      Business Response
      Mr. ********* initial complaint took time to find service as he lives two hours away and is outside the service area of any local servicers. According to the purchase date the service would be a warranty issue and so I contacted the manufacturer, *********** for help. *********** was able to locate a servicer that could send out a technician. According to their reports all furniture was fixed to their, *********** and service company standards. Mr. ******** was not satisfied.
      Kings Great Buys Plus does not provide warranties. The first year warranty is provided by the manufacturer. Kings, as a service, helps customers with finding warranty service and filing claims. Kings Great Buys Plus has no authority to make decisions concerning warranty service or warranty decisions.
      No where in the email that Mr. ******** is referring to does it say that the warranty is Kings. It says that *********** has done all they can do and Mr. ******** wants to return the furniture and to contact him with a decision He did not like Kings decision and decided to contact the Better Business Bureau.
      I have attached the work order from Furniture Solutions, an email that recapped a conversation with Mr. ********, and the email from *********** Mr. ******** is referring to.

      Consumer Response
      (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
      I have read the attachments from King's Great
      Buys Plus King's customer service left the
      1st paragraph out lt said (consumer is calling wa
      Wanting to know what can be done At this point
      Since you sold the furniture you will need
      To contact him And see if you can come to an
      Agreement as to what you can do for this
      Customer I will be happy to help with this
      but you will need to contact him 1st as of
      this time no one at King's has called text
      Or email me so few days later I called
      *********** back customer service said she
      Thought that King's was taking care of the
      Problem they were not she said to call King's
      customer service again I did but King's customer
      Service wouldn't listen to me and disconnect
      me every time I tried to talk about the
      Problem as for the attachments the pictures
      King's sent was incorrect the service repair
      Man that came to house did (recliner springs
      new motor the motor wasn't defective) ( couch
      Springs and 1 adjusted to the recliner
      end ) (love seat Springs had a mechanism to
      be put in repair man did not put it in he said
      Wouldn't help the other frame work was bent
      It wasn't in the pictures with the one's
      that was sent repair man would taken
      pictures of him installing mechanism for
      his records
      the statement
      that said that the furniture was too
      *********** specification would be
      Incorrect also because of not installing
      the mechanism in the love seat

      Consumer Response
      All the repairs from furniture solutions
      Did not help repair the furniture All furniture
      Still has mechanism problems repair man said
      he hadn't herd of *********** furniture and
      Haven't worked on this brand my feeling was
      that he was not qualified to service this brand
      Of furniture if needed I can send copies of
      The first paragraph I wrote


      Business Response
      Mr. ******** is somewhat correct. An email from *********** was not attached to the response.
      It does say that Mr. ******** is Kings customer. It does say for Kings to reach out and see if there is an agreement we can come to. There is not. Mr. ******** has asked for a full refund for furniture he has had a year.
      Based on phone conversations with Mr. ********, part of the issue seems to be normal wear and tear. If one person normally sits in the recliner and the other on one end of the couch it is possible that the couch is not going to be level because one side is being used and one side is not. As far as the love seat, Mr. ******** said no one sits on it except for when Christmas was held at his house, last year; so the only assumption is that the issue was caused then and it was not noticed because it is not used.
      The *********** Warranty is attached with some key elements highlighted, most importantly: "Any warranty service determination will be made by Homestretch or its designated representative at the time of the claim."


      Consumer Response
      (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
      As now I cannot agree on what N ****** has
      stated in her last response as for phone
      conversation N ****** has hung up on me
      every time I have called she has never
      called nor text or message me I have been
      the one that call N ****** I have stated this
      before there was no conversation to
      resolve the problems of the furniture *****
      from *********** corporation offered T ****
      and N ****** a good deal to give me the
      money back and they could profit from the
      deal to resolve the problem with the
      furniture they refused the offer to do this
      that tells me that T **** and N ****** don't
      want to resolve this problem of the
      furniture another statement N ******
      stated if one person sets in a recliner and
      and another on the end of a couch they would
      not be level that isn't the problem with the
      couch and recliner they need mechanisms
      that would be a in correct statement on the
      couch
      and recliner as I have stated before the
      love seat has the problem of not being level
      that I also stated before as the assumption
      of setting on the love seat caused the problem
      that would be incorrect we seen the problem
      before the day that N ****** is talking
      about N ****** is not a furniture repair
      person so her assumption would all be
      incorrect as for the warranty I made a claim
      before the first year warranty was up no
      one at King's Great Buys Plus T **** and or
      N ****** hasn't suggested anything to
      resolve the problem at the time of this
      statement
