“I was really excited about this product and the information on the website made it easy to put in the order and validate that my measurements were correct. But...that's about where the excitement ended. After the order was placed on May 16th, I received no feedback from anyone at the company which is not acceptable since their disclaimers says "If any changes are required we need to know ASAP. (No more than 1 work day)." Well, I put in my notes to "please contact me to ensure my measurements are correct." On May 20th, at 0932, I called and left a message to call back about the order. No one called and so I called again at 1530 and finally reached a sales rep. The sales rep was unable to locate my order and asked me to email it to someone else at the company and subsequently I would get a call back by COB. Well, that never happened and so I had to call again today. When I finally got someone I was told they found the order it had not been processed. Additionally, it would take 3 weeks to a month before this would ship. Had this been prominently advertised on their website I would have gone elsewhere. But, since no obvious disclaimer is given at any point in the process regarding shipping delays related to COVID I've now wasted a week for something I need by the 29th. Since their website claims orders will be shipped within 5-7 business days or 7-10 business days (Depending on cost) I had no issues placing the order. Not okay to operate this way and also not okay to make it right.”

Hello, We apologize for the delays and are doing our best to fill your orders as quickly as possible. Some orders are shipping on schedule but there are a few that are delayed for various reasons surrounding Covid-19. Also, Our shippers like Fedex and UPS shipping time is about double. This piece is beyond our control. Please be assured that we value each and every order and this will be made and shipped as early as possible. Once again, we do apologize for the delay on your order. We appreciate your patience and will certainly try to do better in the future.

“Spent 2300.00 on heated blankets that said "thaw up to 8ft" of frozen ground. These didnt even thaw ice and snow 4 inches in a 28 hr. period. Completely dissatisfied. RIP off.”

“After recently purchasing 4 custom sized covers for our new deck furniture from Alco, I have two observations. First, the covers took significantly longer to be delivered than indicated on the website when ordering. Perhaps this is due to them being shipped from India leading me to assume they were manufactured offshore. More seriously, during recent rains here in San Francisco all four covers leaked. Two chairs and a sofa all had water on their cushions and the table had as much water under the cover surface as was on top, which was a lot. I have communicated with Alco about the waterproof failure of all my covers and will revise my review if I receive a satisfactory and timely solution. Pending that, based on my experience of a 100% failure rate, proceed with caution.”

Hi Chuck, You are absolutely correct in being unhappy with your cover leaking. These are heavy duty covers that should not leak. With that being said, we do have issues from time to time for different reasons and do warranty against this type of failure. Please reach out to me directly and I will personally investigate this and find a solution that you are satisfied with. @alcocovers.com

“Sadly, I’ve had the same experience as Peter James only I’ve been waiting since September 19!!! Emailed them... no response... called them 15 times always getting a woman’s voicemail. Left a message... still no response. They sure were quick to take my money yet I have no idea when or IF I’ll ever get this custom cover”

His email is oliver@alcocovers.com. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

“Ordered a cover that was promised within 2 weeks. Called numerous times after the two weeks and given different excuses each time about why it hadn't shipped yet. after 3 1/2 weeks they said it was in production and they didn't have an estimate on when it would ship. Cancelled the order.”

Hi George, I apologize for the delay on your order. We did unfortunately have our shipper lose a few hundred orders which caused a backlog of communication issues and delays on our end. We appreciate your input and promise to do better next time Please feel free to contact me personally if you still have unresolved issues. matt@alcocovers.com

“The service from this company was terrible. My order showed up a month late and incorrect. When attempting to get them to fix it, they refused. Go elsewhere - this company is horrible.”

“ZERO STARS DO NOT ORDER. I would give you zero stars but that's not an option. Terrible service. Unresponsive. Order over a month late, only partial order received without any resolution. Don't waste your time. I regret trying to use a custom services as I thought it would be better. Don't do it. There is nothing custom about this service except the it's unique in that it's so poor. Only wish I had read the other review as this is consistently terrible with this company.”

“I ordered a cover for my outdoor daybed on March 6. After calling and emailing I finally received a cover a month later that was the wrong color and the wrong size. Still waiting to hear when my new cover will be shipped. Have had to follow up with an 2 emails and a phone call and I still haven’t gotten a response. Over 2 months out now. Worst customer service ever.”

“Customer service is horrible, if you can get anyone. After 3 weeks of no communication I reached out for status on my order and was told my order shipped and was provided tracking numbers. The tracking numbers show labels were printed a week ago, but my order was never shipped. It's a week later after they "shipped" and I still can't get a straight answer, for the last 3 days I've been told just to wait longer or they are checking with UPS. No need, UPS clearly says they never got the package. Seems all the people providing customer service are virtual employees with no ability to actually solve a problem. I left a voice mail, no return call. Called again the next day selected sales option was told I would get a email back that day, no email. Chat.. Useless offered no info and told me to basically just keep waiting.”
