Purchased an Alexa Studio from Best Buy last June, it worked fantastic until it bit the dust this August. I returned to the store with the product in-hand for a replacement, after-all, it was purchased just 2 months ago. I was approached by a two clerks in a row who said there was nothing that could be done, but to take the product back to the studio department. One of 4 guys who were standing around said "there is only a manufacturer's warranty" and I would have to deal with Amazon. "Amazon!", I said. "I purchased the product here." "Yes, but we don't cover it past two weeks, so you have to deal with Amazon now", the clerk exclaimed. So now I have to contact Amazon, a product distributor, in an attempt to get a replacement for a product I purchased from Best Buy just two months ago!
Best Buy is closing stores everywhere, and this is one of the reasons why--treating customers like dirt. Let's hope they continue the downward trend. Meanwhile, buy from Amazon, they back their products. You have been warned!

Hi Michael,
Thanks for sharing this review with us here. I can understand your frustration regarding your product having issues after only owning it for two months. When outside of the return period, and if the product is not covered by a Geek Squad or Best Buy protection plan, it is correct that you would need to go through the manufacturer for support, as it is covered by their warranty. If you'd like to share any additional feedback with us, or need any other assistance, please feel free to reach out to us on one of our social media channels so our team can assist.

I will never buy anything from this store again. I bought something that said a scheduled pick up and they never emailed me or contact me and I went into the store to get the pick up and they said that just because it said it would be ready for pick up on a certain date didn’t mean that it would be ready for that date. I said I literally bought it so I could pick it up on this specific date and they said sorry we wish we could change things, but that’s not how it works. You can’t pick it up until we say you can pick it up which could be today tomorrow or in one week. I will literally never buy anything from Best Buy ever again.

Hello,
Thank you for the review. I understand your experience at Best Buy may not have been a reflection of the expectations we have in place. I would feel disappointed if I was expecting to pick up an item on a certain date and it wasn't available.
