“I purchased a coffee table that cost over $450 and when it arrived I knew immediately it was going to be too large, hadn't even taken it out of the box and called to arrange a return. Wayfair would not allow me to exchange or return the table. They said it was a sale item, also comes from a supplier they said, they have no control over it. So, despite my pleading, they wouldn't credit or refund my purchase. So I have a $450 tabke that doesn't fit in my room and Wayfair told me to sell it on Facebook Marketplace.”

“***BUYER BEWARE!!!! Bought what was supposed to be a down sofa ended up being chopped up old mattress with plastic. Called to have them send me proper material and they refused. Purchase from local retailers to ensure you're getting what you pay for. ***BUYER BEWARE****”

“They patronise you because of they're own logistics team being incompetent. Somehow they make that your fault, even though you pay their wages... Absolutely disgusting company”

“We bought a rabbit hutch. Delivery ok but the quality of the product is poor. We had to reinforce the lid, catches and redo the tray that was supposed to open. Would not buy from them again.”

“I ordered a desk from wayfair and had the assembly package. They damaged the desk in 2 spots. I called wayfair they said I had to call the maker Bush so they transferred me. Bush said due to it was damage from assembly I would have to contact wayfair. I called wayfair again they said nothing they can do I have to call Handy for resolution. They completely ran me in circles with no resolution so far.”

“I moved my house recently and I purchased the TV Unit from Wayfair on 19th September.Estimated delivery date was giving as 14th October. However I have had e mail that the delivery will be no later than 19th. Today which is 20th I have received e mail that it says will be delivered 25th. Unprofessional and terrible. I feel like I have been scammed. Disgusting service. Be away from Wayfair !!!”

“I ordered my bed on 10/10. The original delivery date was set for EOD 10/13. It changed that night to 10/14 and so I had to then update the delivery address which my bed still ended up being delivered to the old address which was a huge inconvenience considering I had to then rent a pickup truck to deliver my bed to the new address. On top of this, I paid for my bed to be assembled and the date and the time have been pushed now to 3 days out since I've had my bed delivered. I've had to sleep on the floor 3 nights in a row. I called customer service and all that happened was me receiving an apology for the inconvenience. My bed is still unassembled, in the middle of my bedroom. I can't even set up my office nor can I do my work which is causing me to have to use my PTO to make up for missed days. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!! This is 4 days now that I've had my bed and it still won't be assembled supposedly until 1pm today 10/17! This is so unacceptable! I dread the couch delivery I have coming this week that needs to be assembled. I’d rather just try to do it myself. And forget about being refunded for canceling the assembly service or getting a reimbursement of some sort. Never again will I ever order from this company.”

“I received a very poor quality item from Wayfair Vancouver and have left a review with some photos attached. All the photos which were showing pilled paint and fallen apart pieces were hidden or removed by moderators. Wayfair turned out to be Wayunfair.”

“Do Not Buy one thing from Wayfair the worst experience ever I ordered a 6 door wardrobe nearly three weeks ago. The day of delivery I was called 9 times from the courier asking me where I was how long was I going to be and making rude remarks to my husband when he called them to ask them to stop calling and that I was a few mins away only for them to cancel my order without my consent I contacted customer service straight away who said they will re schedule the delivery when it did arrive I ordered the assembly service only for the man to arrive 2 hrs earlier then the expected time and he told me 4 parts were missing and he would come back with all parts it is 7:32pm No handy man”

“Terrible customer service and bad experience. Ordered a furniture set (wardrobe, desk, book shelve and small hanging shelve). One box was not delivered, after raising it to the customer service waited for over a month for the resolution. The missing parts delivery was cancelled and moved 3 or 4 times everytime stating that parts were not available but we ordered new ones? What? if they are not available where did you order? to produce them?? Asked for a refund - offered me only 35% - Computer says no - company policy we cannot offer more. 35% won't be enough even to buy a similar item on their website... and definitely from that set the warderobe is the largest item. They can send a refund only if I send the full order back, which is assembled... of course, because I will dissamble it and pack it for them to come and just pick it up! Just ridiculous. Never offered any solution, just selling air, promising smth they cannot deliver. Never again!”

