    I purchased a chair, total cost 300.00. Had to stay at home to wait for delivery, which I understand. Truck arrives and it is the wrong chair. Delivery has to be reset, no one said sorry, would not refund 29.00 delivery fee for my inconvenience, not even said they were sorry, I cancelled order.

    The WORST furniture you want to buy. Very POOR QUALITY. I bought a bed set along with the living room and dining room furniture 15 months ago. The salesperson highly suggested to me to purchase the protection/insurance plan called Goof. I paid $150 extra for the insurance. She stated that the insurance will cover all accidental damages.

    I sat on the edge of the bed a few days ago and the side rail broke right in the middle. That’s the piece that holds the bed frame together. Now the bed is tilted. I called Bob’s first. They said they cannot do anything 'cause the one-year store warranty has already expired. They said I should call Goof and report a claim, which I did. Three days after I placed the claim, I received an email informing me that the insurance would not cover the damage as the bed got broken during the normal use (it is not an accidental damage). I can’t believe how they tricked me to buy the stupid insurance. Lesson learned. DON’T BUY POOR QUALITY FURNITURE FROM BOB'S AND CERTAINLY DON’T BUY THE INSURANCE WITH IT. IT’S WASTING MONEY!!!!

    I had a bad experience with my recent order. I had to return my items due to the package/box size would not fit through my condo stairwell. I was also told by the delivery guys that I would not be refunded the $250 delivery fee. The deliver guys advised me to lie and just return the item due to a change of mind, and not mention anything about the size of the packages. I had advised the delivery guys to open the box and assemble the items upstairs, and they did not want to do that. If they had opened the box, the items would have easily fit through the stairwell.

    That being said, I finally called the store and after waiting over an hour on the phone, I finally got a hold of the store manager. He did give me 100% refund, so I am giving a 2 star rating, instead of 1 star. That being said, the products are decent and affordable, but be sure to ask for measurements of the actual shipping box, and not the items, else you will be in big trouble. I finally ordered my item from another store, and they agreed to deliver the items open box and wrapped in plastic. It will fit 100%.

    Had an absolutely horrible experience with Bob's Discount Furniture! Never did we expect or even imagine such obnoxious delivery standards & such sub-standard product quality. We bought 3 big pieces of our home furniture in Natick MA showroom last Sunday, which was promised to be delivered to our home today! Not only did we pay in cash for all the items (which were worth thousands of dollars), but we also paid in full for delivery and assembly charges.

    The package when arrived, the delivery men were ill-mannered, reckless and handled our furniture badly while trying to get it up to my apartment. In turn, my sofa got torn in 5 areas, my bed headboard got a chip mark in 2 places!! We ultimately spoke to the customer service and returned it all back. We never really wanted to return anything, but the substandard torn products and especially the delivery man (Fabio) behavior, just made me decide not to purchase any further with Bob’s. Never expected such harassment!! Really disappointed!

    I purchased a chair from Bob's and the salesperson lied about how to clean the chair (was told to put cushion covers in wash machine). Lied about how to submit claim (was told to wait until dirt and grime built up because you can only submit one goof proof claim, yet have learned that you can only file a claim against one single stain). When I spoke with a supervisor he told me first there was nothing they would do for me, and two they receive daily complaints about salespeople deceiving people, yet nothing is being done. Don't shop at Bob's. The low prices are not worth the inferior products and horrible customer service they provide.

    Paid over $300 for white glove delivery of a bedroom set. They didn't want to take all pieces to the bedroom, then refused to place where I asked stating it would not fit (I moved into place no issues). They did not fully unpack and draws and doors did not function properly. They left before I could inspect so I had to set up a 2nd appointment to have it corrected. They broke a picture in my home and left packing material on my front lawn. They came prior to the time frame they gave me when they called me multiple times 2 days prior.

    Bob's refused to give a full refund even though they did not do their "white glove delivery" stating against their policy to give a refund. They offered a $100 store gift card, as if I would shop there again. Interesting how they can break their policies when it meets their needs (delivery policy) but not when it is for the good of the customer (refund policy).

    Bought a leather couch in January for a good amount of money. The salesperson said it was the best leather they had. After four months the seat started to show wear and discoloring. I called store then the extra protection plan, then store and sent pictures and each time they my claim was declined. They said material is not under the one year warranty or the five year protection plan. I would advise not buying from Bob's because they do not stand by their warranties and their furniture does not hold up to everyday use. Really bad that they have so many bad reviews and we can’t do anything about it.

    The delivery person (Armando **) came to my home to deliver furniture. He came with an attitude that he wasn't going to be able to bring the furniture in the house. I asked him how high or long it was and with his hands said, "About this high." I said, "In inches how high is it?" He became more aggravated. I told him I can look it up on the internet through your web page. He then told me that if he was to bring it thru the back they would just drop it off in the kitchen cause we had a threshold delivery, and that what we payed for and that's what we are getting.

    He made a call and I talked to the management of the delivery company or I thought it was and she also bluntly told me the same thing. I wasn't informed of that or I would of paid what I needed to do to get my furniture in the door. I then told him to wait and I would call the store and pay the difference. He then said he is to take 15 min to deliver and that's it. I was up until 3am last night getting everything ready. But at this point I became aggravated. As a former, Supervisor and Manager of a major electric company I could see that this person just simply didn't want to do his job. So I told him to take the ** furniture back. He call me an ** and said for me to go back to sleep. If I had an employee who treated a customer like that I would see that he was reprimanded and given time off.

Again after multiple calls 3 more items were scheduled to be delivered on 06/07/2019. Since no one showed up on 06/07 and no calls were received to confirm delivery window, made multiple calls only to be told the items are not going to be delivered till Aug end. These thugs charged little over $1300 on 05/07 for the product showing available online only to be told after a month I have to wait 3 months!! Are they kidding!!

    I ordered a couch off of Bob’s a month or so ago and set a delivery of June 4 (Tuesday) for Boston, MA. I received a call on June 1 confirming my delivery date. On the automated call I received confirming deliver, they stated the correct street address but INCORRECT city and state. I immediately called to clarify and get that resolved (after being on hold for 45 minutes). I was then reassured multiple times the correct address was inputted and that I was still all set for a Tuesday delivery in BOSTON.

    On Monday I got a text message confirmation for Tuesday morning time slot. Again, I checked the address and everything was completely correct. Tuesday morning I wake up at 6:30 am with every expectation that my couch is arriving. I check the routing information and again, the address is correct. What isn’t, however, is the location the truck appears to be located in. The tracking information shows it’s in NYC.

    As you probably could assume, my delivery was cancelled. I immediately called and it took over an hour on hold to be put in touch with a supervisor. Not only was I not openly offered compensation for their blatant glitch in their routing, but they are unable to do anything in the way of guaranteeing a future delivery date. I took off work today for this couch, and all they’re saying is that I can be added to the delivery orders as an “add on” for tomorrow but that there’s no guarantee for anything.

    Customer service doesn’t exist whatsoever and I will NEVER be getting anything from bobs again. I have never dealt with a more incompetent and rude furniture company in my life. They have made no effort whatsoever to fix the issue that they’ve created. I cannot afford to take work off for the rest of the week hoping that by some miracle it arrives. DO NOT order furniture from Bob's.

    Requested return of power base with mattress purchased for my 91 y/o father in hospice care at home because he required a hospital bed frame with rails. Scheduled initial pick up and delivery team never showed after sending 30 min arrival text because they were confused about an exchange note on account. Second attempt delivery team picked up Mattress only because Supervisor I spoke with to reschedule the pick up after the first fail never put in the order for pick up on the power base. Meanwhile my father is stuck with this base in his bedroom... Unbelievable. There is no flexibility when they have continued to make errors. Third attempt... We will see if they are able to get it right. Although I have to wait another 4 days. :( Very poor performance with handling returns.

    I went to Bob's looking for couches and found a massage chair. Kyle, the asst mgr, told my mom and myself it has a 5 year warranty. Upon payment I was asked to purchase the 5 year warranty. I asked for Kyle to come back to speak to me but was told he’s helping a customer on the phone. I said I would wait. Then the store manager came over and I explained it to him. He went to the back and talked to Kyle. As I watched Michael and Kyle talk and as Michael talked to me, Kyle was never on the phone. They are flat out lying for each other. Do not trust the staff at Bob's in Naperville, Illinois. I emailed corporate and they stuck with the manager's story and did nothing but say how they went over warranty items on their inventory. I have the email from corporate as evidence of their "we don't care about the customers" response to me. Let the buyers beware if dealing with Kyle or Michael, the managers in Naperville, Illinois.

    We bought a bedroom set from Bob’s, even after reading all the bad reviews... Well now we are one of those bad reviews. I love the style and look of the bedroom set we bought except that they are falsely stating that a certain bed frame works for all beds. Maybe they don’t understand sizes? Anyway, the first issue I had was they sent the wrong size bed rails, which I didn’t notice until I built the bed (ugh). I have a California King mattress and they gave me “Queen/King” bedrails. I called Yon (salesperson) who is lovely to deal with and he fixed the issue and the new bed rails are being delivered. That’s no longer the issue...

    When I explained that the headboard and footboard were for a King mattress, not California King, the manager told him they are “interchangeable” between King/Cal King. Now if you own a Cal King you know there is no way they are interchangeable. So now I have this bed frame where there’s TWO inches on EACH SIDE where you see the slats and feet/toes can easily get stuck because this company is a cheapskate and falsely advertising that it comes in Cal King size when it doesn’t. But the pictures on their webpage show it should be flush against the bed. My next issue is that I posted a review on their website for this bed frame, explained to not purchase if you have a Cal King bed, but then they deleted it. They won’t allow bad reviews on their own website which is shady and I will not shop there again because I don’t deal with people who aren’t honest.

    Bob’s Discount Furniture tried to deliver my couch 3 times to Hershey Pa which is over an hour from my house. I called several (at least 6 times) and despite speaking to managers no one was able to correct the issue and get my furniture delivered to my house. Not only this but one of their supervisors (Brandon) was very indignant telling me that despite me calling several hours in advance of my delivery to inform them that the tracker showed the delivery going to Hershey for the third time, he said that he "couldn’t tell the future and I would just have to track the delivery all day and call back when the truck was at the house before mine to report that there was an error." Which I did and for the third time management told me that I would have to reschedule and waste more hours of my life to see if the issue could be fixed.

    I canceled my order and went to another furniture store who correctly delivered my couch on time within 3 days. Their customer service is horrific. The final person I spoke with - Melissa - said she did not blame me for canceling my order and the issue was that my order kept getting routed to the warehouse in Hershey instead of where I live and not one person did anything to correct it.

We paid for 5 years extended warranty, after 1 year all the furniture started collapsing and both the insurance company and Bob Furniture refused to fix them. I bought from Ashley and Raymour and Flanigan and both were extremely professional and credible unlike the Bob that has the worst quality and a fake insurance.

    Horrible experience. These people are idiots. I’m seven months pregnant and have been sleeping on the floor the past two weeks. They’ve come here twice and with the wrong parts. They call you the day before and expect you to be available when they want. Then when you become available they come before their scheduled time. Their goof proof is something their own employees purchase because they don’t trust the products they sell. If you look under most beds on display most are broken. My bed broke in five months and I spent well over one thousand dollars. No one helps you when they mess up they just keep saying they are sorry and that they want to reschedule. The frustration I’ve experienced through this pregnancy is not worth the money and past two weeks of being without a bed. Stay away from this company.

    My husband and I bought a new bed from the Woodbridge Va store and were told how wonderful the delivery experience would be. From taking away our old bed and box springs and fully setting up our new bed, we wouldn’t have to lift a finger! They never told the delivery men to be prepared to take away our old bed. The delivery men told me they could leave our old bed on our front lawn! I said no, absolutely not. If they couldn’t take the old bed then I was going to cancel the order.

    I asked them to wait before moving anything while I called customer care. They started to move our bed out anyway and when I asked them if they were the old bed and they said no. Customer care then told me that they don’t have to take the old bed if it’s not in the delivery notes.

