Subject: Replacement of defective juicer.
Dear Sir,
I purchased a juicer mixer grinder on 26th May20, xxx from
your store. The receipt number is 1057 and the product model number
is M 4589. It has a warranty for 2yrs.The product is not working
properly. The grinder blades are blunt and while running the mixer, the
machine becomes very hot in a few seconds.
So, I request you to kindly look into the matter and replace the
defective juicer at the earliest. I have enclosed the copy of the receipt.
Regards