“DO NOT ORDER FROM WAYFAIR! I have ordered 3 tables and each one is damaged. I have been in contact for them over a week trying to return them. I have been passed onto a conflict resolution manager called Caroline who takes one day at best to respond to my emails. I have received no apology for receiving 3 damaged items but am having to jump through hoops just to return them . I have been told I will not receive a refund until they have been inspected by their warehouse. I have sent clear photos of the damage and just want to return them and get my refund. I have rung them to try and quicken up the process but the executive resolution manager will not speak to me. I am so frustrated and appalled at the poor customer service.”

“Paid. But order withheld. This is fraud. Our order was placed on hold. And after many intersections and complaints no one can say why it can’t be released. I’m doubting it will be. Read the reviews and do NOT order from Wayfair if you want my advice.”

“I ordered a bed from Wayfair Canada which was to be delivered to a condo. Unfortunately, they use Fedex which is unable to provide a window for delivery and expects the buyer to sit outside the building all day to receive delivery. Fedex set me up on a text notification system when the driver was nearing the delivery time (which did not notify me). All furniture deliveries that I have received have a delivery co that commonly delivers furniture and provides a confirmation of the delivery timeframe PLUS contact you when they are nearing your location. When I was unable to receive the product that I purchased, Fedex took two days to notify Wayfair that the bed was being sent back to them. This was after spending approx 5 hours on the phone with FEDEX and Wayfair. Wayfair finally said that they would refund me for the purchase. Guess what they did? Not only did they not issue a refund, they billed me for the bed a second time. I am not able to speak with finance. They would not even allow me to show my credit card information online. I was told that it showed that a refund was issued on their end with a system glitch note. I was further told that it would be up to finance to decide about whether they billed me twice for a product that I did not receive. Customer service does not get involved with finance they only submit tickets and the wronged consumer cannot communicate with finance. At this point, Wayfair has billed me over $600 for a product that I do not have. HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! I would recommend not purchasing from these people.”

“If I could give Wayfair minus stars I would! Their service is shocking and so poor I don't know how they are still in business. I purchased 10 copper outdoor lights 2 years ago, but because of construction work and covid they were fitted 1 year ago. After only 1 year of use one outdoor light is full of water and constantly tripping all 10 outside lights, so they never work. I have tried emptying the water but as soon as it rains the water gets in. The lights state IP65 protection which is clearly wrong and on this basis alone is a misrepresentation. I asked Wayfair for a repair, refund or replacement. They don't want to know, they keeping repeating the same 2 year warranty nonsense. When I spoke to Trading Standards they said the 2 year warranty was in ADDITION to my consumer rights and I should not be expected to throw faulty lights away after only 2 years. Wayfair terms and conditions with regards to putting matters right after 2 years is incorrect and Trading Standards are now going to investigate Wayfair on their incorrect trading policies. The team at Wayfair are extremely unhelpful and keep repeating the same misinformation about 2 years warranty and to read their terms and conditions. When I tell them about what Trading Standards have said and that lights should last longer than 2 years Wayfair say it is not their policy to help. If you want anything to last longer than 2 years NEVER buy from Wayfair. They don't read your emails and copy and paste written text that doesn't make any sense to your actual complaint, I think their emails are a complete waste of time. Now I have a faulty outdoor light which has been discontinued and Wayfair who don't want to know in helping me. Having spent 1000s of pounds with Wayfair over the years I am disgusted with their customer service in putting things right. A simple refund would have kept me as a customer. Now I will tell everyone to never buy from Wayfair. The 2 year warranty is incorrect for how long products should last and they should not use this as their only defense. Trading Standards agree with me and are shocked that Wayfair will not put things right after 2 years. The only course of action now is a County Court summons. Avoid Wayfair, they are the worst company to deal with! Spend your money with more reputable companies.”

“Absolutely worst company to order from, ordered a shed only half come on delivery date, 2 calls and 4 days later the other half came only to find all the doors were damaged. Another call to get replacements and had 3 emails for the delay of delivery been waiting 5 weeks this Friday call customer services to complain they are useless, won’t give no compensation apparently it’s policy! Will never use this company again.”

“They wouldn't honor their return policy when trying to return fans that were much larger than described in the item description. The items I purchased were within 30 days from being delivered, they were not 'final sale' items, still in the original packaging and disassembled. Now I'm stuck with 3 ceiling fans I can't use. When trying to work with the associate I also offered to except store credit or to do an exchange and they still wouldn't honor. An absolutely terrible customer experience.”
