Initial Complaint

- Complaint Type:
- Delivery Issues
- Status:
- Resolved
On March 29, 2021 I ordered two small pieces of furniture (a small desk and a small TV stand) from Countryside Amish Furniture. I paid half down (roughly $1300) and paid $150 extra for it to be delivered to my home. The invoice indicated that the furniture would be ready in 16-20 weeks. I followed up on June 24 (week 13) and was told that “your order is currently scheduled to reach the staining/finishing stage the second half of October. This stage typically takes 2-3 weeks before completion and being ready to schedule a delivery.” (This 2-3 week business will be a recurring theme.) I decided to be patient. On October 28 I contacted Countryside again and was told that “We heard back from the shop, and your furniture is built and will be reaching the staining/finishing stage the first of next week. This stage typically takes 2-3 weeks before completion and being ready to schedule a delivery.” I followed up again on November 12 and 15 and was told that “your furniture reached the staining/finishing stage the first of November as scheduled on October 28th. This stage takes 2-3 weeks before completion before being ready to schedule a delivery.” On November 26, 29, and 30 I contacted Countryside to try and get a status. Again, I was informed that “Your order is currently in the staining and finishing phase and on track to be completed in 2-3 weeks.” Currently we are in week 36 since I ordered the furniture. Even Countryside’s website says they estimate 26-36 weeks for completion of new furniture orders. At this point, I think the 2-3 week excuse is just a bunch of baloney and my patience has run out. I would like BBB to contact Countryside to expedite matters and get my furniture delivered promptly, by December 15. I have numerous emails with all of this information which I would be happy to share.Business response

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:1. I NEVER said, on the phone or in writing, that I wanted my furniture delivered before Christmas. I did ask, in early November, whether I would receive my furniture before Thanksgiving, and they said no, it would be after Thanksgiving. When I contacted then 3 times after Thanksgiving, they responded on December 1 that it would be yet another 2-3 week wait.
2. Their last response on December 1 reiterated that it would be 2-3 weeks before my furniture was ready to ship. Note that was the third time this fall they said it would be 2-3 weeks later.
3. I did receive my furniture on Saturday, December 11. Note that the shipper called me on Monday, December 6 to arrange the shipping date. It appears to me that it was only after I filed my BBB complaint that the company suddenly expedited shipping. Otherwise it would’ve been 2-3 weeks after December 1, as they said.
4. As I now have my furniture after a 36 week wait, I want nothing else to do with this company and their poor business practices.
Sincerely,
****** ******