    I told them to put my old bed back and return the order. In the process of moving my bed they put a long deep scratch in the wood floor of our bedroom. My husband said customer care said they would tell them to take the bed anyway and so I then asked the driver to wait a minute for customer care to call and the driver said ok...then just left.

    I ordered the Emory-Pink full bed with the delivery and set-up. I spoke with customer service twice about the need for a box spring, because the description online was not definitive. The agent put me on an extended hold to research my question, but the response was taking so long that the agent came back online and I asked him to call me when the answer came in. Within the hour, another customer service representative called to inform me that the bed did not require a box spring. I reiterated to be sure I had the response correct. At that time, I canceled the box spring that I had ordered from another source. Today, my bed was delivered. The full delivery and set up, which I paid for, could not be accomplished because, you guessed it, there was no box spring--only four wooden slats--for the mattress, so my mattress is still in a bag next to the unusable bed. I am, of course, disappointed that I have to waste more time correcting a Bob's error.

    I have been trying to get a power recliner chair repaired for my mother who is in a assisted living facility. The repair technician never ordered the necessary part. The store manager in Bridgewater said he would have the part expedited on 5/13. I inquired today, 5/15 again and still no definitive answers or date that the chair will be repaired and the manager said he had no ability to expedite a part! This is a medically necessary chair for a 100 year old woman. Bob’s does not care about customer service and do nothing to resolve issues. My mother’s quality of life depends on this chair and Bob’s is unwilling to resolve this matter.

    Customer care department told me the technician cannot use his own phone to call in a report if the chair cannot be repaired because he has to move on to the next customer but he can call from my mother’s phone. When I told them she does not have a phone I was told he cannot make a call from his phone because he has to move on. Why can’t you make exceptions and do what is right for the customer. What difference which phone is used, it will take the technician the same amount of time. In short do not buy from Bob's if you expect excellent customer service because there is none.

    I am sorry to say that I purchased the Goof Proof plan with promises of fixing my sectional should it get a rip or the foam lose its support and we received absolutely nothing in return.

He agreed it was in bad shape and Bob's did NOTHING about it.

    I don't have anything at all nice to say about this place, but will keep it to the point. The journey first started when we bought a couch from there - delivery drivers kept rescheduling so we canceled our order and went to Raymour instead, thankfully. We decided to give Bob's another chance for our dinette set. What appeared to be great quality is complete garbage. The table sitting at my home for only 2 months is already showing signs of wear? How is that possible?

    I bought furniture from Ashley and Raymour and neither of which is showing any kind of wear. No, we did not purchase Bob's Goof Proof coverage for table that was going to be lightly used. Mistake #1. Well this past Easter we use the leaf of our table - take it out of the package to find it completely destroyed. Moral of the story - the discounts are not that big and the quality is not there whatsoever. Take your money and literally run. I will never return nor will I give this place a good review. We tried and just had a bad experience both times. One of which we are literally stuck with a pile of crap in our kitchen. The table is the Sonoma Set.

    I didn't want to spend a lot of money on this furniture so the price was right at Bob's. Salesman and customer service were excellent. Delivery men were polite and even took off their shoes because it was raining. Only problem is that the doors on the furniture are hard to open because of the type of latches. Also one door is about 1/4 inch higher than the other. Besides that I love it. Just don't expect to get a cheaper price and a higher quality.

    The company finally agreed to offer us a new sofa.

    Original Review: April 18, 2019

    I purchased a chofa in January. I have had it for less than 3 months and the cushion cover on the chaise part of the chofa split wide open. I have contacted Bob's and been called back twice. First I was told I would have to wait until August for a new cushion cover. Then I was told that you would replace the chofa in May. Yesterday I received a call and was told that you no longer offer the chofa, so I would have no choice but to wait until August for a cushion cover?!?! Are you kidding?? This is totally unacceptable. Less than 3 months old and Bob's will not exchange the chofa or help me in any way at all. I have never had this kind of lack of customer service anywhere else. DO NOT buy anything from Bob's.

    This is a horrible place. Do not buy from Bob's Furniture. The stuff looks really nice but it is made horribly. We bought a sectional from them 2 years ago and the seams kept ripping everywhere. They replaced it a few times and now the entire upper pillow ripped down the seam and the technician came out and said it's not a manufacturer defect so they will not fix or replace it. It is the same issue that we had every other time but now they won't take care of it. Their Customer Service is horrible as well. Buying from Bob's was the worse purchase I ever made in my life. It's not even worth one star.

    We are on our 3rd couch from Bob's. Every couch has had manufacturer's defects. We again have a defective couch. The cushions are higher on the right facing couch than the other 2 pieces. Before that it was a custom sectional that I waited 5 months for. That had defects as well & the recliner had an electrical short. So, we order the couch that is in our home now. Another custom color with manufacturer defects. They told me to pick out another & to stay away from custom orders. So I picked out another leather couch & loveseat. Bob's had promised a white glove inspection 5 times! (Which Never happens.)

    I have spent hours upon hours on the phone with Bob's. Spend hours upon hours for delivery only to have the couch go back. Today was the 6th attempt for delivery. They came again today & the stitches were busted & there was a scratch on the armrest. I had asked for a refund so I could take my money & go elsewhere. They refuse to give me a refund. The mental stress & anguish this company has caused me is ludicrous & unnecessary. If someone would do their job & make sure I would receive nondefective furniture this could all be avoided.

    I bought a Console, an end table and a coffee table. One of the Console drawers wouldn't close all the way and a repair guy came and fixed it. It wouldn't close flush again and another repair came and supposedly fixed it. It's still not flush. The first end table had manufacturing defects. The second replacement was worst than the first so I kept that for another replacement. The third replacement was ok. The first two coffee tables were defective the delivery guy had me look at the table before it was put together and the back had two manufacturing defects, I called Bob's to complain about it and the delivery guy left the table and I waited for another hopefully the final replacement.

    This time I knew the guys were bringing the table 4/16/19 but they didn't call me with a time. They came at 8:30 am without notification. All the other delivery times they called me way too many times. I had seven calls one time, thirteen calls another time, and three calls another time. One repair 4/13 and One delivery I didn't get any arrival time calls. This last delivery there were three guys - one ** guy Alex who was very professional, one Hispanic guy Eduardo who seemed to be in a hurry and another Hispanic guy who came in when the table was finished. He and Eduardo were speaking Spanish and I heard the word **. I know that's a derogatory word but I don't know what they were talking about. I hope they weren't referring to me because I've never been nor will I ever be **.

    Me and my husband purchased a bedroom set from Bob's discount store in Glendale, N.Y. I must say that their delivery method is horrible. Made the purchase in February. I got my dressers and night stand delivered with no problem. Now when it comes to the bed it was a whole different ball game. I had to wait 2 weeks after I received my dressers for the matteress Alone. Then I had to wait a month after until they would deliver the bed frame itself.

    Fast foward to March 9, 2019. The day of delivery the delivery men just come with the rails. I'm like, "Are you kidding". I told them to take that crap back because I'm not going to receive rails with no headboard and no footboard. Then they won't be able to set up my bed. I called up customer service and they told me that I had to wait another month to receive everything.

    Now the day of delivery which is today April 9, 2019. The delivery men come with just the head board and foot board but no rails!! I tell you this is thee worst furniture store that I ever ordered from. Their delivery method is very disorganized. I don't understand how they could screw up twice.

    Purchased what looked like a beautiful set. Salesman was very nice, hence the 1 star. Furniture was damaged from the beginning. The bed came damaged, and had to be replaced. Dresser and nightstand were scratched. Since we purchased the extra protection ($199) we would have expected more than someone coming and painting in the scratches with a marker. About 6 months ago, the bed literally fell to the floor! My son is 15, and does not jump on his bed. Technician came and said the screws were too short and not enough. He drilled holes and added new screws. The bed lasted a couple of months, until it happened again! This time, I took pictures and sent them asking that the bed be replaced since my son now didn't even want to sleep in it for fear of falling.

    Bob's "thorough investigation" found that they were not obligated to fix or replace the bed! We are still covered under Bob's "Goof Proof" extended warranty. We persisted, speaking to a rep named David who told us that "he thinks it's normal wear and tear and that, yes, a bed could reasonably be worn out in under 4 years!" Hours of phone calls led us to supervisor Jessica who actually looked at the pictures and agreed with us that this was a faulty manufacture. She said she was putting a claim in for replacement. We never heard another word. The next phone call brought us back to square one....not their problem! I finally bought a new bed elsewhere. After reading other reviews, I guess I was lucky to get almost 4 years out of this bed. Complete waste of money.... Hope I can stop even one person from making the same mistake we did.

He reported that indeed the chairs were faulty and would communicate same to Bob's. I heard nothing for 3 weeks. I emailed them and asked what's up? Their computer-generated form-letter response was they would take no responsibility as the chairs were just showing normal wear and tear!

    The experience with the sales team was great. Me and my husband got a Dining table set with 4 chairs and a bench, a king bed, dresser, mirror, chest and one nightstand. All the furniture was set to be delivered on 31st March except the dresser which they informed will come on 9th April. On the morning of 31st March, we got a call from Depot that they forgot to load the headboard of the bed on the truck and the truck left without it. We said it was ok and can arrange the king bed assembly later which was decided for 3rd April.

    The delivery team that came on 31st March was extremely rude and intimidating. They taunted on us, laughed on us for I don’t know what. We offered them sodas and snacks to eat instead of them being so rude to us. However, one of the chair was broken, nightstand was completely broken, chest broken. They didn’t assemble or open the bed at all as the headboard was not there. Worst experience with the first team.

    Fast forward to 3rd April, our headboard arrived and bed gets assembled. Previously, I called Bob’s customer care to let them know I don’t want the same team to come. They made sure to fulfill the request. Bed is done and we see the headboard left side top piece is completely cracked and the whole piece is chopped off. The drawer alignment is wrong. So again, going through the whole process of calling them and rearranging.

    Today, 5th April, new headboard arrives. Everything is done. The headboard is wobbly and I told the guy why is it so wobbly. He says, that’s how it will always stay. I saw 2 minutes later that there is a loose screw and that they didn’t fit it properly. So, in disdain and completely disappointed I call the customer service again. The lady on the phone was extremely rude and ruthless in handling the complaint. She didn’t apologize even once for the inconvenience they are causing us. The whole experience was very rude and inconvenient.

    Now, waiting for another 2 deliveries from them. I just expect them to NOT TO SEND BROKEN FURNITURE ANYMORE. They have poorest delivery standard, poorest protection of furniture transportation, poorest customer service. They’re not going to last long enough if they continue the same way.

    You must understand that when you go to a cheap two-bit company like Bob's you should not expect to get a.) quality furniture b.) quality customer service. I should have known better than to buy from here, but the pricing was very enticing. But you get what you pay for, within less than 2 years our sofa broke. We purchased the warranty program for the furniture (which honestly makes no difference) and had to fight for several months, and multiple visits from their "knowledgeable" technicians for them to finally agree that it was a manufacturer's defect and that they'll agree to replace.

    This was after about 30 separate calls, with all different customer service reps who never record any information from the calls, so basically you start from square one each time, and nothing gets accomplished. We had moved addresses after purchasing the furniture and had told the reps on more than 5 occasions to update our address, but to no avail. After a long battle with Bob's (who claims to pride themselves on customer service) they begrudgingly decided to ship us a new couch.

    Come the day before delivery and I receive a text saying they will be delivering the new couch to our OLD address, which was clearly explained to be an old address and had provided the new one. So I spent about 4 hours today on the phone with some real "top notch" service reps who told me there's nothing I can do, and that they have to reschedule the delivery... forcing me to take yet another day off of work as a result of their incompetency. Save yourself the incredible headache, and just spring the extra cash to get quality furniture from another company.

