On 8/7/2023, my husband and I went to Appliance Factory / Mattress Kingdom on ****************** Rd. in Colorado Springs. We bought a ****************** & a ****************** We bought them new & was suppose to come boxed. They were suppose to be delivered on 8/ 17/ 2023 between 3;30 - 5;30. The delivery guys got to our house at 5:45 pm that day. They first brought the dryer in to our garage, I did notice is was dirty & dusty, so I did look them over, I did not see any dents, so they put them in our laundry room. They then brought in the washing machine, they hooked them up & before leaving turned both of them on. After they left, I washed the dryer off and noticed marks in the porcelain, a scratch and other marks on the top of the dryer. It did not look brand new out of the box. I also noticed there was a dent on the bottom back part of the washer, the paint is chipping off. By the time I noticed all of this the store was closed. I called the next day and talked to the salesman that sold it to us, I told him what I found, he said he will call me back in 5 minutes. He never called me back, so on Saturday morning we went to the store right when they opened to talk to them about the situation. They told me the dryer was a ********** did not come out of a box. ***** was probably a return. They claim the dent in the washer, probably came that way from the factory. That Speed Queen would need to come out and replace the back. They sent a message to the ****** store, to see what they will do. They made it sound like, they probably won't do anything for us. We had it delivered, so if they damaged them, we would not be blamed for the damage, plus we are in our early 60's too old to be lifting appliances. I spent a lot of money on buying these new appliances, I am so disappointed I want the ************** exchanged for a new washer and dryer. I have not used the **************. We actually went to a laundromat yesterday to wash our clothes. Hoping we can get this solved.Business Response

We ordered all kitchen appliances and a washer and dryer in November. We were given a 3 week timeframe for delivery. In mid December I attempted to cancel the order twice. That is when all appliances were located. They finally delivered them in two separate deliveries on December 27. The microwave and dishwasher were not installed that day because they needed a different crew. The refrigerator was delivered with 3 dents in the door and still has not been rectified. When they came back to install the dishwasher and microwave, it was the wrong dishwasher. It has been 2 days since then, and I had to reach out to them to find out what was happening with it. They are very difficult to get in touch with. When I talked to the manager today, I discovered it was another new one. This is the third manager they have had since I purchased the appliances. The whole experience has been extremely frustrating.This is an update to my original review from January below.We finally got the correct dishwasher on January 18th. They also allowed us to exchange our washer and dryer. The new set was supposed to arrive in March, but didnt come until the end of April. The dents in the refrigerator door HAVE NOT been fixed yet. It has been since the end of December. They tell you what you want to hear, but are lacking in the follow through. They are not even returning my calls as promised.Business Response

On 11 May my spouse and i visited the store searching for a mattress. We settled on a Sealy Posturepedic hybrid. the model was not marked correctly, and the staff had trouble looking up the price and model number but eventually told us what the model was but did not have any in the warehouse. On 13 May I purchased (invoice number MW00069996) for $4,616.71. the mattress was delivered on June 3rd, and we told them this was the wrong product. we visited the store on Hune 5th and discussed the issue with the manager who stated this was not an issue and we can get the mattress replaced. Since 5 June, I have called the store manager 14 times and they only state that they are working the issue but cannot provide any updates to paperwork or process. several of their comments contradict others as to a mattress being ordered in shipment and then recently no details provided. A mistake was made during the ordering process, and we would just like to receive what we have paid for. I asked to speak to the *************************** (*******************) but she always seems to be on a conference call.Business Response

I understand missed orders and mistakes can happen, but what makes the customer want to return is how they are treated during this time. As a customer, I was extremely dissatisfied with their lack of communication. I was not able to receive any updates or resolution on the matter for over a month. Your store would not provide any information regarding the replacement order status or when I may expect it to be corrected. I would urge the senior level managers review and work on processes to improve their stores customer ********************** and most of all communication.Business Response

