Customer Reviews for VEVOR Plate Compactor, 2.8 HP 78.5CC Gas Engine 5,250 VPM, 870 kg Force Vibratory Compaction Tamper with 18.7 x 11.8 inch Plate for Walkways, Patios, Asphalts, Paver Landscaping

This plate compactor is a complete pile of crap. After trying to start it on the 25 pull. It will only run for 5-6 minutes then shuts down and it takes another 35 pulls to start it for another 3-4 minutes. Someone please call me to get this figured out. I have had to rent a plate. Compactor three times now

I sent a notice to your team and have not heard anything back yet. Apparently I have to take some type of a piece off of the unit before I can use it with the lubrication and I’ve contacted your team two or three times and not had any response so at this point, I can’t really review the thing as I should.

I followed the directions for set-up exactly, started it, and let it run for a while to sort of break things in. The next time I used it for compacting, it ran for about 10 minutes, and I couldn't get it to start again.

I buy it from my home use I can't use it for a month when I try to run it, it doesn't run. I buy some gas motor from vevor before and never get this problem.

Would be a nice unit if i could actually use it. It came in the shipping crate without the upper handle to operate it and to mount the throttle.

Not sure if the oil reservoir for the vibratory plate is cracked or it wasn’t sealed properly but the entire plate is covered in oil and it’s pooling inside the bag it comes in. Don’t want to just refill it and start it and void out any shipping damage claim. Vevor support says they answer within 48hrs but all they’ve said is sorry for the delay. So I have a $400 machine sitting in my garage unable to be used…

You get what you pay for no way to check oil in the exciter and If you try to return it forget about it won't be buying another vevor product ever again cheap junk made to use one time and tro away

I ordered this a month ago and it was supposed to be delivered. It has never showed up. We have been fighting with the freight company for the last 3 weeks and still have no resolve. Needed this to put a swimming pool in and now we are almost at the end of the season and still no pool. Doo better with your shipping service because thos has been a horrible experience. Which is a shame because every other order that I have placed has been spectacular, service and product wise.

I do not know how this product works because it arrived damaged and pull cord does not retract. Unable to start unit. Customer service has been helpful. Waiting for part(over two weeks ago).

Poor instructions on how to "remove the vent sealant before use." Then was told that the "tech team" will contact me via email in two business days. How about just having the "tech team" do a proper manual? Not impressed thus far, hopefully the product is not this shoddy.