    My wife and I purchased a bedroom set which included a king bed and headboard, dresser and two nightstands. We also ordered a rocking recliner at the same time. We also paid for delivery and setup as well as the goof coverage. The bed set was delivered within the week, which was nice. But the delivery crew made a huge mess of our room and the front porch. There were cardboard and styrofoam to clean all over. Before the crew left I checked the furniture and didn’t see any obvious problems so I signed the tablet and they went. A few minutes later as I was making the bed, I noticed a divot in the wood of the headboard. I made a mental note about it and then finished making the bed. Keep in mind this bed-set was the only real wood furniture that Bob’s sold. It is 100% mahogany.

    I then moved on to the dresser to fill the drawers. When I went to open one of the drawers a piece of the glide rail dropped out and fell to the floor. That was three strikes, so I immediately called customer service. A woman picked up who likely had a cold. She coughed in my ear a few times before I asked to speak to someone else. I feel sorry she had a cold, but a customer service person should always consider the person on the other end of the phone. When I asked to be transferred, she said: “hang up and call back!” So I did, reluctantly.

    The next person I spoke with apologized for the frustrations. And set up to have a “technician” come out to see the headboard and dresser. He came a few days later and wanted to use a wood filler pen on the headboard. A brand new headboard that should have no divots in wood. I declined the filler pen and asked for a headboard replacement since it’s brand new and came with the divot. He called his manager, and it was approved. He moved on to the dresser to say he had to order a new glide rail. Something I already knew and told customer service. So they could have saved a trip there too. The new headboard came a few days later, and the wood is ok. But part of the headboard, where your head would be, is loose on one side. It’s not bothering us too much, so we are just dealing with it... for now. We have the goof protection so we will bring it up with Bob’s customer service.

    Finally, the chair arrived. It came in 2 pieces and is comfortable. After one day of rocking our child, its springs make a creaking pop noise when you rock up and down. It’s very noticeable when the room is quiet, but not when the TV is on. It’s almost two months later from delivery at the time I’m writing this. We are still waiting in the glide rail to arrive so it can be installed and the dresser can be used. I’m about to follow up with them to get a status and report the new headboard issue and the chair issue and to find out about the compensation I was told I’d be getting due to all these troubles. One thing for sure is I’ll never buy from Bob’s again.

Called the number on the warranty paperwork to file a claim and sent pictures of the damage via email. We were told that the damage was not covered because it was not accidental damage but normal wear and tear. So basically, we were fraudulently sold an additional warranty when Bob’s obviously knew this type of fabric would not hold up and they would not have to make good on our claim. The salesperson never said normal wear and tear was not covered. Had the damage occurred after 5 years it would be understandable as furniture does wear out but this chair is not even 3 years old.

First, the night before my furniture was delivered, I received a call from the store at 2030, an hour and a half before they closed, stating that I would not be receiving my headboard and footboard to my bedroom set because they did not get the shipment they were expecting from the vendor. During that phone call, not only did the manager I spoke to never apologize for the inconvenience after I chose to spend thousands of dollars with their company, he kept saying this almost never happens.

    Since doing my own research into Bob's after having to deal with that, I have discovered that was a lie; this has happened to plenty of people with a now negative opinion of Bob's Discount Furniture. I receive the rest of my furniture the following day and another piece to my bedroom set, the chest, is damaged. I set that up to be exchanged when I get my head and footboard on March the 22nd and today I receive a phone call saying once again they did not receive the shipment from the vendor that they were supposed to. If I was not officially moving into my apartment in 2 days, I would send everything back and get a refund. I have been inconvenienced twice by this company.

    Buyer beware when it comes to Bob's Discount Furniture, bought a bedroom set 2 months ago. 5 deliveries later 2 repairs later they finally canceled the mirror which matches the set. The customer service is horrible. The warehouse is horrible, they actually called me to cancel an order at 9:30 pm on a Thursday night. I will never purchase another item from them and will tell everyone I know to beware of their practices.

    Worst furniture company you will ever go to. I get it. Delivery was supposed to get it delivery today for my living room set. I'm in a building when a 24 hour doorman. I move in today. Not only do they not come to my house they said they did. They left even though the domain was looking out for them and now they're not coming back. They tell me I have to wait a week. I asked if the drivers come back. Eddy the manager the delivery company no help. Will not send the drogs back to me. Do not shop at this store. Pay a little bit extra to go somewhere else because you will not get your furniture and you will be so much heartaches. Delivery company number is 7322274144. They refused to send driver back, Bob's Discount Furniture on Flatbush Ave no help. Now have to wait another week and I have no furniture now. Ughhh beware stay away...

    On 23 Feb 2019, I visited Bob's Discount Furniture store at Saugus, MA and bought in total 14 items. Most of the items were delivered to me on 27 Feb 2019 except the Lily comforter set which was delivered to me on 05 March 2019 via FedEx. The problem started from this point as the sales representative told me that the comforter set will be delivered to me on 27 Feb 2019 but that was not the case. On the delivery date on 27 Feb, the delivery guy told me that they are not going to assemble the two lamps I brought from them as they are not supposed to do it. There exists many problems with the delivery and the service that I am going describe in detail below.

    1. After the delivery on 27 Feb, when I opened the lamps at night, one of the lap was damaged along with one matinee side table. I called the customer care service at that moment to let them know about this. The customer service representative put up an exchange request for me and told me that the next available date for exchange was after 7 days. First of all you guys are delivering damaged products in the name of Bobtastic delivery at a charge of $300+ and then let the customer wait for 7 days for an exchange of an item! I complain about the wait time and the representative also noted it down in my file but there was no follow up after that. What a pathetic service.

    2. After 7 days, again the delivery team came to exchange the items. They fixed the side table and handed over a new lamp. They even assembled it but when I tried to start it at night, I again saw a dent/damaged mark in the lamp. It was mostly due to the transport of the item. So, I had to call the customer service again and had to wait for more than 1 hour.

    3. By the mean time, I had also received the comforter set. When I opened the comforter set, I saw one of the item, i,e., bed skirt is missing from the package. The set should be of 10 items but I only received 9 items except the bed skirt. So, I even doubt whether the item I received is a new one or used one. Who knows that as one of the item from the package itself is missing.

    4. I again called the customer service to let them know about these two things. After waiting for an hour, one lady received the call and told me that they will exchange both of the items again. She told me that the exchange of the lamp will going to be on 12 March 2019 and the comforter set on 19 March 2019. I was totally frustrated at that moment and asked the representative to connect me to a customer service manager but she did not. She told me that all managers are busy at that moment. I even called the Saugus store from where I purchased the items to talk to a manager but they directly told me contact customer service for this. If you guys can not provide service to the customers, why are you selling the items at the first place.

    5. During the mean time, I also noticed there are two marks on top of the night stand I purchased from them. I called the customer service again to file a complaint and they told me that one service agent will come to inspect this. After around 5 days, one service agent came to my home on 08 March 2019 and took some photos. He called to the customer service from my phone to let them about the current situation. However, no one received the call and after waiting for 13 minutes on the call, the service agent left without fixing anything. The agent told me that someone will call me within 1-2 days but nobody contacted me regarding this.

    6. Today, on the day of 12 March 2019, the lamp was supposed to be exchanged as per my last service request (see point 4). However, till 3 pm, I did not hear anything from the service team. So, I called them again to ask about this. One lady after receiving the call told me that there is no request for exchange today. How pathetic it is? She told me that someone from a different team received my last call and did not put up an exchange request. How can someone in the customer service even do this?

    I thought there is no point in arguing with the lady. So I told her to put up a new request for exchanging the lamp on 21 March 2019. After this, when I asked about the damage in the lamp, she just sent me an email for sending the pictures. If I am going to send the pictures again and follow up with this, then why did the service agent came and took the pictures at the first place. After the night stand, when I asked the comforter set, she connected me to the right person who handles the service related to comforter set. The guy over phone told me that I have to sent it back though FedEx and this is the only way that works for comforter. If this is the only way, then why did the service representative earlier told me that they will do the exchange on 16 March 2019. Can someone please explain this?

    The guy after putting me in line for about 15 minutes, told me that there is some problem in the server and he will not be able to send the shipping label now. He is going to call me tomorrow to send me the shipping label. At this point, I even requested him to connect to a service manager but again got the same reply. Only one manager is there and ** is currently busy, so can't talk to me. Anyway, I am totally frustrated with the service/deliver and will never going to buy anything form Bob's Discount Furniture in my life time. This is by far my horrible experience with any business unit in USA. I do not have any more patience to call your pathetic customer care again and again.

    We bought this sofa before the super bowl on Jan 27 Sunday 2019 from Natick store. They shipped it the following Wednesday. This was the WORST EXPERIENCE any customer can imagine. The truck driver knocked the basked ball poll in our front yard with his truck. We were shocked to see that Bob’s hire such clumsy people to deliver their furniture. On top of this we paid for this kind of delivery service. When we inquired the driver about his action he convinced us that file a complaint with Bob’s and they will take care of this damage.

    Here begins CUSTOMER WORST NIGHTMARE – We called the customer service to file the complaint right then and filed our complaint. We never heard anything until the following week when we were told that our claim has to be processed by a third party. It took almost another week for someone to get back to us from this “third party” when they asked us to send the pictures of the damaged pole and two quote from two independent contractors. We did as we were told, we waited another two weeks and we got an email that do we have a video of the truck doing the damage because apparently the DRIVER LIED that he never did any such damage. We were shocked to read this email – So as a customer we are supposed to make a video when the Bob’s discount delivers our furniture - are you serious about this.

    The last email we got is that we have to provide a video of the truck damaging our property because the Driver is lying that he did not do this. This whole experience makes us feel so frustrated and sad that a national level furniture store treats their loyal customers with a worst customer service one can imagine. We have been calling BOB'S every day since the email but apparently, no one cares to answer our call. We wanted to share this experience with everyone so that people are cautious about such kind of horrendous treatment. We also deserve an explanation from BOB'S DISCOUNT Furniture on when and how this situation of ours will get resolved.

    1 star because 0 stars is not an option. This set came all damage (bed, dresser, chest). I bought it in Dec 2018, they tried to schedule exchange deliveries 6 times, and every single time they were damaged. 2 months waiting for a product and they wanted me to keep it. Today 3/9/2019 (is the 7th time), once again, they came damaged. So I decided to return it, but the customer service agent told me that it is not an option, according to Bob's policy a return/refund is not an option. After almost 1 hour on the call, finally a supervisor could accept the return, but they don't accept to refund the delivery cost (which is almost $100)... totally unacceptable... Nightmare from beginning to end.

    I DO NOT RECOMMEND BOB'S, even its customer service said, and I quote: "we can't ensure that a product will come in good condition, your next delivery could be in worst condition than your current product, so I suggest you to keep what you already have"... That means they don't do a quality check before a product is put in a box.

    If I could leave 0 stars I would! I've utilized Bob's services several times in the past and this last purchase experience was by far the worst. I ordered a living room set and 2 queen beds to be delivered to 2 different locations. I was informed by 2 workers (Harry and Nilda) at Bob's in Union, NJ that the delivery date was confirmed for both addresses provided. Two days before the expected delivery I was informed the beds were entered in the system under the wrong address by Harry and Nilda. I was also informed the furniture could not be delivered to the second address this weekend and would have to be rescheduled.

    However, since I was already expecting a delivery this weekend I took off from work and made myself available. Now, I've wasted my weekend and Bob's failed to deliver as promised. This was clearly the fault of the salesperson that entered the wrong information and failed to follow up. I actually reviewed the transaction with both Harry and Nilda not once but three times before the purchase was completed. I'm very disappointed in the incompetence of the team of supposed experts that handled the transaction. After years of buying furniture with Bob's this would be my last!!!

It's past 3, so I call and ask and they say that the delivery people came, they rang the doorbell and no one answered so they left. Mind you they were at the wrong apartment number and they didn't give me a call to tell me they are here. I live in apartment two and they go to apartment one, like that is the definition of bad service, and they need to fire those delivery guys. This is the last time I order something from this place.

