    I went into Bob's in the reading area today around 2 pm and we were not greeted by anyone in the store. My we walked around the store looking at dining room table and even put the leaf inside of a table. We watched about 8 sales associate sit in one area and not one person asked if they could help us. Two salespeople even came within 5 ft but never said a word. So I walked around the store looking at other items that I wasn't even interested in and even walked right past the group of salespeople and not one of them asked if I was being helped.

    So I sat by the door and watched other customers enter the store and all of them were greeted by a salesperson. As I sat on the couch I called the store manager and explain the situation over the phone and told him that I was still in the store and felt as though we were purposely being ignored. The manager hung up the phone and came and apologized in person but the damage was already done. I don't have any plans on ever shopping at Bob's ever again.

    I purchased a chair and side table that were to be delivered today. The delivery guys were great but unfortunately they brought the wrong chair (not their fault). They called customer service to let them know and the woman was so mean to them, tried blaming them for the error yet they just deliver what they're told. When she got on the phone with me she tried blaming the sales person until I told her I had the receipt in front of me and the sales person definitely ordered the right chair. She didn't apologize at all and acted like it was an inconvenience to talk to me.

    We could not agree on a delivery date so I asked to speak to her supervisor but she wouldn't let me. She offered to transfer me to the refund department to get my money back but what I really want is my chair. After much arguing she said she put in a request for the delivery date I need and hung up on me. I am waiting for the store that I bought it at to open to see if they can help me because I'm pretty sure she didn't put in any request for me. I will start looking today for another chair from a store that values my business...

    I received a sofa and matching loveseat from Bob's Furniture Store in Columbia, MD as a gift. Loved my set, up until year 3. We moved across the country and settled into our new place. One day I noted the back leg had broken off so I attempted to put it back. Then I noticed the frame of the couch near the back leg section was cracked or broken. I have no clue how this would happen when all I have done is moved the couch from one side to another side of the apartment. We had purchased the additional protection coverage, so I filed a claim, which hold times were ridiculously long, for it to be denied in less than 2 minutes. I was told it's a manufacturer's defect and needed to go through the store.

    So I called Bob's, again long hold times, just to be told I have moved outside of their coverage area and needed to file a claim through the protection coverage. At this point, everyone is saying there's nothing they can do for me. I just want it to be repaired or replaced as the coverage states it would. I love how comfortable my sofa is and it's a shame that I'm dealing with this at year 3 of it being in my possession. I would not recommend buying furniture from Bob's if you need it to last long, and I'd highly discourage anyone from adding the protection coverage. It's a waste of money.

    Purchased a couch and motorized recliner two and half weeks ago. Told salesperson that delivery would need to be made up 6 flights of stairs. Salesperson said "no problem" and added notes to this effect in the delivery notes. First attempt, two men were sent and advised they could not deliver over 4 stories without another man. They said they were not informed of the flights. Rescheduled. Second time same problem occurred. Rescheduled again. Now on third delivery attempt and even though I reached out to our salesman prior to the delivery to remind him of the three men needed (and he assured me he contacted the delivery people), two men show up. We are done! Only solution the manager gave to me was to reschedule. Seriously?!! They may have great prices but if you can't get the furniture delivered...

    Bob's delivery team did $1,400 dollars of damage to my stairwell walls installing a sofa upstairs. I filed a claim; 2 months later no word from claims. All we are getting is the runaround from other departments and the claims department. No one calls or reaches out to you even when you do your part and what they ask of you to file. Avoid this company. They lost my business for good.

    Bought living room furniture. I have had three different deliveries because all or some of furniture was damaged. Customer service reps are the rudest people. Offered me as $30 gift card for my troubles. I want my $1500 back and this cheaply made furniture out of my house.

    I originally purchased a living room set from this company. After a few months the cushions started to sink, contacted Goof Proof and got the run around for months but finally got a refund and was able to purchase another set. The new set came broken and was told I’d have to wait weeks for a new piece. Was told I’d receive a gift card for the hassle but never did. Customer service rep would not provide last name and was extremely rude. New furniture less than a year old and is ripping already. They sell cheap furniture of poor quality! Steer clear of purchasing from them!!!

When call to customer care they said it covered by Goof Proof and when I call Goof Proof they said it just 11 month so it cover by manufacturer. Both are play football with me. So please aware by this company. Never buy furniture with them.

    Read the fine print before purchasing a Goof Proof plan, because it's a HUGE waste of money. Big mistake that I didn't. About a year ago we had a flooding issue in our apartment which stained one of the chairs we purchased. I called and was told it wasn't covered because I didn't spill it personally and it was due to a burst pipe, but I could call my homeowners insurance and maybe they could help. Fast forward to this weekend, I personally spilled oil on my coffee table by accident and it discolored the wood, no problem surely this would be covered, so I called again. I was told because it wasn't food or beverage spilled it isn't covered. So essentially unless you go around spilling red wine or milk and not cleaning it up or leave hot pots on your table (not to be confused with bubbling that can occur from heat, they don't cover that, has to be rings and rings only) don't waste your time. I've already filed for my prorated refund.

    Hi, I bought a couch for $$$ on October 2016 and after 1.5 years of use, I saw the seats are going down. I guess the material inside and the spring are not good to last even for at least 2 years. As I took a 5 year coverage, I called them couple of times and a guy showed up, checked it and told me that he is ordering it for me and I will get it in 2 weeks time. It was in the month of April. Then around May, I called the customer care, they told that they are currently out of stock and will send it by May end. After waiting for another month, I called them again and they said they already dispatched it, I will get it in 10 days time. Now it is September 4th and I still waiting. Very poor service. Very poor communication. Will not refer anyone to buy anything from this Store. All fake promises and forces the customer to go for 5 years warranty plan for $100. Please try to keep the promise.

    I bought two bar chairs which turned out to be too tall for the kitchen counter. I looked up Bob's return policy and found that most everything is not returnable. If the salesman stated the return policy I don't recall. He certainly did not emphasize it. Now I will have to purchase two, more suitable chairs. How much money did I save by buying at Bob's? Not a cent. Be sure to check all the fine print before signing on the dotted line.

    I bought a carpet pad from Bob's Discount Furniture two months ago in a unopened sealed Plastic container and I tried to return it for a full refund. They would not honor it at all. The minute you leave the store you're 100% out of luck for a refund. It is like buying a used car from a dealership. Like it is "AS IS". I already purchased a few items from them. I will not purchase any more items from them again!. I guess I have to go to Raymour and Flanigan.

    I have 2 couches from Bob’s. Both couches barely made it a year without needing replacement cushions. It takes multiple long phone calls to Bob’s and months of waiting to actually get replacement cushions. Currently waiting on replacement cushions and after a month they sent the wrong ones and told me I have to wait another month for the right ones. Will never buy anything from Bob’s. Poor quality products and you will waste hours of your life dealing with customer service.

I can easily trick this if I cut with knife and call them. Seems like they are fooling with the customer and collecting $$$ in Goof Proof. I would suggest to stay away from these.

    ***BEWARE*** I purchased an all leather reclining sofa and recliner with a 5 year Goof Proof warranty for over $1500. After just 2 years of use the leather is cracking and peeling. They claim to be 100% leather... Obviously it is a cheap imitation. Customer service representative inspected it and claims it's normal wear. Upon visiting the store the Manager advised me that it does not look like normal wear for an all leather sofa and she would contact the highest corporate level to have the photos reviewed. Weeks passed without a call back. I finally got a response from her only because I went into the store. She said it's normal wear, she refused to give me the corporate name and number of the person she spoke to. I will never be purchasing from Bob's again and I urge everyone to go to another furniture store. SHAME ON YOU BOB'S!!!

    We purchased an entire bedroom set for our daughter a little over a year ago. She was about to turn 4 at the time, so we spent the extra $200 on the goof proof protection plan... Let's start at the beginning. Bedroom set is delivered, and the dresser is a completely different color from the rest of the set. Sent it back. Dresser is delivered a second time AGAIN IN THE WRONG COLOR. (Entire set was white, dresser was delivered in silver and then brown.) Dresser finally is delivered in the correct color, and is severely damaged. Sent back again. Finally get the correct dresser.

    So there's the beginning of their garbage operation. From there, the furniture seemed fine until a few weeks ago. Is at on the bed to read my daughter a bedtime story and the side panel that holds the mattress in place snapped off and broke. Now the mattress has nowhere to sit and is being propped up in the top corner by a bunch of books. I should mention I'm 5 foot 10, 170 lbs. Not exactly a big person...

    So now worries right? Just call the "Goof Proof" protection plan. They literally state in the contract that this type of issue is covered for up to 5 years and $20,000 worth of damage, (Furniture isn't worth .1 percent of 20k for the whole set in my opinion, but I digress)... This is where it gets ugly. Sat on hold for over an hour 3 different times trying to get a hold of them. Requested a call back at this point from the automated system. If you miss the call back you have to start all over. FINALLY get in contact with them and they say it's not covered by them, but to call Bob's and they should take care of it...

    Ok... Call Bob's. They say, "Send pictures of it to this email address." Cool. Sent the pictures. Three days later, "We're not responsible for that. Call your Goof Proof contract number and they should cover it." Responded to the email, but never got a response. As of right now, I'm waiting for a call back from the "Goof Proof" people AGAIN and this is still outstanding. I will literally never shop there again, and will be going to the store in person to obtain a resolution if this is denied again. They're an absolute joke and a complete scam. Do yourself a favor, don't go there. They're awful.

    I ordered a bed set in July, but the rails were not ready with the rest. The original delivery day was 8/4, but was changed to 8/17 so the rails were available. Then the week of the 17th they called us that they would not be ready until the 25th of August. Then this past Monday, 8/20 I received a call that the set would not be available until 9/7. After requesting to speak to a manager she informed me that the associate's information was incorrect and everything was still available for Saturday, 8/25 except the nightstand which would be available on 9/1. I agreed to reschedule the nightstand and confirmed the rest would definitely be coming on Saturday the 25th. She PROMISED.

    My boyfriend received a confirmation call on Thursday 8/23 AND Friday 8/24 to confirm the delivery for Saturday. Then at 8:30PM I received a call that the rails were not in stock and we would need to reschedule our delivery for the FOURTH TIME for one reason or another AFTER receiving TWO confirmation calls. I cancelled our order for a full refund and will never shop at BOB's again. They need to create a more organized system and follow through with delivery dates they give to their customers. I wish I could rate it less than a 1.

    I purchased a sofa from Bob's. The third party delivery company told me it is not their job to bring up the sofa three flights of stairs. After calling customer care and much arguing with the driver they bought up the sofa for me to find it seriously damaged in 5 areas. I received a new delivery date for a new sofa to come. When that day came, the delivery person left without word after seeing the damaged sofa saying they can't take it, it is too big, I should buy something smaller. I called customer care and the rep laughed when I told her the delivery people left after saying they will come back and did take the damaged sofa.

    I went to the store in Glendale, NYC, for a refund. They told me they do not give refunds and the manager put me on the phone with customer care. I spent 3 hrs. in the store. After much arguing with customer care while at the store, where they explained we will give you a new sofa and delivery date, I explained that would be the third time and I am going to another store. At the third hour of being there, they gave a refund and new date to pick up the damaged sofa.

    When trying to track your delivery expect long hold times, and lots of misinformation. The online tracker is a joke! For us it said the truck was in NJ when we were expecting a delivery in Manhattan and the driver finally called and said he would be there within half an hour. I likely spent over 5 hours in the span of two days to correct a wrong delivery and get the right stuff. The 9-1 window turned into after 2:30 with the tracker totally wrong for all of it. Almost impossible to get a real person on the phone and then they are using the same or similar tracker so not much good information. I will say Sharmain did an excellent job corrected the errant delivery and getting us on the schedule for the next day as we were moving into a vacant apartment and needs the bedroom for a 3 yr old. Bottom line is if you have days to sit around and wait, then get furniture from Bob's, if not forget it!

    I initially purchased a bonded leather sofa and recliner along with the Goof Proof Plus warranty in 08/15. In less than a year, the sofa started getting little tears on the cushion. We contacted Bob’s furniture and received a new sofa. Approximately a year later and the sofa again had to be replaced for the same problem. Contacted Bob’s again and was told they stopped carrying the line of furniture because of numerous complaints. Was told I could purchase a new (and more expensive) sofa and they would apply the cost of the original sofa towards it plus buy another Goof Proof Plus warranty for the couch. Approximately a year and a half later, I noticed the bonded leather on the back of the recliner is shredding AND the sofa cushion is wearing out and has a bunch of little holes.

    I call Bob’s again was I was able to get someone out to take pictures. The technician shows up 3 hours earlier than I was told to expect him so I was not at home. According to my husband, the tech took pictures and left. I was notified later that my complaint was denied. I had to call Bob’s several times to find out that my claim was denied because the furniture was showing normal wear and tear. Really? For furniture less than 3 years old? I asked for a review of the decision, I was told that the tech’s determination was final and there was nothing they could do about it and then said the only thing I could do was write a letter to the Corp ofc, which I plan to do. The quality of the furniture doesn’t even rate a “horrible” and their service is even worse. Once you actually purchase the furniture, you are on your own.

    So horrible and ridiculous customer service. The worst customer service ever I got. They show you things like diamond and provide you like zirconium. I ordered sectional sleeping sofa. Representative, showed me memory foam mattress and made me to try it. I said okay, I want this. She made bill. She promised us to get delivery on 31st July, so we were expecting call from BOB but we didn't get any. When we called at store, they said your order is here, we forgot to call you. As we chose to pick up, we reached at store and got our stuff. As stuff was wrapped up, they said do not open right now, it will be hard to carry to our house. We said okay and we got at home with stuff.

    As soon as we unwrapped, we found scratches on it and it was torn at bottom. In addition, the mattress was spring mattress instead of memory foam. We reached to store via call and they transferred to customer care. They scheduled service. Technician came and reported damaged. Customer care informed me to get replacement without paying any extra. Next day I reached to store and asked for replacement and representative said to pay $100. I tried to talk with manager and he was responding so ridiculously that if you want, pay $100. Otherwise you should go out. I talked with customer care again from the store and at this time care said store manager is responsible to decide in this situation. We cannot waive $100. Store manager's decision is final. They made me to pay $100. So horrible customer service.

