Review for Leaf Water Systems
Review for Leaf Water Systems - 1 Star My experience with Leaf Water Systems has gone from disappointing to infuriating. Their deceptive practices and exploitative business model are absolutely unacceptable: 1. Extortionate maintenance costs: They're charging an outrageous $325 per year just to replace a UV light bulb, under the guise of an agreement to "clean the system for best performance." This 10-year contract feels more like extortion than maintenance. 2. Hidden long-term commitment: This absurd service agreement was buried in the contract and never properly explained during installation. I feel blindsided by this expensive, decade-long obligation. 3. Deceptive pricing tactics: When I tried to purchase the UV light directly, their representative claimed I could only get it through a service call. Even worse, they had the audacity to say I could "purchase" the light for the same cost as a service call - $325 for a simple light bulb! This level of deception is appalling. 4. No DIY option: They flatly refused to let me replace the UV light myself, citing the predatory service agreement. 5. Proprietary parts trap: The UV light has a unique part number, making it impossible to find affordable alternatives. This feels like a deliberate tactic to keep customers dependent on their overpriced services. 6. Inflexible and dismissive customer service: When I voiced my concerns about the excessive costs and misleading agreement, they were completely unwilling to work with me or find any reasonable solution. Their lack of empathy and flexibility left me feeling completely disregarded as a customer. While the water softener itself works, it's not worth the nightmare of dealing with Leaf Water Systems' greedy tactics and poor customer service. I strongly urge potential customers to avoid this company at all costs. Their entire business model seems designed to trap consumers in expensive, long-term contracts with no way out. Save yourself the frustration, money, and headache - look elsewhere for your water treatment needs. This company's practices border on predatory, and they should be ashamed of how they treat their customers.