    Traveled to my nearest Bob's furniture store with already knowing which bedroom set I had in mind. Sales associate was great... easy, fast and simple. My delivery day comes and every one of my pieces of furniture came damaged. I immediately traveled back to my Bob’s furniture store to inform them... was directed to get on the phone with customer service to set up a new delivery to replace all the furniture that was first delivered.

    Second delivery day comes and I’m expecting all new furniture but no... I was sent 4 night stands. Yes... not a typo... on order for my delivery that was to replace all my damaged furniture... were 4 nightstands. No idea where the confusion was to replace the entire bedroom set with a new bedroom set of the same one I chose ... to instead sending me 4 nightstands!? Again same process. back to Bob’s... back to customer service to set up a 3rd attempt at the initially chosen bedroom set. 3rd delivery day comes... not only am I sent damaged furniture YET AGAIN... but also missing bedrails. So not only was the 3rd attempt a fail but they were missing pieces. What makes it better is that I called the day prior to confirm my delivery and what was being sent to me for my 3rd attempt...

Within 5 minutes, the tech leaves my house and doesn't inform me of anything, I don't know if he fixed it or if he is going to fix it or anything. I am clueless. I called the tech and even left a voicemail and never called me back.

    Had a bad experience with parts that failed for a product. To be honest the wood or material that they make is so cheap, you will notice cracks on the parts, even though you do not put stress on them. I had a dining table with warranty. Unlucky me, my warranty expired, so I had to order the part in September 2018, with delivery date in last week of November 2018. Come November, customer service tells me that the part is ready and will be shipped and I should be getting it by first week December 2018. Delivery failed, so I call back to them asking what happened and they mention, the part that they received is damage, so they have to re-order the part once again for me.

    Now this time, they gave me a delivery deadline end of late February. I called the office on 28th February 2019 to find out what is going on with the part. After going through their crappy telephone automated services, I get hold of a customer representative. After wait of 5 mins, customer service tells me that they no longer have parts maintained by Bob's. Literally, I was taken for ride of 6 months for replacing a leg of my dining table. Even if I had the warranty, the customer service said I would have to my leg replaced. What does this mean, warranty you get the part and without warranty no part.

I called, They sent a tech out and he even said, "This shouldn't have happened. I will report this to them. You should be getting a replacement." After three weeks I never heard anything so I called. The woman on the phone said this is not covered under manufacturer's warranty and has nothing to do with how it's made.

    I asked, "Then what is covered?" "The material separated from the stitching." Although she had photos there that clearly shows the seam, She repeatedly said it's not the way it was made that caused the problem. I asked for a revisit. She said they do not send guys out twice. Not sure what to do at this point but I will NEVER buy here again. Prices are OK and in store customer service will get you to buy because they are very nice but it's not worth the headache.

    My Power Reclining Sofa Set was delivered on January 26, 2019. On the third day, the power transformer stopped working so we called customer service and they told us that we will get part within seven to ten days. After waiting when I called customer service to know the status of a part, they told me that I won't get it before mid-March!!! We just used the recliner for two days. So I and my Friends and family now decided not to buy anything from Bob's ever.

    Just as the others were misled with Bob’s Furniture Store’s so called Goof Proof Warranty, so were we! Our salesman told us that it covered and damages that occurred within 5 yrs given it was not intentional. We thought Oh Great warranty! NOT! One of the recliner chairs on our sectional popped loose when my mother sat down and one of our bar stools has bulging wood on the base and leg opposite the screw on the other side as if it the tension is causing it to split. Naturally I wasn’t worried because we because it was covered under the warranty. I called to report it and was told due to my mother “sitting” down, that’s normal behavior not accidental behavior so it’s not covered and sense I didn’t know how the bat stool just cracked on its own, that too was not covered since there was no known accident that caused it!

    I asked her to explain what is considered an accident and she couldn't. I called Bob’s corporate office and was told the same and since my manufacturer's warranty expired just 1 month prior, I have to pay for repairs! We paid $400 for a rip-off warranty that covers nothing but per their example stains or rips caused buy accidents like knives, pens or markers left in your pocket! Absolutely a RIP OFF!!! We will never buy from BOB'S AGAIN!!

    This is a scam. When you purchase this warranty you are being told everything is covered. Shortly after purchasing living set it began to fall apart at the seams. When I called to have it repaired they sent a repair person to sew it by hand. He did one cushion and said he would return. Once he called in he handed me the phone and left. Now the customer service rep stated they cannot warranty it because this was not an accident. I realize this was not an accident it was poor workmanship or sub-par product. Then I was offered to purchase covers on my dime. My response was why buy more garbage. After spending thousands of dollars over several years. Bob will never get a dime from me. Wish there were negative star ratings.

    I can't believe I have to rate this with at least 1 star. I'd go negative stars if it was an option. So severely disappointed in this sham of a furniture store. I knew that the quality of their furniture is sub-par but thought I'd give it a try just because it is cheap. The furniture started to fall apart pretty much right away so I called into their customer service dept. I should've read more reviews on their "Goof Proof" extended warranty which apparently only covers "accidental" damages. The sales person told me that it will cover everything for 5 yrs. BS! They will then explain to you what their definition of an "accident" is after they've evaluated your claim and deny it. You're better off spending the extra money on better quality with actual warranty coverage. Lesson learned and Bob's just lost another customer.

    I have shopped at Bob's before and had a pretty pleasant experience. So when my husband and I were in the market for a new dining room table, we decided to go back to Bob's. It started with me ordering the table online and I received a call the next to day to schedule delivery. A few hours later, I get a message that the order was cancelled and my money would be refunded. They never gave a reason, but I had recently changed my name and figured maybe that was the why. Since I thought it was a name issue on my card, we reordered the table with my husband's card instead. At this point, I was not upset since they said my refund would come in the next few days.

    Fast forward 2 weeks (I gave it plenty of time), I called Bob's and they told me it could take a few weeks and that it was still processing. 2 weeks after that, I called again. They were unsure what the problem was and that they would have the accounting department call me back. 3 more phone calls over the next month and a half went the same way - they always said the accounting department would call me back. Finally, I became frustrated enough and asked to talk to corporate. Calling the corporate number just transferred me to the store, which is not what I wanted. They make talking to someone at corporate extremely hard (probably on purpose), but I was not giving up. This was $400 that I wasn't getting back.

    FINALLY, I was able to talk to someone from corporate. I told her my story and she looked into it and said my refund was already initiated. I assured her that I did not receive my money and that I would be happy to submit bank records to verify this. She told me there was nothing they could do about it and that I should call my bank. I called my bank and confirmed that the money wasn't processing or hidden somewhere. Once again I called them back (this is probably the 10th call at this point) and asked to speak to the manager. The "manager" was EXTREMELY rude. I usually do not get angry at customer service reps because I understand that they have it rough, but when someone is telling me, and I quote, that it is not her problem that my money wasn't showing up in my bank account then all bets are off.

    After getting absolutely nowhere with asking her to send me the information saying that the refunded was given on their end and again offering to send them bank statements, I told her I was filing a charge with my bank. She literally responded with "I don't care what you do." I was shocked. I can't believe the audacity someone could have when it is THEIR JOB TO SERVICE ME, THE CUSTOMER.

    I ended up filing a charge with my bank and they determined that there was wrongdoing on Bob's end so I was refunded the money, but it should have never have gotten to that point. If I am offering to provide you proof that I did not receive my money, then as a business, you should be doing everything you can to help me. I will NEVER shop at Bob's again and will be telling everyone I know not to as well. BEWARE of Bob's and their unprofessional business practice!!

    I will start by saying I first placed my order for a dresser and a nightstand with Bob's online - after a couple of days of being unsure of my selection I went in person to the Worcester store. I explained my doubts to the associate - we looked around and I found something I liked slightly better so he made the exchange in the computer and seeing nothing was delivered yet it should have been an easy switch. I paid for my new pieces and waited for my credit on the previous selected pieces. Then I wait for the new set - delivery was smooth and delivery guys were wonderful and quick. Weeks go by and I never see my credit from before - so now I've paid for 2 sets - I called 3 times! They ask me to wait another 3-5 days every time I call - I call again and this time a little more agitated and lo and behold the refund was never even started - never processed by the first associate. Yaaaaaa. I finally receive my credit!

    Now getting back to my new set - when the delivery guy put my dresser down it was immediately wobbly - he tells me it's because of the legs (mission style) and on thick rugs it will wobble - UGHHH. I don't like it at all. Today I call to say it's only been 3 weeks and I'm not happy with how it sits on my rug and would like to have a refund - they say absolutely not - hmmm so I ask for a store credit and they say absolutely not -- okkk now what! They say they are sorry but only if the piece was defective they would send me another one. I tell them I don't want the same style dresser though and they say, "Sorry you picked it out. UGHHH. It's only been 3 WEEKS! I am extremely unhappy and every website and every place to send a review I will send this story - poor customer service and poor policies will spread like wildfire through the mouths of consumers!!!

    I purchased a adjustable bed and bed frame from your store in Woodbridge NJ on 1/6/19 with a delivery date of 1/9/19. On 1/9/19 the delivery driver arrived and informed us the wrong adjustable base was sent and the bed could not be installed. We refused the merchandise and it was sent back. I called the store on 1/9/19 to inform them and went there in person on the same date and a new delivery date was set for 1/10/19. On 1/10/19 the installers arrived and advised us the bed could not be installed since the footboard was not included in the delivery. I immediately contacted the store and customer service to advise them of this, and was given a new delivery and install date of 1/12/19.

    On 1/12/19 the installers arrived around 7:58 am, once again, when they went to install the bedding they notice the screws for the bed frame were missing. I called the customer care center at 10 am as soon as they opened. I spoke with Daniel and advised him if the bedroom set could not be installed today, I wanted to return the merchandise for a full refund. Upon conclusion of speaking with Daniel, he advised me he spoke to his supervisor who stated the install staff would return to the distribution center, pick up the hardware and once approved by the distribution center, they would be back today to install the merchandise.

    I waited and once I did not get a response I contacted the store. I was advised the managers were in a meeting and someone would call me back. I arrived at the Woodbridge location at 2:12 pm and asked to speak to a manager. I spoke with the salesperson and Maria at the front desk. Another women was speaking with them and working on my issue. I again asked for the Manager and the women named Tracy advised me that my delivery charges would be refunded.

    I was still not satisfied, since I asked to speak to a manager and still was not granted my request. I finally asked the other workers at the front desk "who the manager" was and they advised me it was Tracey. I am highly disappointed in her managerial skills, Tracey never stated she was the manager and never spoke to me when I requested it.

    I then asked to speak to the store manager. I spoke with Dominick ** and made him aware of what occurred and my dissatisfaction (with tears running down my eyes from frustration). I also advised him of the request to speak to Tracy and how I was brushed off. Dominick, assured me he would speak to Tracy regarding my dissatisfaction. My salesperson Jonathan was sympathetic to my issue and tried to make me whole in every way, but he kept being told by Tracey there's not much she could do. The end result my new delivery date is set for 1/16/19. I am appalled at the service I received, as I have had to double my blood pressure medicine and have had a headache for the last 5 days. I will never shop at Bob's ever again, or recommend this business to anyone.

    I purchased a $2,700 sectional from Bob's furniture and the additional Goof Proof. The sectional had two ends that were reclinable and an armless reclinable piece. It is a piece of junk and do not buy furniture from Bob's. Their furniture is made terrible that's why it is so cheap compared to competitors. This is the second time I have purchased a living room set from Bob's in 15 years and both times the furniture looked at 20 years old after a year. We live in a home with no children and no pets. Just my boyfriend and I. Half the sectional was never used. All of the fabric started to tear away from the seams on the section of the sectional that we never sat on. It was almost like the fabric dried out or something and just started to split three pieces out of 5. Believe it or not the two that didn't have a problem with the two we sat in regularly every single evening.

