    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    Purchased Premium, High-End six-piece Flexsteel Sectional Sofa on 07/25/2023 for total of $5,623.86 from Blockers Furniture of Ocala, *******. It was delivered Damaged/Defective on 11/09/2023. Upon delivery, I told the Blockers delivery men that the one recliner did not appear to line up correctly with the other sectional pieces and showed them a gap between the sections. They would not take the sofa back. The feet were also bent. It appeared to have possibly been dropped at some point. I emailed ********************* at Blockers photos of the damaged feet and the misaligned sections. It has now been eight months since delivery and Blockers Furniture has not been able to properly repair the damaged/defective sofa which should have been and wasnt shipped back to the manufacturer immediately. I was instead made to go through an extremely lengthy, monotonous repair process, which has been nothing less than a roller coaster ride of their many delayed responses and ignored emails, phone calls and voicemails that I made to Blockers employees. I am now left with a broken sofa that Blockers has been unable to properly repair. It still has the same defects as it initially did and is not what I paid for. They have ceased responding to me. To top that off, when their repairman ***** was out the second time, he jerked and pulled on the back of the sofa unprofessionally and aggressively and I heard it crack. The one recliner is now making a clacking noise when putting it back into the upward position. Im not sure how long the sofa will be operable at this point. I made them a written offer for resolution and it was dismissed without a proper response. I have made more than a good faith effort with Blockers to resolve this issue. This was supposed to be a premium, high-end custom order, which turned out to feel and look more like Bargain Outlet furniture. Detailed notes and photos are attached.

    My shopping experience could not have been better. The salesman was excellent. The ladies in the finance office were also very accommodating and professional. Furniture was delivered on time and the men were very knowledgeable as far as assembly. They were professional, courteous, and accomplished the delivery and setup in a timely manner.
