  When my bedroom set was ordered I was told there were two different ways. They make this particular model of bedroom furniture one with the less expensive one and one was the more expensive one the more expensive one come to find out the quality is inferior like really bad the slats on the bed are warped its not stable. The draws glide open and closed. They came once to analyze the issue and I was told everything is fine and then they came another time to fix a few paint chips. I am absolutely floored that theres nothing that could be done on top of it. A protection plan of some sorts was purchased as well. What I ask is for this items to be returned and get my money back. Im afraid if I order something else from them, the quality will be inferior. I was also told since this is a special order that cannot be exchanged or returned. The only reason why it was a special order is because it wasnt on their floor with that being said I would like my money back because this is just unacceptable to have such terrible quality for the price that was paid. I do not accept that and I want to pursue it many times Ive been in contact with Jennifer Furniture and I basically got the runaround and nothing came about.

  This issue with the customer has been resolved since March 2024 and the service company stated all up to manufacture standards. There is nothing we can do if there is nothing wrong with the furniture.

  Hello, this customer has made 2 purchases. The first purchase under PO# ********, the customer purchased for her daughter but her daughter did not need and customer decided to give to her son.  However, her son realized it was a regular sofa and her son needed a sofa bed.  We canceled her order under PO# ******** in which the customer forfeited a 30% restocking fee and we took the remaining fee and placed under her new order for her son under PO# ********. The customer only paid a difference of $199.99 because this is a long distance delivery to **************. The customer and her daughter both reside in *** and the delivery charge is much smaller since it is a local delivery. We did absolutely nothing wrong as there is nothng to be refunded. The only upcharge is the long distance delivery fee which is standard on all our orders for fees outside of the TriState area. Thank you.

  My purchase order is ******** on 4/28/2024 I made an online purchase of a Tess ******** L shaped Sectional Sleeper in Gray. I received an email on 6/7/24 with a receipt for the furniture and was informed on that date once you accept the furniture into your home you cannot return or replace the furniture.The furniture was delivered on Wed 6/5/24... There is a part of the furniture the "sectional" attachment that is too big and the delivery team was not able to bring it into my basement. I immediately contacted Jennifer Furniture and they collected an additional $300 dollars stating that is the charge for a "technician" to come to my home take apart the sectional bring it to my basement and complete assembly of the furniture,I paid a total of $2663.97 for the furniture, shipping, delivery and an additional $300 for the "knock down" of the sectional. I was told on 6/5/24 I would receive a call within 24/48 hours from the technician but have not received any such telephone call. Now I can only reach their voice mail and nobody has contacted me with the name or telephone number of the "alleged" technician.I also reported on the 2 seat sofa underneath the headrest, there is a tear/rip were the "stuffing" is not secured. I was told to submit a claim to Serveco.com which I have already completed under claim number ******.Jennifer Furniture should be ashamed of the way they handle business and treat customers. I want someone to respond to my concern, schedule a date to complete the assembly of my furniture and evaluate the rip/tear in the furniture. It is very suspect that they sent me a receipt for the furniture on 6/7/24... I never received a receipt for the additional $300 dollar "knock down" price and now they are avoiding my telephone calls.They need to refund me my money ASAP .. I want to warn other consumers not to purchase any furniture from Jennifer Furniture to my their shady, dismissive and irresponsible business practices. I

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

  I previously filed a complaint to the BBB (complaint # ********) against Jennifer Furniture for a sofa I purchased ( furniture order number JFW43059). I purchased a sectional living room furniture which arrived on June 5th 2024 damaged. I notified Jennifer Furniture immediately and was advised to contact their vendor Servco to file a compliant about the damages. The damages are as follows (1) the arm rest on the small couch arrived cracked and (2) there is a rip underneath the seat. I contacted ****** on June 7th 2024 and was provided with service request # ******. I followed up ****** on numerous occasions since June 7th 2024 to obtain an update regarding when they would be following up on this matter. It has been fifty-four (54) days without receiving any feedback from Servco on behalf of Jennifer Furniture. I contacted Servco today Monday 7/29/2024 and was informed Servco sent this issue back to Jennifer Furniture on Wednesday July 10th 2024 as a "delivery issue" an closed my service ticket. I was also informed by Servco Jennifer Furniture is reaching out to the delivery company. My issue here is that Jennifer Furniture advised Servco to close my ticket on 7/10/2024 and never notified me regarding what the next steps are to rectify this damaged furniture that I am making monthly payment on. It is unfair to me as a consumer to have received damaged furniture that I have to pay for. Since I did not receive any feedback from Jennifer Furniture, I do not believe they have any intention on resolving this matter. I am requesting a complete refund for the damaged furniture and would like to know how soon they can refund my money. Based on my prior complaint, I have reason to believe my concerns will be ignored and I will be given the run around. I am request assistance in resolving this matter; nobody should have to pay for furniture that arrived damaged.