    Goof Proof! What a joke. Purchased the playpen section a little over a year before the seat cushion collapsed! In February 2018, I called customer service and got a runaround... Finally posted on Bob's Facebook page. A very nice man listened to my story and ordered a new cushion for me. It took over 2 month for that cushion to come, it arrived early May. I called and set up a date for technician to come and replace the cushion.

    He came in and was totally annoyed with Bob's for sending him, he told me there was no way he could do the job because the cushion had to be tufted and that was something that needed to be done in the factory! He calls the office and explains that he cannot do the job then proceeds to say that this was a courtesy because my cat clawed the sofa!!!! Yes, my cat did claw it... Nothing big and the fact that the cushion collapsed should have been the issue not the clawing... and the clawing was on the side! Not even the cushion they were replacing! It was ridiculous! I received a call from Gabrielle at Bob's social media dept. She seemed sympathetic and said that they were at fault for sending me the cushion without a tech going out prior to the ordering.

    She said she was going to speak to her supervisor and see what she could do and would call me back the next day... 1 week passed and no call... She finally did call during the hours that I explicitly said NOT to call because I work. Perhaps she forgot that she did give me her number, I called her back that evening and she told me she was too busy to speak to me as her coworker was off and she was overwhelmed, she would call me back on Monday... No call. I called her again only to get attitude, telling me that they were trying to provide me with a courtesy and that the cat clawing voided the warranty. The cat clawing on the side of the couch has nothing to do with the poor workmanship and shoddy material used on the seat of this piece of junk.

    She was cold and rude. AND I do have emails saying that my furniture is still under warranty but they cannot honor it! Ridiculous. 7 months later I still have a broken sofa and a cushion taking up way too much space in my apartment! I have since filed a complaint and spoke to a lawyer friend. He went over my warranty, emails, photos and video. He said that I should file a small claims case as BOB's Breeched the contract. The materials are low quality and not worth all of this trouble.

    I also, purchased a table and chairs a few years back, it broke, the screws loosened and the chairs became shaky... I also purchased a bedroom set for my daughter... The headboard has a small crack and the drawers fell through. Too bad I didn't heed the warnings! I will NEVER shop BOB's again. Neither will my family. Hope this helps someone from making a mistake. Too bad I am forced to rate with 1 star, they don't even deserve that! -0 Stars!

    When I bought the furniture, I got the warranty; however, after 3 years the furniture started falling apart. I 2x submitted many photos via e-mail (difficult and time consuming process) and was refused help. I told them that I do not have toddlers or pets, so how did I cause the problems? They couldn't answer me. 1 example: Foam is coming out of the leg lift part of the recliner. I guess the furniture is cheap Chinese furniture.

    I regret buying furniture from Bob's Furniture, I bought my furniture from them when I bought my house. All other furniture got delivered on the scheduled date but they didn't have the bed in stock so I had to wait for 3 more weeks for the bed to arrive which seemed a lot since I was moving into a new house I had no bed to sleep on. On the scheduled delivery date, they didn't deliver the bed and didn't bother to call me or give me a reason why. After a few days I called them and they never gave me a reason for not delivering my bed. I rescheduled for another delivery and that was supposed to be today but still no one showed up.

    I called them and they told me that my bed got damaged yet no one even called me to let me know. My husband decided to stay home all day to wait for them and they didn't deliver.I regret going to Bob's Furniture and I doubt if I will ever buy from them again.

    On 8/24/2017 I Purchased a sleep sofa from Bob's and a Bob-O-Pedic mattress for it. The cost $199.00 for mattress. Received the item Sept. 16, 2017. This was after several attempts due to size not fitting in my doorway. The original set ordered was a Queen sleeper sofa. We then changed it to a full sleeper sofa so the next delivery the sofa again didn't fit, due to the fact Bob's sent another Queen sofa. After several phone calls and rescheduling the set finally made it to my home. I was charged for a Maggie II Queen Sleeper. $699.00. Bob-O-Pedic Queen Mattress $199.00. Also paid $99.00 for the Goof Proof protection. The sofa was barely used and when I opened it to dust and clean found mold on the mattress and fabric frame of the sofa bed.

    This is definitely a health risk, now I know why I kept smelling a funny smell when sitting on the sofa. I have tried several attempts to get this resolved. I contacted Customer Care who told me to contact PureCare, after speaking with the service/fabric technician at PureCare I was told my claim would be denied. I sent information to PureCare as requested. All I would like is for Bob's to refund my money for the mattress. I would certainly even take the mattress back to the store if needed. I would like to resolve this issue and feel that as a consumer I should not be passed off to different departments as it seems as if no one wants to stand by their product. No one should have to be subjected to a health hazard.

    I have been a Bob's furniture customer for years and you would think I learned my lesson. We I didn't! I guess you get what you pay for. Less than 8 months ago I purchased a dining room set and it was just problems since day one. The day of the delivery the 2 men that did the delivery left my things in the garage because one of their employees had a hurt back. Why would you even send someone who can't do their job for this service. My husband had to come home form work and bring the table set upstairs and set and assemble it. Mind you we paid for this!! We called and we did explain and we did get a refund. Ok nice.

    About 3 months ago we found that the table top was leaving strikes and paint was coming off every time we cleaned it. I tried everything to clean the top with the same result. While cleaning we found that the edge of the table was splitting. I called the goof proof that I purchased and he "repaired" it. It is so noticeable and a ** job! Just this past 2 weeks we notice that the table had two big bubbles. I called Bob's because I just have had enough. I was given the manufacture email to send some picture and they said it was water damage and if I had goof proof to call them and tell them about the accident. Basically telling them a lie! There no accident! We don't use the table much and I have had all this happen. I went to Bob's store where I purchased the table and the general manager helped me get a number to see if they can further assist me. I called and had a tech come out.

    The tech was rude from the beginning saying he doesn't do this kind of work and there was nothing he can do because there is water damage. Like how is it water damage. The bubbles are in two different spots and if that was the case it would be all in the same dame area. Who in this world would buy a table to cover it up! That was his suggestion! Mind you if I wanted to I will call goof proof and claim it was damage and issue resolved. But the moral of the story is Bob's has bad service and buying insurance is a scam. I should have known this because this has happened before. Oh and when I spoke with the lady today she told me I should have gotten a care kit for purchasing the goof proof insurance. Really was I now. I will like to know where that kit is and maybe I wouldn't have to be dealing with all this mess!!! Now I'm left $2,700 short with a table that is an eyesore to look at!

    In a nutshell, I come to realize that all this time I am sitting on a toxic sofa (Luke sectional sofa) with terrible chemicals. I see on the site they now updated the description area saying the foam is CertiPUR or something like that, says low emission of VOC... toxic chemicals! My couch is older and they seem to not have any info to give me except that it is made with foam. My couch was before they started claiming the sofas were certified so mine isn't even slightly safe. Foam and polyester, flame retardants etc, you name it. It's in the couch. I have a 5 yr plan and I just want my money back and I want to be done with these couches made in China. I can even provide medical documentation of how sick I been over the course of owning this killer couch. People check your stuff!!!

    I purchased a couch years ago along with the protection plan and Bob’s refused to do anything about the damage. Two years ago, I decided to buy my daughter a new bed and dresser and stupidly went back to Bob’s just for the prices. NEVER AGAIN! Her dresser and bed have chips all over it and some weird reoccurring yellow stain. Surprise, surprise, they won’t do anything about the damage because it wasn’t caused by a specific incident, rather, it’s their crappy furniture!!! DO NOT BUY FROM HERE!!! Spend the extra money for quality!

    I bought a brand new sofa from Bob's in Manchester CT in 2013. I was told this sofa was pure leather. The sofa is now peeling with particles all over my living room floor daily, I don't even know if this material is hazardous and can be an issue for me and my family. I sent the pictures to Bob's and they are telling me it is not a manufacturer's defect. This is a ripoff and they should not be able to treat people like that. Just take a look at the images...

    I ordered a Bob-O-Pedic recliner power after I got out of the hospital. I have spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease and needed of decent recliner. I ordered the recliner online for it's difficult for me to get out now. When ordering the recliner I specifically said need to remove old recliner that I am disabled and unable to get rid of it. Lisa who I spoke with to arrange the scheduling had no problem with this arrangement. And tell the guys got here and said they could not take it. They said if I want to refuse it they have no problem taking it back.

    They would rather lose his sale than take the old recliner back. I didn't know what to do. I needed the recliner. The guys put my old recliner on my front porch and then it will say it for who knows how long until I can find somebody to haul it away. I explained it a customer service that I am disabled. I live by myself. I need the help. Please help me and they refused. I let them know that I will never be customers of theirs ever again.

    2 months after purchasing Bedding from Bob's Furniture in Long Beach CA. Long Beach Town Ctr. my 9 year old son fell down on his bed and the whole entire frame broke. This was on May 24th - as of today NO Resolutions - Called 5 times and sent over 15-20 emails.

Poor Poor CS as well as Bob's Furniture in general knowing that a child is sleeping on his mattress on the floor because his bed broke...

    Last message to Guardian this morning was that If I did not hear back from someone by Aug 1st (2 days) I will be standing outside this Bob's location with all my family and friends with signs on my son sleeping on the mattress as well as the broken bed pictures. I will stand out there every day until Bob's stands up and resolves this matter. They have crappy insurance that they sell and then the customer spends months trying to get a resolution.

I gave Bob's Furniture a call, to tell them. They would not cover the warranty, because they said that the company that made the couch was out of business. I asked them if they would give us a discount towards a new piece of furniture, even 10 or 20%, and they would not. I told the store associate that I would never buy from Bob's Furniture again.

    My daughter relocated and we offered to buy her a living room couch. She's young and liked a sectional with cloth ottoman at Bob's. As a 60 year old, I recognized the stuff at Bob's was mediocre stuff, but she loved it so we got it. Sales staff there was great. Sofa was in stock, ottoman was 30 day back order. OK. Sofa was delivered promptly, no issues, except the delivery time was 6:45 a.m. WTF? Ottoman arrived a month later, FOUR BROKEN FEET. Delivery personnel said "store will send you new feet"... but they didn't tell us we had to call and file a claim with customer service. A few weeks later I called asking where the feet were, they had no information on me. Went thru the process with customer service and they said feet were on back order, 14 days. 14 days later we received a package from Bob's. Only ONE FOOT.

    Took three more phone calls and 4 weeks to get the remaining three feet. But when they arrived, there were no screws to attach them. My husband bought screws at Lowe's and I got on the phone. Two months of the ottoman sitting on the floor, unused while Bob's piddled around not sending us supplies. Unreasonable. They offered me a $100 Bob's gift card, never expires and I don't have to buy anything to use it. I agreed. They were supposed to email it to me. A week later, no e-card. Called Customer Service. They said it was applied to my account, but accounting needed to load the card and email it to me. "Call back in a week if you haven't received it." Today is a week. It's late so they are closed. I'll call tomorrow. I know I'll end up with the e-card... eventually, after I fight for it. I will strategically use every cent on that e-gift card and then I'll never set foot in a Bob's again.

    Worst company ever. Ordered furniture for 11 year old to be delivered and put together and had scheduled delivery. Took time off work- they came an hour early than scheduled start time so had to rush back home. OK fine with that. Techs then say they can't put it together because there is no hardware included and left the furniture in the middle of the room and wouldn't take it with them. I can call and have the hardware delivered and wait & 7 TO 10 MORE DAYS for it and when it arrives then call and RESCHEDULE a tech to come out during another window (more time off work). OR I can cancel it and schedule a time for it to be picked up (another 4 hours during the week) and reorder and take more time off for yet another 4 hour delivery.

    Customer service DOESN'T CARE- offered no help- no resolution- no discount- no expediting- will not provide a supervisor or anyone at a higher level to help. I HAVE AN 11 YEAR OLD STARTING THE SCHOOL YEAR WITH NO PLACE TO SLEEP. I will tell EVERYONE I possibly can to never use Bob's. Worst company and worst customer service I have ever received.

Second attempt: One box was missing that was key to completing the stairs/storage unit - MISTAKE. Bob's found an opening 2 days later to finish the job. 5 am that morning received an automated call that said the delivery was going to take place in one hour and 41 minutes. Checked the web page at about 6 am to see if there were any changes in the schedule. The web page now said my delivery was scheduled starting at 8 something am and the truck was on the Eastern Shore of Maryland even though the warehouse is just a couple of miles from my house - MISTAKE.

    Called Customer Service a few minutes later and she had the same info as #6 above - MISTAKE. Delivery showed up at 6:40 am and set-up the rest of the bunk beds.

    I purchased a recliner as a surprise birthday gift for my husband. My son and I tried the one in the store and decided it would be perfect. Sadly, upon delivery we realized it was anything but. The mechanism on the side to recline was difficult to operate. Also the chair automatically laid back even when not reclining - presumably because it was a swivel chair also. My husband found the chair uncomfortable so I immediately called the store. We weren’t asking for our money back, just the chance to exchange it for one that would be better for my husband.

    NO! Apparently on page three of my receipt in very tiny print there is their return policy. None. Never. Too bad - you’re screwed. Even though we were probably going to spend more money on another chair, they would not even discuss it. Even though the side mechanism is very difficult for my 68 year old husband to operate - tough luck. The new chair is now in the basement unused and the old one back in my living room.

I spent thousands of dollars on a couch and a Bob-O-Pedic mattress. The couch had a 5 year warranty and the mattress a 20 year warranty. I should have walked out the door when the salesman warned me about them basically never honoring the warranty. The couch fell apart almost immediately. Within 6 months it was trash. I blamed my rough family and did not go through the warranty for replacement as I'm not looking to get anything for free.

    Now the mattress, was fine until we were moving. It literally fell apart trying to move it. So they send a tech out to inspect. According to Bob's, the mattress disintegrated while moving solely due to a strain. They refused to repair or replace my $1,300 mattress. I'm absolutely disgusted by their shady business. They are nothing but SCAM ARTISTS. If I had Googled the reviews prior to purchase, I would have never walked into their show room. Judging by the other reviews, I assume a class action lawsuit has already been filed but if it hasn't, I will be taking the steps necessary to make sure no one else is ripped off by this garbage company.

    We purchased their GOOF PROOF PLUS Insurance but can’t use it! Essentially they build a cheaper version of a comparable furniture product at a lower price. Then sucker you in to purchasing the "GOOF PROOF PLUS PLAN"! Our recliner came apart at the bottom of mechanism and tore the zipper, fabric and cushioning away from the mechanical arm that opens and closes the foot rest! This area of the unit does not come in contact with the person sitting on it and isn't subject to abuse. The same occurrence happened within the one year of the manufacturers warranty... in the exact same place! Seems to be a pattern here. This was replaced. Keep in mind. The factory warranty covered it! The chair is now 1 year and 5 months in our possession!

