I purchased a couch, I very much like the couch, however when I purchased it, the salesman at Ashley specifically told me that the material would NOT tear (I previously had a faux leather couch that ripped and tore within months of purchase and I wanted to avoid that issue with my new couch) He told me that it was a polyester blend that looks like leather and was extremely durable, should we have any issues with the material tearing that a warranty would cover the cost of re-upholstering it.
Well the material tore, it is peeling off the arm rest and along the seat of the chaise! I contacted Ashley, I went into the store, I spoke with 3 customer service reps to have them honour my warranty and nothing! The 1st guy told me leather is not covered under warranty and I assured him this is NOT leather. 2nd guy, said the same, and insisted the couch was leather because we had also purchased a leather cleaner from Ashley! The 3rd then told me that fibre or material is not covered under their warranty for repair either. I’m being told different things, they insisted it’s leather, which they only cover material, another tells me they only cover leather and the fibre material is not covered!
The 2nd guy said that they would send a technician to my home to evaluate and repair the couch within 7days, after 2 weeks no one contacted me. I contacted them again and they just blew me off. Didn’t even inform me that they refuse to send a technician.
I was ******* misinformed about the couch when I purchased it, ******* *** ******** **** ******* ** *** ******* * ****** **** ** **** * ***** ** **** **** ** * ******** **** ******** **** **** **** *** *** ****** ** ***** ********** ******* ********** ** ****** ** ******** **** *** ** **** *** ******* ******* ********** **** ***** ***** **** *** ******** ****** **** *** *************

Hello,
thank you for contacting us and we are sorry to hear about your experience.
Our records indicate your product is a bonded leather, and the concern you are facing is not covered under the warranty or extended warranty.
Your claim is declined

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: No where does this product label say it is leather, genuine leather or bonded leather.the customer service agent I spoke with was basing the assumption that the couch was leather on the fact that we purchased a leather cleaner around the same time so that we could clean ANOTHER piece of actual leather furniture we own.
Sincerely,
Anthony ********Business Response

Hello
Thank you for ending the rebuttal and images.
The product is still a bonded leather product and the peeling is not covered under the extended warranty coverage.
The claim is declined.

I purchased a floor model lamp **** *** ******** ****** ******** on November 5, 2022. I was told this lamp was in good working condition with no problems. I got home and a couple of weeks later used this lamp and began to have electrical issues in my home which required me to have an electrician come into my home to diagnose and repair. The electrician was able to diagnose the problem as coming back to the lamp each and every time the lamp was turned on and would cause a problem with the circuitry in the house causing a short and the breaker fuse to trip and requiring an electrician to access the electrical panel and repair and reset. Hence this lamp is unusable. I explained the issue to guest services who took down the information and later informed me that the manufacturer declined the request for a refund and therefore nothing would be done about this matter. This is completely unacceptable. Weeks prior to the purchase of this lamp, I was in the store and spent approximately $**** on new furniture, *** *** *** * ********* *** **** * *** ******* ** ****** ** ***** ** ******** ***** ***** ***** ** ********* ** **** ******* * ********** *** **** * ***** *********** I am totally disappointed that as a customer who in good faith bought a lamp I was told had no problems am now stuck with * ***** ** ******* that Ashely won’t refund.

RE: order **********
I purchased a sectional sofa on Nov. 10, 2022 with delivery scheduled on Tuesday 15th at around 9:00 a.m. I paid an extra $149.00 for "white glove" delivery service which included delivery & installation.
When the delivery men from Ashley tried bringing the sectional through the entrance doorway to my unit they tried forcing it through the door. It did not fit as it still had the packaging on it. After a while they were able to move it back, which allowed me to remove the door, which took about 3 minutes to remove the 9 screws that attached the door to the door frame. Once the door was removed the unit fit in easily.
These are professionals and the sectional did not fit in easily right away I do not understand why they did not ask to remove the door right away. In trying to force the sectional through the door, the delivery men broke the door knob to the entrance of my unit, which left it unlocked, ripped the railing off of the wall, dented the wall by pushing the door knob into it, damaged the drywall around the railing and in general left a mess for me to clean up. I called Ashley right away, but since their store is based out of Winnipeg it did not open until 10:00 a.m. on the 15th and filed a complaint. They told me that it would be investigated and I would have a resolution in 2 t o3 business days. Today is November 23rd, 9 days since the delivery and 7 business days. Ashley has not tried calling me back to resolve this problem. I paid more than $2,100 for the sectional and services.
I have since then had to buy and install a new entrance way door knob, repair the broken railing and spent hours of my time driving to stores and trying to find the correct items for these repairs and doing the repairs. Ashley does not seem to care this caused my front to to be unlockable since the door knob was destroyed. The workers expressed no guilt at causing damage to my unit. I have also had to explain the damages to my landlordBusiness Response

I received a coffee table and end table damaged right out of the box. I took pictures right away and forwarded them to the customer care team. They told me a technician would come to my house to repair them. It's been over a month now and I'm still waiting.
The last person I spoke with I told her I wanted them to just come and pick it up as I no longer want it due to the time frame I've been waiting. She told me I only had 2 business days to return it. If they hadn't of told me it was going to get repaired obviously I would have sent it back within that time frame.
Needless to say I'm paying for damaged furniture sitting in boxes. * **** ***** *** **** **** ******* ********Business Response

Unfortunately, the product has not performed well, and the service was inadequate because the side panels for the footboard and headboard are broken and both mattresses S&F ripped on the bottom, I think when they put together the bedframe and mattresses it was damaged. Because I bought the display model but, very sure have nothing damage at all products.
To resolve the problem, I would appreciate a refund for all the above listed items.
I have tried to call and text them pictures of the damaged products for Ashely guest care several times. They sent someone to look at the damaged items who took pictures and apologized for the inconvenience and said they will be calling you. I have called back and have been stuck on hold for at least 30 minutes and they hung up on me. I have been to the store in person, and no one will assist me, and tell me to just simply go call guest care.
I am very disappointed in the services provided, and my family currently does not have beds to sleep on for 3 months!

We purchased a Frigidaire Professional model ******* on August 31, 2022. The salesperson was Addis *******. The fridge worked fine at first but the light in the freezer wasn’t working. We contacted customer care and they had a technician call us and he informed us that he would order a part and then come out to look at it. Since then the entire fridge quit working altogether and we had to throw out a lot of (expensive) food. We tried speak to customer care several times and they kept promising the technician would call us but he never has. It has been over three weeks now that we have not had a working fridge. Ashley’s refuses to do anything about it.Business Response

Hi there,
My name is Jassie and I had purchased a two-piece sofa last summer from Ashley Furniture. I was on a financing term, however I continue to get charged interest on the sofa when I've already paid the full amount. I've tried reaching out to several employees who work at Ashley, but no one is able to help me out. Every time I ask to be transferred over to someone who can resolve my issue, they are unable to provide me with anyone to speak with. They say that their manager is busy or will call me back about the issue, but never do. I need to know why I continue to get charged interest for nothing and need this stop as soon as possible. It is hurting my credit and taking money that I do not owe from my account. I'm just seeking a resolution here without taking any legal action. As long as I get the interest to stop accruing and for Ashley to refund me back the money that they took from me from the time I had paid the full sofa off, I will be happy.
Thank you so much,
JassieBusiness Response
