      Mattress, electric folding base(s), and cooling mattress protector purchased 2017.

      Original agreement was that the mattress protector would be replaced up to three times within a 10 year window. Upon trying to claim the first replacement 11/19/2022, I was informed that Levin Furniture could/would not honor this agreement (no significant reasoning).

      The young lady I spoke with on the phone was more than helpful, honest, and polite. She did nothing wrong, this is a Levin corporate issue. I was informed that they would clean the article free of charge, or I could purchase a new one at appx $300, or they would honor the mattress warranty if I chose to purchase and install a 3rd party mattress protector.

      The issue is not of a hygiene or maintenance issue. The original protector has failed and is no longer suitable to protect the mattress and has lost its "cooling" effect.

      I simply ask that the original agreement is honored and I receive an equal replacement, both in quality and functionality.

      Spoke to Mr. ****** today, mattress pad was purchased Dec. 16, 2017 under a different owner of Levin Furniture who filed bankruptcy. When the company was repurchased by Robert L**** along with
      John V S******, we would honor the warranties of the pad just not replacements.
      Customer was not aware; we offered a one-time courtesy exchange.

      On 11/4/22 I went to the store looking to potentially purchase a mattress and did with a warranty in the form of a mattress cover. At the time of purchase, I was told I had up to three days prior to delivery to return the items. In knowing this I decided to make the purchase as the delivery date was already going to be more than a week (11/12) from when I purchased the mattress and warranty. After doing more shopping the next day (11/5/22) I found a mattress I liked more and decided to purchase it. In doing so I went back to the store and attempted to get a refund for the entire amount. Once I went in there was immediate hostility and I was told I would not be allowed to return the warranty (which was in the form of a mattress cover). In which I said you told me when I purchased this I had up to three days prior to delivery and was told thats not right. They then processed my return for the mattress but refused to refund the warranty, they also refunded me only $25 to remove an old mattress when they charged over $30. I included the receipts and the refund below. I would like to be refunded the entire cost of $1,517.61 as they only refunded me $1,198.12. A difference of $319.49.

      Dear **. ******,
                When purchasing
      bedding, we do not permit return of any bedding. This is stated in the Levin
      Furniture Purchase terms and conditions that you signed at the time of
      purchase. You do have 3 days to cancel an order, but it is stated on your receipt
      that a mattress pad is a non-returnable item. At the time of purchase, you took
      the mattress pad with you. I have attached a copy of the terms and conditions. Our mattress pads are not the warranty for
      your mattress, the warranties are from the manufacturer. Our mattress pad just doubles your manufacturer’s
      warranty. We have refunded everything
      less the mattress pad cost plus tax.

      ****** ******** *******
      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.

      The response is incorrect. They told me specifically that all merchandise purchased at the time had 3 days prior to shipment to be returned. Further, their policy brochure which was attached stated the same. They did however upon review of the myriad of receipts and policies have written on the bottom of the warranty that it was "as is and no return." This is insufficient as I was told multiple times I had a period of time to return all purchased items. They deliberately included all the paperwork and receipts to cover this fact as I specifically asked, as I was still looking and made very clear at the time, if I could bring everything back. At the best this is an oversight on their part and should be refunded. At the worst this is deceptive business practices and is done to effectively steal money from customers who purchase with the intent on continuing to look for another potential product. 



      Regards,

      In June of 2021, I purchased a living room set with couch, love seat and recliner from Levin Furniture in Mentor, Ohio, Sales order # ***********. I also purchased the extended warranty for these items. Within a few months, the recliner on the sofa would not work due to the mechanism being bent. I contacted Levin Warranty department and a technician was sent out weeks later. Technician confirmed the mechanism was bent and stated that he would return in "a couple weeks" to fix the mechanism. Several weeks passed and I contacted Levin again. I was told the parts were on backorder and they would call me when it was in stock. Another few months passed and I checked in with Levin again. The agent stated that some of these parts came into stock and it would be repaired shortly. It is now almost a year since I filed this claim. I am unable to use this recliner. I contacted Levin again today and was told the part was still on backorder and they had no idea when they would be able to repair this.

      On July 6th I purchased a 3,000 sectional from levin. I had delivered on August 24th 22, to which the driver difficulties getting it into my house. I did not unwrapped the poorly wrapped couch because the room was not ready for the item. A week later I unwrapped it to find it was damaged in several spots. I immediately called levin to which they said they start a claim and to Email photos, after a week without a response I called again, they claim they never received photos. Sent them again. Finally on 9-27 I received a call back wanting to set up a repair tech appointment. I told I don't feel it's right for a repair that I would like a replacement, only to be told policy is 48hours after delivery for replacement. Only choice is a repair. I asked for a discount on bill, again that isn't within their policy. I will never recommend nor buy from this company.

      Our policy for damaged merchandise must be reported with 3
      days of their delivery. Customer did not have drivers open due to remodeling
      going on in home. Merchandise was delivered on Aug. 17,2022 and damage reported
      on Sept 7, 2022. Customer was asked for photos. After review of photos it was
      determined to exchange the merchandise. Customer was called and we will schedule exchange once merchandise comes in.

      I took my elderly mother to Levin Mattress in Mt. Pleasant, Pa on Monday, July 25, 2022. The sales lady who helped us was Misty J*****. She is a very nice girl and did a great job. We picked a mattress that came with a bonus of a $300 gas card that was to be given to me after delivery was made. The day of the purchase Misty went to her manager, Sue, to get approval to give me this gas card offer which she did. There were ads all over local tv about this promotion going on but, in the store, there was confusion of whether or not it still was. They finally conceded it was going to be honored. As late as Labor Day weekend, Sue called me to inform me that everything was a go, and I would be getting a code via email to claim the gift card. Today, 9/23/22, I called the ***** ****** *******, ###-###-####, to just see where my code was, and they informed me that LEVIN STILL HAS NOT SUBMITTED THE INFORMATION TO THEM TO PAY ME OUT THE $300 FUEL CARD!! I called back to Levin immediately and asked for Sue, but she is off. I asked the lady, Heidi, who answered the phone to HAVE THIS RECTIFIED TODAY IN STRONG TERMS. I do not feel this is proper of that business to have a promo running like this and here we are almost 2 months later with no resolution.

      his selection.

       Customer purchased an adjustable base reimbursement warranty
      on May 23, 2015. This warranty is for 10 years. The customer is responsible to
      pay for any parts or labor within the warranty period and submit the paid invoice
      to Levin Furniture at **************@**************.com for reimbursement. I have attached a copy of our Levin Platinum Protection