  More info

  I purchased a sectional sofa from Jennifer Furniture in April 2024. I reviewed the dimensions of the entryway with their representative & was advised by them that the delivery would fit into the entryway. Upon delivery, the largest piece (sofa), would not fit. They asked that I keep the sofa section in my garage, and they would contact a technician to disassemble to sofa portion, then reassemble it once it was taken into my home. I was not comfortable with this, as they could not give me a timeline as to when the tech would come, and my garage has flooded in the past. I had the delivery men return the delivery. Jennifer Furniture then said it would arrange for another delivery, and have the technician show up the same day to disassemble and then reassemble the sofa. This was scheduled for 6/7/24. The delivery was made, and the technician that was here to disassemble then reassemble the sofa showed up a few hours later. Upon arrival, I was informde by the technician that the sofa was one piece & not able to be disassembled. I contact Jennifer Furniture & was advised that they were working on a solution. I contacted them again via chat and was advised that if I wanted the delivery returned, it would cost me an additional $1000+ for restocking fee, delivery fee, etc. I explained that if I had not be assured by their agency that the sofa was able to be disassembled & reassembled, that I would not have accepted delivery in the first place, as the sofa will not fit into any entryway in my home. I was advised that there was nothing they could do. I requested that they send me a loveseat (whicjh fits) that could attach to the sectional & they could have the sofa back. They refused. I requested a refund, and was advised of the over $1000 cost to do so. I would not have accepted delivery if I was not wrongly advised of their abiltiy to disassemble then reassemble the sofa. I believe I was deliberately misled by the agency.

  Hello, we will be reimbursing the cost of the expense the consumer paid to have someone take off window panel to bring the furniture in. Unfortunately, we do not provide these services because this is a liability issue and our delivery company's insurance company does not cover for that. Thank you.

  Hello, 

  This customers claim was turned down due to accumulation of stains. The service plan, which is attached, states that all stains or damages must be reported within 30 days from the time it occurs. Unfortunately, the customer's ******************** has accumulated stains through out the furniture - see attached photo. The claim still stands. Thank you.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because: it took the business 2 weeks to come to my house to take that photo....The incident was reported the minute it happened.  There is a stain and it needs to be cleaned. 

  I am still requesting my money back. I have never used the policy and do not trust the business to do the right thing here and hold up their end of the bargain.

  I bought a three-seat sofa for my mother from Jennifer Furniture on 3 December 2023 and it was delivered on 5 February 2024. The item we really wanted was a three-seat sleeper sofa so after contacting Jennifer on 13 February, they agreed to pick the sofa and proposed an offer that included a a restocking fee and a fee to purchase the three-seat sleeper sofa we wanted. The same day they reneged on the offer and my mother is now stuck with a sofa that she didn't want because of an innocent oversight. Here's the offer that Jennifer Furniture reneged on: Hello Makeda As per our conversation, you would like to switch the genoa sofa with the genoa sofa sleeper.We usually do not do it at this point in the order, but i will do my best as i know how upsetting it could be to have ordered the incorrect item.There will be 30% restocking fee of the merchandise.Pick up fee $499.99 And re-delivery fee $499.99 Kindly confirm this and we will be proceeding forward.Thanks ______________________________________________________Pupul Chopra Director ********** Jennifer Furniture ********************** ************ **************************

  Hello
  

  As per my conversation with the customer, she called at the time of delivery saying she is receiving the sofa and not the sofa sleeper. She agredd that she had made the mistake, i told her that i will make an exception for her and asked her to refuse the sofa and we will re order the sleeper with fees applied, she agreed to it. 
  
  Later checking with the delivery company they told us that she has kept the sofa and not returned it.
  I told het that we cannot now make an exchange as the sofa is being used in her house and we cannot take old furniture back as we cannot resell it.
  She said she didnt want to be inconvenienced by not having something until she got the sleeper, i explained to her that i will not be able to take the sofa back after being used for weeks.
  Thanks

  I ordered a convertible sofa and love seat Nov. 17, 2023 from Jennifer Furniture online for $2,723.79. I have yet to receive it and every time I call or email to ascertain when my furniture will be delivered, I am told another 4-6 weeks. I just called again today and was told at least another 2-4 weeks as there was a delay in shipping. Previously, it was a delay b/c of the holidays, then a delay with the manufacturer, now a delay in shipping to warehouse. This company is based in **************, it is unacceptable that I will be waiting 4 months for furniture that is almost paid for but not yet received. Nothing has been done by the customer service department to resolve this issue other than saying it is out of our control. You are the company, you need to take control and insure that consumers receive their furniture in an acceptable time frame and stop using excuses as to why it is not yet delivered.

