“Aleko is a company that truly cares about its customers. I decided to ordered directly from Aleko because they are the manufacture, an logically would care more than third party distributors. I was correct! Aleko ended up paying for shipping that was almost as much as the cost of the product, to rectify a delivery issue. A company like Aleko is a breath of fresh air. Thanks Bill Vavro Satisfied Customer”

Hi Bill, I apologize for your frustration. I see you placed an order last Wednesday afternoon, then emailed us to make sure we could ship to a different address. I apologize for the delay in getting back to you and now see you need your item for an event. I'm terribly sorry for this. We are working very hard to improve our customer service by hiring and training new agents. I'll have my Customer Service Supervisor reach out to you immediately.

“ZERO COMMUNICATION since order. I have $2.5k that has been taken from my account and zero update as to when the order will be ready to pick up. It's been 5.5 weeks. I was told it would take 4. I've called 7 times left voice mails with no return calls. I've emailed via the web form and their direct email address with no responses. If I can spend 2.5k and get no customer service, what do you think that means for you? I'd steer clear. My experiences has been very bad so far.”

“It took a couple of days to get a call back, but when I did, they took good care of me. I was really hoping to have the bounce house before my daughter's birthday, but they're in the same situation every other store is. Low inventory and delayed shipping. Same story as every other online retailer. At least I know they care.”

Wow! I'm so glad we were able to take good care of you! Thank you for sharing your experience for others to know. Please reach out to us if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you, ALEKO

“no correspondence at all been trying for two weeks to find out status of my order. sign in and it says i have no orders. it sure didn't take long to take the money out of my account. very very hard to do any business after the order is placed. very poor web site.”

Helpful Report

Thanks for reaching out, Mr. Christianson. We actually emailed you two days after your order was placed advising the items are on back order. At that time, we asked if you would like to continue to wait for the items or cancel your order and receive a full refund. I'm sorry you missed that communication. I'll follow up with a phone call later today.

It was a pleasure to speak with you, Mr. Christianson. I'm glad we were able to connect and answer your question. As discussed, your product is on back order and will be shipped within 48 hours of entry to our warehouse. Thank you again for your understanding and support.

“This is a follow up to my previous review just showing you the chat sessions I had showing that Aleko lied to the company I was trying to buy this from.”

Helpful Report

“This is a very dishonest company. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THEM. I was told upon my purchase, and again during a follow up conversation that my item would ship on 6/30 so I'd have it in plenty of time for my son's birthday party on 7/18. Then when 6/30 comes and goes I followed up again and I was again lied to and told I got a "communication" "yesterday" that the item was not in fact available for delivery and would not be in stock until October! I never got the "communication" they claimed they sent and I am furious that I was told the item was in their inventory and was not actually there. The company I purchased from was mybouncehouseforsale.com they are just as dishonest and I'm warning you not to purchase from them either. The company and the manufacturer were both blaming the issue on each other and neither would take responsibility. The company said they were told multiple times from Aleko that they had plenty of inventory to fulfill all their orders and that when the time came to ship them they were told at the very last minute from Aleko that there were none available. The also said they attempted to get in contact with Aleko every day with no response and then told them it was because of their new phone system being buggy. Just tons of excuses and lies.”

“We were very pleased with the swing set we ordered. It took a while to get but we’ll worth the wait! Two thumbs up!!!”

Helpful Report

Hi Sandra, thank you for your review. I'm glad you are happy with your swing set. Yes, due to the global pandemic, many of our items have been on back-order but we're doing our best to expedite shipping when possible. Have a wonderful day!

“I ordered some patio furniture. I understood it would take a while to receive but the price and quality made it worth the wait. Tashiana was friendly and helpful.”

Helpful Report

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts about your recent purchase. I'm glad you like the furniture and hope it brings you years of enjoyment. Thanks for understanding about the shipping delay. We are finally beginning to receive more products that were previously on back-order and getting things out as soon as possible. Have a great day!

“Charged credit card. Withdrew money. Claimed the never received payment. Must avoid! Only after a dozen emails, multiple phone calls, reaching out on social media, have they finally replied and said they issued a refund. Be prepared to do the same.”

Hello Miwa. ALEKO takes fraud very seriously. I'll forward your concern directly to our Customer Service Supervisor for investigation. Please expect a call from her by the end of business today.

“I am so disgusted and disappointed with this company!!! I ordered two awning fabrics on May 17/2020, and I have not received them!! NO HELP from Aleko about my order - I have sent many emails, left a dozen voice messages (for both sales and tech), and NO ONE HAS EVER REPLIED!! Calling is a waste of time - the call is answered, and immediately switched to the "Thanks for calling, and leave us a voice mail" message. No help online - my account page says "order shipped" - FedEx says they never received the shipment from Aleko... Seems they are HAPPY TO TAKE MY MONEY, but NEVER SUPPLY THE PRODUCTS I PAID FOR!! I am so done with all this - if no one at Aleko can be bothered to call me back, or answer any one of my many emails about my order, then I'm contacting my credit card company to report this and begin action!”

