“It is the second time that I purchased something on Wayfair with a great discount and they do not honor it. I would suggest you stay far away from this crooked company. The first time, my item was canceled, and they said it was wrongly advertised on their webpage. This time, I was sent part of the product but not all. When I called, the first time they said they were sorry, and that the rest would be sent once I contacted the manufacturer. The second time I called, they said it was wrongly advertised on their webpage and that I had received only what I paid for and that because I had had such a great deal they were sending me only part of the product. Why would I want to buy only part of a Murphy bed!??!? Would it make any sense to any human to order the wooden box and no bed mechanism?! Of course not. After hours of research and calling they said the only thing they could do would be refund me after I repackage and send what I received back but they couldn’t do anything else. What a great way Way”fair” to make cash flow off of people and then tell them to send back the stuff for a refund! Of course, they don’t care about the hours lost and their customer service is terrible! The bottom line, the webpage lies, and its people do too. NOT A TRUSTWORTHY COMPANY!”

“Placed my order and was given a delivery date. Received updates from EVRI prior to the delivery then on the delivery day all communication stopped. Cutting a very very long story and countless phone calls and emails, they had lost my item but won’t refund me until they have completed their investigations which so far have taken a week. So now I am without my delivery and my money ! I would give zero stars if there was the option, I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY !”

“I finally found the right bunk beds for my kids‘ room and was so excited to purchase them. The next day I received an email saying, “Your cancellation was successful!” The email stated they cancelled my order because of a “processing issue”. I called to find out why, and apparently the seller mistakenly priced the item too low, and that they have the right to change the price without notice. I was offered a 10% discount on my next order as compensation, but as the new price for the bed nearly tripled, I did not feel this was reasonable. I am frustrated that even after paying for an item they can just cancel my order without my consent.”

“One of the pathetic and customer unfriendly return policy. Even if I have not opened or used an item I have to $150 from my pocket just for shipping. Even requested their supervisor, she was rude and intolerant to even hear our request. Being single earning women in family $150 is huge money. Will never ever but from PATHETIC WAYFAIR”

“We have ordered two different bookcases from Wayfair. Both items were listed in stock. Both items were delayed, yet we were only notified of the delays each time the very day the bookcase was to arrive at our doorstep. Very little information was given on their website. Phone calls to customer service also gave similarly vague details. It was only after we escalated an issue to a supervisor that we found out that the first bookcase had supplier issues and wasn't even being made. Why were we not notified of this? After we cancelled this order, we were given a 10% coupon that didn't arrive. I had to call customer service again to make sure they sent it out (apparently it was checked to be sent out, but the supervisor never actually hit the "send" button). When we ordered the second bookcase, again listed in stock, we noticed that our first bookcase we wanted was somehow conveniently listed as out-of-stock on their website--only after we had our issues of multiple delays. The day our second bookcase was to arrive, we get an email that the item was delayed. Again, vague details, and I had to call customer service who confirmed that this was indeed another supply chain issue. The artificial delay of needing to wait for 6 more weeks was actually placed by Wayfair, not the supplier. In fact, if I didn't call, the likelihood that in 6 weeks time I would get another email from Wayfair saying the item was delayed was quite high. The worst part of this is the supplier for the second bookcase is actually the same supplier as the first bookcase we purchased, which begs the question why didn't Wayfair flag all products from this supplier as backordered or out-of-stock when this issue with this supplier was escalated to their investigative departments? From a customer's end, I shouldn't have been able to purchase that second bookcase and then wait 2 weeks for the same poor result. Don't buy from Wayfair. Unreliable and poor customer resolutions.”

“I can't list every reason to Avoid Wayfair. That would take me too long to explain. Broken down: The Customer Service person lied to me because my Phone would not access discount. Then I was sent the smaller drying rack. I paid for same model large drying rack. Sent it back. Then they sent me the same smaller/less expensive rack again. I gave up. Kept it. Have credit for the smaller one. Bought a bed frame. 10pm Sunda 5 min. later canceled it. Then at 5Am PST called Wayfair to speak to someone: old story again: ''our Warehouse is not in customer service building'. No guarantee it won't be shipped. At 11am sent me email. Sorry can't cancel. Then when I tried to cancel order (because request disappeared) was given statement: We can keep item as it hasn't shipped and give you 28.00 credit. So loose my 25.00 credit and 132.00 bed purchase for 28.00 Wayfair credit? Really?”

“Wayfair emblazened the product page with "£15.00 off first order" - nothing else, no small print. Then we were prompted to enter an email address and received a 'Welcome back' message. What? I may have looked at something before but never bought from Wayfair. So I progressed and guess what? All trace of the '£15 off first order' offer disappeared. Annoyed I called Customer Service who (eventually) suggested it was probably because the system had assumed a previous enquiry meant this was not a 'first order' (!!!) But in any case the £15 off only applied to orders over £150. Bad form Wayfair - this is deliberately misleading. Its dishonest.”

“Combination of incompetency and appaling treating of customers. I've ordered 2 beds. First bed came with one extra box (supposedly from another bed). Wayfair collected it later, so it was not a big issue (although I now think this might been have a headache for another customer) The second bed came with one box missing. Delivery didn't bother to ring the door or count the boxes which are were clearly marked as number 2 and number 3. Wrote to support - they are looking into it, resolution date unclear, but no earlier than next week. I've asked to cancel the order and guess what? I would have to pay for the return shipment! Of the bed which they failed to deliver. So I don't have the bed and they won't return (all) the money. Will never buy from this company again.”

“Most ridiculous and unprofessional customer service you can ever get in UK, I ordered an AC on 13/06/2023 which was estimated to be delivered on 21/06/2023. Initially the tracking number showed that its sitting on XDP distribution unit since 16/06/2023, after chasing and chasing I was finally informed its been lost by the carrier. Then promised to deliver the replacement unit by 30/06/2023 the latest. After calling on 28/06/2023 to reconfirm delivery date, I have been told a new story that now it will be shipped on by 30/06/2023 the latest and not before, with new "estimated" delivery date of 06/07/2023. Today is 01/07/2023 and if its been shipped I would have received a new tracking number, which I haven't, meaning its still not shipped. Wayfair ridiculous policy do not allow you to cancel your order and buy the same product from another decent supplier, they ransom your payment for their mess ups and blackmail their customers to stay and bear their horrible service. Unbelievable, never buying with them again.”

“Useless company. Ordered some curtain brackets and then had to cancel half of them as i realised they were pairs. My fault but order was amended within 5 minutes. Firstly they delivered completely the wrong items - curtains instead of curtain pole brackets. Secondly they failed to make the refund. Trying to use their chatline to resolve this is a waste of time as they don’t appear to have any of the right information and then simply leave you sat waiting for an answer (30 minutes) so have taken it up with VISA who will resolve the issue. I won’t ever shop with them again and suggest you don’t either. It’s just not worth it on several levels.”