    Five months out of the factory "FREE" WARRANTY" and with the "GOOF PROOF PLUS" $130.00 Insurance Plan and were told it's normal wear and tear! WTH? The damage is identical to the original, previously replaced, but since it now falls under the "GOOF PROOF PLAN they won't cover it! Remember. They decide what's a factory defect in workmanship and materials! I waited five days for a reply after a visit from their technician… to no avail, so I called and this started the run around scam!

    So I speak with three different individuals, each well versed in telling me they will offer no assistance. The only recourse is to call the Guardian Coverage Plan... for "ACCIDENTAL Damage". Be very careful if you have damage to your furniture that's from poor design, workmanship or materials, they won’t cover it! And look for loop holes while taking your hard earned money to buy the coverage plan! Essentially what I should have done was pour paint, slashed the material or "Accidentally" burned it! Instead we were honest and pointed out an obvious flaw in design, materials and workmanship!

    This chair is used infrequently and has foam coming out of the seats, worn arm rest material, cracks in the cup holder, springs that have no recoil or strength and simply poorly constructed design! DO NOT PURCHASE THE "GOOFPROOF PLUS" INSURANCE PLAN! They won't cover you! Beware of the insurance they offer and the obviously poorly constructed furniture! I guess I should have known they were dishonest when the animation figure of Bob on his own commercials is a much better and younger looking version of himself, brown hair and all!

    I visited the Villa Park (Illinois) store on June 16, 2018. I wanted to look at their mattress offerings. My first impression, as I walked into the store, was reminiscent of a sleazy 1960s used car dealership; at least a dozen starving salespersons were perched by the door waiting to swoop down and assist me. My sales associate was a pretty young lady that had difficulty in comprehending what features I wanted in a mattress. To continue, the mattress department was on the second floor, and to the horror of the elderly, the walking wounded, and the proponents of the ADA, there is NO elevator or escalator.

    While I did not count the stairs, there were at least twice as many as there are in a typical residence. To add to my anguish, the stairs were carpeted in an ugly (my opinion) multi-coloured pattern which was a hybrid of jungle camouflage and zebra skin. The pattern ran the width of each stair. It was very difficult navigating going down the stairs as the pattern made it extremely challenging to distinguish the actual tread size of each stair. Needless to say, I did not purchase a mattress from Bob’s Discount Furniture.

Ok, it's not covered, regardless I need to order a new cushion. 2 HOURS to order a new cushion and put through 5 different people to do it. This was back in May 2018. They told me the cushion would ship on 6/22/18 so I called today which is the 26th to see where it's at. Now they tell me it's shipping from overseas and it's now not going to ship until July 25th and it will take 7 to 10 days after that so I'm looking at an August delivery date. BUT they already took the money out of my account.

    I had purchased another sectional for my son in 2016 with the Goof Proof plan... I will never do this again. The large cushion started to cave in the couch, we are not large people at all, the cushion wasn't bad but the sofa itself seemed to lean in, called Goof Proof, they sent out a tech to look at it, he said there was nothing wrong. So in my opinion, the Goof Proof plan is nothing but a scam to get extra money out of people because it's either "not covered" or the tech they send out will say there is nothing wrong with the furniture.

    Then they have the Audacity to say, "Oh you have 1 year warranty and Good proof," EXCUSE ME? WTF. Does that have to do with anything? I purchased my furniture expecting everything to be in working order and to be able to use my furniture as I please. It’s RIDICULOUS. UNACCEPTABLE! Not to mention 2 of my dining chair have cracks and the stitching of my ottoman and side tables are coming undone. Let me remind you I’ve only had all my furniture for 1.5 months and already furniture quality is deplorable on top of them trying to tell me they can’t and won’t do nothing. I need to wait until September! I will never ever do business with Bob's and have already posted on all my social media platforms about the unacceptable behavior and advising them to stay away!

    Thankfully I was soon to spend another 3 grand or so to buy a bedroom set and bunk but I will be going anywhere else but BOB'S! Not an "I'm sorry. Let’s compensate you a couple hundred for being unable to not use your merchandise." NOTHING! STAY AWAY FROM BOB'S FURNITURE PLEASE. Saving 2 or 3 hundred isn’t worth the quality your time. Their customer service it’s NOT WORTH IT AT ALL!! PLEASE STAY AWAY.

    I purchased a recliner and rocker in Aug 2016 along with the Goof Proof Plus Protection plan. Suddenly, the recliner leather started peeling off from all the sides. Raised the issue with Bob and the insurance. Both says the issue is not covered through protection plan. But while selling the product they told me everything is covered through this plan! Very poor customer service, no respect for customer. Don't ever buy Bob Discount Furniture's cheap quality products. I will never ever buy or recommend anyone to buy anything from Bob's Discount Furniture.

    We bought a power lift recliner in February of 2016, after I fractured my right arm and had surgery. I was unable to get up from my existing recliner because it rocked. We decided on the power lift to help in getting me up. When the chair was delivered the remote was cracked. They let us borrow one form the store until ours came in. In May of 2018 the remote blew out while I was in a reclined position. I had to crawl out of my chair and called Guardian as we had the goof proof plus. The hold time was 2 and a half hours. My husband remembered the cracked remote we still had and plugged that in. Again, it blew out the remote in the reclined position again.

    We decided the Memorial Day Weekend we were going out looking for a new sofa and decided to stop by Bob's to see what could be done. They set up a service call for us and we waited. The serviceman arrived and said that we needed a new regulator and remote. The remote was on back order until the middle of June, the regulator was delivered the following week. Last night I received a text saying the service would be here today between 1:00 and 1:30 PM. He got here and had no idea what was going on. No remote and did not install the new regulator. Now we are still waiting for the remote and was told as soon as it came in to call them and they would send someone out. This was our 3rd and last piece of furniture we will buy from Bob's. Our new sofa came from somewhere else.

    Purchased a couch and loveseat a little over a year ago. Lost support gradually and began to have back issues since I sit on it several hours a day. Unzipped cushions and to my amazement it was so cheaply stuffed, like packaging material. Contacted the warranty company that I purchased it from that the salesperson claimed takes care of all issue but it takes care of nothing... so don’t buy. Called Church store and they rerouted me to customer care and they refused my offer of swapping the furniture for a better quality one if they have one to no avail... they are now parked in my garage because I will not risk my back since it’s doing better since I removed them from my family room. Poor quality and expensive for disposable furniture. Will not recommend them and will contact the Better Business Bureau for false claims.

    ""Never go to Bob's"". My name is Mathew. I have purchased worth of 5k furniture from the store in Schaumburg, IL on May 2018. I financed $4500 with Wells Fargo and paid $500 as a Personal Check. Bob's Posted my Check 2 times which 'cause $1000 came out of my Bank account. Which also cause me a non sufficient fund fee of $37 just because of their negligence. Bob's refunded my $500 but never refund me my overdraft fee of $37 which was completely their fault. Also they promise me to deliver a tv stand but after two days somebody call me and said they don't have it in stock and wanted to replace with another one. I agreed it and they delivered the TV stand.

    After two weeks somebody call from their Customer service and said they need additional $100 for the TV stand which is after two weeks of their delivery. My worse experience is with their Delivery team. I had set up for two deliveries. First delivery message was they will deliver the furniture between 2 pm-5 pm. But around 9:30 am somebody call me and said they are on my driveway to deliver the furniture. I was at work and rushed to home to make it happen. Second delivery had same issue. Delivery message was they will deliver the furniture between 2 pm-5 pm. But around 10:30 am somebody call me and said they are on my driveway to deliver the furniture. I said I am not at home. They said they need to leave and reschedule the delivery for another day. Again I was at Dr office and suddenly rushed to home to receive the Item. ""I WILL NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH BOB'S ANYMORE""!!!

    My husband and I paid $6600 dollars for an entire bedroom set that when arrived, after tearing apart our stairwell because the delivery team of two refused to bring one piece up, it was obvious this bedroom set was NOT as expected! Once everything was finally upstairs I went up to see it as I had waited outside to be out of the way, the top of the bed was four feet off the floor! I had to literally climb up just to be on it and I was completely terrified once on it. It was not even safe and as my feet were at least a foot from the floor while sitting, it was a jump off the bed to the floor. If I were not prepared, in a position to save myself from a fall, I could easily be hurt. It is ridiculous that this can be sold with no warning to a customer that the combination of the bed with storage would raise the mattress top to a dangerous distance from the floor.

    The delivery crew of two, had to realize this would be refused as they refused to wait for a mantel to be removed to hang the only mirror and they were gone before I had even seen the furniture delivered to the bedroom. They took our old mattress so we had nothing else to sleep on so we had to resolve the problem that day. The delivery crew gone, the front yard littered with yellow packing straps, countless bags of silica gel and broken pieces of styrofoam that I picked up every piece of before the wind could. My husband called customer care and was told he would receive a callback, her last words were actually "good luck" which made us look at each other questioningly. After waiting a length of time with no callback, we called again and were told the same, we would get a call back which we did not. Again we called with no return call, again.

    Finally he tried to return everything and was told once delivery is made, returns are not accepted, simply "not accepted". We tried a total of six or more calls that were never returned and were finally told we are basically stuck with a dangerous bed. We understood the first call, being told "good luck" before the nightmare had really even begun. My husband's initiative kicked in and we are just lucky he has that quality as we are stuck with furniture that will not work as it was sold to us. He has basically torn the bed apart and created faux fronts of the storage drawers, put legs on the mattress and put that all on the floor within the bed frame. The raising of the head and foot of the mattress does not work as it will move the bed frame and create scary motion.

    Had we been made aware that the storage option of the bed frame would raise the mattress to at least four feet from the floor we would have chosen differently. Now, we have $6600 dollars worth of furniture that is not usable as it was sold. We do not have storage and we cannot use the mechanics that raise and lower the head and foot that we went to Bob's to purchase. That was entirely our goal. A mattress that would provide for our need and desire. I am a disabled veteran with a TBI and broken back. We wanted to improve our bed rest. Our original mattress was taken by the delivery crew and we were left with a mess in our yard to clean up and furniture that is not what we thought we purchased.

    We eventually received a call from Jason(?) late that afternoon, after we believed it was done. He listened to our experience and said he was sorry. He also said he wanted to "make it right" and in his view was to give us a Bob's gift card for $200. About half the delivery fee. We accepted as in our view that was not "right" but better than nothing. We have not received that gift card though. Told it would arrive as an email but, nothing resembling an apology has ever been received from Bob's furniture. It is my opinion that everyone would do better shopping elsewhere, anywhere else. $6600 dollars later, we have furniture, it makes us angry to remember how it came to be ours.

    The one mirror included with the set, still rests on the floor, also unusable. We certainly did not save any money by shopping at Bob's and I doubt customer satisfaction is anywhere on the priority list at Bob's or even included in the sales training. We feel stolen from and very very angry at the treatment received. Bob's Furniture is all about making money at any cost. Customer satisfaction is not something anyone working for "Bob" considers in their sales technique. Sales, at any cost except customer satisfaction is key so anyone deciding to believe the many television commercials would do well to remember they are looking at and listening to "commercials". That are complete trickery and they certainly did trick us. Be aware and very careful and ask for complete information about everything they consider buying and watch well at installation and sign NOTHING until you are certain you have what you paid for!!!!

    I have suffered emotional damage, economical loss, and my children have suffered physical pain because of Bob’s furniture. I purchased over $4,000 in Bob’s furniture kids collection. In September of 2017 I bought two twin Chadwick bed frames along with box springs and mattresses, I purchased a Madison full size and I also purchased another full size set along with the bed frame. We moved into a new apartment and purchased all new furniture from Bob's. In the end of May of 2018 I noticed my son woke up with bug bites. I first thought it to be mosquito bites as the window was open. A week later I notice I more bites and he was in so much pain. I called to have an exterminator come to check and he found that the bed frames were infested as well as the box springs of all four beds purchased from Bob’s. His professional feedback was that the furniture was already infested when delivered and the bugs were starting to produce colonies.

    I immediately called Bob’s furniture to place my complaint and concern and in the hopes that they would do the right thing and remove the furniture and refund me. Instead I was told there was nothing for them to do. I was told that closing my complaint account. I was also hung up on when speaking to supposedly call center supervisors. I later that day did research and came to find that this has been a recurring situation for Bob’s furniture and they have been sued a few times. I don't recommend purchasing from them. The quality of the furniture isn't the best and the cost that I have spent now wasn't worth the "discount" Bob’s Furniture offers. Unsatisfied customer.

    I have bad experience with their product quality. After couple of years of using the leather couches, the leather starts to come out and peels. Even I bought their warranty and even they granted me at the sales time that if I buy the extra warranty, I would be cover beyond the manufacture warranty. But all that was a lie. I submitted a claim and get rejected. They don't stand behind their product because they know it is terrible quality. Cushions started go soft after less than a year and they will NOT replace them even though I have the warranty. They are a ripoff. I will never buy from them again.

    I purchased a red sofa with Chaise and ottoman. The first year it broke. They sent a technician out and he said you have to be skinny to sit on this couch where I am a little on the heavy side. He also said that this particular furniture was for a playroom. He would never have one in his living room. He was also overheard saying racial things. Ok. After he left I called Bob's and they replaced it.

    Now one side of couch leather is peeling and cracked so bad that it even ripped. Haven't sat on the couch for weeks. Technician came and said it was a factory malfunction. But now they are disputing the technician and saying they have to stand by the investigators. But when the first technicians denied me they said they had to stand by him. Bait and switch. They stand behind whoever denies you the replacement and not their customer. I would like a refund on the couch because the whole time I've had problems with this couch.

    Although we are satisfied with the furniture itself we are BEYOND frustrated with the delivery process. Originally slated for a Sunday they had to reschedule. Scheduled for Thursday May 24th in the morning. My husband took the morning off to wait for the delivery. Did not arrive and we started calling around maybe 11 am. They apologized and rescheduled for between 1:15 and 5:15 pm. My husband had to take the REST OF THE DAY OFF to wait for these guys. And what happened? They failed to show up. An entire day wasted waiting on what we paid $165.00 for. When we called and finally got through to someone the delivery was rescheduled for Tuesday TWO WEEKS LATER. In the meantime we had NO BEDROOM furniture. For almost three weeks. Unbelievably inconvenient.

