Users say the tool often hits limits, misreads orders, and fails to complete purchases.

The criticism has spread across X and tech commentary, with many mocking the chatbot-based flow.

The reaction underscores skepticism that chatbots can improve routine tasks when they add friction, delays, and errors.