    I had only owned the furniture for a year-and-a-half. The seams are not coming apart. The fabric attached to the seams is tearing away from the stitching. They told me that from regular wear and tear. Can you imagine that basically what they're saying is even if you don't use your furniture which we didn't it's going to fall apart. I promise you save your money save up money and go someplace else. Their furniture is junk. Their service is **. Goof proof is a scam. I had to have the armless recliner replaced once already because it's made so cheap that they attach the metal lever to a tiny piece of plastic and it snaps off and then they give you the runaround when they go to replace it.

    It has been a terrible experience that same exact piece has broken again and their representative that came out to my home actually said it's a design defect. They should put a solid piece of plywood in there. It gets caught on this little piece and snaps. We've seen it hundreds and hundreds of times. He said there is no way to fix it. You need a new piece. He explained that to customer service on the phone. They said okay. He handed me my phone back and said they'll take care of it from here and he left. She put me on hold honest-to-god. I think it was to wait for the technician to get out of my driveway came back and said we actually can order a part for that. I knew they couldn't because this is the second time this has happened in the first time they put me through the same game.

    I explained to her that this is already happened to me in the past and she assured me that there was a new part and it would be delivered by the first week of December. Of course I never received the part. When I reached out to them they expressed to me that it was on backorder. It's now January 12th and I still don't have the part so I reached out to them again and they told me that part was already delivered and I signed for it. Fortunately for me all communications with them have been done via email so I have all of the documentation.

    When I reached out to them to express that I did not receive the item and I did not sign for it. They told me to go to the Post office and checked there. So I did and when they told me they had no record of the tracking number that Bob's Furniture gave me finally pick the phone up and called them and I read them the riot act. I demanded a copy of the so-called signed delivery sheet. I wanted a picture in a part number of the items they supposedly had dropped off. I wanted the driver who dropped it off. I wanted the tracking number after going through everything I just said here and in more detail. She put me on hold and came back and said that the supervisor has agreed to order me a new piece of furniture since it's been on backorder.

    They lie. They try to break you down and they hope that you will eventually give up. Do not give up on them. Hold them accountable. I have so many conversations going back and forth between their customer service and how many times have changed what they said and expressing to them that the so-called wear and tear and my furniture. My parents brought furniture 20 years ago from Jordan's and it's still in their home and is fine. My boyfriend stop furniture from Bernie and Phyl's about 10 years ago. There's nothing wrong with it. My boyfriend's mother bought a sectional from Bernie and Phyl's 15 or so years ago. Everything still works and looks fairly new.

    I have had this furniture 18 months and it is falling apart. It is garbage. Read the reviews. There are no good reviews about Bob's Furniture. I am now waiting again to hear from them about when do you plan on replacing this piece of furniture. We are going on months now. They are terrible and I don't know how the district attorney and Consumer Reports and whoever else goes after people like this. I can't believe they haven't been reprimanded punished or sued their ** off. They are terrible.

    Two weeks ago I had a recliner chair delivered. Due to multiple spine surgeries I tend to sleep in it often. I also suffer from fibromyalgia along with several autoimmune disorders and a weak immune system. And am chemical sensitive meaning I can experience very bad allergic symptoms, headaches, stomach issues, etc. On the first night I did just that. The chair was made with polyurethane foam. The smell was so strong it cause my system to flare. Along with the fact the chair was much too hard for me and the footrest handle was not properly installed. Stuck out three inches from side of chair. I called the store. Explained in detail my issues, my health, the chair was too hard and the smell of the poly foam causing me to have a reaction and was allowed to exchange for something else.

    One week later they delivered another chair and sadly I had the same issue only worse. I had hives, rash, severe headache and asthma attack. I immediately called the corporate office in Manchester explaining my health issues how sick I was the previous night and asked that it be picked up and my credit card refunded. Knowing it’s not their policy but I physically was being made ill from the polyurethane foam and as there was nothing in my price range that I could exchange for as they all had polyurethane foam I needed to go elsewhere.

    After being put on hold several times she returned and claimed I returned the prior chair because it was too soft. That since there was nothing in the system stating I had health issues (they totally didn’t report the true reason for the need to return which was my health) that I was lying. I feel they wanted to cover their own **. They refuse to help this time. Now I have a chair that I can’t use as is. Going in the garage tomorrow because it’s making me sick. I’ll never buy from them again. My skin feels like a million bee stings. My inhaler is needed and my stomach is killing me. Being chemical sensitive the allergic reaction is unbearable. If you have any sensitivity to smells RUN FAST FROM BOB'S. I’m beside myself. I want to cry. I don’t know what else to do. I just want it gone. BEWARE OF BOB'S!!! They’re out for themselves.

    Two accent chairs were delivered damaged. One chair had a rip in the arm and the other accent chair was damaged in the back. I called to report and there was a 10-15 minute wait time on hold. I was told they had to sent out a tech to look at damage so I scheduled and had to miss some work time. Tech fixed one chair but the other chair needed replaced which now required me to schedule another delivery, miss more work because they won't deliver on a Saturday unless its a new order. I don't think I should be penalized because their delivery service damaged my chairs or they came from the warehouse like this and now the delivery must be a weekday when I work. The day the chair was to be delivered I was in my way home from work to meet delivery people- I got a call from driver- I told him I'd be there in about 10 minutes.

    Then I immediately got a call from a rep from Bob's delivery- which I again told her I was on my way. As I was pulling up to my house I saw the delivery truck pulling away- I tried to wave them down but they ignored me and left. Had to call and was on hold again for 10- 15 minutes. I did use call back option and they could not help me. I don't think they really cared and I had to reschedule again for next week and miss more work. We'll see what happens next week.

I wrote a Google review and Bob's did reach out to me. Bob's told me they would send someone out to look at the sofa in which they did and just left. It turns out the frame was cracked. The technician made a call with my phone to headquarters, gave me my phone back, made a quick beat to the door and left.

    I talked to Ethan and he told me it wasn't a manufacturer defect, even though there are no center support legs for such a long sofa. The sofa in 1 month passed the one year warranty. The frame of the sofa cracked because of a manufacturer defect because we do not allow any mistreatment of our furniture. I never had a sofa go bad as fast as the one from Bob's Furniture. Apparently they really don't believe in the quality of their furniture because they offered no additional help. I will never step another foot into a Bob's Furniture store again.

    ABSOLUTELY THE WORST SHOPPING EXPERIENCE IN OVER 50 YEARS OF BEING A UNITED STATES CONSUMER. The salespeople at this place will LIE LIE LIE, ANYTHING to make a sale. We purchased a $3600 leather sectional. We were told time and time again, that Goof Proof covers ANY kind of accidental damage for 5 years after the sale. That was the only reason that we purchased such an expensive sofa set. We would have NEVER purchased ANYTHING in that store had we read all the THOUSANDS of negative reviews about Bob's, particularly about their COMMON practice by the sales staff to lie about Goof Proof plan and always say that it covers any kind of damage.

    The color finish on the leather is coming off, and at this point we're sure the material is anything BUT leather. The seams on the covers come apart with the slightest bump with a vacuum, to the point that only after a year, ALL 5 sectional pieces have rips in them. My sister went to Big Lots and purchased similar furniture there at LESS than 1/5th of the price and that furniture looks and feels like it did when it was new. Our $3,600 sectional looks like CRAP. We finally filed a claim with Goof Proof. The whole process from beginning to end is like pulling teeth. The Goof Proof protection plan is through a very shady company (Guardian), which also sells extended warranty protection for automobile dealerships.

    THIS COMPANY HAS MILLIONS OF UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS. That should have been another red flag. Guardian makes it EXTREMELY difficult to file a claim. I tried for an entire week to get through with anyone on the phone to file this claim. To sum this up, ALL the damage on the sectional SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED, according to the salesman and according to their own fine print; but it was of course denied.

    We purchase a dining room set, server, and cocktail table and end tables a couple of years ago and bought the goof proof insurance for accidental damage. Well as luck would have it a child threw a toy and it scratched the end table. When we call to file a claim they told us to do it online. Why should we have to do all the work when we paid $150 for the insurance? They should do this by phone with one of their reps. We did fill out the form which had many questions. We mistakenly filled out the “the how did this happen line with “unknown”. After submission it took them 10 days to respond and rejected the claim even though it was accidental as that is what the insurance is for. Normal wear and tear is not covered.

    So I went to store where I bought it from and explained the problem and asked for them to get the insurance company to reopen the claim and explain why. They had someone from customer care call me three days later and that person reminded me several times that this call is being recorded like this was going to used in a court case. She was also very rude and had no customer service skills. You get what you pay for. She actually accused me of changing my story as if I was on a witness stand. After arguing with her for ten minutes she transferred me to a higher level and that person (name withheld to protect the innocent) told me they have been having issues with the insurer lately as they have had a lot of turnover.

    She then told me I would get a call from the goof proof liaison dept within 48 business hours. That did not happen so I got the goof proof liaison departments number and called them and asked for the rep who’s name I got from customer service. After he looked into it he told me the insurer would not re-examine the claim because of the error in filling it out. He did however offer to give us a store credit for the whole set as it has been discontinued. That means we would have to buy another set that did not match the dining room table and server as they are all in one room. I asked that it all be returned as we want it all to match. Nope they would not do this.

    Again we were told that this style was discontinued. My wife went online and found 10 of the very table we needed replaced. Unfortunately it was at the Bob’s outlet store and they told me that they could not ship from that store as it was 2 different systems. I would have to go there and buy it which I did. Are you kidding me? Now I had to spend more money than what I originally spent. The easy fix was just send me the table from that store and pick up the damaged one. After all Bob’s does own both. Nope cannot do that. We’re talking about a $100 table. They also entered the credit for the dining room table which was never in question. That took 2 phone calls to get corrected. Then they were going to pick up 2 end tables and the cocktail table which was not correct. I just need a new end table which I finally got them to understand after 7 days of phone calls and hours of my time.

    Today I found out that I have to use the credit within 30 days or it disappears. What??? Given the amount of business that insurance company gets from Bob’s you would think Bob’s would have a little leverage with them or at least try. What I have learned from this experience; 1. Read the insurance fine print 2. Bob’s and Bain Capital (the owners) need to review customer service practices and allow more flexible decision making at the street level for unique circumstances. Too much micromanagement!

    3. After this I doubt I would buy from Bob’s again given the wringer I was put thru. They forgot who the customer is!!! 4. This whole experience has gone on for more than two weeks. 5. Bain better look into the management of this company to make sure it can be as customer friendly as possible and reasonable. If they do not, their capital investment will not receive or exceed the return on invested capital they expected!

    Purchasing furniture at My Bob's was the worst experience I have ever had purchasing furniture 1. The drawers for the bed were all crushed. 2. The delivery people assembled the furniture incorrectly and tried to correct a defect by using a stain pen to cover it up right in front of me. 3. The delivery people bad attitudes because I would not sign off and actually said things like "Oh My God". Their only concern was their next delivery. Bob's refunded the delivery fee insinuating that everything was the delivery company's fault. I asked to speak to a Manager and someone called from the same call center acting like an upper manager insulting my intelligence.

    We purchased a sectional from Bob's Furniture 16 months ago. We originally noticed the pieces did not line up but at delivery was told we just needed to play with it. Now the frame of the sofa has not only broken and at risk of tearing. Through the back of the sofa there are industrial staples sticking out. In addition the staples along the back of the sofa are pulling out and are also a hazard to cut anyone who walks too close to the sofa.

    I tried contacting Bob's in hopes this was a rare fluke and they would stand behind the quality of their furniture but was told even though it's only by a few months, this is outside their warranty and there is nothing they can do. They did not want to come inspect the furniture or even see pictures. They do not care beyond getting your money. Please think twice before purchasing from them. I understand this is more affordable furniture but it should not have to be replaced annually. I tried giving no stars but was forced to rate something.

