This is the worst online business I have ever dealt with. First they sent the wrong rug, then the return by UPS pick up took weeks. They had to call UPS for me and get them to come pick them up. I made an online payment just to cover myself until they could straighten out the account, but after multiple calls and emails, they still charged me two late fees- 25.00 and 35.00 plus interest, and want me to pay for it all. I will pay, and cancel this card, and give these reviews every place I possibly can, even my facebook page. Disgusted.

I haven't actually opened the packaging yet, but so far I'm already furious. First order we made was cancelled before delivery (via email) as the item was suddenly out of stock. We forgave them this and ordered something else. this took several days sat at the depot. when they arrived with the furniture, they simply turned up at 5pm on a Fri with no text reminder and no communication. They refused to bring the enormous, heavy boxes further than the bottom of some stairs leading to my garden, as they had already done one flight of stairs. It was pouring with rain. I was on my own with two toddlers having had no time to prepare for their arrival. They presented me with a delivery slip to sign. When I explained this to a very unpleasant delivery man, he was furious. I refused to sign and in the end they relented and dumped the boxes at the end of the garden. I then enjoyed dragging them to the other end, in pouring rain, with my children standing in rain and tripping in puddles. Let's hope the furniture makes up for the disappointing confrontational "delivery" service they provide!

I don't even want to give these people one star, they honestly don't deserve it. We ordered a couch, and expected it would take a while to ship with "covid". But we would check every few days or so, and no update on shipping. Finally after over a month, we called to try and see what was going on. They couldn't find the couch we had ordered in their warehouse. But never contacted us to let us know. Their solution? 10% off. Wow! You may as well have spat in my face and wiped your back end with our money! Just a shady, awful company. Don't shop with them, don't waste your time.

Very poor customer service. The delivery time they give you has no relation to the reality and when you ask for it they conveniently say we cannot call the carrier and we don't see any online update, we only can email them and they will respond in couple of hours! And they are happy recording the customer telephone conversation for what? To see how they joke with people time? Will never buy anything from them again!

If I could give no stars - NEGATIVE STARS!!!!I Believe me I would. I have spent thousands of dollars over the past years at Wayfair. Recently, I had an order pending for a deck box and when checking status on my order, I saw that my charges were higher than I thouhgt. I thought it was on sale... So I called. I was told no, I ordered it at full price, which is weird because I normally don't do that, and I had not checked my confirmation email.. and so I pulled it up and It did reflect the full price. Then I started looking around their website and found that same item, posted 4 different ways. And on sale on all 4 posts. so I asked if they could change my order to reflect that sale price. Not only was my request refused, i was treated so badly i was shocked. I was going to cancel my order but after I hung up, I changed my mind, I really was looking forward to getting the deck box..I decided to keep it. I went on their website and tried to cancel that order cancellation, at LEAST 5 times, and kept getting an error message. OOPS SOMETHING WENT WRONG..... The system would not allow me cancel. I let UPS know - I wouldn't be home for any pick up and I had tried to stop the cancelation. Fast forward - I tried to place an order a few weeks ago for some bamboo fencing. I have found that I am now blocked on the Wayfair website. A friend of mine knew i was planning on the fencing and i told her about being blocked. She said she wanted to order it for me for my birthday. She ordered it to be delivered to my address and her order was canceled. No notice & no reason was given. Then she reordered it to be delivered to her own address.That order was canceled,as well.. No notice & no reason. They will not give her an explanation for why her orders are getting cancelled. Her association with me is what i thknk and I feel bad. I have no problem going elsewhere to shop.. I actually found the same product for less just yesterday! Wayfair does not deserve my money. They can block me all they want. But they don't have to do it to other people because of me. And I will give as many bad reviews as I possibly can.. any opportunity that comes up... I do share this story at every opportunity.. I am an excellent customer. I know this because I Have been in customer service my entire career. I provide excellent customer service now at my place of employment. I would NEVER EVEN CONSIDER treating customers the way I've been treated by Wayfair. Worst. Service. Ever. Unethical. Waste of time, money, and good energy. I can spend all that somewhere else.