    They DID arrive promptly for that delivery but offered a measly $25 credit for the inconvenience. They called what happened on Thursday 5/24 a "failed delivery attempt". How is it a failed attempt, we were home all day and no attempt was made! $25 is NOT going to make us whole and in fact left a horrible taste in our mouths with regard to the entire Bob's experience. My full $169.99 should be refunded at the VERY least. My Sales Associated was Stuart **. If this situation is rectified I would consider modifying this review but I attempted to get resolution from a Customer Service specialist (and a supervisor) to no avail so I'm not optimistic.

Call Guardian and it took me 2 hrs to talk to someone.

    I talk to Robert/ Bobby. Never explained that I had to say step for step how the frame was cracked and I was unsure because he was very short and impatient and making sounds on the phone like I was getting on his nerves so I said we was moving it and it cracked. He submits the claims and it’s denied. I asked why he says because that is not a accidental. You didn’t say someone fell into etc. I said while you was being short with me and I’m frustrated and I just said the one thing. Didn’t know I had to go into details.

I purchased the Bob's Low Rider Adjustable Device for mattress 9/2017. However, my son is quadriplegic, on a Vent for breathing and a trach. He has been In & out of the hospital for surgeries leading up to this nightmare of being ventilated. He has had very bad lung disorders with a collapsed lung, pneumonia, etc. The bed was supposed to help with him being able to sit up so it’s better for his lungs.

    However, on May 1, 2018 the mechanism broke down. I made many, many calls each time explaining the horrible situation to yet another scatterbrained person answering phone what seemed like “their first day At work,”. They had “me” purchase a new part for $60.00 that took 2 weeks and several more calls to encounter. They sent 2 different mechanics with “NO Parts” on hand.

    Meanwhile... I explained the severity of the situation, these 2 individuals came here & saw my son's situation. BUT... no one felt it was a matter of life or death??? He could’ve built up more secretions & wound up back in hospital. This Bob's company moves like snails... they “yes” on phone & do as they please. Too many different people not knowing how to handle an emergency dilemma such as this. And, my sister & I WENT to the Nesconset/LakeGrove Store here in Long Island, NY in person.

Now my sectional has a stain and we paid for goof proof warranty. Made the phone call and guess what. If you get a stain from using your couch it is not covered.

    I went into Bob’s Discount Furniture in Monroeville, PA on February 24, 2018 with the excitement of purchasing new Bedroom furniture. That was the last good moment I had in this experience. While I was browsing the store with my three children and my Mom, my Mom who was recovering from a recent back surgery, thought it would be easier to sit with my youngest child, who is a very energetic 3 year old and was just waking from a nap. My Son was very excited and wanted to sit on each couch. My mom was following him around to keep him contained as much as possible when one of the Salesmen – Pedro - told her, “Your child needs beat!” – I should have followed my instinct and left at that moment, but being excited for new furniture, I continued my shopping. Now, I do realize an energetic child can be frustrating at times, however, there is never an acceptable excuse to say something like that to a customer!

    I did speak to the Manager eventually regarding this comment and was told that they spoke with him and they can assure me that he is very sorry that he said that. I also asked for a phone number for a corporate office and was told to search on Google. I did and was re-routed to the local stores. I had selected a bedroom set, but another one had really caught my eye that was a little more expensive than I had anticipated, but was told by several different workers that they have a 90 days same as cash program. So, I opted to go through their program - Acceptance Now for the 90 days same as cash they offered.

    I made regular payments the first two months and went into the store on May 17th (a full week before the 90 days was up) and was told to pay 300+ more than what should have been my remaining balance. I was told at this time that only 80% of my payments already made during that time was going towards my furniture payment. I have combed through my rental agreement looking for where it says that I would only be paying 80% of my total owed during that 90 day period and could find nothing explaining these additional charges!

    The Sales Associate that was working with me could not explain nor even figure out the additional charges as well. This is clearly a ‘bait and switch’ tactic and extremely unfair to the unsuspecting consumer who trusts in an organization to know their companies policies and procedures. I strongly believe that I was misled on several levels during this purchase and will be certain to convey this message to anyone that I encounter that is looking to purchase furniture. Avoid Bob's Discount Furniture! I can assure you that I will never purchase another item from this chain and I strongly urge everyone to stay away from this and every Bob’s Discount Furniture Store. They are not upfront with their pricing and their Same as Cash policy, nor do they exhibit the least amount of courtesy or respect for their customers.

He discussed the promotion and sounded good, but never did he say that after 12 months you will be getting all this interest.

I was in shock that on Tuesday after paying my monthly bill my acct# jumped from $679.00 to $1313.00 due to $632.00 of interest was added on to my acct. I had work double shifts to pay that acct# down so that I can keep my credit report looking good. My chest sunk into my stomach when I read the new statement. I immediately called Wells Fargo because I knew they made a mistake. The agent that talked to me started telling me about dates and different terms that I was not privy too and I began to be upset.

So I take another day off of work so that I can get my delivery for the rest of my bedroom set. 2 days later and no one calls me or shows up like they promised. I call into customer service again, and they tell me they forgot to load the pieces into the truck AGAIN. The next delivery date is a week from now. Unbelievably terrible experience. DO NOT GO TO BOB’S. Beware. I wish I had read more reviews before purchasing. Between this website and others, there is overwhelmingly negative reviews. How this company is still in business is crazy. Extremely unprofessional customer service. Terrible terrible terrible experience at Bob’s rip-off furniture.

    Along with all these other poor reviews, here comes another. Not only was I on hold for 3 hours and I did not receive a phone call back when told I would. Customer service lady Gabby was so unprofessional and nasty over the phone. Cutting me off when trying to explain what happened to much couch, and not caring of my concerns. Asked to speak to a supervisor and was lied to stating they were in a meeting. Not only was I treated like a useless human via phone I was told they couldn’t send a technician to the house.

    I PAY THOUSANDS of dollars to this trash bag of a company and pay for the extended Guardian warranty for what? This company will go down in shambles & like everyone else said it’s a gimmick. Not only did the sales rep mislead my husband & I into thinking Bob's is the best, we’ll it's not. They’re a big scam, and I would never deal with the nasty warranty agents again. After being on hold a ridiculous wait period, and being talked to like it was an inconvenience to them, other measures were taken. Warning for all to take these reviews into consideration before purchasing through them, or you’ll be on here next writing an infuriating story of your experience.

    Been trying to resolve for 6 months. Purchased a dining room set for over $800. Everything wobbles, dents in wood, glass has scratches. No one wants to help since they already have my payment. DO NOT PAY CASH!!! Now the screws have come out of the wood on chairs, can not sit on these, 2 out of 4. I am sure it is only a matter of time and the others will fall off. They are located in a difficult spot to put back, so useless. Useless, just like Bob's Furniture. This is a company which will go out of business soon. They are a FAD and going to get as much $$ then, move on. Please don't purchase from this company. Go to a place where YOU MEAN SOMETHING and are VALUED. Not here.

    I purchased couches in 2016 and found that the leather is peeling, when I contacted Bob's about it the representative at the store did say that it was bonded leather and that they no longer sell this product because of the issues of peeling. So I started a claim with Bob's Furniture and sent all the supporting pictures and they denied my claim because they state that that is normal wear and tear? What!!! Since when do couches only last less than a year? 1000.00 later and now I'm stuck with these peeling couches that are disgusting to look at. Foolish me. Before I had this issue resolved I decided to purchase a bedroom set for my daughter which I JUST CANCELLED, they don't deserve my business or anyone else's!!! Buyers beware!!!

    Leather lounge chair arm (less than 2 yrs old) is peeling. The repair did not fix it. They used markers to fix it and of course it does not match. They used a cheap leather. Wish I had known, I would have paid a little more and got something of quality. Very disappointed. Will not recommend Bob's to anyone.

    Purchased a sofa bed, chair and ottoman ($1100). Sofa bed leg hinge broke at a weak point in the metal. Goof Proof (Guardian) would not cover it based on a phone call, because it told them it broke when my son was getting out of bed. By their narrow definition, this is not an "accidental" damage. Was told to call Bob's since they have a 5 year manufacturers warranty on what they call motion beds. Well, Bob's sent a "certified" technician to look at the bed and take pictures. I was called several hours later by a representative who apologized and said the tech did not believe it was a manufacturers defect. The tech was here for a total of maybe 5 minutes, looked at the broken part for 30 seconds, took 2 photos and left.

    If the piece did not break accidentally, then it is a defect; if not a defect then it is an accident. This was not a case of a group of 5 year olds jumping on the bed, which would be negligent. Very upset with the support from Bob's, OH here's the kicker to all of this... Bob's tells me on the phone that I cannot even purchase the metal work (folding frame) for this sofa, which is less than 5 years old, and the only thing I can do is purchase a new sofa bed. I believe that that the TECH, who works for Bob's, knew that this would need to be a full replacement and therefore recommended to Bob's that they not back the warranty.

    I am writing to request a refund on the Goof Proof insurance purchased with my furniture in 2016. Recently I tried to file a claim for a rip in my couch. The insurance company told me that because it was in the seam it was not covered, that I should use the 5-year warranty since it was in the seam. You sent a repairman out but he also said it was not a manufacturer issue because it was ripped by a person. Which it was caused by a school bag getting snagged. So we called the insurance company back and they said they would not cover it because it was in the seam. This is a bait and switch scheme. I am requesting either (1) the couch be repaired or replaced (2) a refund for the Goof Proof protection.

    I purchased $8300 worth of furniture from Bob's. The biggest headache is their delivery system and their exchange policies. Bob's Furniture promised me for this breakfast with Bob's delivery scheduled from 6:30 to 9:30 in the morning. On the day of the delivery, the delivery driver just decided to show up at 2:30 in the afternoon which I am already at work. So, I rescheduled the delivery again (It is hard to schedule the availability of our condo's elevator). So, the second time the furniture was delivered, I have to keep on waiting and waiting until when the delivery will be coming. I have to cancel my other activity just to accommodate the delivery. As a customer, it is so inconvenient. Bob's will deliver when it is convenient for them. As the goods were delivered, my bedroom was assembled invertedly and the nightstand drawer was broken.

    I have to schedule again and waited for the whole day for the guy to invert my bedroom set to the right place. As of my nightstand, they technician discovered that parts of the drawer was broken. I have to wait for at least a month for the parts to be mailed in my condo and then I have to call them again to scheduled for the repair. I am still waiting for the parts as of the moment and worst scenario, Bob's has no way of tracking when that parts will be delivered.

    Regarding the return policy, I decided to exchange my mattress. They will exchange the mattress but not exchange the power base. I tried to switch from queen to king size because it is not comfortable for us. The problem is if I could not exchange the powerbase base to a king size, what will support my king size mattress if I exchange it? Damn damn policy. I contacted Bob's customer care and they stated that "ONCE THE PRODUCT IS DELIVERED YOU CAN NOT RETURNED IT OR EXCHANGED IT.'

    My salesperson named is ** from Bob's Furniture located at 4825 Golf Road, Skokie Illinois 60077. After I bought all the furniture, ** does not give me a damn to help me with the situation. In fact, he is the one who talked me into buying this power-based board for the bed and told me that I can exchanged or returned this power-based for the bed if it is not good for me. Also, I tried to reach out with their manager but she laughed at me over the phone and feel so sorry about the situation but can't help me at all. I contacted the customer care and talked with their two supervisor, employee number ** and **, but they just brushed me off. They both stated that there is nothing they can do. The lesson of this experience BE CAREFUL ABOUT GOING TO BOB'S FURNITURE. They are very sneaky and tricky with their advertisement.

    OK, here's how it works. When you call to file a claim (like I did within the 5 year Goof Proof Insurance coverage plan), you will be asked a bunch of questions which seem innocent. They're not. Bob's insurance provider (Guardian) will use your answers to disqualify you. In my case, I was asked when the damage occurred. Honestly, who walks around their house checking how their furniture is doing?? Unknowingly, I replied that I was not sure, but a maybe a month or two.

    Well hold the phones, you're not covered with that statement. The companies "policy" or as I call it a scam, is that you must report all damage within 1 month. Why? If I'm with the 5 year period does that matter. This was the way for the company to weasel their way out of repairing my couch. Their service people are as interested in you or your issue, and this comes through clearly. If the product wasn't such a poorly constructed piece of furniture, I wouldn't have need the fake coverage, which I am not entitled too regardless I paid $150 for. Sad sad company.

    It was time to purchase a new mattress and I decided to give Bob’s a try. After all, those commercials were catchy and I figured I’d save some money. After all, what could go wrong? Well, EVERYTHING. I made the mistake of purchasing my first mattress online. Within a night or two of sleeping on it, I knew it wouldn’t “work” for me. It felt like I had maybe an inch of memory foam on top of plywood. My fault, I didn’t try it out before I bought it. So I went in store and explained my problem. The salesman helped me out and I thought I found the replacement bed I needed. The only problem was the foundation I needed was out of stock and I’d have to wait nearly two weeks to have it delivered. It was an even exchange and delivery was free. He informed me that if I needed to return the bed again, I had up to 90 days and this time I’d have to pay for delivery.

    So here comes delivery day. I get a random phone call from their HQ (or whoever sets up delivery) out East asking me if I want to indeed cancel my delivery that day because that’s what was communicated to the delivery person. I was flabbergasted; no delivery person had contacted me and I thought my delivery was on schedule at that point. So then they were supposed to deliver in the late afternoon/early evening and I receive a phone call from the delivery person indicating they’re 10 minutes away (this is a little before 10 am)... Really? The delivery people were rude and condescending. I actually felt SHAME for returning my mattress.

    After the mattress arrived, I realized something didn’t feel “right”. The design was correct, the label was correct, but the feel is completely different. This bed is even less comfortable than the previous bed and within minutes of laying on it, all I could think is “this one is not the one I tried in the showroom”. I have given this mattress a try and it’s NOT working out. The pain and discomfort I experience daily is awful... I can’t sleep at night because I can’t get comfortable. I have resorted to going to a chiropractor because of the problems this mattress and the previous mattress have caused. At this point, I can’t even sleep on said mattress and am sleeping on my couch.

    I have called Bob’s to see what my options are and was blown away by what I heard. They informed me because I already exchanged once, the only thing they can do is have a technician come out and “inspect” it. Inspect what, exactly? Mattress comfort is very subjective. I don’t need a random human “reporting” what “should” be comfortable for me when they know absolutely nothing about me at all. To add to the agitation, I will have to wait an entire week for them to come out and then await this “report”.