    I ordered over ten thousand dollars worth of furniture for my new home from the Garden City store. My order was incorrect from the moment I ordered it. I paid for 2 full size mattress covers and 1 queen size and was provided 1 queen and 2 twin. I had to contact customer service and hang on line for an hour to arrange for the new products to be delivered with my furniture that Saturday. Saturday came and guess what? The order was still wrong. I still don’t have the correct mattress pad cover. It is supposed to be coming via FedEx but I guess I have to wait and see if that happens.

    The furniture is delivered on Saturday and soon after it is dropped off an “inspector” comes and says that furniture is damaged and that he has to contact customer care. He sits with my family and me for an hour and contacts customer care to have the items swapped out. After waiting a few days the new furniture is scheduled to come. Guess what? The wrong furniture is delivered AGAIN! I contact customer service again and after being on hold for over an hour the young lady who answered tells me that she can’t fix the issue because the “system” says I have the correct items when clearly she and I agree that what was delivered is NOT the correct item.

    I ask to speak to a supervisor and 20 minutes later Shonda (supervisor) comes to the phone, listens to my story and HANGS UP! I call the store I purchased the items from back and they are trying to assist me in speaking to someone who can actually assist me. Sara (live chat) and Ashley (live chat) also proved to be useless as they keep directing me to a number that no one is answering. I cannot believe that Bob’s treats customers this way. To further point out Bob’s lack of caring for their customers…the ONLY person who was willing to hear me out and TRY to assist me was Charlene from the Garden City store where I purchased the furniture and guess what? Customer service hung up on her.

    I plan on reporting Bob’s to the Better Business Bureau and researching every other entity that I can to discourage customers from dealing with this ** SHOW of an organization. You are unprofessional, unethical and unworthy to sell anything to customers. I will be also contacting the attorney general. All I got for all of my frustration today is some sort of “return order number” and no remedy in regard to my situation.

    My complaint is primarily in relation to the service that failed to come out. This was the third scheduled trip to my home. I used the tracker and knew they were nearby. However, they never showed up. About an hour later, I received a phone call notifying that no one answered the door when they stopped by. This means that yet another service call needed to be set up. All of this is due to a power recliner that was damaged to begin with. From what the one service man that showed up said, the frame was bent. So he ordered the frame and motor. This is now going on the second week of sitting in my foyer. A large box with what is about the half size of the recliner itself. I was hoping for more from Bob's.

    DO NOT BUY BOB’S GOOF PROOF PROTECTION PLAN. I bought a sofa less than 4 months ago and got a puncture in one of the seat cushions and a spring also came out the bottom of the sofa. I called the Goof Proof Protection Plan 3 times and had to wait around 20 minutes on each call for someone to pick up. The sad part about this service is that you need to know exactly how the accident happened or it won't be covered. You are asked a number of leading questions so that they don't honor your claim.

    I spent $100 dollars on this protection plan and I feel scammed. I will have to find an external leather/vinyl company to fix a puncture less than the size of a dime because these people will not come look at it. I’m extremely disappointed of how the service and call was handled. I have another purchase pending approval and will talk to the manager at Bob’s to cancel my order immediately. For some reason it seems the quality of the furniture isn’t great and then their salespeople upsell customers the protection plan to later find out that they will not take care of the smallest of issues.

This time it held till the following day. Mind you, we were just sitting on the sofa to watch TV.

    When we called the warranty they told us that the technician stated he could not fix the issue and this was a manufacturer's problem. Still, Bob's refused to replace the item. Then, we were referred to the manufacturer. Guess what, they said it was not a manufacturer item and instructed us to contact the warranty.

    Finally, the furniture got delivered in November 2018 (Almost after 8 months). But in two separate deliveries. They didn't delivered the recliner chair. I had to make at least 20-30 calls to Bob's with new date of delivery each time. Now, the loveseat which they delivered has crack in two legs. I have also taken the goof-proof plan for which I paid $350.00. They sent a guy to my house as a service team rep., just to take the picture of the cracked legs. He said that he was not here to replace the legs, he came to verify what I said over the phone to customer service was true. They don't believe their customer. And now I am following up with them to get the replacement of the legs.

    The rep. told me that they don't have the replacement wooden legs for love-seat in stock, so they will have to replace the whole loveseat which will be delivered at the earliest by May 2019.

My wife, daughter, and grandchildren went to leave once it arrived so they fiddled around our car while I left the door cracked at our Apartment and prepared for them to bring them up. My son in law took their dog for a walk. It was raining but there is not much distance from where the truck was and the stairs... covered mind you. Only about 15 feet.

They got out the truck and stood and the stairs. My son in law asked them if they were here to deliver the mattresses. Mind you they were wearing Bob's Furniture jackets and hats. They said "No. We are delivering Appliances" and got back in the truck. They left about 3:58. I checked the delivery notification tracker and it said failed to deliver. "Knocked on door. No one answered". Liars! The door was cracked open! They sent pictures to the store with a guy standing at a door that was not mine!

    I purchased the Austin bedroom set (6 pcs). Looks beautiful, delivered on time and with professionalism... Was very happy...until they left. There is a very strong pungent odor omitting from this furniture. After extensive research I found that where wood furniture is concerned, if processed or prefabricated, it will contain toxic chemicals such as formaldehyde so when I went in to purchase this product, I asked what it was made of and was ensured it was 100% pine. However, once delivered and it smelled (of which is permeating my entire house).

    I called to ask again, what it was made of and came right out and asked if it contained any formaldehyde. 1st, it took 2 HOURS on the phone and being shuffled to one person or another. YES, 2 HOURS ON THE PHONE! My patience ran out after 1 hour, so imagine my conversation with this so called customer support dept, only to be ensured that 1) it was 100% pine and 2) contained NO formaldehyde. They also said there were no complaints ever about the smell. It was then I knew they were lying... Since I read several reviews about this same complaint! The manager of the store was kind enough to call me back, and they offered to return it, but since I have no other furniture (since I gave my old set to the needy) I asked her again if she could kindly tell me what exactly it's made of, because it wasn't pure wood!

    She said she would call the mfg and call me back after asking them directly. She later called back and admitted that it was not pure and there WAS formaldehyde in it but within EPA standards. Needless to say, this furniture is making me literally ill! 5 days later after delivery and it still has this uncontrollable odor that is causing my eyes to tear, making me nauseous, dizzy and cough. We had to invest in a $200 air purifier specifically for removal of formaldehyde. I am livid that they lied to us just to make a sale! Had they told me the truth from my first question before we purchased it, we never would have.

    On October 10th when I still haven't heard from them I contacted them. They told me after much arguing that they would replace the table but the bench and the bedroom set would have to be repaired by a furniture repair person and that would require another delivery date. I received a call that on Saturday. The table will be delivered and in the afternoon the furniture repair person would come. The table was delivered. They looked at the bench and they said, "Yeah. That needs to be replaced." In fact he looked underneath the bed and he could see the screws were not even put into the rails. They were next to them and I had actually cut my leg on the screws and the leg was falling off. Not even holding up the bed under my head.

    He stated he would put in his report and to call Bob's in a few days. I actually called right after he left. We set up another delivery for the following week and they were going to bring the bench and all new bedroom set. Following week came. The bench was delivered. They were placed two nightstands. The chest they did not replace, address or even though he said they would. And instead of bringing a whole new bedroom set they only brought the rails which could not be done because of the damage to the headboard and footboard and that they needed the whole bedroom set to be replaced. The delivery people got on the phone with Bob's. Explain this to them. Out next week.

    Each time I talked to them they said compensation would be given after everything was delivered. This trick they use of theirs because they only give you store credit but they do not tell you that until after everything. I accepted a chest with damage on it because the lady told me I would get credit for it and I was so tired of dealing with them and spending hours and hours on the phone and days and days waiting for deliveries.

    The next week the furniture was supposed to be delivered on Saturday but I had to cancel as I had a funeral to go to. When I called to tell them this week check the order and again they were only sending rails instead of the whole bed. Again I had to argue and fight with them but they did look into it and said yes I would get a whole new bed. We set the delivery for the next Saturday.

    Delivery was done today. Then people put the bed together. They did notice how much damage was done to the rails and it said that had to have been done when they set it up. And the leg was put in wrong and it broke the place for the leg to go. So after everything was okay I called to get compensation. My original thought was I wanted the delivery fee special delivery fee I paid returned because of all this nonsense I've had to go through and at least 20 to 25% off the furniture because of all the hassle I went originally. The girl came on and offered me $100.

    I said, "Absolutely not. I want to speak to your supervisor." She says, "I'm trying to deal with him. LLet me get back. I'll put you on hold." Then came back and said I could have $150 which was more than the cost of the delivery which I do not believe it was. And then when I said, "I guess that's acceptable." I go, "It's not really acceptable but it's better than nothing." Then she proceeded to tell me which I said "Absolutely not. They Bend."

    I said, "Give me your supervisor." After a while the supervisor came on then he proceeded to tell me I can have the $170 of delivery fee refunded and 150 also for store credit only. And I said, "I don't want store credit. I will never come back into your store. I don't want to spend four more weeks trying to get a delivery done. This is delivered around the 28th of September. We are on the 9th of November and it has taken me all this time to get these pieces of furniture delivered and all of them have been damaged and had to be returned and given New pieces to me again."

    He said, "We only do store credit." And he goes, "Well I guess I could give you $25 per delivery where things went wrong so that would be $100." I said, "You've got to be kidding me." To your credit card the corporate office to deal with this as there is no customer service on this phone line and nobody helps and nobody should have to go through this much time. I said, "I've spent 32 hours waiting for your furniture, people to deliver furniture and look to see if they could repair it." I spent countless hours. Just today I've spent 2 hours on the phone or waiting for callbacks or waiting for supervisors to get this handled. I told him, "Absolutely not" and I told him I would be calling corporate and hung up the phone up.

    I certainly would not ever recommend anyone using Bob's Furniture. Now I'm that but when we purchased the bedroom set they said we wouldn't need a box spring because that the box spring was included in the way the frame is set up which was not the truth. We did have a box spring but that was a lie. The slats underneath the bed holding the mattress and the box spring up are very very thin. There Maybe less than 2 in WYD and there's three of them. The bed is not very sturdy. The frame structure is not sturdy.

    Bedroom pieces was 8 piece bedroom set and the only thing that didn't need to be replaced was the mirror. The table and the bench had to be replaced. That is a very poor delivery rate. Not to mention that this stuff was delivered September 28th or they're about and I have spent all this time from the day of delivery trying to get it fixed and straightened out on the order. They will not help and they only say they give store credit so I would not recommend this furniture place. I would spend the extra money because in the long run your time is much more valuable and I have 32 hours so far into waiting for them to get furniture delivered to fix their errors.

    There is no customer service. they seem to never know what I'm calling about or what the complaint is or what we're supposed to be done. It never seems to show up on the computer and nobody seems to be able to help and they just push it down the line for someone else to deal with. And they told me I would be given compensation after the delivery which was today and I had stated it all along that I wanted the delivery charge back and more compensation and they said they would take care of it after delivery was completed and they don't want to do what was promised which I guess I shouldn't be surprised after all the hassle I had with delivering. I would give this company negative Stars if I could.

    I have bought items from Bob's that were fine, but I strongly advise anyone to NOT BUY one of their bonded-leather SOFAS. The "leather" started totally decomposing after about 5 years (just after the warranty expired). My wife and I would sit on it for perhaps 1-2 hours a day. We are small, not heavy beings... We have no kids or pets. There was no reason for the sofa to wear out so quickly OTHER THAN CHEAP-CHEAP MATERIAL. So be warned...

    I purchased both manufacturing and accidental insurance on my Recliner Sofa which I paid $2600 + Goof plus for $199. The furniture salesman will hand you a nice little brochure about everything they supposedly cover, however, only AFTER you sign up and pay for it you will receive four pages of small print from Guardian of everything that is excluded, rendering it basically useless for all intended purposes! Do not buy the warranty, save your money because they will not do anything for you!

