 AI reviews summary 

Kogan receives a high volume of positive feedback for its competitive pricing, extensive product variety, and efficient delivery times. However, a significant segment of users reports severe dissatisfaction regarding unauthorised "Kogan First" membership charges and a difficult customer service experience when issues arise.

Pros
Competitive Pricing: Frequently cited as having the best value in Australia, particularly for televisions, appliances, and annual mobile plans.
Efficient Logistics: A large number of users report exceptionally fast dispatch and delivery, often receiving items within 2 to 4 days of ordering.
User-Friendly Interface: The website and mobile app are praised for being easy to navigate, with a straightforward checkout process and diverse payment options.
Mobile Plan Value: Long-term users highlight Kogan Mobile as a reliable, cost-effective alternative to major carriers, specifically praising the 365-day prepaid deals.
Cons
Unauthorised Membership Charges: A recurring and serious complaint involves users being automatically signed up for a $129 "Kogan First" annual membership without clear consent during checkout.
Difficult After-Sales Support: When products are damaged or incorrect, users frequently encounter a "nightmare" support process characterised by unhelpful AI bots and a lack of a direct phone line.
Marketplace Seller Issues: Multiple reports indicate that items sold via third-party marketplace sellers often suffer from slower shipping, poor communication, and difficult return processes compared to "Sold by Kogan" items.
Warranty & Refund Delays: Significant friction is reported in obtaining refunds or warranty repairs, with some users waiting months for resolutions or being forced to escalate to the ACCC or Fair Trading.
Verdict

Kogan is a strong choice for budget-conscious shoppers seeking fast delivery on a wide range of goods, provided the transaction is straightforward. However, consumers should remain highly vigilant during checkout to avoid unwanted membership subscriptions and be aware that resolving technical faults or shipping errors can be an arduous, automated process.

Re Kogan Mobile. My account was difficult but the Kogan Rep, a gentleman in India was terrific, he sorted it all out for me and was lovely to deal with. In fact I have been with Kogan Mobile since they started and all my family too and I find their support people all very good. Not only that but their prices are incredible and I have never had an… Read more

Process is so easy from search to payment. I always compare prices and durability of what I’m purchasing with eBay and other online sellers but nearly always come back to Kogan.com. I know if there is a problem it will be resolved quickly but have never had to return an item as quality is great. Highly recommend Kogan.com 5⭐️ all the way Show details ·  1

For a basic foodie like me, the functions are more than enough to do my pizzas and lamb roast. I was sold on the digital clock display and the overall appearance that matches the previous kitchen finish, replacing the 30 year old oven that retired recently. Installation was fun and took only a few minutes. Show details ·  1

At first when I came across the site I thought it was too good to be true and a possible hack. But I read the other reviews check if the site was legitimate or not and then preordered a Kogan brand massage chair worth $800 vs the rrp being $1k+. But sure enough I got a notification that it would be dispatched and the chair arrived fairly quick.… Read more ·  1

The chair was as described from the site, the function was very good and really helps with relaxing after a long day, I was very happy with the purchase and relived that it came and was as shown/described. Ever since I have been purchasing items from Kogan.com and Kogan-branded items, I always received the item I bought, no complications and always delivered very quickly.

Very easy to find and compare similar units, good range with clear pros, sizes and reviews easy to see. Very happy with final result as it’s perfect for what I needed, small, cheap and cheerful as well as easy to set up and learn to use. Given the drier it replaced was from the 90’s I may have outdated expectations about durability but so far very pleased. Show details ·  1

Saw this beaut deal for Kogan 50" Smart TV for under $400 and ordered, without a problem on the Kogan website. Ordering was easy and payment confirm came through almost immediately. So looking forward to receiving, unpacking, installing and using this TV. We already own a 50" Kogan television and have done so for the last 6 years or more, so… Read more ·  2

using the remote shouldn't be that difficult to use.

This is an edit to my original review above! So, I thought that using the remote would be easy...how wrong could I be? The ONE thing I wanted to do was remove was the subtitles on all free-to-air channels. I have spent hours and hours going through everything. In a nutshell the supplied remote does not have enough buttons on it to do an efficient and painless job. In the end I used my old remote (from Kogan TV) and was able to delete the subtitles. Not good enough Kogan to supply a good enough remote do the job. I have ordered a new one from another source which will do all (and more) for this new Smart TV. User be aware as even the Kogan Help Centre were not very helpful. Pics show smaller remote provided by Kogan and larger remote sourced from a third party/.