  I ordered a sectional from Jennifer Furniture. We wanted to take advantage of the New Years Sale that was going on so I called the websales number and asked when the sale would be ending, the woman on the other end said in 2 hours. I said we would like to order a Bovarian Sectional but its very important that the right side while looking at the sectional be the long end, She told me what I wanted was a 3 piece right facing sofa. I asked her if we can order it, she told me I would have to order it myself online. I went to their website and picked the config and the image corresponded with what we wanted. I attached images from the website with both right facing and left facing. We then received an email with an image of the sofa we wanted, with the right side being long end, image also included. When we received the sectional. the left end was the long end. I told the delivery guys that it was the wrong sectional and showed him my confirmation order. They agreed. I received a call from the delivery service's manager while they were still at my house and he said that I can keep the couch for now and Jennifer would send the right one. Talking with Jennifer I can only speak to one person, there is only one phone number I can call ************. I am being charged close to $900 for a restocking fee, a delivery fee and a take away fee. They have told me that the images were glitches on their webpage and confirmation emails. They gave us an ultimatum whether we pay the money today or be stuck with a couch that doesn't fit in my living room. They will not accept any responsibility and will not let me speak to anyone but this one person named *****************, who claims she has no superiors. We just want what is fair, there was no way to know we were ordering the wrong sectional. They have since continued the sale and fixed the websites images. Please help us get the restocking, delivery and pick fee charge back, thank you. Order recieved 1/19/24 add money paid 1/24//24

  Hello, the customer received what they have ordered. When the furniture arrived, the customer realized they have chosen the incorrect configuration.  We will refund on what he paid for the furniture & the additional fees but we will not reorder. The customer can keep the ******************** "as-is".  The only way we can reorder the furniture is by paying to what they agreed with the director, Pupul, which was pay the restocking fees, redelivery fees and pick-up charges. Other than that, we cannot order and if the customer does not want to accept, we will reimburse the fees they paid. Thank you.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

  There was no mistake on my part. I did not realize I ordered the wrong configuration when it arrived, I was told by their sales rep on the phone  that a "right facing sofa" is the config I would want if the long end was on the right side. Their website, which I provided a screen shot, shows the item in the config that we wanted to order. Their confirmation email, which I also attached shows the right side to be the longer side. The sectional we received has the left side as the longer end. We want the couch we were told we were going to receive and we feel we are being scammed and extorted for the fees that Jennifer Furniture is charging us. We would have to be foolish to have ordered a left facing sofa after talking to the sales rep and using their online catalogue. We want the couch with the longer end to be on the right side like the pictures so and we do not want to pay for this charges. We did pay for the restocking, redelivery, and pickup fees because we want the couch and we were given a very unprofessional ultimatum by the company. It was either pay for the fees or live with a couch we did not order. Please review the images I have provided, you will see that the mistake is in the online catalogue which I would assume the sale reps also used to guide me to purchase what we wanted. Do not have them cancel the delivery of the new couch, Thank you

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

  Thank you, but this compliant is about how I am being charged for the redelivery fee, restocking fee, and a pickup fee totaling close to $900. Again, I spoke to your employee, explained to them what I wanted, who then advised me that I would want to order a "3 piece right facing sofa". I called on New Years Eve day 12/31/2023 between 4-5pm. If you have a recording of that call, please review. I also provided a screenshot of your website showing that when I click on "3 piece right facing sofa", it displays the image of what I wanted, I attached an image of what your "left facing sofa" looked like on your website as well. I also received a confirmation email with the exact image of what I wanted. Now, it may be true that a left facing sofa is what I really wanted, but how would I know that from what your employee is telling me, your website and confirmation email is showing me. You have told me that the website was a "glitch" , that the image in the confirmation email is a generic image, and you will not address that I was advise by your employee on what to buy. I do not see why I should have to pay close to $900 for this mishap. We paid for these fees a week ago at this point, with still no delivery date confirmed. This is a nightmare for me and my family. We have a sectional in our home that we can not use because you told me that it can not should signs of usage or you will not take it back. We had to cancel my wife's birthday party because we can't have anyone to the house with a sofa no one can sit on.  We want the sectional delivered as soon as possible and we want the money refunded for the restocking, redelivery, and pickup fees.
