      Zero stars is more appropriate. We purchased a reclining love seat that was delivered a week ago. 98% of all furniture at ******** is a special order. Of 100s of sofas and loveseats there were maybe 1/2 dozen that were in stock. We had taken photos of our other furniture that would be adjacent with us into the store. With the assistance of one of their highly trained consultants we ordered the loveseat. When it arrived the fabric looked nothing like what we picked out and would not go with our other furniture. We called and were told our consultant would not be in for 3 days. I spoke with another highly trained consultant who had one question-Did you refuse delivery? I said no we needed time to look it over. She answeredToo bad you are now its proud ownerWhen our highly trained consultant was back at work we called her and told her our issue. She said she would talk with her manager and call back. She called the next day and said sorry but her manager would not agree to an exchange.We werent asking for a refund. What we wanted to do was order the love seat in leather which was more than $1000 more. Lazy boy has different return policy on its website vs what is on the contract. The one on the website doesnt mention anything about not being able to return or exchange special orders. The contract says you cant.I was in sales and sales management for products and services ranging from $500,000 to over $10 Million. I have never encountered an organization, salesperson or sales manager that had such a lack of customer service awareness.If you are contemplating buying furniture and lazyboy is on your list to consider, run to another retailer on your list.

      My husband, ***********************, and I ordered 2 chairs in February 2023 from ********* ****************************************************************. We put half down. Order #***-59433. We paid the balance 5-3-2023, because they would not deliver the chairs otherwise, and the chairs were delivered 5-16-2023. The back was broken on my recliner. My husband's lift chair electronics quit working 10 minutes after they delivered it, My husband is a 100% disabled US Marine ******* veteran. He was stuck in his chair and couldn't get out, without getting people to help us. We put in a work order, reference # ***********. They came out June 15, 2023 & said they had to order parts. We got the parts & had to call again. They were supposed to come out July 18, but called & rescheduled for August 1, 2023. All this time we have not had chairs. Nobody cared. I asked the manager to call me back & said I wanted a refund. He never called me back. We are VERY UPSET & want a refund.

We as a team will continue to work toward having a variety of parts in our service vans to help us complete service as needed during our 1st service call visit , Thank you for understanding , We will be processing your refund shortly after we pick up your item as discussed.

      This complaint has not been completely resolved yet. They would not give me a refund until they picked up the chairs. They picked them up *************. They called Friday evening & said they were crediting my credit card I used for this purchase. I still have not been notified of this credit. So until I am notified of this credit by my credit card company, I will not close this complaint. They always protect themselves first, and the customer must wait & wait & wait. I bought a new chair for my husband at ******************** in **********. They delivered the chair the next day and would not take payment until we were satisfied that the chair was the right color & size and that all the electronics worked. Now THAT IS GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE!

      On October 22, 2022 we purchased a sofa and two recliners for $6,150 and paid $3,074 down. We were told 8 to 16 weeks for delivery. As of today, 04/09/2023 we have not received our furniture (02/11/2023 would have been 16 weeks). Emails of 02/16/2023 and 02/27/2023 to our sales rep went unanswered. We visited the store in early March and were told that we should expect delivery by the end of the month. We called on March 30th and were told that two pieces were in and they were waiting on the 3rd piece and would probably be in at the end of this month. Its now 24 weeks and counting.

      We are so sorry it took longer to get your special order than our original quote time, We hope we can correct your inconvenience by offering a free delivery. It looks like the items were able to get schedule for delivery the day after this complaint letter went out. Again we do apologize for the longer turn around time

      We purchased a custom order on November 23, 2022 and were told 10 to 12 weeks. We hadnt heard anything by 15 weeks so called to find out it had been delayed a month was told oh well we could give you free delivery. Only to be told well you bought the extended warranty package so its already included, just ask for me next ********** give you a deal & havent heard anything since. Here it is now a month later I called & they said itll be another month, so I asked to talk to a supervisor was told one wasnt there. Called the next three days in a row & never being able to talk to a supervisor or received a call back. This is absolutely ridiculous. Now theyre saying one extra month which would take it to six months, if we were ever told any of this we wouldve never purchased. Not to mention the 50% I put down at almost $5k. First time dealing with this company & will definitely be my LAST! Id love to hear back from anyone in this terrible company, at this point a refund would be the best thing they could do!

