“I ordered two duvet covers on May 14. The website said items were available and in stock. It is July 20 and I still have not received them. On tracking it says I was to receive on June 4th, then changed to June 26th, then to July 18. During this time I used the chat feature several times and also talked on the phone with 7 different customer service reps. Not one was able to help me. When I attempted to cancel order (as I bought a similar item from another store and received two days later) they said it was in transit. I pointed out that it was not as it showed on the website it was not. Another said it was shipping from overseas so had shipped from there but would arrive soon, another said that it was in production, another "elevated" my case and transferred me to a supervisor - who said "I am not a supervisor, he lied" She proceeded to berate me for being upset about not being able to cancel. Yet another said "it is our policy to help you cancel after 30 days and it has been more than 30 days." He said he would cancel and process a refund for me. Two weeks later I received an email from pottery barn saying that the manufacturer was in process of making the items so I could not get a refund. I just talked with someone last week who said the item would be here by Friday. It is still not here. I said I spend $340 on something and you are just keeping my money and not delivering my product, when is enough enough? I already have duvet covers on my beds and IF they ever show up I will just be returning them so let's stop the waste of my phone calls, shipping cost, etc. How long can a company keep someone's money without delivering a product they said was in stock. This is a duvet cover -- not a custom made piece of furniture. I will NEVER shop or buy from Pottery Barn Teen or ANY of their subsidiaries/partners again. I encourage everyone to think twice about purchasing from this fraudulent company and have reported them to the Better Business Bureau.”
“I’m incredibly grateful I found FRED MERCY. They are true professionals when it comes to helping victims of investment fraud. From the beginning, their team acted swiftly and provided me with clear guidance and essential resources. Their support was instrumental in helping me recover my lost funds.
What stood out most was their transparency and professionalism. They broke down the legal process in a way I could understand, and they walked me through every step. They also assisted me in gathering all the critical documentation I needed, which made a big difference.
Thanks to FRED MERCY, I was able to reclaim my hard-earned savings. While this was a difficult experience, it taught me an important lesson: always be cautious when investing online. Do thorough research and consult with trusted professionals before making any financial commitments.”

“Delivered a bed without the appropriate parts. Said they would overnight the parts, arrived a week later. Wouldn’t come to assemble the bed for another 4 days. Child slept on the floor for 2 weeks. Their movers damaged my wall. They left a disassembled bed laying all
over my garage for 2 weeks. No apologies, no compensation. Spent a huge amount of money, not worth any of it for the aggravation and hours on calls from unhelpful and rude staff. The furniture isn’t any better than another department store from experience.”
“I just called to inquire about a Purolator package from Pottery Barn Teen that was estimated to be delivered Dec. 10 and it went out of the facility Dec. 3rd. The package still has not arrived.
The customer service agent was very abrupt and incredibly rude and hung up on me. I understand Christmas is stressful, and you must have high call volume. But the was she handled the call was absolutely unacceptable.
I wanted to just clarify the dates and understanding the estimated delivery but she would not let me finish made a little displeased noise and hung up.
I was not trying to be rude at all I just wanted clarification and advise on how to navigate this and if they would have a solution for this.”
“We purchased a dresser for our daughter from pottery barn teens to match the bed we previously purchased a few months earlier. We purchased it even though it said we would receive it within 4 weeks but we still ordered it because it was the perfect match. So the bottom line is it was said that the dresser was supposed to be delivered on a particular day, but we never received the dresser even though we took off work to be home now the dresser is lost and no one can find it. I would not recommend anyone to buy from Pottery Barn and I even have an account with them.”
“They charged my card in September and I have yet to receive my merchandise. I tried to cancel the mattress portion of my order because that is the hold up from having the rest of the order delivered. They won't let me cancel the mattress! They said because the shipping process has started they are not able to cancel, YET, they have no idea when everything will be delivered. My daughter is sleeping on the floor because of this delay. I asked if they could send a different mattress and they said no. Really sad how your service has declined over the years. I used to think so highly of Pottery Barn and all of its merchandise. I will never order from here again. Additionally, they never gave me the shipping discount at checkout. By the way you won't allow me to unclick "over a month" on the survey below. I haven't even received my merchandise yet. Every call I've asked to speak with a supervisor and all they do is place you on hold for HOURS at a time. What a joke!”
“Is there a way to give minus 0 stars? Pottery Barn i think you forgot who keeps you in business. Last order from any of your sites. Overall the last 3 years have all been EPIC FAILS with you guys. Will never recommend any of your products to my clients ever again.”
“all over their website it states FREE SHIPPING OVER 99.00 with code HAPPY. I tried to place an order for 99.00 for three small winged keys. Code would not work so I called. She said code doesn't work on furniture or oversized items. OMG three small keys are considered OVERSIZED.. I about spit my coffee out. So pretty much NO ONE CAN ORDER ANYTHING and use that stupid code because what is smaller than 13 inches. PB... you're a JOKE and your customer service SUCKS TOO. now I remember why I quit shopping here years ago. Shame on me. I can't stand games, hooks, and poor customer service”
“I bought a set of 20 3D-butterflies. They were listed at $49.50. For the price I assumed they would be made of metal or even plastic. But they are made of Paper! You can buy almost the exact same thing on Temu for under $5.00. It does say in the description that it is digitally printed on paper so my fault for not reading more carefully.
These are Ridiculously overpriced”
“I would have given Pottery Barn negative starts if I could. Pottery Barn stole my money and didn't send me the furniture I had ordered!
I have been shopping at Pottery Barn for a very long time, got most of our furniture pieces from them. But until this day, I had never seen such a horrific customer (dis)service!
