I purchased a couch on 5/3/25 which was to be delivered on5/9/25. Before they were supposed to deliver it, they were supposed to call so I could tell them exactly where to go on our property, as there are three houses on our property and two driveways. I included the directions on how to get here, but still wanted them to call which I was assured by their customer service they would call. The day of the delivery, I received no phone call, and saw them delivering it to the main house from a different driveway that wasn’t on the instructions. My disabled husband got into our car to go flag them down, but when he got there, the driver said they wouldn’t move it to our house because it was signed for by our landlord and left. We also paid for a setup, and what we were told by the salesman a haul away of the old couch. We called customer service and were told us they didn’t have a note saying how to get there(which is a flat out lie because it’s even written on our delivery receipt- see attached photo for the email), and they’d have to come another day to set it up, they wouldn’t deliver the couch from where the took it to our house, and that the salesman lied to us and that they don’t take old furniture. We were supposed to get a call on 5/10/25 about a refund for delivery and set up, but still haven’t heard anything from them. We had to have a family member come in the 100 degree weather to move the boxes with the new couch for us. Very unhappy I paid $149 extra for horrible service, and to not be recontacted for a refund. Never doing business with them again. They are liars and thieves!!!!Business Response

I received a gift from a friend, ***** ********, back in July of 2023 (I think the actual purchase was in June) of a Milan loveseat from Bob’s Discount Furniture. A few months ago one of the sides of the loveseat stopped working, and through looking at it and investigating the problem it seems the motor on one side of the reclining loveseat has burnt out and died. It was only about a year and a half old at the point that it died.
My friend called the company and they refused to fix it except at her cost, so I got involved to fight the issue since it is my loveseat. My friend is a full-time nurse practitioner and does not have time to fight them on this issue. I called the company on May 13th, 2025 to try to reach a resolution, and after escalating up two managers, no resolution was found and the company has never returned my call or resolved my complaint. They are refusing to fix the couch unless I pay for it, but ******* Implied Warranty Law protects me from this and makes it so that they must fix this couch at their cost since it has not been abused or misused and there is no reason for the motor to have died on this reclining loveseat and it is less than four years old. I explained this and the manager I spoke to last told me that because they offer a five year warranty for purchase they are not bound by the Implied Warranty Law, which from what I’m reading in the law is completely false. I was promised another callback on 5/13 after I explained that section 4.12 of the law clearly stated that I was not obligated to buy their warranty as the couch was covered under the implied warranty, but they never did call me back.Business Response

Order # *********
Customer ID # *******
I purchased a Vanity Set and Dresser Set from Bobs Furniture Order # *********
I’ve been patiently waiting for my items and paid for White Glove Delivery.
When they delivered it, they did not ask where to have it assembled or anything. He only asked which room I prefer my items in.
Moments later, I can see from my kitchen window that they were assembling all the furniture on the concrete/asphalt outside!!
They placed all the furniture directly on the concrete/asphalt with no cardboard or towels on the bottom to prevent it from being scratched/damaged
I have videos and photos from my doorbell security camera along with my phone that I took when I went outside to confront the deliverymen about the issue
The dresser was being assembled on the concrete and with it having a tight space, I have no idea why they didn’t assemble in the house and then add the extra long handles which was going to be blocked by the door
I contacted customer service who had repeatedly asked the deliverymen to provide photos and instead the deliverymen were upset they weren’t going to finish the job so Ernie wanted to just drag the dresser down my driveway and load it into the truck
I’m genuinely upset about this scenario and have videos/photos of the incident.
Im getting upset to a point where I should post this and bring it to others attentions but its unfair to post a video of the deliverymenBusiness Response

I placed an online order with Bob's Discount Furniture on 1/3/2025 order **********, paid for "white glove delivery: for the following week. I financed the purchase through ***** leasing.

Business Name: Bob’s Discount Furniture
Complaint Type: Warranty/Guarantee Issues
Amount Involved: Approximately $2,800 (furniture + warranty)
Complaint:
I purchased a sofa set from Bob’s Discount Furniture for approximately $2,300 and was encouraged to also purchase the $250 “**** *****” warranty. A Bob’s representative assured me that the warranty would be especially helpful as a pet owner, claiming it would cover damage or stains caused by pets.
Recently, I filed a warranty claim after two parts of the sofa were ripped by my dog. To my surprise, the warranty provider denied the claim, stating that this type of damage is not covered. This directly contradicts what I was told at the time of purchase.
As a result, I now have to pay over $200 (plus tax) to replace the damaged pieces — which is an added expense I was led to believe I was protected against. To make matters worse, I was informed the replacement items are backordered and will take more than six months to arrive.
This is a clear case of misleading sales practices and poor service. The warranty was misrepresented, and the resolution offered is both costly and unreasonable. I am seeking reimbursement for the denied claim and/or a full refund of the $250 “**** *****” warranty, as it did not provide the coverage that was promised to me at the time of sale.
Desired Resolution:
• Refund of the $250 warranty OR coverage of the current damage under the warranty as originally represented.
• Improvement in warranty explanation and transparency for future customers.Business Response

On Feb.20,2025 I paid with my **** card $1,827.22 to Bob's for a bed and 2 chairs. Then they told me the 1 chair was on back order and they would deliver it it in 1-2 weeks. (the cost of that 1 chair was $345.01.) They delivered the bed and the other chair in 2 days. I waited for the 1 chair until march 14, when I went to their store to inquire for the 1 chair. they told me it would be April 15th before they could get it! so I said I want my money back for that 1 chair. they said we are crediting my **** card back for the $345.01 (to this date I have Never received that credit back on my visa-i have my statements!!). I went home and came back that same day and decided I really wanted the chair because it matches the one I did get from them. so they said they have to charge me $345.01 again in order to order it again. I said, You have never sent me the first credit back, so why do I have to Pay again? they said it takes awhile to credit my bank. so they did charge me $345.01 again on that day (March 14th) when I went back to their store,. I went back on April 15th and they told it will be delivered sometime in May!!. so on May 9th i went back again and asked for my **** to be credited for the Second $345.01, they gave me a receipt and told me it would take 8-10 days for my **** to get the credit. my last credit memo request was # ********Business Response

Good Morning BBB,
We are very sorry to hear of the concerns our customer is
having with the sectional they purchased from us here at Bob’s in February of
2022. This merchandise came with a one year warranty against manufacturing
defects that did expire in February of 2023.The **** ***** protection is a plan through a third-party company,
********. ******** covers the merchandise damage resulting from a single
accident for up to five years.We have been able to access the customers claim (Ticket number *******)
the customer did not report a one time accidental occurrence that caused this
damage, they reported when they sat down the frame cracked. Unfortunately, this
would be deemed as normal use of the furniture and not a one time accidental
damage.******** has the right to deny claims for coverage under their own
guidelines. It is never our
intent to disappoint a Customer but due to a lack of warranty with us here at
Bob’s and no covered accident reported we do not have a resolution moving
forward for this claim. Thank you for understanding.Kindest Regards,
