      I recently had the unfortunate experience of dealing with Furniture City and their utterly ridiculous return policy. I purchased a spring box from them, and within a mere 48 hours, I realized what a grave mistake I had made. However, attempting to return the item (still in its opened box ) turned out to be an absolute nightmare. Firstly, let's talk about their so-called "customer service." The staff at Furniture City seem to have mastered the art of indifference. When I approached them with my legitimate concern about the spring box, I was met with eye rolls and dismissive attitudes. It's almost as if they train their employees to treat customers like a burden rather than the lifeblood of their business. Now, let's get to the heart of the matter - their return policy. According to Furniture City, waiting a whole 48 hours is apparently too long to expect a return. I mean, come on! In what universe is two days considered an eternity to decide whether a piece of furniture is suitable? It's as if they want customers to make hasty decisions and regret them later. The absurdity doesn't end there. When I explained the issues with the spring box still which was not ever removed from its box and requested a return, they had the audacity to tell me that I had waited too long. Excuse me? Last time I checked, two days doesn't qualify as an eternity. It's clear that Furniture City's return policy is nothing but a cleverly disguised scam to trap unsuspecting customers into keeping subpar furniture. I do not enjoy throwing our hard-earned money down the drain. Their shoddy return policy and lackluster customer service are a potent combination designed to leave you stuck with furniture you don't want and regretting ever setting foot in their store.

      We attempted to return the item, a bed spring box, which was never removed from its packaging. This particular bed spring box is ingeniously rolled inside a box, and once the outer box is cut to remove the item, it springs open and expands 15-20 times its original size. Consequently, it is practically impossible to repackage it.
      The purchase of this item was made on the afternoon of 11/29 to complement a floor sample mattress acquired simultaneously. Upon arriving home, we identified an issue with the mattress. Realizing the mattress couldn't be refunded, we sought to return the spring box, which was not on sale and eligible for a refund.
      The day after the purchase, during business hours, I contacted the store to inquire about the return process for this item. I was assured that someone would return my call. However, after four days, having received no response, I contacted the store again on Monday to reiterate my inquiry. Once more, I was told that someone would get back to me, but when no one did, I called again. To my surprise, I was informed that, after four days, it was deemed too late to process the return.
      It's crucial to note that the item remains unopened in its original box. As emphasized earlier, once the bed spring box is unpacked, it springs open and expands significantly, making it practically impossible to fit back into the original packaging. The item is again here attached. It is still in the box.

      Our first encounter with Ms. ****** after her pickup on Wednesday, November 29, was via phone on Monday, December 4, five days after she picked up her mattress and foundation. At this time, Furniture City was not made aware of a quality issue or the foundation being “subpar” as the customer only advised that she no longer needed the foundation. Due to the length of time the foundation was in her possession, and Ms. Catano-******* advised that this was purchased for a home-sharing/AirBnB property, Furniture City could not provide an exception to our store policy regarding returning the product. Upholding the return policy allows us to protect our customers from purchasing potentially compromised products. We value our customers and make every effort to provide reasonable outcomes, however, we cannot guarantee the conditions/environment the furniture is subject to once it leaves our warehouse.

      I appreciate your prompt response and the detailed explanation regarding the situation with my purchase. However, I must bring to your attention some discrepancies in your account of the events.

      Contrary to the information provided, we visited your store only two days after purchasing the mattress and foundation. Regrettably, the individual who sold us the item was not available, and we were advised by the staff, specifically a large lady at the desk, to either return the next day or contact the store by phone. Despite our attempts to reach out on Saturday, we were placed on hold twice and were unable to speak with the person who handled our sale.
      Our dissatisfaction escalated by Monday, primarily due to perceived evasion by the staff. We refrained from unpacking the foundation, leaving it intact inside the box. 

      Understanding the limitations of returning a mattress once opened, our intention was solely to seek a refund for the foundation, as communicated to us during a phone conversation. The suggestion that the foundation being intended for an Airbnb property is irrelevant since it remains unopened in its original packaging.

      We find it disconcerting that the information provided by your staff seems to differ significantly from our experience. We hope for a fair resolution that aligns with your store's commitment to customer satisfaction.

