Ingco tools
Based on recent customer reviews, Ingco tools is drawing significant criticism from South African buyers despite initial appeal around affordability. Customers consistently mention attractive pricing and decent first impressions, but a recurring theme is poor product durability, with drills, batteries, chucks, and pumps reportedly failing within months. Reviewers frequently raise concerns about after sales service, slow email responses, difficulty sourcing spare parts and replacement blades, and unsatisfactory repair workmanship. Several shoppers express regret, suggesting the brand offers short term value but struggles to support buyers beyond the initial purchase.

I purchased a lithium-ion impact driver CIRLI2028 almost a year ago, and it performed flawlessly the first time I used it. However, when I attempted to use it again, I was unable to remove the previously installed driver bit from the hex shank and also experienced difficulty inserting other driver bits. I am using the correct 1/4" bits, and this should be a straightforward replacement process. Unfortunately, I no longer have the purchase receipt. Based on this experience, I would not recommend purchasing Ingco power tools.

After sales service is non existent in South Africa. I enjoy my backpack spray a lot, but I am in need of a new nozzle. Ingco took a month to respond to my email, gave me a list of places in free state that could help but none of them are interested in trying to help as buying a spare part I guess is work and no profit to them.

I have numerous Ingco Cordless Products an am very happy with them. However, I have a one of their Cordless Mowers and it’s impossible to get a replacement blade. None of the dealers stock it and I get no meaningful response from Ingco South Africa despite been in communication with them.

Bought a brushless set (drill & grider) from Legacy in Pretoria. Within 3 months they had to change the 4 ah battery 5 month the repaired the 115 mm grinder. Everytime I had to wait 15 to 20 works day. I hardly used these tools and when I do it for my buisness and if they do not work 3 months after I bought them its a bit frustrating. They have somesort of warrenty which is ok but not worth the paper its printed on. Cherry on top is the Salesmen said its was on par with De Walt and comes from the same factory but when I took the items back I was told "just remember we are just agents of this product" Please stay away from this product.
