Complaint Review: EcoQuest

EcoQuest Using air machines to clean air for sick people that create ozone and may kill them sooner! Greenville Tennessee

a man came to my church who claimed he ran this company called Ecoquest. He claimed that it was a Christ based company. He convinced many of us to sign up as dealers and to buy vitamins. Some of us who had older people at home who were sick with breathing disorders ordered these air purifier machines because they were suppose to clean the air.

This man said that the machines had an EPA certification on them and that they would definitely make a cleaner environment for our people at home to live in. I was one who bought one of these air machines.

Now I hear the reports about how the EPA number on the machine doesn't mean anything and that the machines are really giving off ozone. My mother has been having terrible breathing trouble since we started that machine and I told her today to shut it off. I am going to send it back to the company and I better get my money back too. What kind of a company would do this to people. Especially one who is suppose to be working in the name of God.

My husband had one of the mobile cleaners in his truck. I really did not like the smell but agreed to try it in the house. We were told to try it out in the bedroom. I used the machine exactly as instructed. I could not stand the odor and developed some tightness in my chest. The rep said keep using it, "you'll get used too it." I didn't want to get used to it. I turned it off and started doing more research. Here's what I found: http://www.epa.gov/iaq/pubs/ozonegen.html

While it doesn't name Ecoquest, specifically, Ecoquest is an ozone generator and works as described in this report. I would never allow one in my house. My friends have had one for years but recently had their first child. I forwarded the report to them and they are no longer using the unit.

Ecoquest is fine

I have read a lot of the postings about Ecoquest and I am somewhat surprised by what I have been reading.

First let me say that I am an independent dear and have been for 2 years. I purchased a success pack and sold all of those units and have not done a lot since. However, that is of my own doing. I hope everyone looks at this post objectivly and puts some thought in to what I am saying. To the people that say that they were promised a lot of money or anything else, I will say this. You get out of any business what you put in to it. The person that promised you anything was wrong becuaes of the simple fact that the person that promised you does not know your work ethic and what you are willing to do.

Second, the people that had bad experiences with their upline need to look at the facts, and they are these. There are good and bad in everything. If you go to a restaurant in your town and it was dirty, the food was terrible, and the restaurant was dirty, does that mean that you will never go to it again, or go to the same restaurant if you are out of town? Of couse not. Also, there is no reason to bash people that did not succeed. Every one of us knows someone who went to college with us that either did not graduate, or decided to swith majors or something happend that caused them not to finish. We all know people on our jobs that are not successful, or are just lazy and do just enough to get by. Ecoquest is a real business that has several options for people that choose to take advantage of the opportunity. It is not for everyone. It has been my experience in this business that I have received everything my upline said I would. I did not have any issues with Best Finance or anyone else.

In closing, i would like to say this to the people that had a bad experience. Do not judge the entire company by what you experinced. You are influencing people, either good or bad by your comments. It is just like every thing else you do in life. If you have a bad experience you tend to streatch it out of proportion, and not say as much about the goodthat happens. To the person that said their upline kept pushing the success pack, that is too bad. There is a program called Summit Climbers that shows you how to market one unit a month and show someone else how to do the same thing and become very successful.

As far as the product itself, I love my unit. I have bad allergies and it has help in a great way. The reason it does is because i followed the correct set up proceedures. If it is not set up properly, it will not do the job it was supposed to do. Just like if you are baking a cake and put it in the oven at 150 degrees it will not dook and it you put it in at 500 it will burn.

One last thought. As far as it being MLM, it is like any sales organization. When you buy a car, the sales person gets paid, the sales manager gets a cut and right on up the line. The same with your car, life or any other kind of insurance you have. The sales person, then the manager, and so on up the line gets a cut. Look at any business in the world, they are successful by building networks or franchises. Why do people like Warren Buffet, Donald Trump and other millionares say that MLM is the best way for ordinary people to create wealth? What do they know that we don't. If Ecoquest is not for you, look for another company that is more to your liking and go for it. It is the best opportunity in the world.

You are uneducated

I am an independant business owner through EcoQuest and no one that i have ever dealt with has ever had a problem with one of my machines. Our machines have helped people breathe better and have gotten rid of bacteria and mold our machines are proven to kill 99.999% of mold and bacteria.

You are uneducated about the machine that you have purchased. Before you buy anything you need to research the product and ask questions. Would you go out and buy a car without test driving it first and asking the important questions i dont think so. SO why in the world would you put a machine in your house that you didnt research first.

If our machines are so bad can you tell me why NASA stands behind us and why our company recieved Tokens of appreciation from the Department of Defense. If our machines are so bad then why did the U.S. use them right after the september 11th attacks in the surrounding schools and other places such as fire houses and hospitals to clear the air and make it safe to breath again? Why has that same machine that you are claiming makes people sicker shown to kill MRSA Staph (the superbug). Why dont you look up the peer reviewed studies of Kansas State University that are based on our products. Research before you buy and complain.