      Complaint: 19859014

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I get automated texts & email that come through just fine from la-Z-Boy. Even stranger is how I filed this very complaint & if I remember correctly it was the next day that when I was notified, my furniture was in and I needed to pay & schedule for my delivery via text & via email. So I paid my fee online like it said to for the remainder of the order  and I scheduled the delivery online at the same time as it stated to do. Only after that if I remember correctly did I actually receive a call from ******** that came through and correct at that point I did not answer it because A I was on the other line B the call came through from the north ****************, which was a 303 number not a ******** number & C I already knew my furniture was coming & I did everything online automatically. So why honestly did I  to talk to them anymore at that point because I felt it all happened because I did put the complaint in as I never heard back before that point. So obviously, my phone was & is working just fine. I find it kind of funny how i didnt receive a voicemail message off that only call either. So their response sounds kind of backwards to me. It didnt take another month to get my furniture as previously told to me over the phone by a sales associate, thank God. (and honestly, I feel some of this came because I put in the complaint) But I just cant get over the lack of customer service skills, and integrity I  feel is at this store. When they sell it to you they tell you 12 to 16 weeks *** even though the paperwork states something completely different at 6-9 weeks for custom fabric.  But here it is 20 weeks later, and it just arrived. But they get to kept your money & put you off when you call & ask for information about your not cheap order that you put almost 4K down on. I mean they held onto my down payment for 20 weeks all while putting me off and a manager not even calling me back. It was honestly a simple request in my opinion to want to know where my furniture was after not receiving it in the time they stated. It is now April 10 twenty weeks later and the furniture was finally delivered today, yes. But nothing happens for their false promises? Or for them even for lying in their response. Sounds ridiculous to me, but what do I know Ive only owned several companies. What on earth was I thinking? Silly me. I honestly have never & would ever treat any of my customers in this fashion. I called frequently and everybody was so nice until I wanted to talk to a manager then they would be short & say frequently hes not here, we cant help you any further you have to talk with a manager, we cant control when the furniture comes in, & h*** call when he has time , & all typically in a very inconvenient tone, typically even sighing. Sadly nothings ever came of the calls so I did file my complaint. Funny how theyre so quick to take your money but dont take the time to actually give you good customer service & simply just call you back or keep you updated. What a shame! At least I know now I will never go back to this store! Ill also scream it from the rooftops to anybody I know. I have also attached an email which has the date that I put in the complaint and then the email from ******** the next day stating that my delivery was in magically also the contract witch stated times expected for delivery. Id love to see their proof to back up their claims of calling or how I was notified before I filed my complaint because i didnt receive anything or else I never would have complained. But reading the BBB site that seems to be a frequent company practice.

      Sincerely,
      ***************************;

      We ordered 2 chairs on November 28, 2022. We paid a deposit of $1,300. The contract indicates 6 to 9 weeks for delivery. It has been 18 weeks. They will not refund money and indicate the terms and conditions say we cannot cancel. They have not delivered and will not/cannot tell me when they will deliver. We want our full deposit back. At this point we feel this is fraud and breach of the contract.