      Sincerely,
      ****** ***************

      Ms. ******* purchased this table set in December 2022. She declined delivery and opted for pickup. Despite our store policy stating that items that are picked up must be brought back to the store for repairs or issues; Furniture City, in good faith, scheduled a technician to go to her house on 8/2/2023 and repair her table. The technician advised he couldn’t complete the repairs because the customer refused. On 8/4/2023, Ms. ******* confirmed that she refused repairs because she “wants a replacement”. It was explained that the issues with the table are cosmetic and do not affect the structural integrity of the table, therefore, a repair was deemed the appropriate course of action. The customer was advised she could bring the table in to the store for the warranty repairs or pay $60 for the technician to go to her house again as the first time was done as a courtesy.
      According to the manufacturer’s warranty, “the sole liability of ****** is limited to repair, or at its option replacement, of the applicable product or part found, upon examination of an authorized manufacturer’s representative of ******, to evidence a material manufacturing defect.” Customer still has her warranty options available, however customer must be willing to work with us to get this resolved.

      Dear Better Business Bureau, I am writing to file a complaint about a recent purchase of furniture from a company that has been less than satisfactory. On September 9, 2022, I purchased a Living room set from Furniture City at their **** ****** ***** ***** ** ************ **. Upon delivery of the furniture, I immediately noticed a tear in the sofa. The tear in which makes the furniture unattractive and not what I have paid for. I contacted the company to report the defects and request a replacement or fixed, but have been met with unhelpful customer service representatives who still have not got this fixed. They keep telling me the parts are going to be delivered in a container. In the meantime my love seat recliner is making a popping sound every time you recline. I am requesting them to return these items because I do not want to keep having issues and not being fixed and not getting any response! The General Manager ***** ****** insinuated that I broke it while in my home. He is VERY rude and unprofessional. I have attempted to resolve this issue directly with the company, but have not received any satisfactory solution. Therefore, I am turning to the BBB to help me resolve this dispute. I am seeking a full refund or a replacement of the defective furniture. I have attached copies of the photograph of the defective furniture as evidence. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and hope that we can reach a satisfactory resolution. Sincerely, ****** *******

      When the customer reported the issue on September 9, 2022, we submitted the issue to the manufacturer immediately requesting a replacement cover for the portion that was torn on the delivered sofa. The manufacturer is overseas and advised they would not have the part until early 2023. Our office employees attempted to call the customer. On April 22, the customer came into the store and said that she was tired of waiting for the replacement piece and that her loveseat recliner was “not working correctly”. The customer then spoke with a manager and asked if she could return the items she purchased and get a different living room set. When the customer explained the issue with her recliner and demonstrated with the store’s floor model, her child laid on the recliner portion of the loveseat as it reclined and she had to move him off. The reclining mechanisms are not made to support this type of use, however, we advised we will look into this and get back to her. After looking into the issue further, we reported that we cannot swap because of the length of time the set was in the customer’s house and we haven’t confirmed there is an issue with the loveseat yet. The customer asked to speak to upper management, who called her on April 28 and set up a next-day pickup for the loveseat to be repaired and the torn arm piece replaced. On April 29, our delivery drivers attempted to call the customer to let them know they were almost at their house, but there wasn’t an answer. Our office employees attempted to call the customer, who answered, became upset, and hung up the phone. When attempting a second call, the customer cursed at the office employee, who attempted to confirm the customer didn’t want service that day verbally. The customer, ******, and her husband were yelling into the phone that they “don’t want Furniture City’s ****” and hung up the phone again. We are still willing to assist the customer, however, they will need to bring the loveseat to the store as we have already attempted to accommodate the customer by scheduling a next-day service in their home, and at a timeframe that works for them while we were already at capacity and had a full delivery schedule for that day only for them to cancel. We want to ensure that we do not end up wasting time and resources again only to be met with the same outcome. Alternatively, the customer can opt to pay the $99 service fee + tax and we can schedule a visit to their house to pick up the loveseat for repair as originally agreed. 