    Bob's inspector came 3 times & said couch is not repairable and said the claim falls under accidental insurance which is under Guardian. It’s like back & forth & no one wants to take the responsibility to fix the product! Funny thing is One of Bob’s technician who came he said, "Be careful with this warranty 'cause 99% they don’t apply to anything they say they will. They just sell you this to give you peace of mind!" Bottom line don’t buy the warranty at all! SAVE YOUR MONEY & use it on something else.

    We purchased a couch just over a year ago from Bob's. We purposely went there as we knew it was inexpensive and we figured between our dogs and kids that they would add lots of wear and tear. About 3 weeks ago we filed a claim because our dog threw up in 3 different spots on the couch, resulting in 3 large stains. I filed the claim and somebody came out to clean. He proceeded to tell me because there is some overall staining that he had to submit pictures. Needless to say I received the letter today from Guardian that they denied the claim.

    I told the guy initially that I just wanted the stains out and didn't care if it was discolored in comparison to the rest of the couch. He said he couldn't do it. This took hours of my time to call and sit on hold to wait to file the claim and then take a day off so the guy could come clean... and now I am left with a stained couch with a worthless Goof Proof plan. Stay away - or if you choose to buy - know that you are buying because it is cheap and DO NOT buy the Goof Proof plan.

    I purchased an Apollo sofa and loveseat with power recliner and a chaise from Bob’s furniture in Waldorf Md on 2/11/2015. I was told to purchase the good proof insurance. It’s been 3 years and all my pieces I purchased from there have started to tear. So I go in the store and let them know what was going on. They tell me to call the goof proof insurance. I called them and when I finally got through after being on hold the lady was real nice. She told me that’s not a goof proof issue to call Bob’s back because that’s a manufacturer problem and I purchased my furniture in 2015 and everyone who purchased their furniture In 2015/2016 was giving an extended warranty. So I call Bob’s and they tell me to send pictures in and someone will get back with me in 10 days.

    I sent the pictures in Tuesday November 6 2018. They wrote me back in a couple hours. This is what they wrote me back. “Good Afternoon Crystal, We have carefully reviewed the photos that you submitted to make sure we understand the full scope of the issue you are experiencing. While reviewing your account, we can see that you received your sofa and loveseat on 02/11/2015. The damage you are reporting is not consistent with a Factory Defect. And it’s really terrible because you pay all this money for furniture and it looks terrible. And they said the furniture is real leather and that’s what leather do over the years. While our goal is to find every opportunity to satisfy our Customers and I am sorry that in this case, we cannot honor your claim.

Bob’s is telling us they are unable to exchange our couches because the defect is not covered under warranty. This is so unfortunate. The couches are peels and the stitching has come undone. We’ve sent pictures of the couches and because they see the stuffing coming out of our couches, they cannot do an exchange. This is poor customer service.

    I love Bob's Discount Furniture - we've gotten a sectional sofa and two dressers from here and they're great. But when we bought this bed and it arrived, it stank. Reeked of paint/varnish/other chemicals. We aired it out for over two weeks -- windows open in the middle of October -- and it STILL smells horrible. Also, in the store, the saleswoman told me that it was made of solid wood and was NOT made of fiberboard or wood paneling/veneers. I asked her, specifically because I don't want my son inhaling fiberboard.

    But for the last two weeks, my son has gotten an allergic/asthmatic reaction to this bed whenever he gets near it - wheezing and sneezing. I called Bob's this morning and they REFUSE to let me return it. They'll let me exchange it for another bed, but according to the website their kids' beds all have the same materials (medium density fiberboard and veneers -- NOT solid wood like they told me).

    I don't really understand it. We're regular customers, and this is actually a medical issue. They want us to have our son keep a bed that he can't use - or get another one...that he can't use? We were told the bed was made of solid wood and instead my son is allergic to the materials the bed is actually made of. I want a refund. So frustrated.

We soon found the sewing ripping off slowly and the stuffing was coming out for the love seat and a sofa. The other sofa is close to rip as well. I called customer service and they said they couldn't help because I didn't have insurance. The spot where it ripped is hidden. The company said customers have experienced similar problems which is why they stopped selling this model.

    They want me to buy insurance because they knew the couches were bad. Because I didn't buy insurance they sold me defected ones. I don't understand how the couches ripped in less than a year. Especially since we rarely used it. Before these couches, my old ones lasted over 10 years and I never had this problem and I paid good money for these couches and they are not supposed to rip easy. It is a manufacturer defect since the rip is pretty hidden you would have to put your hands under the armrests to notice. DON'T BUY. FURNITURE FROM THIS STORE IS NOT GOOD.

    Bob's Discount Furniture has a show room on Leesburg Pike in the Bailey's Crossroads shopping center. The furniture displayed appears to be of good quality, and while high pressure salespeople are consistently hovering over you and asking questions, at least at first we felt reasonably comfortable with the selection. When we decided to make our purchase of a recliner love seat for the living room, we weighed a few options and ultimately settled on one that was a good fit for the decor of our living room. We flagged down a salesperson and made sure all of the details (color, model, configuration) were in the sales contract. In addition, we purchased a Five Year Goof Protection plan (which Bob's resells for Guardian Protection Products) which was clearly advertised to provide protection against (among other things), "Rips, Tears and Punctures" according to the advertisement we were given.

    During the delivery process, Bob's Discount Furniture fumbled and brought the wrong furniture to us twice. It was a pretty frustrating ordeal since we had taken extra care to ensure all of the details for the love seat we purchased were recorded properly. When we finally got the correct love seat in we noticed an awful off-gassing smell, presumably from cheaper wood used to build the couch that is glued together. This off-gassing smell lasted six months...

    Other issues we've encountered in the last two and a half years include the motorized recliner moving more slowly and making a fair amount of noise (despite periodically cleaning the motor and re-lubricating it). When it came time to utilize our Goof Proof protection plan due to a series of tears in the couch, we were told that such damage is not covered -- and further that we should have received the terms of the Goof Proof plan (offered by Guardian Protection Products) on February 16th, 2016 (during the series of failed sofa deliveries). But we never got the terms of the plan and we had no way of knowing there was any limitation for the coverage on tears as a result.

    Despite this, Bob's Discount Furniture and Guardian Protection Products are currently claiming that we have violated the (until now undisclosed) terms of the Guardian Protection Products plan aka Goof Proof and we cannot have the damage repaired. As a result we feel we have no choice but to rate Bob's Discount Furniture with a 1/5 stars for the following reasons:

    Ease of transaction -- It was difficult to ensure the appropriate item was being sold to us. Salespeople hovered over us until the moment we were ready to buy, then we had to flag them down. Delivery process -- Two failed delivery attempts of the wrong items. A lot of time wasted. Took about a week to sort all of this out. Quality -- The couch was put together with cheap, glued together wood that off-gassed for six months. The fabric is rather thin. The motorized recline mechanism is somewhat cheaply constructed. The filling off the couch, while claiming to be "memory foam" is nothing of the sort. It has no memory and is just cheap synthetic fiber.

    Customer service -- Really the worst. From the issues with delivery to the protection plan sold, both Bob's Discount Furniture and Guardian Protection Products (who work together) have been difficult to deal with, unapologetic for the trouble they've caused and seemingly not honest about the protection plans being sold. We couldn't be more disappointed with our experience and would suggest that people do their homework before visiting this chain. There's a serious disconnection between what one thinks they are buying and what one actually receives.

After being approved, I walked in and was approached by a wonderful sales men who worked with me and my fiance's budget to help us find the platform bed and dresser with mirror that we wanted. He was so patient going thru both of our credits to try and get us a credit card and get a better deal.

    Once we agreed on the furniture we wanted, we were directed to speak to a woman that works with AcceptanceNOW to go through our lease. I asked her as many questions as I can and from what I thought she seemed relatively helpful and able to answer my questions, which now I know was just false information. Since I am in the process of moving into my new apartment, she informed me that I had to show proof of address using my ID, lease or utility bill. Since I had none of those things since I am still waiting for my apartment to finish construction, I asked that once I receive the temporary license from the DMV when I legally change my address if that would be sufficient which she told me that it would. I signed the lease and gave my bank account info and was told I would be charged $49.99 to start the lease then my lease payments would begin November 4th.

    Today, I changed my address at the DMV and received my temporary ID from the DMV. When I called Bob's today to provide them with the address confirmation and was transferred to what I think is AcceptanceNOW, a woman there told me that would not be sufficient documentation and that if I didn't provide proof of address by tomorrow (10/29/18) that my lease would be cancelled and I would not receive my furniture. I was NEVER informed of a 10 day period (according to the woman on the phone today 10/28/18) for me to provide proof of address or my entire lease would be voided.

    I called back later asking to speak to a manager to then I was transferred to Hector who claimed to be the manager of AcceptanceNOW. My fiance spoke with Hector on the phone and told us that we had no other options unless we provided the proof of address by 10/29/18 and was going to lose our lease & furniture. He then told us they have no affiliation with Bob's Furniture and that he was the highest person we could speak with - basically that no one could help us, including Bob's Furniture or Rent a Center.

    I am so disappointed and disgusted with this service. I have never personally done any business with Bob's Furniture before this, and after all this running around (along with being placed on hold and having to call back 3 times to get connected to AcceptanceNOW because they 'just wouldn't pick up the phone' according to the operator) I feel lied to, and swindled out of my money and my time. This is my fiance and I first apartment together and AcceptanceNOW and unfortunately BOB'S Furniture has made this a very unpleasant experience. At this point, with no help or assistance from either company, I will have to take my business elsewhere. I will make sure to refer my friends and family to other furniture companies so they won't have to go thru what I did. I would only give the experience one star because of the amazing salesman we had.

After that I followed up with them so many times but this is end of October and I didn't receive any replacement so far.

I asked him where the location of the store is, he says he doesn't know!!! Because he is new? He never sent a confirmation email afterwards confirming the location or the parking situation! So I had to figure all this out and hope I get it right! How unprofessional to start with...

    I walk in, 20 Minutes early to the interview, dressed semi casual - as any NORMAL job interview, and mind you I worked in luxury fashion on Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills for 3 years, so I know what I'm talking about. So I walked in asking for Brenden, the greeter tells me to walk to the back and ask for him. After walking in, the receptionist asks me to wait to the right and she calls Brenden on the store speaker. Brenden walks up, asking me who am I and why am I here??? I told him I'm here for an interview. First thing that comes out of his mouth is why don't I have a suit on? in a passive aggressive manner! I told him usually if its required to come in wearing a suit the recruiter mentions that? And that’s usually for corporate jobs - I'm not applying for a used car salesperson job!

    Then he asks me again in the aggressive manner, “Have you worked in sales before?” (thou I worked on Rodeo Drive for 3 years) and with the U.S. Military for 2 years, and as an ESL teacher and a Language consultant for the federal government! Anyways, I tell him I applied for the office assistant position. So he asks me if I have a resume I told him yes. He took the first page and walked away, so as he was walking I told him I have a second page of my resume, which he replied I don't need that. So he walked into his office and closed the door. And that’s when I decided to walk out of there and never recommend Bob’s Furniture to anyone and specially not to work in an unprofessional aggressive environment like that! I have been in a lot of interviews and had numerous jobs, but I have never encountered anything like that!

    I filed a claim over a week ago. Today it was denied. I called because my fiancé sat on the couch and the frame broke. Bob’s doesn’t Want to pay the claim because they are saying the frame broke and there is no defect. Guardian doesn’t want to pay the claim because they’re saying the accidental breakage of the couch wasn’t accidental. I was even told a story by the rep that someone fell off a ladder changing a lightbulb and landed on the couch and that is Yeah an acceptable claim. How does that make any sense?

    That story is a complete lie but somehow my pregnant fiancé sitting on the couch and it accidentally breaking is NOT covered? This needs to be fixed. Guardian Keeps sending me to Bob’s and Bob’s Keeps sending me to Guardian. Neither company is doing anything but pointing fingers at the other company. This is the worst customer service ever. Between Bobby ** from the call center and “there being no supervisors that can speak On the phone” I’m sure there will be a lot of people that will take their business elsewhere.