    To add insult to injury, remember what that good ‘ol sales person told me? Apparently not at all true... And had I wanted to return it, I would have only had THIRTY DAYS for the second mattress. That completely contradicts their website and the documents I was given at time of purchase. All I want is a solid night’s sleep. I spent at least $1000 on this mattress set and I can’t even use it because it’s causing so much pain and discomfort leading to a sleepless night. I haven’t slept well in at least 60 days. And I feel helpless and hopeless that this situation will be resolved any time soon.

The table, aside from showing all scuff marks on it, got a chip in it, few months after purchase. I called Bob's, sent pictures and they told me not an issue for them. Call Guardian (Goof Proof). I called Guardian, sent them pictures, followed up with them, had to resend pictures and had to chase them. After weeks/months of chasing I finally got someone who told me it's not an accident, it chipped from normal use. Not an accident? I chipped it purposely? Of course it was an accident, it happened accidentally, does that mean something different?

    Guardian told me to call Bob's. It should be manufacture warranty, so back again to Bob's, long story short they told me their position is they will not cover my claim. They sell me insurance, I pay for it, but won't cover my claim! I have no one else to escalate to, getting in touch with someone at Bob's and Guardian is very difficult.

    My Mom and myself have purchased furniture from My Bob's discount furniture such as couches, bed frame and table and chairs and to be honest their quality of furniture is not the best quality. Looks are deceiving, the furniture wears out rather rapid and does last years as it should. I purchased a $2000 recliner set and have had their "technicians" come to my home multiple times to try and correct the fact that all of the recliners individually as well as the center piece tip over. The couches do not stay linked together, they come apart very easily. When in the reclined position, if you were to lean forward a bit or if a child were to lean against the foot rest area the couches will tip forward.

    Also if anyone sat on the couch (in the reclined position or not) and leaned a bit over the arm rest side the couch would disconnect and tip to the side as if it would fall over as well as if someone leaned on the back of the couch it would also disconnect and tilt back. As humans with reflexes our bodies would react and not allow the full tilt over but a younger or small child will take the fall with the couch if unaware. I have young children. I've expressed this to My Bob's customer care several times and deemed the couches unsafe, they said... There's nothing they can do because the tech said they were up to standard because it's how My Bob's made them. Now how is that acceptable? How is that ok?

    So after the Tech left I was on the phone with customer care (who doesn't really care) for over an hour with the Rep. who wasn't even saying much or giving me answers because she was waiting for someone to become available and tell her what to do over some chat line just to end up telling me there was nothing she can do. What a horrible experience. I won't ever purchase anything from them ever again. I will also be cancelling my My Bob's credit card. I will stick to Raymour & Flanigan and Ashley furniture in which they have better quality furniture and better customer service. I had also paid extra for the My Bob's goof proof warranty which is just a crock of ** and their way of getting more money out of you. It did nothing for me in this situation. Shame on you My Bob's Discount Furniture. I will also let all of my family and friends know not to shop at My Bob's!

He just wanted to sell me something then he walked away from me. Once I found a manager they scheduled my replacement. I have had this couch under a year (still under warranty) and it ripped. We called customer service and said they would either give us a new couch or give us one for the same price, they said the material our couch was made out of was defective. So we went with the same couch just new material. They delivered me a ripped couch 2 days later! And the driver set up a new delivery of another couch!

    Fine, 2 days later a driver comes and parks halfway down my driveway and I say, "The entrance is back here," and he yells at me, "I FIGURED AS MUCH!" Now he comes into my home and asks me where the couch is and I show him, he asked why I was returning it and I said it ripped! He says, "You're returning it because of this?" I reply, "Yes!" He then tells me, "Well that's ridiculous," and tells me karma is gonna get me for this and it will be worse for me next time! (AT THIS POINT I'M PISSED!)

    He proceeds to dismantle the couch in my living room and turns to me and says, "Your floor is dirty. You need to clean that!" (YA THINK!) He proceeds to bring in the new couch hitting the roof of the staircase on the landing denting it, slams it into my support beam and railing and gashed it and then slammed the second piece into my doorframe of my outside door! He puts it together in my living room, tells me that they didn't want to give me a new couch that's why the other driver didn't give me the couch the first time around and it is too much work for them to bring it upstairs! That's why he said to you it's ripped! SO now I HAVE lost 2 days off of work because of this **!

    He then leaves and leaves all the garbage in my driveway of what the new couch was wrapped in! My husband tells me I'm too nice and should have yelled at him but that gets you nowhere.

    This past December I ordered the Tuscany bedroom set from BOB’S. Came out to $3,015. I thought it was really nice and pretty affordable for what it was. I opened a Bob’s Discount Furniture credit card through Wells Fargo to make the purchase. The day of my delivery I was all excited until I saw the furniture was all damaged and broken. The delivery guy told me he would take pictures of it and someone would come to replace what was broken. I had total faith for whatever reason and made a payment of $800 on the BOB’S credit card because I like to pay off my debt fairly quickly.

    2 weeks go by and nobody contacted me about replacing the furniture so I call the store, the store tells me they have no knowledge of anything and that they would “do me a favor” with a one-time full replacement for brand new furniture (which I had ordered to begin with). So a week later a new team comes and they open up boxes of furniture at the front door in the snow and those pieces were broken as well! I denied the order. Called back. They apologized and said they would come again... Second time they come they have the wrong set altogether and ask my boyfriend to climb in the back of their 27-foot box truck to open boxes with them to see which was the right furniture. They only had one nightstand that was right and told me it was taken out of someone’s house and wasn’t new.

    I denied the order again and this time called up super angry, they assured me next delivery would go right. Third time they showed up, I had taken off work to ensure this went right and two guys come with MARKERS telling me they will color is where the dents and scratches were and try to fix it themselves!!! I told them to get out of my house. Called up Bob’s again to say, “Wtf is going on here!?” They contact the warehouse and call me back saying, “We’re sorry. We just can’t get this right and we would like to refund you for everything and return the furniture!” I was upset and disappointed but said ok...

    So the delivery people come again a week later but only pick up 2 pieces of furniture, I said, “Why!?” They said they don’t actually work for BOB’S and they get their assignment from the warehouse and it was only to pick up two pieces so I called the store again and they told me not to worry let them take what they can and they will schedule another pick up...

    Second time the guys come and again same story they only can pick up the bed and the nightstand! And third time another week later I get a text on my phone saying, “Unfortunately the pick up was canceled due to inclement weather,” and then to my surprise delivery team comes a day early to say they were getting ahead of the storm and were there to pick up the rest! I said, “Fine.” I was relieved as I already had bought new furniture and this stuff was now an eyesore in the way! So all the furniture is out of my house and now I’m calling about my refund and they say that they had to wait until all pieces were back in the warehouse...

    I wait a week later and they said all pieces had been returned issued me a returned receipt via email but told me it would take 30 days to go back on my card. A month goes by and guess what? No refund! So I call my bank to complain about this fraud and then call Bob’s to ask again wtf is going on and they said, “Well we can’t do anything about it because you complained to your bank and now it’s being investigated.” So another month goes by and I get a letter from my bank THAT THEY SIDED WITH BOB’S AND I WOULD GET No REFUND! I called Bob’s again furious and they said the furniture was never returned! I called my bank again and submitted evidence of the return and the case was opened again and I’m still waiting 4 months still no refund... beware of this company. They are pure scam artists!

Technician said had to be replaced, another 2 weeks and new one gets delivered today and again damaged, called customer service and they said that they would deliver again on Saturday. So after missing 3 days of work and having to cancel plans for Saturday, they informed us that they would give us $75 gift certificate for inconvenience, that does not even cover lost wages (3 days off of work) and having to cancel plans for next delivery, and all the aggravation of dealing with this situation.

I paid twice the next month, but the third month I paid twice but was charged a late fee.

    I have paid $500.00/month on a statement of $204.00/month and been charged a late fee every time! Are you Serious??? The bedroom we received had 2 broken drawers in the chest. Reps came and were unable to correct and another chest was sent...with the same broken drawers! My husband and I had to go to the Bob's where we purchased it...on New Year's Day no less...to get a slide assembly from another dresser that my husband installed himself. Then we get this BS about 2 days late when paying 2x the min due??? Nice furniture, HORRIBLE CS and WORST financing.

    I bought protection plan for my sofa set, I have tears which the stuffing is exposed on the seam which doesn’t look like it was stitched from the manufacturer and the frame where the sofa and chaise meet are bent in and after numerous calls both of their technicians reported that it was how it is made. The seams are reported as normal wear and tear and there is nothing they can do about it. I finally asked for a refund on my protection plan in which they now indicated that it’s nonrefundable.

    The protection plan states it covers accidental tears and stains and they have written it as normal wear and tear, my sofa isn’t even a year old yet and states it should be still under manufacturers warranty! I have purchased a bedroom set, sofa set and kitchen table and chairs in which 2 have protection plans which are useless! Just want you to spend extra money and don’t cover anything! I just wanted them to at least fix the tear or replace like they’re advertising! I will not be purchasing from them again!

    We bought close to $7000 worth of furniture from their Wilkes Barre store back in September 2017. The first time they delivered, the couch and dining room set were the wrong colors. They redeliver in October 2017 and got the couch right, but dining room set was still wrong. I spoke with Lori, the store manager, and found the dining room set on the showroom floor was a different color than what they were actually selling to customers. I did not like the color and did not find anything else on the floor that I liked, so she said she would issue us a refund for the dining room set.

    That was in October 2017 and it is now April 2018 and we have still not received our refund!!! I have spoken with Lori many times and she promised to take care of it, but never did. Finally, the last time I spoke with her, she told me that corporate offices show that I took ownership of the dining room set, which she knows I did not, and they would not issue me a refund due to this glitch in paperwork.

    I have contact corporate 6 times (via phone and email) and have never received any correspondence back. I am out approximately $1200 and cannot get the company to talk with me about this issue. I will be seeking legal counsel and hope to get my money back. Buyers beware, some of the items they show in their stores are not the items you will get and DO NOT take any verbal promises from them, get EVERYTHING in writing!!!

    I ordered a bedroom set for my granddaughter. Waited 10 days for delivery because they said the footboard was on back order. On the day of deliver, they keep pushing this time back. It finally came 2 hours late. The delivery guys were very professional but they set up the bedroom set and then realized there were no slats for the bed frame to put the mattress and box spring on. The delivery guy suggested we go to Home Depot or Lowe’s and have them cut 3 slats for us. Very irritating at the point. Called customer service to see if can just come pick up the slats at the store and they told me no. I would have to have them delivered in 5 days. I told them that was unacceptable because I waited long enough. They told me that was policy. Or they could put them as an add on which may or may not be delivered the next day.

    After an hour of the rep and manager treating me like I was slow and simple and lying to me, which I called the girl out on several times, then she told me the manager told her to tell me those lies, they still would not help me. I asked if I could be compensated for my inconvenience, the slats that I didn’t get and the extra time I had to take off of work. They told they couldn’t discuss compensation over the phone with me. WHAT??? Needless to say I ended going to Lowe’s and purchasing the slats just so my granddaughter could sleep in her newly remodeled bedroom that I paid over $800.00 for. I will never purchase from them again and I suggest you don’t either...

    Worst customer service! No help, no solutions, bad delivery team. They were "unable" to deliver an item stating that they didn't had access to the building; they didn't ring the bell or call me so someone can go and open the door, someone call from a private number to informed me that they have left the building because no one was home, there was 3 adults waiting at my apartment, they never call so someone can just go downstairs and open the door. Been waiting on them for more than 10 days to deliver the couch and every time I call, the only solution I get offered is to wait for another delivery date.

    I guess the delivery team was in a hurry today, because I called 7 minutes after I receive the text message confirming the delivery and the response from Bob's was that the team was already done for the day, mind you that my delivery time window was from 1:15 pm to 5:15 pm, it was around 2:30pm when this happened and they were done for the day? And that I need to wait for next available day for delivery, which will be in 2 to 4 more business days. This make me question their compromise on serving the clients and giving great customer service. I have been dealing with them for over 2 weeks, 1st time they got the wrong couch, second time the delivery team stated that they could not fit the couch through the door, and after I change my order to make it more convenient, the 3rd time they didn't even ring the bell, took a picture of them outside and stated that they were "unable to deliver".

    Bought furniture from Bob's Discount Furniture in 2014 with goof-proof (not the only ones). In 2017 the leather on the loveseat alone started cracking and peeling and the cushions on the couch and loveseat started separating. Called and one person came out to tell me it was not his department. Called the other department for them to tell me there was nothing they could do. I let it go... Bad choice. Now it's gotten worse. I wrote to Corporate office with pictures.

    Someone got back to me to tell me they could give me x amount of dollars for the loveseat alone. Great!!! But still I can't get matching loveseat. :( So I asked being that I bought it as a set if I can get credit for the couch also so I can at least get a matching set. They said they can't do that. I want to speak to someone in the corporate headquarters. Look up my name and address and you will find me, Bob's Discount Furniture. That's if they even read these negative reviews. Until this is resolved I will not be a loyal customer anymore. Hope they do the right thing.

    First time we purchased our furniture at Bob's Discount Furniture we were not satisfied at all. A piece of chandelier fell off on the (Bob's) glass table and broke the glass. Goof Proof didn't work for that type of accident (they told us to contact home insurance- insane!). After that, living set started peel - not covered again. We said never again. But, two years ago, we needed a cheap piece of furniture for kids bedroom and ended up in Bob's store. While walking through the store we stopped next to sectional that had interesting design. Sales lady started her job - we said we're not interested in purchasing because of previous experience... The manager took over, apologizing and promising new material, better quality as well as new company (Goof Proof protection- extra cost, but covers everything, accept pets damage). Deceive!!! We purchased kids bedroom (not just a piece), dining set and the sectional.

    After everything arrived, sectional wasn't aligned/leveled properly, 2 chairs had rough edges and stains from double coats of paint. Everything started squeaking soon after, sectional started sinking. We were ok with that, it didn't affect safety aspect, just esthetic issue, not big deal for us now (while raising little children). And here we are... tough winter of 2018. Three kids (6 months, 22 months and 6 years), all different kinds of viruses, for several weeks. Vomiting everywhere, including the sectional... (I did my best to clean it as soon as possible, but wouldn't let my kids exhausted and sick just to wipe pieces off something I paid warranty for). Calling Guardian, 40 minutes with agent, so many questions and information, to the thinnest details, requesting pictures, AND at the end our damage/stains were covered, WO-HOO!!! We're scheduled in 3 weeks (between 10 am and 2 pm).

