  We purchased a sofa for $6,700 from Norris Furniture, ****** ** in November of 2022. The fabric covering the sofa had an obvious wear flaw that was apparent after sitting on the sofa the very first time. We immediately complained to Norris. They finally agreed after some weeks to replace the sofa cushion covers. However, the fabric wear problem still persisted with the new cushion covers. I again contacted Norris asking for a full refund and to return the sofa, as my wife and I were terribly unhappy at this point with the horrible condition of our brand new sofa, especially after spending $6,700 with what we had heard from others was a very reputable company. Norris completely refused to do anything additional for us at this point. Norris markets themselves as a premier furniture retailer and guaranteeing customer satisfaction. Quite the opposite. They even tried to initially blame the fabric flaw/defect on my wife and I, arguing that it was a stain we had created. We have found Norris to be less than reputable, sneaky, dishonest and uninterested in customer satisfaction. We are asking the ******************** of West ******* to help us in receiving a full refund from Norris in the amount of $6,700. Thank you.*********************

  **************** reported a perceived defect in his sofa, which Norris submitted to the manufacturer for review, as is our typical practice. The manufacturer reviewed the claim and stated that the fabric was well within acceptable parameters. When this information was relayed to ****************, it was not the result they had hoped for. 
  After discussion with ****************, we worked with the manufacturer to get replacement casings sent to us for their sofa as a courtesy. We arranged this on behalf of the Millers because they have been good clients and if we had a way to make the Millers happy, we wanted to do all we could to do so. 
  When the casings arrived, we sent out our tech to install them. 
  The same issue was reported again, which would suggest that there is a trait in how the fabric behaves that is catching the eye of the Millers. To be sure we again spoke to the manufacturer with the same result: this is well within industry tolerance. 
  We spoke with our service tech who had the same conclusion, as well as the owner of our business, who has extensive experience in refinishing and building fine furniture. All have agreed that this is within industry standards. 
  At Norris Furniture and Interiors, we pride ourselves in our ability to resolve reasonable customer concerns efficiently. We regret that we have not been able to make the Millers completely happy with their sofa but have determined that this is in fact a trait of the fabric selected.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  The Norris response is totally inadequate. I would like the contact information for the owner of Norris Furniture, who apparently lives in ************, to personally discuss resolution of this issue. 

  
  Sincerely,

  In an effort to work towards resolving this issue, Norris would offer to order new seat casings and new cores (cushions) for the seat as well. 

  This would provide brand new seating area and eliminate both the fabric and the cushion cores as the potential culprit for any perceived issues of staining etc.. This would leave only external factors as a cause for any issues. 

  Our service team will reach out in the next day or two to make all the arrangements for this.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  This resolution proposal by Norris is unacceptable. THE FABRIC ON THE ENTIRE **** IS THE PROBLEM. IT DOES NOT WEAR PROPERLY. THE FABRIC ON THE CUSHIONS HAS ALREADY BEEN REPLACED ONCE RESULTING IN THE SAME OUTCOME WITH THE FABRIC APPEARANCE. IT MAKES NO SENSE TO REPLACE THE FABRIC FOR A THIRD TIME WITH PREDICTABLE RESULTS. NORRIS NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. THE **** NEEDS TO BE RETURNED AND A FULL REFUND ISSUED. 
  
  Sincerely,