      Thank you,

      I bought three pieces of furniture from furniture city on March 4, 2023. They stated that it would take 2 to 3 weeks to get my furniture. I called on March 23, 2023 and talked to *** ***** the manager and he said he would have my furniture in two weeks. On April 13, 2023 I went to the store and he again promised me that he would have my furniture in 10 days. He delivered two pieces of furniture to me, but still has not delivered my recliner. I called on April 25, 2023 and they said it would be a few days. I called on April 27, 2023 and I still do not have my recliner. I believe this is fraudulent behavior and activity. It’s almost been two months and I still do not have my recliner. I want my money refunded. If they cannot give me my furniture as promised, and I can give him his two pieces of furniture back. This is ridiculous.

      Furniture City is in no way trying to be fraudulent regarding this order. While we try to forecast the timeframe for the item arrival, there are unforeseen delays that can happen on the manufacturer's end, which we have communicated with Ms. ****** every time she asked. Ms. ****** was notified when her recliner arrived, and is currently in possession of the recliner. If anything else is needed, please let us know and we will be happy to assist.

      I went and bought a recliner and a living room set in June 2022 I didn’t pick up the merchandise till late October 2022 because my mobile home was not ready yet. After that I had it storage till late November 2022 when I moved into my mobile home. We are hardly home and hardly sit on the recliner and in January 2023 my husband and I would sit on it and it was squeaking like it’s about to break. I did reach out to furniture city where they told me to take it in which I did and they said they would fix it. I picked it up a week after stating they fixed it when we got home it was not fixed and just had plastic on the bottom of the recliner. I called back letting them know of the issues were still there they stated they fixed it. Then a couple days later the manager stated that they needed a part this was 3 weeks ago and we went in today 03-02-2023 and the manager said that my husband needed to measure a piece in the bottom of the recliner and that he already ordered the part from china and it takes weeks to receive it. We told him it has been 3 weeks and he said well it is coming from china it takes awhile. Mind you we have not used the recliner for 2 months and has just been sitting in my house. So today the manager said when my husband measures and send him the measurements he will order it somewhere in in the US, which should have been done in the first place. I am asking for a refund, replacement or repair it has been months with no repair and them stating they repaired it and didn’t.

      Since the complaint was made, the replacement part that the customer is referring to was received, installed, and the recliner repaired. The customer was notified of the repair, given the opportunity to inspect and confirm the issue is resolved, and is currently in possession of the recliner.

      On October 24, 2022, my furniture was delivered which was a sleigh bed, mattress, 5 drawer chest.  Everything looked fine but when I looked at the mattress it looked curved in the middle.   When I laid on the bed, I could feel the coils on the sides and I fell deep into the mattress.  It was not the mattress I laid on in the store.  The mattress started to make my back hurt.  I called the lady at the store and she advised me to take picture and send the picture of the tag well there was only one not two and she said there was nothing they could do without the two tags.

      The store spoke with Ms. ***** multiple times explaining that pictures of the mattress and the law tag were needed to process a warranty claim and to verify customer's claims that this mattress was not the same as what she ordered. Customer did not provide the pictures, however, she insisted that there was no other tags on the mattress while in the store. When customer was in store, one of our customer service reps went with Ms. ***** to the floor and explained the coils are supposed to be on the bed and showed her where to find the location of the law tag on her mattress. The customer service department also asked customer to provide pictures of the mattress to document the dips she explained in person. The store did not receive these pictures either. The mattress was brand new, and not opened until it was in the customer's home. We have tried working with the customer, but despite agreeing to send pictures back in October, customer has still yet to provide any photographic evidence of the issue.

      The customer's mattress was replaced according to the manufacturer's warranty. The manufacturer updated their lineup so the model number does not exactly match the replacement mattress, but it is the same mattress. The customer's wife has called the store and this information was explained, however, we are still addressing this issue with the customer outside of the BBB correspondence.

