Counterfeit products: A problem affecting Eurovox products.

Eurovox, like many other companies with well-known brand names, is the victim of product copying by third parties. The Eurovox brand name is often used without permission on counterfeit products and packaging.

Counterfeit products, which are in some cases practically identical to genuine Eurovox products, are generally of poor quality and performance. The products are often on offer at “unbeatable” prices, and are presented to consumers as bargains. But, in reality, a counterfeit product is far from being a bargain.

Although there are various sorts of counterfeit products, those counterfeit products are mainly offered for sale through internet auction sites.

These counterfeit products normally have the “EUROVOX” logo on them and it can be hard to tell at first glance whether they are genuine or counterfeit. However, in many cases those counterfeit products are of inferior quality or simply do not work.

Purchasing counterfeit products is not worth it! The origin, quality and reliability of all counterfeit products are uncertain.

Because the format and technology used in counterfeit products differs from that used in manufacturing genuine Eurovox products, the use of counterfeit products can damage your other electrical products, If another product is damaged through your use of a counterfeit product, its guarantee is unlikely to cover the damage and your consumer rights may be invalidated.

In the case of certain products such as power supplies the use of a counterfeit product that does not comply with standards currently in force can present a real danger for your safety (risks of overheating and fire).


The Eurovox MaxV 2008 was discontinued in June 2008. Please be aware of counterfeit versions still on offer.