Please do not hesitate to reply to that email with any questions or concerns. We appreciate your understanding. ALEKO

“I purchased a boat cover from Aleko which didn’t fit my boat despite being advertised as suitable. Customer service ignored me and then only responded when I left a bad review here, offering to “do anything they could” Reality was different. Took weeks to respond and then declared that I was outside the 30 day warranty period. Awful company DO NOT deal with them. I’m over $200 out of pocket.”

Hi Mark, please accept my sincere apology for your experience. Due to Covid-19, we were shut down for weeks as many of our suppliers were. This created an enormous backlog. We have reopened with less staff due to restrictions and are dedicated to responding to all inquiries and filling every order. I would like the opportunity to make this right by having our Customer Service Supervisor reach out to you. Please expect an email by the end of business tomorrow.

“Unable to get call backs from customer service for several days despite sending emails. Either they say they will call back and don't or they do not answer the emails. I have a simple part that I need replaced since it was broken but it is impossible to get a response from anyone.”

Good afternoon, I apologize for your frustration. We implemented a new phone system last week and have had enormous technical difficulties. We also had to make staffing changes to be compliant with Washington mandates, due to COVID-19. Please know our team is working through each voicemail and email. We will get back to you as soon as we can.

“Top cover lasted about 6 mos in the California summer.. Then ripped everywhere... They replaced the entire canopy which was awesome and great for the company to do..BUT !!!!!... The covers don't last.... Will try to find a replacement cover that will last throughout the heat of the day.... The frame has held up just fine.. But needs to be anchored down.. I used 12 x 1/2 galv, lag screws and screwed them into the ground in the holes provided...”

Hello, thank you for the feedback. We try to strike a balance between quality and value and are constantly looking for ways to offer both. We happily replace products still under a one-year warranty. Please email us at hello@alekoproducts.com if your product was purchased within that time frame.

“The canopy, made of cheap material, did not even last a year! Began completely disintegrating. When I contacted Aleko to ask about purchasing a replacement canopy, I got an email asking for some pictures, and then no response.”

Helpful Report

Hi Chris, I apologize for your frustration. We ask for pictures to determine if the damage might be covered under our warranty guidelines. We are experiencing a very high call volume and in order to be compliant with Washington mandates, have had to reduce staff in the office. I encourage you to email us at hello@alekoproducts.com for resolution.

“Tried to call the company 3 times, was put on hold each time and in position 5 got all the way to position 1 and then the phone hangs up on you. 3 times it has happened The make you waste your time on hold, and then hang up on you. This is very poor customer service”

“Tech support is so hard to get in contact with. I prefer email/chat since verbal communication can be twisted. I purchased 3 electric cables just to get to the right one for a dual swing gate. As far as the cable return, it took 1 day for Aleko to confirm they got my email with the return tracking number, now it's been 18 days and nobody responded about my refund.”

“Love the product. Ordered the 9x9 grape trellis from Home depot. Box was delivered in perfect condition, was not open, no holes, but was missing one of the rolling pins to keep the tarp up. Have reached out to Aleko and have had no response. The missing piece is a problem with packaging and is not home depots responsibility to correct.”

Helpful Report

Hello Steve, I'm glad to hear you were happy with your trellis and I apologize you were missing a rolling pin. We recently installed a new phone system and have had unexpected technical difficulties. It is taking us a few days to get through the backlog. I will have an agent follow up with you ASAP. Thanks for letting us know about your issue.

“BUYER BEWARE! BUYER BEWARE! Absolutely the worst customer service! I ordered a motorized awning it arrived with several parts missing and some parts damaged. I contacted customer service and they told me to keep the damaged unit and they would ship a new awning as soon as possible. After a couple weeks I contacted them again and was told the unit had not been shipped because it was on back order and would be shipped within 10 business days. I waited another 2 weeks and contacted them again. This time I was told it was still on back so I told them I wanted a refund. The CS agent named Ahmad told me I needed to ship the old awning back if I wanted a refund (they originally told me to keep the damaged unit). I have tried to call them again on several occasions but wind up having to leave a voice mail and I have still not received a return call.”

Hi Greg, I'm sorry you had a poor experience. I'm sure you can appreciate that we are at the mercy of the shipping and delivery companies and their handling. However, we ARE working to improve our packaging to avoid damage during shipping which can cause parts to go missing. Either way, I apologize you have had a poor experience. We are experiencing a very high call volume but I assure you, we WILL make this right for you. Please expect to hear from us in the next couple of days.