      The manufacturer updated the model number, as they do every year, changing the item number. When replacing the mattress under the warranty, the same bed (under the new item number) was provided to the customer. This was explained to the customer, however, regardless of the explanation, the customer refuses to believe anything other than us giving her a completely different mattress. A manager went to the customer's house to verify customer's claims that the pillowtop mattress was "rock hard" or "like concrete". When he verified the mattress was within the standards for the pillowtop mattress purchase, he advised the customer that because it was a warranty issue, and they are not happy with a mattress within the correct standards, he was willing to take the mattress back and give the customer store credit for the price of the mattress on another item. The customer has had a mattress in their house for over 6 months, with delays due to the customer not providing needed information to process their warranty swap, therefore, Furniture City is only able to provide a store credit.

      On 7/22/22, I spoke with Thomas and ordered a dinette set with 4 matching chairs. I did not want the high top with the black vinyl seat and backs. I wanted the low table and chairs in medium brown, and requested fabric seat and backs. (My good friend, ****** ****, of 25 years was with me at the time and heard me request the cloth chairs and Thomas agreed that I could. He also said that since the table and chairs were in stock, they could be delivered on 7/30.22, When the table and chairs arrived on 7/30/22, the table was dark brown (I had ordered medium brown) and the chairs had black vinyl rather than the cloth that I had ordered, I immediately call Furniture City and spoke with Thomas the same day and he told me to come in and we could discuss this, which I did. He told me that he would have to talk to his supervisor and would call me back. He said I could possibly get a store credit and again said he would talk to his supervisor or possibly I could just try the set for 30 days. I told him that I did not want a store credit, I wanted the set that I ordered. Again, he said that he would call me back, but never did and I called the store again and spoke with Betty, and she got Thomas on the phone - He said that I did not tell him that I wanted the fabric chairs and that the set only came with the black vinyl chairs. He said that I signed a contract and knew what set I was getting. I told him that I signed the purchase order in good faith that he was putting the correct Order Number and all the description had was a table and 4 chairs. I asked to speak with his supervisor and Nick came on the phone and told me that there are no returns or exchanges, that the table and chairs only came in two colors (cherry and dark brown). I told that Thomas said I could get the set in medium brown, which was the color of the table I was sitting at when I placed the order. He also said that I signed a contract and could not return the set even after getting the wrong set.

      According to the store’s agreement with Ms ******, which she personally signed, no returns are allowed after the furniture has been delivered, particularly that the table is not defective and it was the correct item she ordered. Ms ****** simply changed her mind about her chosen table after it was delivered to her house on 07/30/2022. She told an associate she “doesn't like the table, because it doesn't go in her kitchen how she has pictured it,” and the associate confirmed with Ms ****** that “it is not the wrong item, the wrong color, nor damaged.” Though it is not the store’s fault, a store manager already spoke to her soon after and agreed to let her select another table but the customer never showed up or contacted the store.

      Dear Ms. *********,

      My name is *** **** and I am an attorney here in Albuquerque and represent Ms. ***** in the above referenced matter.

      She sent me a copy of your email in which it asks for her response to the reply from Furniture City.

      She has retained me because the statements submitted by Furniture City are not true and are intended to prevent the BBB from investigating this matter.

      First, my client never “simply changed her mind” as they state. The company delivered the wrong item and Ms. ****** told the delivery drivers  of the mistake when they brought the item and then immediately called the store to advise them that the item delivered was not what she ordered or paid for.

      In their response, Furniture City admitted that they offered for her  come down and select another table, which should on its face prove that they delivered the wrong table. In addition, the chairs were not what were ordered and she told them of their mistake as well. My client expect the BBB to fully investigate this mater and work to provide a remedy and not merely rely on misrepresentations from the company.

      Please confirm receipt of this email and that the BBB will conduct a proper investigation and provide the relief my client is entitled to receive, which is obviously delivery of the item she purchased or return of her money with the return of the wrong product.

      I will look forward to hearing from you.