    11.30 am the technician is calling and announcing possibilities of being late. 1.30 pm he's calling again and canceling appointment because of snow starting late that evening (6 pm). Next appointment in 2 weeks. The technician is showing at my door at 5 pm (instead 10 am-2 pm). I'm paying babysitter for 2 kids twice, taking time off at work. The guy is different than the one they provided me his name and picture. He's coming inside pretty much with his hands in pockets, asking for furniture he needs to repair (not to clean). What a blame- he couldn't see stains on sectional in the living room from the dining room. Once he came closer, he said, "These stains are too old" (yes sir, 5 weeks since I called your company! I'm sorry we've been using our paid off furniture!). He's taking MY baby wipes (no asking). It doesn't work. Asking about protection kit/lotion, the way I was cleaning it... blah blah blah.

    When he couldn't excuse anything, he took a multiple pictures of each section and said he will suggest (to his boss) to replace the leather on specific areas (BUT IT TAKES A LONG TIME!!!). Week later I received a letter we are not covered anymore (for bodily fluids stains). I called them back (Bob's and Guardians again), wasted my time... Bob's customer service agent hung up the phone. Guardians one said: they changed first design (covered to not) according to technician report (discoloration on furniture). I claim it as stain not discoloration! I asked if he could prove it? They couldn't answer my question. Then I asked about pictures he took- no answer again. I'm concluding he could report wrong address or nobody at home... she's not responding. I also offered the pediatric's report of dates and reasons for our visits...

    All she did, she offered me an e-mail address to discuss about the report... I said: "why, to waste even more time?" She said: "probably, yes" and I hung up. I wasn't picky at first on esthetic factor and noise, but this is dirty and contaminated. Not safety to live with! This is such a good example of waste of a few thousand dollars and one disappointing experience. I'll keep spreading bad words. STAY AWAY FROM 'BOB'S DISCOUNT FURNITURE'. IT'S TRASH!!!

    I have had a very negative first experience with Bob’s in Robinson and unless this is made right, I will not be a future customer. I was sold a Libre 2 sectional in coffee with a Bob-o-pedic Sleeper which needed to be special ordered on January 26th 2018. I was assured by salesman “Tall Bald Dave” that the delivery would be ready in 6-8 weeks. This was reiterated by the customer service rep that took the full payment the day I purchased the couch. It is now April 2nd, and no couch or eta. I began calling at the 6 week mark (around March 9th). It was explained to me by Tom at Robinson that it looked like the estimated completion was March 30th (9 week mark), but that if it updated to sooner I would be notified. I checked in once a week after that to be told the same. Tom stated during one of my check ins that he would be able to do a credit once the couch came in on the 30th.

    On March 30th, I waited until around 8pm and called again, this time speaking with Karlean. She stated that the estimated completion date was now April 6th, and that she saw Tom had set the expectation for a credit. I stated that despite that, I would like to escalate my call as to get some accountability around this completion date so that the next one given to me would be the actual date, to which I was told that was not possible. “Everything is done through email these days so there is no way to get any better information from the manufacturer” (so much wrong with that statement). So I asked how is best to voice my displeasure to the right people in this digital age since there is no better way and she stated “Facebook, Google, Yelp”.

    At this point, it has been 9 weeks and 3 days with no guarantee of when I will receive my couch, and based on the other comments about the deliveries, I might be in for more negative surprises. I paid $1,507 up front for a couch with the expectation that it would be in my house within 6-8 weeks. I am just asking now for a date range this can be guaranteed and a level of accountability due to a purchase made based on improper expectations. If this is corrected, I will re-rate and edit my comment based on resolution. I will be writing the same on yelp, Facebook and... Google. As directed.

    We gave the sales guy there at Bob's the easiest sale ever. We knew exactly what we wanted: a 5 piece Gatsby dining set in grey. We paid for upgrades -- we wanted it for our Easter dinner. Since we were ordering on St. Patrick's Day we figured that would be well in advance. When the set arrived a week later, the delivery guy refused to put it together since the pedestal to hold up the table was broken. He said he'd process it and deliver a new pedestal. Ok, no big deal.

    Soonest re-delivery date was the following Tuesday. Tuesday arrives, no set. We call, the warehouse canceled the delivery. Why? The "refund" was processed wrong. We told them, "We don't need a refund, we need a pedestal." "Oh! Ok, we'll schedule that and get it out to you. Soonest delivery date is Thursday." Fine.

    Thursday arrives, no delivery. We call. Why? The warehouse canceled the delivery. "Oh, it was processed wrong! We'll fix it!" Following Tuesday, no set. We call... this goes on and on and on. Three weeks! Finally we realize we are never getting an unbroken table. Never. The delivery people and warehouse CANNOT get their act together. They keep canceling the delivery for unknown reasons. Meanwhile we're left with a table top and unopened boxes in our dining space.

    The Friday before Easter, we cancel the order and demand they give us a refund and come pick up the remnants of the unusable table. Soonest pickup day? TUESDAY. We had to eat out for Easter dinner. If they do not show up to get the table tomorrow (Tuesday!) we will issue a chargeback on our credit card. What a waste of time and effort. And the sales guy loses his commission, Bob's loses customers -- all because their warehouse's head was up their behinds. Very very very disappointed.

    I purchased a chair and ottoman from Bob's Discount Furniture. I opted not to purchase the warranty because of bad reviews pertaining to company honoring the warranty appropriately. I purchased the chair November 2017. Delivery was scheduled for 6:45 a.m. I assumed I was their first stop, however my delivery wasn’t made until after 10:00 a.m. Delivery status kept changing and updating. After super nice guys delivered, I was asked to let them photograph chair to show no damage. They apparently missed a small tear near back leg that I noticed just recently. Chair has not been moved since set up. Noticed tear when I dropped throw on floor and bent to pick it up.

    Since I have no proof of its origin and time frame I decided to just live with it. So small and not noticeable unless you’re crawling on floor behind chair. I was fine with chair about a week ago (Today is April 2, 2018). I was sitting in chair and leaned on right arm with blended elbow. I heard and felt wood cracking under the upholstery. It’s as if the wood underneath is dry rotted or simply extremely thin with hardly any padding. Now I can feel about a 12 inch groove along the arm of chair. Other arm of chair seems extremely fine and firm.

    I guess I’m stuck with this chair until wood finally pushes through upholstery. This is not a fix issue, a replace issue. I didn’t buy the warranty. Based on reviews it wouldn’t cover this anyway. I am beyond disappointed with my purchase from Bob's Discount Furniture. I will never buy from them again. Beware of the commercials that says furniture has Bob's memory foam inside. Just glad I only purchased Chair and Ottoman. So far the ottoman is fine. Signed, Very Unhappy Customer.

    I ordered a living room set: loveseat, sofa, cocktail table, end tables, and lamps. Delivery was scheduled on a Saturday. Before that delivery I wanted to add a TV console to the order. They told me it had to be on a separate order and because the Sat. delivery date was locked out, I had to have a second delivery date. That meant I had to be home for a four hour window both days. Saturday comes and they deliver the first order. The three piece reclining sofa was delivered with two right sides and a center. Left side was missing. The extra right side had to go back.

    Also, one of the lamps was missing a part and couldn't be assembled, so it had to go back. And they didn't put the wheels on the cocktail table. They left a mess in the street with the wrappings. I had to pick them up. Later I realized the cocktail table had broken parts on the drawers and a nick in the wood. Several calls back and forth got me a replacement cocktail table to come with the sofa piece, the TV console and the replacement lamp in the next delivery. Just prior to that delivery I received a call that their systems had been down the night I called to place the TV console order and so it couldn't be entered. So I gave my credit card number again, no problem. Except that now it was too late to have it delivered on Monday, so I would have to wait until Tuesday. I had to fight tooth and nail to resolve that.

    So Monday came and everything was fine, except the replacement lamp was missing the same part as the first one. And they left a mess in the street again. More follow up calls to get the lamp replaced again. I was told they would bring in two lamps into the office that Thursday and check to see if the part missing was a chronic problem. Then they would call me to pick one of them up as they expected at least one would have the part included. They never called, so I had to call and they said it was ready for me to pick up. When I complained that they didn't call, they said they did and left a message. I checked my cell phone and land phone and there were no messages there. They might have called my husband's cell phone, but I told them to call my cell phone. I am fed up and will never do business with this company again.

    Being on a limited budget, we purchased Bob's ripoff Furniture's Maggie Sofa about 3 years ago. On delivery, it was NOTHING like the floor model. The cushions felt like they were rock hard and overstuffed and the back cushions way too soft and held to the sofa frame by noisy annoying velcro that made noise every time you moved. We had the sofa one week and were so unhappy that we called our local store (Southington CT) to complain and ask what we could do. They advised us that it was already too late to make any kind of exchange, were extremely rude to us and their only solution was to put the cushions on the floor and walk on them to soften them up. Seeing we were getting nowhere (In retrospect, we should have called our credit card company and issued a complaint through them) we tried the floor routine and naturally it didn't make one bit of difference.

    I have had several sofas over the years but this one is the biggest piece of garbage we ever had the misfortune to own. Now the springs in the seat cushions are poking us when we sit, the cushions are all out of shape and there's a gap between them. The back cushions are all misshapen and it actually hurts our backs and spines to sit on the damned thing. We are at a loss because right now we don't have the money to replace it. I will NEVER and I mean NEVER do business with Bob's again.

    They do NOT stand behind their product. Their salespeople are high pressure and talk you into things you don't need and their "customer service" reps are some of the rudest people I have ever dealt with. Even the IRS people are nicer. I strongly suggest doing business elsewhere. (I have to say it's a mystery to me how this ripoff artist stays in business and grows his business to other states with his stupid commercials and his substandard furniture.) His watchword is "value" but never QUALITY. Let the buyer beware!!!

After all of her paperwork, she escorted me to the sales office downstairs to complete the deal. Gail, kind and caring, is an asset to Bob's Furniture...

    Upon delivery the two delivery men who were speaking privately to each other in Spanish informed us that they were unable to fit our pieces into our home. They did not actually try but took a picture that appeared as though they had tried. They then said that if we offered them cash they would break company policy and bring it over the balcony. We told them that wasn’t a good idea and they said there wasn’t anything else they could do and did not explain any further options we had to us. They left the pieces on our porch and had us sign “for delivery” without explaining what they were actually having us sign was a waiver taking any responsibility of the pieces off of them and onto us.

    We needed to have our family bring the pieces in (which fit) and assemble the pieces ourselves. When we called customer service to discuss the awful experience we had and told them we did not feel we got the full delivery service which we paid $130 for, we were told they would not do anything to fix the problem and since we signed the waiver and that they were not responsible also we were not able to return the pieces either.

    Also when talking to customer service we were informed that the delivery team had documented that we had refused the pieces (meaning that the pieces sitting on my porch were technically documented as being back in the truck on their way back to the warehouse) which could of resulted in a refund of over $1400 and lost merchandise instead of a refund for only $130.

    When I asked about this I was told I was misinformed and that what I was saying wasn’t true. I asked her to listen to the recorded call because that was the information I was given and the original representative had updated the system to reflect that we did in fact accept the pieces. The customer service manager was unhelpful and had no compassion for the situation we were dealing with. We are longtime Bob's customers and sadly we will not be returning customers after this experience and the unwillingness of customer care to do anything about it.

    I called Bob's in need of last year to have someone come and look at my living room set because the cushions has springs in them and it's very hard to sit on them. So they sent someone and he called customer service and the woman told me I would have the replacements by the end of January. Jan 31st arrived. No cushions, I called they to me Feb 22nd. Feb 22nd came. No cushions. I called again. Rep told me Mar 22nd.

    March 22nd came. No cushions so I called customer service she told me to call back March 23rd and maybe we can get it replaced, so I called today. Rep told me they cannot replace it and I have to wait for my cushions to arrive on 22nd. This is very unfair because I cannot entertain because I have nowhere for anyone to sit, furthermore I think this set is refurbished because I never heard springs in cushions. I bought the Goof Proof plan for What? Anyway I suggest not to buy anything from Bob's because the furniture is no good.

    STAY AWAY - What this company has become is absolutely appalling? We have been purchasing products from them for over 10 years, most recently we purchased a new bedroom set. Delivery Service was built on lie after lie starting with the driver that came to my house. They trashed my house, damaging the ceiling and the molding. Mis-installed my daughter's bed. Damaged the dresser and foot board, found out later the chest of drawers drawer was busted. Knowingly sent out damaged replacements to replace the already damaged furniture. Never contacted me on how they were going to correct the situation, instead waited until I called them. If it was one instance or one employee I would not be this vocal, but clearly there is a pattern that just cannot be ignored.

    Had a technician from Bob's come over to look at the arm on the Chaise lounge because it had collapsed when my son used the armrest to push himself up. The technician came, looked at it and called up customer service, the technician left after dialing them. When I spoke with customer service they stated it was not a manufacturer defect or an accident so it is not covered. How can a technician see through the fabric to determine it was not a defect. Now I have a Chaise lounge that has no armrest and I feel like they take advantage of the consumers with the Bob's Goof Proof.

    So I bought a couch and got the Goof Proof plan (must purchase if you buy any of this furniture, terrible quality). After a little over a year, there is a big bump in the cuddler sectional of the Charisma couch and the middle section of the loveseat. Always were off from the beginning but we were told it would settle the foam. Called Goof Proof, They said we had to call Bob's 'cause it sounds like a manufacturing problem. Bob's comes and looks at it. Guy that is here takes apart the cushions. Says, "Oh wow. There is an indent. That’s not normal." Said they will call in 24-48 hours.

    A week later I had not heard anything. So I Call helpdesk and lady says, "Oh no. He listed it as normal wear and tear, nothing we can do. You can purchase all new cushion." Normal wear and tear on a couch I can’t even sit on comfortably. Guess the customer isn’t always right at Bob's. Oh and I have a credit from Goof Proof from an ottoman that ripped. But can’t use that on cushions either. Last time I buy any of furniture from Bob's. All terrible quality and don’t last.