Delivery service is SHOCKING. Ordered a desk in April only to be fobbed off about delivery dates and delays. I was told it was a supplier issue that was causing the delays. I ended up having my order cancelled by wayfair with our knowledge. Stupidly I ordered another desk early May as the delivery was to be a week later, how wrong was I here we are approaching second week of July and I have only just received half of the desk( in two packages). Fobbed off again with excuse after excuse. I WILL NOT be ordering again from wayfair.

Repeatedly delaying delivery dates (which is not a problem, we know it’s a difficult time with COVID) however Wayfair have, on 4 occasions, told us the item was in stock and would be shipped tomorrow / next couple of days. 14 weeks later and we’re now hearing the delays have been because of: warehouse problems; supplier problems; back-orders;... So, rather than being told that at the time, Wayfair customer service apologized and said it has been resolved, item to shipped soon. More fool us for being led, I suppose. Is this fraud?

If I could give Wayfair minus stars I would, Ordered a sideboard got someone to build it for me, only one package arrived, part two was missing, got in touch with wayfair, had to wait 48 hours for them to find package, when it arrived it was damaged and the door needs replacing, they said they will send another part two, I ordered this on 1st Feb and was told it would be delivered on 21st, had to phone again, received an email telling me it has been dispatched and they will let me know, then they added that they will only deliver kerb side, told them I live in high rise block and couldn't lift it as it's too heavy for me, they suggest I got a friend or relative to help, its 25th Feb now still heard nothing, really disappointed, would never use this company again, also if I want to send it back I have to take it apart and repack it

It’s obvious that Wayfair is one of the shadiest companies out there today. The internet is full of real detailed reviews about how the company promises you a certain delivery date, and then continues to delay your package over and over again until you get it weeks or months later and sometimes never. This hit home for me this month when I ordered a small piece of furniture from them on Dec. 10th. This was a Christmas gift for my wife. It was promised to be delivered by Dec 17th and I still haven’t received it. When I called Wayfair they blame UPS. When I call UPS they explain how they never received the package from Wayfair. And Wayfairs customer service team has been largely unhelpful. When you ask them where the package is , they hang up on you or say they have no way of tracking it. Don’t get burned like me. Don’t shop at Wayfair. Any of their competitors would be a better option.

Seen a lovely dining table and chairs in sale thought fantastic I’ll get that and it will be lovely for Christmas, table was priced down to 149.99. Went through the whole process of payment to be hit with a £300 delivery charge. I mean on what planet are Wayfair on....I live in Belfast so was expecting an additional charge but that is just day light robbery...needless to say I gave my money to another company with more reasonable charges. Wayfair needs to review their charges as like myself it will put customers off shopping with them.

I ordered a corner sofa quite a few weeks and was given a timeline for delivery by October 16th. However, no contact from the couriers to inform me of any delivery slot so chased up Wayfair. They contacted the couriers, XDP and informed me that they had left me a message the night before to arrange a delivery time. This is completely untrue, no message and not even a text or email which phone records would easily prove. Then Wayfair said the couriers would call that day which they never did. They would not provide me with a direct number or contact for XDP either. I called the next day and then they contacted the couriers who contacted me within 10 min only to tell me that I'd missed the slot and that delivery will be sometime next week but couldn't give me a time. Plus they said it could be a call the night before and at that short notice I cannot take time off work. I was furious with them as they said they had contacted me and left a message but this is not true laying the blame on me. I also reiterated, the fact why would I bother chasing up if I had received a message and the fact you couldn't bother to call me back on the day when I complained. I cancelled my order after waiting for weeks given their incompetence and confidence in their ability to deliver. I'm now frantically searching for a sofa which I needed this week which will cost me more but at least I'll have a sofa. I would advise like many on here, don't anticipate on time delivery and be prepared for a lot of hassle if you do order from them but I certainly would recommend to anyone I know stay clear from them!! You might be a lucky one and get something delivered on time. Anyway, I'm looking to see if I~ can seek compensation of the stress and hassle and taking time off work. They shouldn't be allowed to get away with this.