Recently I purchased a Saucony woman's runners from Kogan at a great price. Delivery was quick and product was beautifully packaged. I love Kogan and Saucony. I have 3 pairs of Saucony extra-wide as they are roomy and comfortable for my problematic feet. I will definitely shop at Kogan again and highly recommend them. I give them a 5-star rating!!! Thank you Kogan. Show details ·  1

I have been looking for a black Rangehood and didn't realise how hard it would be to find, especially one that did not need to be vented. Kogan came through, not only with the perfect replacement but the right colour and a fantastic price. I installed it today, very easy. It looks great, very happy with my purchase. Show reply

Thieves – I bought a vacuum. Then I got an email on the 8th to say they were taking $129 out of my bank on the 11th for a Kogan 1st annual membership. I did… Read more

not download the app and didn't join Kogan 1st. I replied they must not touch my money. But they just took it out of my account. From my banking app I rang them, and it was a customer mobile number. They hung up on me. I can't ring them. My friend said it happened to her. I hope kogan in future will get a proper authority to withdraw peoples money out of their bank accounts. Thank you for the return of the money and the replacement battery

 Follow-up  · No response. Even through a website negotiating for me.

 Follow-up  · Kogan replaced the battery. Thank you kogan. And the money was also eventually returned.

I bought a SmarterHome LX16 Robot Vacuum Cleaner and Mop. It is cleaning quite well but I haven't tried the mop as yet. Everything arrived well but the cleaning brush was supposed to be included and it wasn't in the box with the other spare items. I'm not having much success getting in touch with Kogan to send me the brush. Show details ·  1

 Follow-up  · The company suggested a brush to purchase but it was expensive. The vac works well and washes okay. I can't get the app to work, so just relying on the vacuum to go wherever it likes. It does quite a good job and certainly helps me to clean whilst I am recovering from health issues.

My Kogan Mobile eSIM voucher arrived super quickly, was easy to activate and has great service when I'm travelling, even in regional and remote areas. I knew what I needed to buy but wasn't sure how easy it would be to get started. I got it at a good price too, which is even more satisfying! Show reply

1: Kogan continues with their sneeky disingenuous methods to lure customers into their Kogan First subscription scheme. One would think that after numerous complaints and postings on various websites, that Kogan would desist, but NO. Obviously it's a good money spinner for Kogan, so they ignore and continue! 2: Kogan continues to list PHONE… Read more

contact number, however, historically, has proven to be FAKE and not contactable! Good luck trying to get a result to anything, if you find yourself 'looping' through their no care maze of e-mail nonsense. Kogan doesn't have 'Customer Care Staff'. They have 'AGENTS'..LOL! 3: SRP or RRP prices of course cannot be verified or confirmed, as KOGAN brand, is exclusive to Kogan. Be aware of huge exaggerated pricing on items you may be interested in. Do your research. You may be surprised or shocked at what you find! No more Kogan for me! TAKE CARE.

Ordered a pair of bamboo socks from Kogan and within days was hit with an unauthorised $129 charge for their “Kogan First” subscription that I never knowingly signed up for. There is a phone number that you can call for customer service but it’s not connected I contacted their customer service through a chat window within the app and they… Read more

promised to refund me immediately, but it didn’t come through, I contact them again through their chat box, and I was told again that they would issue me with a refund immediately & it has now been 2 weeks of correspondence with them just repeating themselves saying they will check and get back to me. Please be aware of this as it’s a scam within the Kogan company and I have a friend that it happened to as well just recently. On top of that, almost immediately after this purchase I started receiving scam/phishing emails impersonating Kogan. Feels like a huge coincidence that this started right after I handed over my details to them. Between the sneaky subscription charge, the useless customer service, and the scam emails that followed, I won’t be shopping here again and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone else. Also .. I have noticed with other 1star reviews that they will comment and ask for you to contact them to resolve the issue.. but it’s just a automated response.. Like I said their customer service may as well be non existent

Utterly bad company. No humans for help, emails ignored, never a return or so much as a thanks - they will however take your money for the most part and its a FU attitude from there. Poorly run company, not to be trusted. Show details

Ordering experience was good. Easy online process and order arrived as expected.