    Had a bedroom set delivered 2 weeks ago, set-up paid for. Delivery guys informed me there were missing parts and couldn't put the bed together and customer service will call to arrange. Spoke to customer service and they informed me parts were in stock and would be delivered to my home in 3-5 business days and to call back to arrange for a tech to come to my home and set up the bed. Also called the store manager where we bought the furniture from and he too call customer service and was told the same thing, that the parts were in stock and will be delivered to my house in 3-5 business days. After waiting a week and a half and no parts delivered, I called the store this time and was told they will call customer service to get an update and call me back since they were real busy. After a few hours, they called me back and said customer service stated they sent the parts FedEx and they should be to my home any day. That was a Thursday.

    She also stated to me to call the store back if they didn't arrive by Saturday. It is now Monday today, exactly 2 weeks after my furniture was delivered and parts missing. I call the store today and asked to speak to Eric the manager, was put on hold for about 5 minutes, and the same lady came back on and said she spoke to Eric the manager and told him what was going on and he instructed her to call customer service. She then stated customer service said the parts will be shipped out tomorrow after they get them back in stock. They just told the store last Thursday they were sent FedEx already!?! Now they haven't even been shipped. Very displeased that the manager was too busy to speak to me himself. He did refund our delivery fee but I still have a non-functioning bedroom set for going over 2 weeks now.

    I bought my first furniture in one of the Bob's in January 2016 which including "goof proof" came to a total of $3,000+, at that time I was very pleased so in December 2017 when I was moving, I decided that I was going to my local Bob's store in my new town to buy new furniture which I did, made a purchase that, including delivery, came out to $5,698.21. After all that was delivered I was still needing more furniture so I went online and ordered what I needed which included a dresser at a cost $501.13 and an Avenger Power Reclining Console Loveseat and matching Sofa as well which including delivery and taxes came to a total of $862.59 each. With that said, I am going to explain my issues below.

    In February I discovered a small tear (1 inch or so) on the stitch of one of the seats of my sofa bed that I bought in 2016 including "goof proof", I called and a tech was sent out and came home, he barely looked at the issue (he literally spent 5 minutes in my house), asked me for a phone and called customer service. He did not say anything to me, just after a moment he passed me the phone, said customer service will explain next steps and left.

    Customer service representative literally told me that "the tech said this was not an accidental damage or fabric defect because the stitch was missing and he was not able to fix it", again we are talking about a 1 inch tear on a seat which I am not sure how came to be but customer service representative was very rude and insisted that my warranty did not cover this and that tech said it was not accidental according to him and in other words he implied that I should have an accident story for this. PS, My goof proof warranty for case 1: LEATHER/VINYL: a) Leather Standard – Accidental stains caused by any food or beverage normally consumed by humans; mold and mildew stains caused by food or beverage spills; stains caused by human or pet bodily fluids; grass, grease, ballpoint pen ink, iodine, nail polish, cosmetics, lipstick, crayon, and shoe polish. Rips, cuts, punctures or burns from a single relatable occurrence.

    The worst part comes now, as I said, I bought the Avenger Power Reclining Console Loveseat and matching Sofa, my loveseat was delivered in February 13 2018 and yesterday 03/16/18 (a month after) I go to sit on it and notice it does not recline. I try to find out what is wrong with it and note that the power supply has an AC/DC converter (looks like a black brick) which had a green light that is now off, since I have the matching sofa which uses the exact same power supply I was able to find out that the loveseat AC/DC converter stopped working.

    Therefore, I call customer service right away to request a new power supply and explain what happened, I say that since I have the sofa as well I was able to identify the defective part and the representative who at first made it look as she will help ended up telling me that I "altered" my merchandise by finding out which was the defective part and therefore my 1 year included warranty was VOIDED... EXCUSE ME?

    I asked her many times that if customers are not allowed to touch their furniture why nobody says this when we buy, explained very clearly what happened and in the order it happened, requested the warranty to be sent out to my email so I can confirm what she is saying to which she said she can't and after more than an hour of contradicting herself saying that I am allowed to touch my merchandise but I am not allowed to find out what is wrong with it. She told me that for the "included year" I CANNOT CALL customer service for anything related to the power or reclining mechanism on my brand new loveseat because whoever picks up will tell me the same she said since according to her I "voided my warranty".

    I told her that I was a loyal customer who in the last few months only spent around 10k with them and that they will lose a customer for a piece which value is $55 according to her, however, in Amazon is $14.49, she did not care nor did she know what to say. She was absolutely rude, absolutely unprofessional, absolutely unwilling to retain a customer, unable to answer my questions and even got upset at me and said multiple times that "our call was being recorded" and that I was supposed to call when I found out the issue (WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS DOING) and I shouldn't touch it but then she says I can touch it but can't find out what's wrong with it. I even asked if I should lie saying I don't know what's wrong or don't tell things exactly how they happened because as a normal person who spent money on a product if it stops working I will want to know what's going on with it and she didn't know what to say.

    I am extremely disappointed, if I can't touch a merchandise that I bought and paid $862.59 dollars for it and it's in my house just because I am worried about it not working because I should be afraid that I will "VOID MY WARRANTY" then I should be advised of it at the moment of purchase. Furthermore, a customer service representative should be able to answer as to why customers are not told anything related to this and should NEVER EVER prefer to lose a customer instead of helping out. I was a customer of this business until yesterday, will not recommend it either.

When it was finally delivered, the mirror was broken.

    I called to inform customer care and to have a replacement scheduled for delivery, the delivery guy said, "I wouldn't recommend you buying from this company, spend a couple more hundreds and get a better quality, service, and warranty." When they came to deliver the second mirror, they didn't notify me. They showed up and voila, "We are here!!!" It's like I don't have a job, or nothing to do. They didn't let me know the time frame, or anything. The truck drove off while I am on the same street, he said it was his last delivery, that's why he didn't want to wait. I am writing this review and now it's over 3 months I made this purchase and still didn't receive the mirror. Do yourselves a favor and stay away from this scam!

    We purchased bedroom furniture from Bob's Discount Furniture store and added on the accident warranty with our purchase. The furniture became damaged so we submitted a claim. The claim came back that we were able to replace the furniture and a credit would be sent to the store to pick out new items. Since the damage was not significant we decided to keep our bedroom furniture and use the credit towards a new ottoman and counter chairs. When the new items were delivered they set up the new furniture but then tried to take the old damaged furniture that we were keeping. When I notified them that was incorrect, after a lengthy time on the phone with customer service they ended up taking the new furniture and putting it back in the truck. I spent the entire day on the phone with their store, customer service, warranty department, and delivery team trying to straighten it out.

    This same exact situation then proceeded to happen over the course of a month THREE times. I spent hours waiting for deliveries and on the phone to ensure it was straightened out...only to have the delivery team show up again trying to take the old furniture. Every time that I called there was a different reason as to what the problem was. First they said the paperwork was put in incorrect but that it was fixed, then they stated it was put in as a warranty and therefore we needed to return the old furniture to Bob's (as opposed to being a Goof Proof claim). Another time we were notified that the ottoman was damaged while on the truck. Then the counter chairs were out of stock. Finally on their fourth attempt, we received the furniture. The very next day the wheel broke on the ottoman. We immediately called to report the problem stating that it needed to be replaced.

    They sent a service person out to assess the damage. This was more of our time being used on waiting for someone to come to our home. He determined it did need to be replaced...which did get replaced the following week, resulting in yet again more time spent waiting for a delivery. Not only was this a major inconvenience to us and time consuming, but their service is terrible and the quality of furniture is terrible. The new counter stools already have dents and dings. Our bedroom furniture is scratched significantly. When we first tried to submit a claim with the Goof Proof on a nightstand they denied it because we didn't have a specific reason for the damage.

My fiance had the service representative visit our home and he signed off on the iPad where we would receive the credit due to the fact that they do not make our bed anymore and that there are no parts available to have what is needed to fix it.

    We had purchased the couch online at that point. Since then, we hadn't received any credit, phone call or anything in the mail. Now we called and was told there was no such data in their system stating that we ever had the bed serviced or a note made for receiving a credit.

    Bob's Discount Furniture makes poor quality furniture, and does not abide by the Goof Proof Protection plan that has been paid for. They refuse all claims, and only once asking to speak to a supervisor did I get a letter saying they were providing two options for my defective bed frame. They would give me a check for something that wouldn't even begin to cover a new bed, or they would give a credit to the store for almost enough to cover a new bed... However, the next day they sent an email saying the store credit amount was actually a mistake and is now lower... Again, not enough to buy a new frame, even from them.

    The sales associate had told me that the Goof Proof plan would protect me from almost any accidental damage, and replace the furniture if they couldn't. This turns out to be a lie, along with all other advertisements about their plan. I would never purchase anything from this store again, and warn anyone even considering it. The company will be reported to the Better Business Bureau, and should really be investigated for false advertising.

    I purchased a living room set from Bob's Discount Furniture in October of 2016. Within weeks, the seams began separating and the cushions began flattening out severely. Technicians were dispatched, per the "Goof Proof" warranty, which is listed on their site as follows: "Your coverage includes unlimited in home service for covered accidents. When a covered incident occurs, a professional service technician will come to your home at a time convenient to you and restore the stained/damaged area back to factory standards at no cost to you. This means you will never pay for a technician to come out to your home, never pay for any parts, and never pay for labor within warranty. If a stain/accidental damage cannot be restored to factory standards, the damaged piece of furniture will be replaced, at full value, without any additional cost to you!"

    The set was replaced as the seam separation was deemed a manufacturer's defect. Shortly after, this happened again. And again the set was replaced. It happened yet again after the replacement, and this time, Technician Nelvin was dispatched. (After a previous technician didn't bother to ring the doorbell, which meant I missed a day of work for nothing). Nelvin deemed this to NOT be a manufacturer's defect, despite the seams splitting in the same spot and the cushions flattening in the same spots as well. When I had called to schedule, I was told the technician coming out was merely a formality, and this time I would be able to replace the set with another model.

    However, because Nelvin reported that it was not a defect, when I called to schedule a replacement, I was told by Blarissa ** that NO RESOLUTION would be offered, and I am stuck with the defective furniture. I have asked to speak with her supervisor, who she indicates is a Jason **, however no phone call from Jason has been forthcoming. I'm extremely upset that not only is Bob's refusing to honor their warranties, I'm stuck with brand new furniture that is covered in holes where the seams have separated, and the cushions have flattened to the point of uncomfortableness. I am looking for resolution on this as soon as possible.

    I bought all my furniture for my new house from Bob's Furniture and they convince me to buy protectors for the mattresses and their 5 years Goof Poof warranty which is a scam and bogus. After 3 years The lazy couch frame broke, the arm rest got weak and cave in, the mattress got a huge stain that went through the cover protector. I call in the claim and they schedule someone to come out with a 2 hour window. Waited 3 hours which they never came. I call customer service.

    After 45 minutes waiting on the phone I was advised that the TRUCK broke down which they did not call me and let me know that no one was coming, they re-schedule and the guy that came did fix the broken frame but he stated that he could not fix the arm rest or the tear on the foot rest since the Guardian company covers that which was a different 800 #, call the Guardian and the lady pressure me to give her an exact date of the damages which I kept repeating that I don't remember so she took upon herself and put Dec. 25, 2017 which I told her I don't know but she put that in the system and then she said "Sorry but we don't cover since is not under the 30 days policy," but I argue and told her I never told you a date.

    She said, "You need to call Bob's and get a price for the piece if you wanted it fix." I was so upset I call back Bob's, explain what happened and they told me that unfortunately that is not their problem. I said, "Yes it is. I bought the warranty under your contract and this a company that you use so you cover the responsibility," well this how I got here. Pure Care is the warranty for the mattress which they voided my warranty because after I put in the claim they told me I supposed to report after 5 days and I violated the policy. Bob's charge me $350.00 for the warranty which they pocket for themself. They stole my money!!! Is a scam!!!

    I purchased a dinette set with a leather bench a few years ago (still within the supposed 5 year manufacturer's warranty and the Goof Proof Protection Plan). Called the number for the protection plan and was told they won't cover it because I can't attribute the rip to a specific incident. Called Bob's customer service, submitted photos of the rips as told and they said it's not consistent with a manufacturer's defect. So what does that say? That this is just not meant to last more than 5 years? Terrible, terrible customer service. Obviously, you get what you pay for. In the future I will never support this store.

Someone would contact me. Never happened.

    We bought a bonded leather loveseat/sofa set with Goof Proof insurance in 2016. When the loveseat peeled we contacted Bob's who agreed to issue a return authorization, but only for the loveseat. That would have been fine if we could get a replacement but the model was discontinued. We tried to contact them about replacing both pieces so we wouldn't be left with mismatched furniture but got stuck in the vicious cycle of leave a message/nobody calls back. Frustrated I called their corporate HQ in Mass. The man who answered the phone put me through to a v-mailbox and of course, nobody returned my message. I called back the a week later and got the same guy. I explained my frustration and he said he was only a call taker, and then transferred me to the same v-mailbox!!!

    I called right back and asked for his name. His answer… “I'm just a security guard but I pick up the phones sometimes”!!! Then he transferred me where? HUMAN RESOURCES OF COURSE!!! A nice person in HR actually helped me by sending a priority email to corporate customer relations, promising that I would get a callback before the end of the day. Well, that call came the next day and the woman said they refuse to take back both pieces. Now we are stuck with a peeling loveseat rather than have mismatched furniture in our home. To say we are disappointed with Bob's is a huge understatement. Do not buy from Bob's. Their products are cheap and they don't stand behind the Goof Proof protection. In hindsight I think it's one big scam. In the end you get what you pay for.

I DID not get a chance to look over the unit because of other things going on in my apartment during my move. Within a week and after not having even used the entertainment unit, I noticed several cracks in the wood. I drove down to the showroom in Bay Plaza in the Bronx and spoke to the salesman, who put me in touch with "customer care". To make a long story short, today is 2-10-18 and I am still waiting to resolve this issue, even after writing a return receipt letter to the CEO Michael Skirvin. My next move is small claims court.

At first, the delivery man told me they can't remove the old mattress and box spring because the salesman forgot to tell them. I bought the mattress because he said they will remove them so I ordered it. The delivery man said it's MY fault, you need to contact him, this is not my job... Etc.

So support parts are moving upside down every time. Also one of the storage drawer was cracked!! And some screws was not straight!! The third, Every drawer of the chest did NOT open smoothly, someone came for fixing yesterday but still not smooth!