      On 10/19/2022 I finally received delivery of a $1,596.96 ******** recliner that I had originally ordered on 3/18/2022. The chair was clearly defective, as the seat cushion is not level but heavily titled to the right side. Twice ******** sent a service technician (on 12/12/2022 and 1/19/2023) to repair the recliner, to no avail. I sent correspondence (via email) to :*************************************, CEO ********************* ***************************************************** (*******.***********@ la-z-boy.com)on two dates: 1/17/2023 and 1/23/2023 about the outstanding need to repair or replace the recliner. When I did not receive a reply to either of these, I sent a follow up email to ************************** on 2/23/2023. I have still not received a response from ************************** or any other representative of ********. I am truly disgusted, as I have had five spine surgeries, and I am now having my sixth spine surgery on 3/14/2023. I was hoping that this new recliner would be supportive of my back, but that is simply not the case. I depended upon the "good reputation" of ********, and I am now chagrined to learn that it has an "F" rating from the BBB; I should have checked with BBB first! What do I want? A complete replacement of the defective and irreparable recliner with all the options that I ordered on 3/18/2022. AND I want this on an urgent and expedited basis, like yesterday.

      I purchased a ******** chair from this store along with an extended warranty, which is still valid. It is a Power Lift recliner to help my wife stand. It broke in a position halfway up on Christmas day and can't be used. We called customer service immediately for help, and they scheduled an appointment for today, January 18, 2023. We explained that it was critical for my wife to be able to use the chair and they said they would put "medical necessity" on the service work order so we could get a sooner repair date, but this did not occur. Then today, the service repairman called and canceled because it is snowing in ******. They then rescheduled the repairman for three more weeks out, February 7, 2023. This is unacceptable. We have been trying to call customer service and actually spoke to someone at this store begging for help, but he said we had to go through customer service. When I explained that we have been on hold for hours with customer service and no one answers, he apologized, but said he could not help us schedule a sooner appointment. I would like either an immediate exchange for a working chair or a full rebate so I can purchase a chair from a retailer with better customer service.

      After purchasing an extended warranty on our couch, we have been unable to get anyone's assistance in having it repaired. In the past month, I have spent over 6 hours on hold, been told to contact different companies, and been told by store employees they are unable to assist. I would like a contact that is able to help ************ repaired after paying for an extended warranty in 2020.

      On July 17th, we committed to purchasing two chairs and an ottoman prepared to order. We paid a $2,000 deposit. Our sales rep ******* told us corporate was telling them to advise customers ***** weeks for completion. She admitted they had not been keeping up and to expect some delays. Called 9/22 (the 14th wk) was told "will ship sometime in October, between 1st and 31st..." Called 10/26 and was told "will ship early November." Called 11/16 and was told ottoman had been in ****** for weeks, chairs were complete and packaged at the warehouse, expect them to arrive in ***** days. Called on 12/6 and was told "good news, your chairs are in production - they have an estimated ship date of 12/21/22....." Lies - Lies - Lies! We are now 21 weeks into a ***** week delivery promise and there is still no resolution in sight. I was told a manager would call me back - they have not.

      I bought a LaZ Boy Makenna sofa on 02/2018 for $1847.99 and if water is spilled on it, it doesn't dry and evaporate. It shows the water marks on the furniture and it looks dirty. Per the instructions from LaZ Boy (reiterated on call with *** today at ******** customer service) I should try a water based cleaner. I did try that and it only made the situation worse and now I have more water marks that are extended on my sofa. I called LaZ Boy on 11/2/2022 and asked if I could get someone out to clean the couch because my efforts weren't helping. Once again, they told me to use 'water based cleaner' or they preferred me to hire a professional upholstery cleaner. I would pay for this, but I don't think it will work based on what I've seen with this sofa. This had a 3 year warranty and I'm outside that warranty and therefore they can't help. I'm complaining because there's no way anyone should be able to sell a couch that cannot be reasonably cleaned without causing further aesthetic damage. It truly looks terrible using the directions they provide. I've attached a photo of the cleaner I've used and a screenshot of the manufacturer stating that it's water based. I've also attached photos of the damage the couch sustains whenever a liquid is used on it. I've also attached a photo of the tag that states to use a water based cleaner. I'm asking that they come out and make it look clean, that's it. Thank you for reading.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