    On Thursday, October 11th 2018, I had a mattress and adjustable base delivered. Delivery guys said, rest of parts of adjustable base were on truck. I thought delivery guys went down to truck to retrieve parts. Since I had their number on caller ID, I called them to say they forgot to bring up parts. Delivery person stated that they had to get to their next delivery and to call customer service. I called customer service rep Jeremy and he stated that 2 technicians will be at my home on Tuesday, October 16th to bring parts and assemble. I waited all day and no one showed. That evening I spoke to another customer service rep Kendal, she stated that the reason no one showed was because the part was back ordered? It was left on the truck so how could it be backordered? Kendal stated that it will take a couple of weeks to get. Next day I get an e-mail that they wanted me to take pictures of the missing parts and send to customer service.

    Can someone explain to me how you can take pictures of missing parts? I called customer service again Wednesday morning of October 17th and spoke w/ Carol who stated that the e-mail was strange and disregard, no need to send pics. Then on Thursday October 18th, I got a call from the condo association at where I live that there is a huge box in the lobby, 7 feet by 3 feet, that needs to be removed because it's an obstruction and a fire hazard and God forbid it falls on one of the residents. Lo and behold it's one of the missing parts that I was told was backordered and won't be able for delivery one month that the two technicians were supposed to bring on Tuesday!!!

    I called customer service again and spoke w/ Nya (sp) and she stated that they couldn't come out and deliver it to my unit Saturday, October 20th, I said that fire department and the condo association needs it out of the lobby quicker than that. Nya then connected me with her supervisor Keven, who assured me that someone would be out today, Friday October 19th to remove from lobby and install in my unit and to please call back if I didn't hear anything by 9 am on Friday October 19th. Well, no one called me by 9. I gave another hour just in case and then called customer service once again to explain my predicament, spoke w/ Stephanie who said she could get a technician out by Wednesday October 24th!!!

    I told Stephanie that supervisor Kevin said they would be out today. She then tells me that Kevin never put the order for service, she then connects me to her supervisor Rebecca who then states that she will see if she can get someone out today or tomorrow but can't guarantee. So now my condo association is going to have it removed out of the lobby at my expense and Rebecca said that this is not Bob's Furniture's problem. I paid $219 dollars for white glove delivery! I would move it myself but I just had a cervical laminectomy and multilevel lumbar laminectomy and I'm not allowed to lift anything heavier than a gallon of water. I have never been treated so poorly and lied to by every single person that I have dealt with.

    I should have researched this company before I made the purchase. I empathize with all the consumers who had to experience the very unprofessional and even rude staff at this company. I purchased a bed (not with the mattress) from Bob's July of 2017 only because I was not able to find a bed with 6 storage drawers. The delivery and setup man was very unpleasant. Anyway it seemed ok until in Dec 2017 I noticed the drawer in the footboard started to sag, the top was flush and the bottom sticking out. Shortly after that it totally broke and could not roll out. I had to wait before I reported it because I was going to be out of the country. In April of 2018 I went to the store and reported the situation. The manager had no clue about what broke, anyway he called repair and they knew so they said they would send the part. It took them more than 3 weeks before the part arrived then they told me it would be another 3 wks before the service tech would be there.

    I'm a DIY person so I decided to fix it myself. Upon opening the package I realized they sent a wrong part. I went to the store with the part... the manager yelled at me and said "you should not have opened the package" really! If I would have waited until the technician arrived he still would not be able to fix the problem. So the part (correct part) had to be reordered... 3 wks wait again. Finally, part arrived tech scheduled to come... after fixing broken part drawer was still not closing properly. Tech (K) reported the matter (with pictures) so again they say another part was needed to rectify the problem. I called customer service and was told by a very rude rep that the part would not be available until Dec 2018.

    I responded and advised them that I would not be waiting and be inconvenienced any longer and that I would be reporting the matter to Consumer Affairs and BBB. The part arrived the end of Sept, the technician arrived on Oct 4th and after all that the part was not needed. What was needed was for the leg height to be adjusted. Yes, I also bought their "goof proof" protection which is a total sham and rip off. I will certainly not be buying anything else from this company. I will also let people I know "buy at your own risk".

    Their delivery service suck. We were given a 4 hour delivery window between 2 pm and 6 pm. We were all home and I kept following up on the delivery tracker on their website. I was pit stop 13 of 13 so that alone gave me cause to worry. At 5:40 I called this particular store to ask about my delivery and the lady we talked to assured us that she had spoken to the driver and they were running late, but they would be coming soon. 6 o'clock, I check the delivery tracker and it states that delivery is incomplete. I immediately get on the phone and the same lady assures me that that is just a system glitch, they are on their way and will be at my place any moment. A few minutes later, I receive a call from customer service telling me that delivery was attempted at 5:51 pm and we weren't home. This is what puzzles me: if this driver had indeed been informed that we were waiting for him from our first call to the store, how can he say that we weren't home?

    I have motion sensors and security cameras all around my place; it would be hard to miss a Bob's Furniture truck. I have reviewed my phone records, no phone call was made, no voicemail was left. Now they are telling me to wait a whole week before they can come around to delivering my furniture. This suck!!!

Normal wear is not the finish coming off the leather after less than 1 year, and the seams of the leather/vinyl sections coming apart. All their furniture is really garbage.

    Goof Proof warranty is a scam. Furniture is crap - I do have the couch just about 4 years. I weigh 140 pounds, have no kids in the home and the console seat broke where the springs literally all broke came through the fabric and the cushion is on wood... The ends of the couch recline so the center where the springs just collapsed is the area hardly used. They claim this is normal wear of a couch to collapse in the center from NOTHING. No one jumps on it and no one in my home is obese. So they send a tech, he looked about 25 years old. He refuses to take certain pics and HE deems it normal wear... I can not even get a second tech to come look at it...so if you buy a new couch set over 2 grand from Bob's DO NOT expect it to last over 4 years even if you are a single person with NO young kids.

    Bob's has to have the worst customer service I've ever experienced. I have spoken with a minimum of 6 representatives to resolve an issue, over the course of ONE month (hours of time), each with misinformation on how Goof Proof protection works and NO sincere resolution. My husband and I purchased goof proof protection based on the information provided by the sale associate - we would be covered for pet damage, including rips and tears. When we finally need to use it, which is rare for us - I was passed around for over 1 month from agent to agent with a different set of instructions. Representative 1 made us take photos and complete forms to file a claim, but once submitted BOB'S came back and said it was not "manufactured damage," because the representative provided incorrect information.

    2 weeks later, representative 2 explained we completed it wrong, apologized, and sent us on a wild goose chase to representative 3, who directed us through the same process as representative 1. To save myself time, I decided to use the callback service, which NEVER CALLED BACK - hold times can delay up to 3 hours. Once we finally got to representative 4, she walked me through an hour process, over the phone, so we could file the goof proof claim together, only to tell us the damage was not covered!

    At this point, I finally decided to call customer service and corporate, who were my representatives 5 and 6, who again said "we are sorry, and nothing we can do." No refund on the goof proof protection overall and no furniture repairs. So not only have I wasted hours of my time, while being misinformed numerous times, I've also wasted money on a protection plan that does nothing for me.

    The corporate group seems to think way too lightly of their sales associates not providing the correct information, which was clearly the response from our final conversation. UNACCEPTABLE! Train your staff on your brand and services, and invest in proper customer service efforts if you want to maintain customer relationships.

I also ordered a headboard that I saw advertised on their website as in stock for $119. When I placed the full order at the store, I was told the headboard is out of stock and will ship separately at the beginning of May. Middle of June comes around, still no headboard, I call the store and ask when this will ship, as I have not received it yet. The woman I spoke to was quick to get me off the phone and said they don't get too many details about items on back order, but it is showing a new ship date of June 16th. It is now September 29th! And I have yet to receive this.

    I requested a refund. Five months have gone by with no updates from the company about my order. Here is the best part - the headboard that I was waiting 5 months for is still on their website, the exact model number and size, as well as the same price, advertised as in stock! That means that they advertise furniture at low prices on their website to make it look like they have furniture that is super cheap, but they don't actually carry the items. And for their other furniture - you get what you pay for. Pretty low quality, expect to have to replace most of it in a few years.

    I LOVED Bob's when we bought our bed frame 4 years ago, and I like our couch as well, however today's experience has left me fuming mad! I will NEVER use Bob's delivery services again. The actual store is not being reviewed here, what I am reviewing is their customer service number that you call. The 1-800 number. Where do I start... the delivery people didn't have one of the end pieces to my couch. Some other wrong part was put on the truck in the morning. When I ordered the couch I made sure it would be delivered before this weekend. I also took today off to wait for the delivery all because we have 50 people coming this weekend for a big party and now I have a HUGE part of my brand new couch missing. That would make anyone mad to not have their house in order for a party.

    One would think that a MAJOR company like Bob's that made a mistake would have some room in their next 2 day schedule to work in a customer who needs the ENTIRE couch ordered. How about that fact that all we get is a "sorry, that's unfortunate" after they charged me $220 for delivery and they are making me wait so that at their convenience they can deliver the part. I asked for money back on the delivery and was told they don't do that.

    Then, to make this entire situation even more frustrating - I was told by my sales lady that if any of the pieces didn't fit in my room that I should refuse the delivery of them. I didn't like 2 of the middle pieces to the sectional, it felt too big and made the room feel cramped, so I "refused delivery" on those 2 pieces. Well, the delivery man - Kevin, wasn't having that. He told me I was making more work for him and had his guys come get the pieces and stormed out of here, leaving behind a huge industrial sized bag of garbage as well as a bedroom dresser box filled with garbage. (we didn't order a dresser). So, now out on our lawn/curb we have a huge pile of trash, thanks Bob's for making our yard look super trashy when you don't even know when our garbage is picked up and how long that will sit there.

    I don't usually complain or ask for help. Considering the circumstances, they should've tried to do something. I spent over $4,000 dollars there this year. I'm annoyed they wouldn't help! The mattress I had from Sleepy's was way more comfortable! I should've gone there instead. Be careful in buying a mattress at Bob's. The associates are used to selling furniture, not mattresses, and they're looking to make a sale. They really don't know how to sell for the comfort of your body. And given my experience with their mattresses, I can't say I think they are "soft". Maybe someone who likes firm mattresses disguised as soft might like what they have to offer. Blessings!

    We purchased a couch a few years ago in NY knowing we'd be moving to NC. We specifically asked if the insurance plan they sold us was transferable to NC and were told yes. After just a few months (while still in NY) 3 of our cushions ripped. The rep came out and determined that it was defective and could be replaced, however the cushions were on backorder for 5 months. They said they would call us when they came in. Instead, we heard nothing, but came home to 3 giant boxes of couch cushion skins sitting on our front stoop several months later. There was no contact from the company, no instructions and being that our couch is an upholstered recliner sectional, it is not as simple as replacing the old cushion with the new - the old skins need to be removed and the new ones reupholstered on.

    In short, we are not qualified to do it, so we weren't sure what they expected us to do with them. Because we were in the midst of our move, we put them in storage to deal with later. A year and a half later, not sure if they would still address it, I called customer service to see if we could set something up to have a tech come and put the skins on. To my surprise, they said they'd be happy to do it, even though some time had passed... Except that they don't service NC. I asked why we had been specifically told that they did and they had no answer except to say they were sorry I was misinformed but they couldn't help. So they not only sold me a defective couch, but also an insurance plan I could do nothing with. I would absolutely NOT recommend Bob's to any of my family or friends back home. There is no integrity to their products, their sales tactics or their customer service.

    I purchased a sofa at the Whitehall PA store. Within 3 months my sofa sunk in the middle. Upon a closer look I noticed that the wood that comes across the front had warped. I had to put bricks under to support it. Funny thing is I had the same problem with a loveseat I bought about 5 years ago. Is not like we are home all day sitting on them. I work 14 hour days. Will never buy anything or recommend it again. They used the cheapest materials they can find. By the way, my sofa pillows turned to pancakes.