    The fourth, the mattress is smell chemical, very strong smell and I had headache, nausea the night. The technician came yesterday for fixing drawer and he told me, this smell come from furniture also. Yes, strong smell come from the chest! I went to the store 2/8 and talked to Manager. He came the phone and talked to customer care over 30 minutes. They never accept refund or cancel, just reading policy and keep talking repair them.

They call Terry and ask for directions, because they can’t find the house. The store apparently got our address wrong. Which is weird because we have a card and our bill gets here. He corrected that, and gave directions. They call back. They still can’t find us. They say we are not on Google Maps. Which is bull. Terry gets irritated. So they start calling me. They say they are in Lowell and Dot laws will not allow them. To drive the hour and thirty five minutes to get here.

    Their driver can’t be out later. They will have to reschedule for Wednesday through Friday next week. I say If they truly are in Lowell it is only a 25 minute drive not 1 hour and 30 minutes. They say their drivers cannot be out anymore and we will have to reschedule. I say, "Fine. If that is how it is, I want you to drop the 250 charge for delivery because you messed this all up and we now will have to go 5 days with no furniture." They say they cannot do that. I tell them to cancel the order. They connect me with the Merrillville store to cancel. I see if maybe the can get the charge dropped for delivery, because no Furniture! They say they cannot guarantee anything. We cancel the order. We may not have furniture, but I cannot see allowing a place I am buying from to screw me over like that and making me pay for it too.

    I purchased a power bed frame and mattress for my disabled brother from Bob's Discount Furniture in Brookfield, CT. When I was looking for a bed that could elevate, I told the salesperson I was unsure if the bed would work for him and his physical limitations. The salesperson assured me that I had 90 days to return the bed if it didn't work for my brother. That was the reason I decided to buy the bed; because I had the option to return it if it didn't work for my brother. I spent $2,239.00 on the bed frame and mattress.

    32 days later and his physical therapist has informed me that this bed is not working for my brother and what his physical limitations require. I called Bob's to return the bed and was told I could return the mattress, but not the frame. I explained that the salesperson assured me that I could return the bed in its entirety, but the manager I spoke to said I could not. I even pointed out to her on the receipt it says; "You may return your mattress or mattress set within 90 days of the original receipt date and we will refund the purchase price minus the original delivery fee."

    Based on what the salesperson told me and the words "mattress OR mattress set", I believed that I could return this bed. The salesperson never said, "only the mattress" nor does the return policy say "only the mattress". So now I am stuck with a $2239 bed that my brother can't use. He is a disabled retired veteran and his income is fixed and limited. Go Bob's Discount Furniture! I will never purchase another thing from this company.

    Bob’s Discount furniture is quite the gimmick, they operate as a shady business, and I can’t see how they expect to last with the customer service that they provide. They go against every reputable business logic in this country. Instead of making things right with the customer, which would be me, they chose to have me write a bad review instead. The day the furniture got delivered the delivery driver took down a 100’ section of utility wire falling in our driveway. It also arrived with a broken chair, which we then had to wait a week for and go pick it up ourselves within a time frame of a couple of days before they sent it back??!! Even though we paid for it!

    The process of getting our utilities wire fixed was a complete disaster. The claims specialist was very rude. The process was for me to take pictures, get 2 quotes and then email them. Then they will get back to me. Why am I doing all this work, I didn’t rip down the wire, Bob’s Furniture did. They should take all measures to get it rectified, not me. This was going to be a lengthy process all the while a 100 foot wire is sitting in my driveway. Are you kidding me? Totally unnecessary.

    The one positive thing I will say is I called Bob's about this and they had a gentleman get in touch with me who made that part easy and quick to get rectified. While we were waiting for the completion of our delivery we noticed the quality of the table was pretty bad. The leaf does not sit flush, peeling laminate on the leg, all within the first week. We called to get our money back, and even though as written in their policy, a full refund is acceptable before time of delivery, now keep in mind we have only had a partial delivery coming to the realization of the quality,so before anything else got delivered we wanted our refund and guess what? They said NO!

    We were offered to exchange it for another piece of furniture in their store... No thanks. Horrible business and even worse horrible customer service. Any other reputable store would of course do a refund especially within the first 30 days. We have never wrote a review before, however, this cannot be left unsaid.

    I purchased a 3-piece furniture set in 2012 and within 2 to 3 years of purchasing it, I had to have 2 pieces replaced which was done without any problems at all. I was impressed. Fast forward to January 2018, the final piece of the 3-piece set has been cracking and I actually put off calling about the protection plan because the holidays were coming up.

    Well, I called today and was told that since my contract plan expired on December 8th, 2017, there was nothing they could do for me and I expected this is what they were going to say anyway. According to Christina, she talked to everyone she could and no one could do anything. She said once I told her the furniture was cracking and this was not due to damage, that it made the situation a little different. I said to her so I am expected to keep this furniture, even though no one tells you when you buy it that this is going to happen to the furniture. I said to her after getting the first 2 pieces replaced I had kept the furniture in good faith.

    I am not blaming anyone but I should have replaced the whole set with something other than this peeling leather in the beginning. December 8th to January 20th is not a long period of time that some consideration could not have been afforded to me and it's not like you don't have to pay for the furniture if they replace it. I had to pay $100 for the first 2 pieces to be replaced and I had already purchased the warranty for it when I initially bought it. I am so disappointed that there really were no efforts made to help me. I sat on the phone waiting for Christina to see what she could find out and apparently not one manager felt I could/should be shown the same type of good faith I showed them.

In that same call today I found out the parts won't come in tentatively until APRIL. 3 MONTHS FROM NOW. They won't give us our money back to buy new, manual couches they will only exchange based on what the tech says on Thursday. I've never heard/experienced such bullcrap in my life. And we haven't even had the couches for more than 6 months.

    I unfortunately purchased a couch that was too big to get into the elevator of my apartment building. From the salesman on the floor, to the delivery people and the customer service follow-up call they couldn't have been nicer or more friendly. Expecting difficulty when I returned to the store, I was able to select another couch without any problems at all. My new couch will be delivered in a few days and I couldn't be happier.

    Bought a 3 piece sectional that quickly ripped at the seams. Sofa was delivered faulty and would not hook together. A tech came out and tried to sell me on "just do this and it's fine". I had Bob's come out and deliver replacements 5 different times. After months of calling and waiting on hold for 1-2 hours, I accepted the sofa. I have been to the cleaners 5 times so far to have them stitch the seams as the cushions just keep ripping. It is a lost cause to keep repairing the cushions. If you lean against this sofa you can hear the wood cracking. This sectional fall apart each and every day. I have attached pics of this sofa I have had less than a year. Let this be your warning. Do not buy anything from Bob's Discount Furniture!

    I purchased an adjustable bed and nine inch memory foam mattress, with a mattress cover/protector, as well as a full bedroom set for a guest room, as well as an office desk for my fiancee. Besides issues with broken desk and threats to charge me extra to deliver a replacement desk, the mattress cover, which cost $69, is now falling apart. We were told when we purchased the cover that it can be replaced every six months. I called Bob's and was hung up on once, then called again and placed on hold for twenty minutes. Used the chat feature and was given the number for FabriTech. I called FabriTech and sat on hold for ten minutes after hitting the customer service number. After ten minutes they played a message saying "welcome" and offering another number for customer service.

    I hit it again and waited ten more minutes. There was one message saying "one caller ahead" and then another saying you can leave a message if you want to. Why would I leave a message if there is only ONE caller ahead. After another long wait I got a message saying leave a message. What kind of ** make you wait over twenty minutes and then say leave a message? I am sure they will not get back to me, although I left my number three times in my message. We need to stand outside of Bob's and tell customers to stay away. They need to be shut down - scum of the earth!!!

    I purchased the Reclining Sofa & Power Reclining Loveseat from Bob's for $3000+. My sofa was discolored and teared in just in few months. I tried to call Bob's with my concerns, but they were not addressed, but rather I was turned down as I had not purchased the insurance. The Bob's couldn't strive for the quality for their product or tried to address consumers concerns.

    I purchased 2 very expensive leather power recliner sofas for both of my sons' new apartments and within 2 years they started peeling! I also purchased warranty which they would not honor when my sons called to complain. This also happened to one of my sons' friends who also purchased this sofa. Total for both was over $2600.00. I would never go back to this store and purchase a doormat.

    The fiasco started a year ago. I purchased a bedroom set for my daughter. It was delivered almost 3 weeks later, broken!!! Both side panels were delivered split in half!!! Waited another 2 weeks for new panels, they were delivered, but with no screws!! Waited another 2 weeks before they finally put her bed up. 10 months later the side panels split almost in half, the drawer was misaligned and so it came off the hinges, the desk legs were loose which made the desk wobbly.

    At first they said it wasn't covered. Then only after it was deemed a manufacturing defect, did they agree to fix it. When I mean fix it, they sent some drawers that didn't even go with the set and nothing else!!! So finally they said they would replace it, something that should have been done in the first place!!! Bob's Discount furniture is TERRIBLE! And the Goof Proof Warranty is also a joke!!! Please do not order anything from these people! I wish I would have googled their name first!!! But I will do everything I can so that other people aren't duped the way I was!!!

    This place is a complete nightmare. Don't ever purchase from this place ever unless you want defective furniture that is not the same furniture as in the store when it arrives, the customer service department is useless and never helps anyone, and nobody is helpful. Nevermind the fact that I paid a lot of money to furnish my house 7 months ago and I still have no furniture in my home that I paid for, they are robbers. Liars and foreigners. DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THEM!!!

    I purchased a Mercury power recliner 2 years ago. After less than 1 year the power stopped working. They sent a technician out who said it needed a part and it would take 3 months. After calling customer service and threatening to sue... they replaced the chair. Less than a year later the same problem occurred. This time however the chair froze in the fully reclined position. I suffered a severely sprained wrist, a wrenched back, a twisted ankle and neck injuries from a fall after having to climb out of the chair. There was no other way to get out of the chair. This time I'm not even bothering with customer service... I am filing a law suit over the safety issue with the chair as well as personal injuries.

    Purchased a “leather” sofa from Bob's about 2 years ago and it is already falling apart, and peeling. I had a warranty and they refused to honor it. They acknowledged the sofa was defective, poorly made and was discontinued because of it. I highly advise staying away from Bob's like the plague.

    I am a single guy that never turns down advice as far as the decor of my home. Ammara ** is the salesperson that I had the pleasure of doing business with. There was no pressure by Ammara to steer me toward expensive items, or anything that I disliked. Instead I felt that I had known Ammara for years and I felt very comfortable with her. While at BoB's I was not followed around by a salesperson like a little puppy dog, which is what happened at another store. I am very happy with my purchase and the service that I received. BoB's Discount Furniture is very lucky to have a young lady like Ammara, because she makes a person feel right at home. I have been to other furniture stores but none can match Bob's, in price and super friendly staff. I will send family, friends to BoB's. Thank you BoB'S and Ammara.

    I purchased the goof proof warranty to cover my furniture. They make it sound like it's the best thing to buy but it's not when it's time to use the warranty. They deny everything. Also when you call customer service is terrible. You're on hold at least 30 min before you get to speak to anyone. I will never buy from them again. If you decide to buy there don't buy the warranty it's a scam. My daughter bed broke cause she was playing on it. I removed it from the room so they said I moved the furniture so it disqualified the warranty. So I just decided to toss it out.

    I ordered a Credenza from Bob's Discount Furniture on 12-27-2017. I was told that I would be receiving a phone call on 1-3-18 or 1-4-18 regarding pick-up. On 1-4-2018, I was informed that the Credenza was in the Store and could be picked up that day at our convenience. Customer Service was excellent from everyone in the store from sales, office, warehouse/delivery. The credenza was professionally packed with the proper packing material. No assembly needed. The credenza was not damaged. Highly Recommended Store: Bob's Discount Furniture.

    1st time purchaser of two faux leather power recliners from Bob's in Woodbridge, New Jersey. The both chairs have had to be replaced for a total of four times. Now, the newest replacement if not working at all. It is stuck in the open position and I almost killed myself getting out of the chair. The ideal situation is that they take both chairs back and give me a full refund (back to my credit card). I have never had so much trouble with furniture and have never been so inconvenienced with the breakdown of both chairs. Even the auto industry has a lemon law!

    I have been trying to send corporate an email but no one will give me their address. I will now send to the Better Business Bureau and Consumer Affairs. Bottom line is... I want two working chairs that I can use and not have to be on the phone every two months because one of the chairs has stopped working, is peeling. My time is just as important as the time spent sending out repairmen, delivery personnel and customer service phone calls. CAN ANYONE OUT THERE HELP ME!

    Ordered $4,500 worth of new furniture from Bob's in Farmingdale N.Y on 10/9/2017 which included 2 new beds, king mattress, 2 full mattress, 2 foundation. First deliver when my bed was put together workers stripped the screws and couldn't straighten bed, took pictures and told me I would get a new bed. After 10 day called Bob's. Said they had to send a someone here to try to fix. Took more pictures. After not hearing from Bob's I called back and arguing, Bob's would not allow me to speak to a supervisor, I was told a new bed would come. Delivery came and the team could not take apart my bed because the screws were stripped. Took pictures again. After a week of not hearing from Bob's went into store and spoke to Anil, store manager Over 1 hour, Anil called Corporate and they told him customer will take bed apart, and Jenny corporate manager would call us back.

    After fighting to have a new team come and take bed apart on 12/13/17 service man came in and took old bed apart and when he called to make sure new bed was coming with a new foundation because a nail was coming through foundation they told serviceman my delivery was cancelled. After calling and fighting, Heidi from corporate sent a new bed but no foundation. Calling Anil back and explaining my situation and telling me that he would do something for me when this is all over. Bed came and still not impressed but I accepted it. Now calling back. They want to send another inspector to see foundation again which they already took pictures of.

    After one hour of negotiation Bob's set up another date to bring foundation. Took off another day and they brought me the wrong foundation. 6 times took apart my bed. Took off work. Trying to remain calm. Called back. Told me to go to store to reorder. After fighting that I would not return to store and I need to speak to someone else Clarissa agreed to send my king size foundation. On12/21/17, Not one phone call from anyone. Called Anil back 3 times to discuss some kind of reimbursement and received nothing back at this time. Sad how all I wanted is to be happy with Bob's and they did nothing to do this for me. Really bad customer service. Would love to hear from Bob himself. I think 7 times to get a delivery correct is unfair and countless hours on the phone, being offered no support, who is going to pay me for Bob's mistakes.