On September 7, 2022, I purchased a new in box Bosch side by side refrigerator and freezer for $2,401.22. This transaction included a four year service plan. I picked it up on September 10, 2022. Within a few days, I discovered the ice maker wasnt working. I called for service, the ice maker was replaced on September 28, but it still didnt work. I called for service again, and the technician came on October 3 and told me that the compressor was bad. He ordered another, which took until October 7 for Brand Source to receive. At this time, our refrigerator was still keeping food at the proper temperature. The technician came on November 9 to replace the compressor. Then, he shows me the new compressor came in a damaged box. The technician installed it, but it failed the same day. I called service again, who had the technician contact me, and he decided he should order another compressor. It took until February 2, 2023 for Brand Source to receive the part. So, this new fridge wasnt safe to keep food in for nearly three months. I complained to Brand Source, a PR person called me, I told her I wanted an exchange, she said shed have someone from the Brand Source **************** call to talk to me about this, but that never happened.Because of staffing issues, the technician was unable to come until February 13. He installed the new compressor, and the fridge and freezer was able to get food to safe storage temperatures again. The ice maker still didnt work, so the technician came back again on February 28, and discovered that the airflow within the fridge/freezer wasnt right, and that we would need an exchange. He said the fridge and freezer was a lemon. I contacted ***** to initiate an exchange or refund in March, was told ** be contacted about a decision soon. I never heard back, so I called again today, June 27, and was told that Brand Source still hasnt sent the service history to Bosch.I need a fridge that every component works as expected ASAP.Business Response

Hello ***,
I apologize for the lengthy delay in response time. I have recently stepped into this role and am currently going through all outstanding BBB complaints.
I have researched your complaint and it appears that service was completed on 5/22/23 at no cost to you. There was also a credit issued for $199.00 on 7/28/23. Did this service appointment and credit resolve your complaint?
Please let me know how I can further be of service in resolving this matter.

I purchased refrigerator Model No. FG4H2272UF Serial No. ********** from ********************************************* on May 24, 2022, and it was delivered July 1, 2022. Issues with the ice bin, standing water in storage drawers and temperature control began within the first months. I called Appliance Factory and was told to call their service contractor, Brand Source, for repairs. Beginning in September, Brand Source repairmen came out 9/16, 9/19, 10/10, 10/28, 11/16, 12/02, 12/30, 1/16 and 1/30. Due to its inability to diagnose and resolve all issues, Brand Source advised they could no longer attempt service and to contact Frigidaire. I called Frigidaire and Electrolux sent repairmen twice with the final result being there isnt a fix for the ice bin nor for the temperature control for the middle Fresh Zone Drawer. The remedy is that the refrigerator should be replaced. I was provided file # ******** for Electrolux and have called twice since March 30 but cannot get a response for status of a replacement. This refrigerator is the very definition of a lemon and I demand a refund the full purchase price of $3,211.93Business Response

****,
I sincerely apologize for not meeting your expectations. It is our hope every Appliance Factory & Mattress Kingdom customer becomes a raving fan. **** and I are advocating on your behalf. Our goal is to get Frigidaire to provide us with a Return Authorization. Manufacturers are solely responsible to provide warranty service or replacement. Appliance Factory cannot return a product without the manufacturer's approval. We are currently pressuring their regional representative to help us reach our goal. We know it is never as timely as desired but please bear with us as we work through the process. We should have a decision by the end of the week. Please keep service calls with Frigidaire.
Again, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

I am rejecting this response because it is the same excuse I have received the past two months. I purchased the refrigerator from Appliance Factory and I expect Appliance Factory to refund my money. The inside of the freezer drawer has begun frosting up and my frozen food is beginning to show frost crystals on the outside. I will also expect Appliance Factory to reimburse me the cost of any food that is ruined.

Purchased an appliance 06/19/2022, from Appliance factory. The company sent a technician to the house to install purchased stove top. He cut a hole in the Granite counter top that left a 1" gap between stove and counter. We also learned through our contact with the company, was that their technician connected the stove to an insufficient power supply, 40 amp Vs required 50 amp. We were told the wiring had to be upgraded to 50 amp to use the stove. No one told ** we would need to upgrade wiring in the house, when we purchased the stove. Now we have a stove we can't use and is too small for the hole their technician cut. Appliance Factory should pay to upgrade the wiring, or refund our money, return original stove and replace granite counter top.Business Response
