“Wayfair is just a drop shipper and has no real idea about the products that they sell. Also since they are just a drop shipper, they are completely out of the loop on shipping”

“Ordered early June. Several emails sent with a delivery date, all followed by another saying there's a delay and no date can be given. Now it's mid August they say they can't get hold of their warehouse and it may be closed for the whole of august so my item "will probably" arrive mid September at the earliest. That's almost 4 months and it's still not guaranteed to arrive! This item is still showing in stock with no delivery issues on their website. I've lost trust and asked for a refund via PayPal. On par with Sports Direct as a valid company worth dealing with. Never again for me”

“I ordered eight lampshades from Wayfair. They came in three separate deliveries and never at the time originally informed. Very inconvenient. In addition I purchased three lampshades at just under £70 each and they arrived with no fitting for the shade. The advert on Wayfair showed two images - one the shade and the other the fitting. They told me that the advert stated there was no fitting. This was true when I went through every bit of the small print - but why show the fitting as part of the advert. I now have to go out and buy the fittings before I can use these lampshades. I would not have purchased if I'd known and have now asked Wayfair to remove all my information from their database and informed them I never wish to receive another email from them, ever.”

“DO NOT SHOP HERE - STORE CREDIT LOCK-IN, HIGH PRICE, SLOW SHIPPING, SLOW SUPPORT, SLOW WEBSITE. Wayfair will lock you into store credits when you cancel any item. Once they have your money, you aren't getting it back. Delivery deadlines are missed by miles and then missed AGAIN which is particularly frustrating if you've just moved house or need things ASAP. I'm still waiting for one item. Items are overpriced just check the same item on Amazon or in the Google shopping tab. The Wayfair website is also very slow. Support felt very 'copy and paste' and there is no service recovery plan. I will stick to Amazon when it comes to online shopping.”

“Wayfair, they have a good customer skills. They answer queries and complaints very good. However I've given you 1 star due to the delivery company- XDP. I really feel for Wayfair they tried to sort them out but the delivery company kust ignore them. Sorry to say, I won't order an item from Wayfair again unless change the delivery company. If you are at home all the time, then you won't have an issue but it's a big 'No thanks' for those works during weekdays.”

“If I could put 0 stars I would! What an awful service I have received, after ordering my bed a week ago, i would NEVER order from wayfair again! Parts missing meant I have slept on a mattress on the floor for a week. After receiving another bed (2boxes of beds in my small flat) I have found out the first bed was the correct parts but the wrong instructions! I’ve had 4 days of sitting at home for deliveries and collections. Compensation? 10% back, never been insulted more in my life.”

“I ordered a bed that was to be delivered yesterday - i got a text saying bed being delivered 17.40-19.40 nothing arrived - tracking saying item now back in delivery site - i have spoken to 3 people this morning at Wayfair customer services and not one of them can confirm what has happened to my item or when it will be delivered - really poor customer service avoid like the plague if you don't want to have the same experience.”

“Unfortunately it's too late for me, wish I saw these reviews before ordering! It has been a horrible experience, ordered a bathroom cabinet for delivery on 31st July, then on the day I realised it was NOT shipped yet! I phoned, was told it will definitely be with me on or before the 7th of August, I was not very happy but was reassured it will definitely be with me so I waited. Comes the 5th of August, I receive an email saying my order is now transferred to a specialist team to investigate and that it will take 2 business days to see what's going on!!! I tried to cancel the order but apparently I am not allowed to cancel it either, now I am stuck without the item and without a way of ordering from elsewhere until they cancel it for me. Terrible service, never ever again even if my life depended on it!”

“WE ordered and paid for a sofa on the 2nd July. We still do not have a sofa. WE gave away our sofa sets to charity prior to our first delivery date. Since 2nd July have gone through a catalogue of disaster, lies, misleading information, to be finally told that the Wayfair delivery agent had lost our sofa. Who can lose a sofa. Countless emails , telephone calls, missed delivery dates on a second sofa we are now in the hands of two senior managers who still do not have clue where any of our sofas have gone. This is the most appalling treatment handed out by Wayfair and it still goes on . Clearly Wayfair still do not have a clue what happened. Do they care. NOOOOO!!!!. People should be very careful of dealing with company as they take your money but do not deliver the goods. Is Wayfair using customers money to prop up their accounts. Apparently you cannot get a refund until the item that you ordered is returned to their depot. How is this possible when the item or items have been lost!!!!! There needs to be a high level government enquiry as to how this company operate in the UK .”

“I made my first purchase and the item was advised as "buy two get 40% off" when it actually meant "buy one, get one 40% off". I contacted customer service and they basically said sorry you're wrong so we won't be doing anything to reimburse you. But impressed, I'll stick with Amazon.”

“3 weeks after our items were due to turn up we were told they had been returned to the warehouse for an unknown reason. We have now been told to wait until March 2020! There were no phone calls and emails go unrealised. Yes, they have now refunded our money but really, it’s shocking service and a company that should be steered clear of.”

“The website is awful. Can't search intuitively. Page formatting needs major overall. Delivery service also terrible. We were given a delivery date and were texted two days early that it was arriving the same day! Of course we weren't at home. You can't run a business like this. They don't deserve to succeed.”

“After ordering twice, got an email for both orders saying that they are cancelled. Where for the first order cancelled it was understood as i used my oversee credit card, I was frustrated that my second order was also cancelled although I used my UK credit card. When I called to complain, I got a very indifferent custom service operator who did not bother to help but just told me that my second order was cancelled due to security reasons for the usage of my first credit card and did not try to do any effort to rectify the situation. She just said that I need to call my bank ans get a 6 digit pass code which is relay rodiculous to do. Never to order again from wayfair.”