      Sincerely,

      Again, Ms. ****** simply changed her mind about her chosen table after it was delivered to her house on 07/30/2022. We have worked with Ms. ******'s bank, provided documentation that what was written on her invoice at the time of sale, matched what was delivered to her house, with a signature confirmation on the day of the delivery as well.
      While Furniture City did offer the customer to reselect after the delivery was made, this was not an admission of guilt. Rather, this was an attempt to satisfy a repeat customer whose business we value. 
      The evidence of the matter has been reviewed by the customer's bank as well, who decided in favor of Furniture City that a refund was not needed in this case. Despite this decision, Mr. **** emailed our Finance Representative advising that Ms. ****** was willing to retain him to “purse (pursue) action against Furniture City”, citing “defective items” (this differs from the response provided now). Furniture City decided to refund customer.
      Ms. ******'s finance account was refunded after Furniture City arranged a time to pick up the table (at the convenience of Ms. ****** at no charge for the additional trip to her house). Every step during the return process was communicated to Mr. ****, ending with the confirmation on 10/10/2022 that Ms. ******’s account was refunded, yet we are still receiving responses that the customer is not satisfied.
      Could the customer please advise what further they are expecting Furniture City to do regarding this matter?

      Customer response

      10/20/2022

      Furniture City has picked up the dinette and my refunded the total amount. I have no further business or complaint with them.

      I purchased 2 Queen beds along with 2 mattresses and a table along with stools on December 03, 2021. After I purchased it I later went in because the sales agent that sold it to me said that they would have it within 4 weeks. When I got there that same sales agent stated that he had not said 4 weeks that he had said it was 4-16 weeks which was not true because I have all my family as witnesses. Now it has been 16 weeks and they still have a lot of the items I purchased missing I asked for a refund since it is not my fault that the items are not there but the same sales agent said no that if I wanted he could get me something that he has in store. I don’t think any of this is fair because I’ve been waiting for 16 weeks already. They do not seem to keep their word like a responsible and respectful business.

      A representative of Furniture City has reached out via text to Mr ******* offering expedited delivery of the items that have already been received as part of his order, providing an update on the status of the remaining furniture, and offering a free second delivery of those items. There was no response from the customer. 
      Since Mr ******* contacted his bank to dispute the charge, we have been working with his bank to respond to his dispute. Because Mr ******* is choosing to cancel his special order, he is subject to a 25% cancelation fee, according to the store’s cancellation policy that he signed when placing his special order; quoted below: 
      “NO REFUNDS.” “All special orders are final sale.” “I understand that FURNITURE CITY is put to an expense for ordering and preparing merchandise and restocking expenses. Cancellations on the part of the customer will be subject to a loss of 25% of the total price.” 
      The cancellation fee is $3,965.48 X 25% = $991.37. The amount that can be refunded should be 3,965.48 - 991.37= $2,974.11. The Special Order designation was checked prior to closing the deal (Customer’s carbon copy will reflect this as well). This validates the “special orders are final sale” portion of the cancellation policy justifying the 25% cancellation fee.

      I am rejecting this response because: I tried resolving this issue already I was not the one at fault. I have read the contract over and over and it said that the things were going to be in by 4-16weeks. I feel like it is not fair that I have to pay for the consequences. They should of told me when I first purchased the stuff that if the things weren’t in by the 4-16 weeks that I had to wait longer. Also the guy that did the contract said it was only going to take up to 4 weeks only. I was never told either that they were going to take money away from me if I decided to cancel my order. 

      Regards,

      Furniture City has handled this request with the customer's bank when the customer submitted a dispute in April 2022. The bank approved Furniture City's submission stating "the cancellation fee is $3,965.48 X 25% = $991.37. The amount that can be refunded should
      be 3,965.48 - 991.37= $2,974.11." Any refunds would have been processed by the customer's bank through their dispute department.

      Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because: I think it is unacceptable that I have to pay for their consequences. I worked so hard to be able to pay for all the furniture I needed for them to tell me that they do not have it and that I have to wait longer. It is so unfair. I thought you were all here to support us. Haven’t you seen their ratings how are you not supporting us the consumers. You think it’s fair that I now have to give 25% percent back to them no if I no longer want the furniture. They treat their clients so bad they literally make fun of us once they have our money they no longer care if we receive anything or not! I have attached some of the concerns that exist online I am so disappointed to see how you don’t support us at all. I WANT MY FULL REFUND! I work so hard for my money!
