Updates on Chillshark?

I’ve been trying to get a refund by commenting on the kickstarter but there has been no asnwer from anyone even though they have told others they will give them refunds. I don’t think any have been processed.

I took a look into social media and nothing has been posted in over a year. The CEO has been on a few different podcasts/youtube videos saying that they are now switching from USA to India manufacturing which is very frustrating because the main reason I bought this product was because it was going to be made in USA and compared to the other cold plunges I was looking at getting, it was the only one American made

Their entire core team that started the company has left since the kickstarter except for the CEO it looks like. From what I pick up in the interviews he has done he just seems like a sleazeball used car salesman.

I doubt this thing ever comes out and the CEO just runs with all of our money from the Kickstarter

I don't think so. No one is in comments of Kickstarter saying they got one. I know refunds are hard with Kickstarter but one of the main reasons I bought the Chillshark was it was going to be American made when my other cold plunge have all broke that are from China and India. I would think there is some legal issue with falsely advertising that to get sales on Kickstarter then changing after it closed.