Returns Policy is entirely unsatisfactory and only offered almost half of the original price. I won't use this Company again!

I ordered some new furniture for my new flat, around 14 items from beds to decorative flowers. I made it explicitly clear that I didn’t have access to the flat until Thursday 4th so could I arrange everything for the 5th. I was told “absolutely sir, not a problem”. For the following 7 days, I had around 20 calls from delivery drivers waiting outside my new flat trying to deliver items. I must have spoken to the Wayfair team 5/6 times to repeat the same thing about the Friday delivery to still end up with people turning up. I was then told that Wayfair have “no control of their supply chain delivery time” as they are a “drop ship company”. This meant that for me to have received all of my items I would have needed to take a week off work! When I did get my keys to the flat, I then found a number of parcels had been left on the doorstep instead of a safe place. I also had one delivery driver who decided to pick up a phone call to his “baby girl” whilst delivering one piece of furniture and decided to have an explicit phone conversation with her that evening. Still here waiting for a second bed and a mattress. Terrible service and what is worse is the fact Wayfair actually try to justify the poor experience by blaming their supplier chain. If you want a massive headache and no idea when stuff will arrive, use Wayfair. If not, there are plenty of other services that provide an actual customer experience.

Absolutely terrible! NEVER BUY FROM WAYFAIR! Ordered 3 items, first 2 arrived early, which is great, but if I was working I wouldn't have been there to take in the items so still not ideal... AND, the bed we ordered was damaged, and when we rang, they advised to put some tape on it! the third item, was supposed to arrive first, I live in Devon and the bloody order has been sent to Belfast!!! 3 days late already, have been promised it will arrive 'tomorrow' every single one of those days, and now I have to wait to monday?! I am FUMING!!!!!

Ordered a bed frame from Wayfair which was due for delivery in the morning of Friday 27th July. I took the day of work to receive delivery as they don't deliver on a Saturday waited all day until I was told at 5pm it wouldn't be delivered that day. I spoke to 4/5 customer representatives until I spoke to Jeff - who apologised and told me he would organise delivery today 28 July. I received a txt message saying it would be delivered between 9.45 - 11.45 on the 27th (which it obviously was not). i spoke to him again in the morning of 28th July and he reassured me it would be delivered in the morning. unfortunately still no bed. I'm cancelling my order. Never experienced such a useless ill equipped customer service team. Definitely would never shop with them again. Huge Waste of time and money. Appalling service.

Wayfair use a delivery service completely inappropriate for the type of products they sell. You cannot choose a delivery day when you order an item (nor a time of day - morning/afternoon/evening) and they do not deliver on weekends, so if you work Monday-Friday, forget Wayfair immediately. When you do get your order (after waiting a 2 hr time slot and then an extra hour) the delivery company they use only have insurance to bring items to the first point of entry, so if you live in a block of flats on your own, it’s impossible to get heavy items (such as double beds) up the stairs on your own. A company selling large household items should provide delivery adequate enough to actually get it to your home. Was previously considering buying a full bedroom set from here as their selection is huge, but I’ll go elsewhere now, it’s not worth the stress - Won’t be using Wayfair again.

Placed an online order and was given a delivery date, item wasn’t delivered, given another delivery date and item yet again wasn’t delivered... then told I’d I have to go and pick the item up or face waiting another week, drove to pick it up, then told they could only find half of the bed I’d ordered... so never ever again will I even think about this place, 2 days off work and a cancelled hospital appointment, for nothing.!!!

I have just received an e mail from you to say the Christy Annabelle Berry King quilt cover I ordered last week, has been cancelled, saying it is discontinued, and yet you are still advertising it for sale. I have waited nearly a week for it and am very disappointed. I won't be ordering from you again. Sue Barnes
