Pro from auction only to find it had a damaged bed sensor (fairly common from what the 'internet' says lol). So, on a whim I found their support email and requested some information on it. They were empathetic that they couldn't provide technical specs on the actual inductor but in the same email stated they were out of stock but I could buy from Gigdigit.com for replacement parts. Almost nobody gives out actual part specs (they don't have them anyways) but at least Monoprice directed me to where I could buy at least the complete sensor module.
Like I said, even though the printer is less than a year old but bought used they helped me out. I'm grateful for the answer they gave me, I feel confident that they value the concept of good product support.
Thank you Brian for the feedback! We appreciate you sharing your experience with our support staff!

I have been buying products from the Monoprice website for years now. The equipment has always been as advertised and of surprising quality for the price. I have always felt that I got very good value for my money. I have bought equipment from video cable to electrical connectors, tools, and electronic items. In the few instances where there was a defect with a purchase or I was not happy with the product, I was able to easily work with the staff to get the equipment returned and a refund. I regularly recommend this website to my friends and acquaintances.
Thank you for the review John! We appreciate your business and the business you have refereed!

I've ordered a fair amount from Monoprice and the few times I've had a problem, they have been super helpful and easy to work with. On my last order, one of my earbuds unexpectedly stopped working after a few days of use. They replaced them quickly and easily.
Thank you Daniel for your review, we appreciate it!

Great place to order cables, adapters, tv wall mounts etc. Very good service and low prices. When something when wrong they made it right. They have customer reviews and very good customer and technical phone support
For all the things they have packed into this small amp and have kept the price down so you don't need to refinance your home to buy it and as awesome as it sounds, I rate this amp and the company 10 out of 10!
Thank you Jeff for the feedback! We appreciate it very much!

Avoid Monster cables... get cheap cables and AV gear - It always makes me laugh when I see people at Best Buy picking up the overpriced Monster cables and accessories. Anyone really into AV gear gets their cables and accessories online. This is one of the better places to get your gear.
Thier customer service is amazing what most companies lack nowadays. I was having some issues with my speaker they paid to have it shipped back and they shipped another back out to me all at the original cost of what i paid for the speaker. Their product is an amazing bluetooth party speaker. My whole family has made use of it... we take to the beach The cheer competition where we live has even used it... When I get a good deal I speak on it, as well as if I get a bad one.
I have used mono price for many years and am very happy with the quality of the cables and other electronics I have purchased from them.
One cable did go bad after a month so I called customer support for a replacement cable. They asked me some questions and told me they would make an RMA request. I got an email soon after telling me they would send the replacement cable and I did not have to send them the bad one in return. Now that's what I call real customer service!
They are the best.
It's not hyperbole when I say that the Monoprice Tech Team members are right there with timely and practical solutions, within two business days. I own a Select Mini 3D printer, and, being a neophyte in the world of 3D printer, I encountered several SD Micro card issues and printing challenges. The Monoprice Tech Team, in their easy-to-understand E. Mails, helped me work through my issues. Kudos!
Thank you Charlie for the positive feedback! We appreciate it!

I ordered a Mini Select V2 3D printer and after a few days of owning it, it failed. Getting in touch with Tech Support was a chore, but once I did getting an RMA was smooth and received a shipping label with RMA within a few minutes. I shipped the defective unit back and haven't heard back from them with any information about a replacement. I've emailed them twice and have not yet received a reply back. Tried to call them and that is a joke as well.
Jason,

If your issue has yet to be resolved please reach out to me directly at escalations@monoprice.com and I would be happy to help you find a resolution.

Monoprice is good, could improve on RMA and communication. First of all, they ship quickly and have good products. I have not returned anything in years, so I was surprised when it took a phone call for an RMA (although I had sent in online requests via webpage and email). Rep was good, and took care of me.
I will still definitely order from them, just realize you need to call for an RMA if you need to return... Ciao... Curt
Thank you Curt for the review! You should be able to go online and request the RMA through your my account. Once that is done we have a 1-2 day processing time. We are always looking into improving our website and the customer's experience so I will look into this process and see what can be done.

Excellent product and service. Bit confusing website for a Canadian though. Would help if there was a Canadian site. Have purchased products on other Cdn sites and would purchase more if Monoprice had a Canadian site.
I love monoprice because of their gord trust score. They have sold me quite a lot of good products and each was just what I needed. I have not had to return any product for being faulty or for any other reason. The delivery time was just fine and I have no complaints. I trust them.
Thank you Nal for your feedback, we appreciate it!

I have been doing business with Monoprice for a number of years. The quality of their products is first rate. Their delivery time is always excellent. The few issues, I wouldn't even call them problems, have always been handled professionally, quickly and to my satisfaction. I highly recommend them.
Thank you Fred for your support and your review! We appreciate it!

I purchased a Chromebook from this company as a Christmas gift in December 2017. 5 months later, the screen stopped working. I contacted Monoprice but was told that they only have a 14 day return policy and that I would need to contact HP for the warranty. No problem. I contacted HP, but was told that warranty had expired because it started based on when Monoprice purchased it from HP. The only way I could update the warranty is to send them proof of the purchase that included the serial number. I contacted Monoprice again explaining this, but was told they don't have that information. I asked how can I get it and was answered with "I don't know". So they send you to the manufacturer for service, but can't provide the information needed to the customer. If they have no way of knowing the serial number of the product you purchased/they sent you, then how would they know you are returning the same item if you did so within 14 days?
Laura,
My apologizes for the delay in response. I know quite some time has passed since you posted this review but I am reaching out to see if we were able to come to a resolution in regards to this issue. Please email me at escalations@monoprice.com if you have not had this resolved.

I've been purchasing cables on Monoprice for quite some time (over 8 years) and they have always come out on top as prime products, and when, for some reason, the items have gone bad, Monoprice has honored their lifetime-guarantee and sent me a replacement ASAP, top-notch customer service. I would buy again anytime.
Thank you Manuel for the review and being a loyal customer for 8+ years!

Answer: I would trust them they stand behind their products
Answer: Hahaha! In my case, they just dumped my package at a neighbor's. Unfortunately, that property is vacant so I did not receive my shipment until almost two weeks later after the neighbor came to check on the property and found it.
Answer: Try calling their phone support is amazing. Their live support works well too depending on what it is.