I ordered a sectional sofa+bumper 4 months ago, which was just made and delivered, except the sofa piece was missing! I basically only got a useless bumper part. I called them multiple times and spent hours on the phone with them. The agents were mostly nice and understood I was missing a component, but they needed approval from leadership to do something about it and their leadership were all terrible people. They gaslighted me that it was my fault and I had only ordered the bumper part! Even though it's impossible for you to just go on the website and deliberately only order a bumper!
My order confirmation and the image in it all indicated I had ordered the entire sectional, yet they didn't accept any returns because they said it was "made to order", any partial refunds for the missing piece, or even offering to send me the sofa part! In fact I couldn't even order the sofa part even if I wanted to (re)pay myself because they don't have the matching fabric anymore.
Anyways I was almost convinced I messed up in ordering this thing until I went to the store today to order a whole new sectional and saw that the designer is ordering the same exact thing for me! Even the price point indicated what I had paid for was the entire sectional and not just the bumper part! The designer of course agreed and called customer service yet again, but of course she kept repeating, like a robot, the same meaningless sentence that "what you purchased is what you received" without bothering to think about why the price I paid for that bumper (on sale) was much higher than the price I was seeing for the same bumper on the designer's screen and close to the price of the entire bumper+sofa on that damn screen! I couldn't do anything of course, except to get out and make sure I never shop at Pottery Barn again.
So long story short, they stole my money because the 2000$ I had paid was supposed to be for a sectional not just this useless bumper piece. And worse than that, they are very dishonest and don't even accept it was their fault, let a lone accepting a return or partial refund or any sort of trying to fix their mess up.”
“I can hardly begin to express my disgust with this order. It has been promised. It has been delayed. It has been in stock. It has been out of stock. It has been on its way. It has been in a warehouse. It is not in a warehouse. It has been promised to arrive almost every day since December 4th. Most days they can't tell me where it. I can call twice in 1 day and be told one time it's out for delivery and another time it's in a warehouse in Kansas. I now have to face the fact that my grandson will not have a present to open on Christmas Eve.
I will never order from this company again.”
“Worst customer service I have ever had. They didn’t even bother to respond to emails only answered a phone call. Not able to
Answer questions my order is taking a month to arrive here. Will never shop here again.”
“Terrible customer service! I just purchased Star Trek PJs that were too small. There was nothing on the site or order confirmation that indicated it was a final sale or I would not have purchased it. They refused to accept a return.”
“I received a pottery barn teen backpack for my daughter. Within one week of school, the bottom seem unraveled and there was a large hole in the bottom. My daughter had a folder in here backpack and that is all. When I called to have a new one sent . They said it was no longer available . They offered a 10 percent of what I paid in a gift card to their store. I paid $60 for the back pack and had to go to get it sewn to fix their error . My daughter who was super excited for her backpack was devastated that they didn’t have a new one to send . Which happens, but potterbarn should have offered to pay to have it fixed or reimbursed for a defective item. They offered no solution but to give a gift card for their store. Horrible customer service.”
“I placed an order for a new bed, the Avalon for my daughter. The estimated delivery date was 10 days. Upon delivery within the 10 day window, the delivery company brought only the bed slats but not the headboard. The delivery company called Pottery Barn and advised that the headboard would be delivered the following week. I allowed them to leave the multiple large boxes of bedding parts in my daughter's room till the delivery of the headboard the following week. Long story short, the head board delivery never arrived! I have been waiting since July 16th, today is Sept 14th and no headboard! The delivery had been postponed at least 5 times! They cannot even tell me with any certainty when it will arrive. At this point, I called them and asked them to pick up the huge boxes with bed parts they left in my home, which take up so much needed space. They weren't even apologetic. Seriously, they didn't even care! I expected so much more from a company that claims to sell top notch furnishings. I will not purchase any of their products going forward.”
“I purchased the PB Teen Gear-Up Navy Solid Recycled Backpack (Item# 2883610) for my HS son last year, 8/2022. His previous PB kids backpack had lasted 6+ years and in fact we still have it! However, the quality of the new backpack is not the same as the older models or it is possible that the PB Teen backpacks are just not as well made as the PB kids backpacks. The canvas material on the shoulder strap has begun to unravel. I noticed this at the end of the school year when the backpack was less than a year old. (I have pictures, but this site is not allowing me to upload them.) I purchased the backpack last year with no discounts or coupons confident in my purchase based on my previous experience with PB backpacks. My two daughters also have PB kids backpacks that have lasted multiple years. I wrote PB today to request a new backpack due to the defect on the canvas fabric on the shoulder strap. They responded quickly in the Live Chat (less than 15 min). I was informed that the best they could do was provide a 15% discount based on how long ago the order was placed. I have decided at this point it will be less expensive to take the backpack to a tailor for repair. I will hang on to my daughters older PB kids backpacks for as long as we can, but will look for a new manufacturer for their next backpack, when needed. It’s disappointing that the quality of this product has declined. They did have a great product and I have previously highly recommended them and even sent them as gifts! It is unfortunate that I can no longer do this.”
“Buyer Beware of PB Teen Customer Service. They will not replace damaged goods once they offer you $5.00 off. I received a damaged lunchbox and all they offered to do was offer a return of $5.00. Not knowing or thinking about these packages being insured I did not object. Once I called Customer Service back to question this, they said there was nothing they could do that the order was finalized by the $5.00 amount. So, I have to pay for a permanently damaged item full price with no offer of replacement. This is unethical behavior on the part of Pottery Barn Teen towards their customers.”
“Likewise delayed delivery for a large recent order. Delivery being stretched more than 3 times over, with customer service quoting supply chain issues. Delivery tracking being disabled on the product confirmation. However orders for the same items being accepted online with almost current date - happening week upon week. Wondering if the company is engaging in collecting customer orders and cash without there being a realistic ability to deliver?”
