    Purchase kitchen table and chairs and the warranty. What a mistake on both accounts. Furniture came damaged (the leaf) and bench. Had to have both reorder items and technician visit house (to no avail). Shortly after under normal usage bench cross support broke in 2. Surprise it's not covered under warranty! Not considered an "accident" or part of the structure of the bench. Legalize!! Then a week later someone got up from a chair and rear cross support broke in 2. Getting a new bench (this is the 3rd one) and a technician to look at chair. They will not refund $$ only give a store credit. Why would we want another piece of this cheaply made furniture. This all occurred in less than 2 months' time. Will never ever buy from them again and will tell the masses of this experience.

    The plan does not cover any accidents rip, tears, spills, etc. as explained by the salesperson. The Goof Proof "rep" have placed loopholes in the policy in which the goof proof only covers "Accidental Rips, Cuts, Punctures, and Burns from a specific incident" in which the rep could not define what that even means. Don't waste your time or money dealing with these dishonest people.

    Purchased a couch from Bob's. They told us to buy the insurance because they will cover anything that happens to it within 5 years. Couch broke from sitting on it, Bob's won't cover it. They said it needs to be from an "accident." And they don't back normal use. Don't back normal use? What type of product are you selling then? Why did you tell me the Goof Proof covers everything. If you had the unfortunate experience of buying the Goof Proof, make sure it's an accident. I'll "accidentally" never be stepping another foot into a Bob's Furniture again.

    Worst company to work with. Bought a Sofa and within 3 months the upper frame is bowing out. Had a "professional Agent" come to my home to take pictures and said, "You have an issue with frame and parts are loose." Had to call CS because nobody let me know what status of my warranty replacement was. Told my issue is not covered by manufacture warranty. 3 Months??? They read from a scripted response.

    I bought the Louie Cherry dresser and chest of drawers bedroom furniture. I was disappointed in the size of the drawers, they were half the size of the old dresser, the socks that fitted comfortable in the old drawer could not fit in Bob’s new drawer. I was mostly disappointed in the chest of drawers because on the top of the chest the wood seemed to be split in two; later I learned that it is known that they were having problems with seam separation; that what it is called. I called several times and each time they promised to send someone over the look at it. They never sent any one, and eventually I was told that the dresser is no longer under warranty. I would advise everyone to stay away from Bob’s Furniture, they cut corners and provide substandard workmanship, and use every trick and the gray areas to scam you out of your money, the government should shut them down.

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

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

    THIS COMPANY HAS MILLIONS OF UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS. That should have been another red flag. Guardian makes it EXTREMELY difficult to file a claim. I tried for an entire week to get through with anyone on the phone to file this claim. To sum this up, ALL the damage on the sectional SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED, according to the salesman and according to their own fine print; but it was of course denied. I will be filing a lawsuit in small claims court next week, and I will update on the court proceedings so others can do the same.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Typically we have had good service at Bob's which is why we returned. We ended up having a store credit from a previous purchase...when we went to use it they said they couldn’t find it and would look into it. We never heard back from anyone.

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

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

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

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

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

    I plan on reporting Bob’s to the Better Business Bureau and researching every other entity that I can to discourage customers from dealing with this ** SHOW of an organization. You are unprofessional, unethical and unworthy to sell anything to customers. I will be also contacting the attorney general. All I got for all of my frustration today is some sort of “return order number” and no remedy in regard to my situation. I hope this sham of an organization gets closed down but not before the “supervisors” are reprimanded for their lack of professionalism. DON'T BUY FROM HERE! BUYER BEWARE!!

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

The fabric is ripping in several places. Bob's won't help you past the one year warranty. A sectional sofa is not supposed to last 2 years.

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

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

    I bought a fabric love seat and sofa set from Bob's two years ago and these sofas have frames that cannot withstand day-to-day use. Only buy this furniture if you do not plan to use it frequently. Within 2 years the wooden frame in the back and arm broke. We called the warranty specialist/technician and he stapled the wood together. 30 minutes after he was gone the staple came undone. We called again, and he tried the same thing. This time it held till the following day. Mind you, we were just sitting on the sofa to watch TV.

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

    I would not even give them one star. All reps. including Bob's Discount Furniture are big time liars. When I ordered my living room furniture (3 seater sofa, loveseat & recliner chair) in March 2018, the sales representative (Name: Ashley - Monmouth Junction, NJ) told me the furniture will be delivered within 2 months, i.e. end of May 2018.

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

    The rep. told me that they don't have the replacement wooden legs for love-seat in stock, so they will have to replace the whole loveseat which will be delivered at the earliest by May 2019. I'm going to make sure that nobody should go through this hassle which I have been through with Bob's Furniture.

Each attempt the furniture is on worse condition than the last and it was supposedly had been inspected twice before being put on the truck.

    Was excited for our Bob's mattresses. It was to be delivered on a Saturday between 2:30 and 6. Had family over and we waited for the truck to arrive. Around 3:30 it pulled up downstairs. My wife, daughter, and grandchildren went to leave once it arrived so they fiddled around our car while I left the door cracked at our Apartment and prepared for them to bring them up. My son in law took their dog for a walk. It was raining but there is not much distance from where the truck was and the stairs... covered mind you. Only about 15 feet.

    The delivery drivers sat in the truck with their feet up on the dash. My wife left about 3:48 and they had not moved or gotten out of the truck. My son in law was still with their dog. They got out the truck and stood and the stairs. My son in law asked them if they were here to deliver the mattresses. Mind you they were wearing Bob's Furniture jackets and hats. They said "No. We are delivering Appliances" and got back in the truck. They left about 3:58. I checked the delivery notification tracker and it said failed to deliver. "Knocked on door. No one answered". Liars! The door was cracked open! They sent pictures to the store with a guy standing at a door that was not mine! Was told by the store that I had to rescheduled for the next week!

    I wanted my mattresses. I was there and ready. They refused to deliver my mattresses! Just because your drivers don't want to do their job doesn't mean I have to accommodate them!

    It was a disastrous delivery experience. I was given 4 hours window of 7.15 am to 11.15 am. The delivery guy called 6.57 that they were 10 minutes away. Apparently parked in the next street. I was expecting them to come in. I went out and saw them at the other street and was still waiting inside. At the end of 10 minutes I went out to check. They were gone. I called the number that called me. No response. The customer service later told me they were in front of my house and took a picture.

    Not even a courtesy call at the end of their so called 10 minutes window to say they were leaving, that could have changed the whole story. After paying thousands of dollar for the furniture I have to wait another 4 days on top of the previous 2 weeks I waited. Bob's, this isn't the way to treat your loyal customer. Bob's I regretted trusting you with my furniture, it is time to move on to where I am valued.

    Worst experience ever. Ordered an L shaped couches three weeks ago and still waiting for it. First, they lied about delivery time, when they were trying to sell us the couches they said the delivery was flexible, lies!!! They do not have exact time to deliver, you would need to take a whole day off in order to get the delivery. Due to that they don’t know what time they would be delivering. I tried to reach customer services and they said they can’t do anything, they gave me another date, which was a week later, then I couldn’t receive the couches because the same thing same again, they texted me saying the would be here at 4-7: 00 pm and they showed up at 2:00 pm. Called customer services and they said they were booked and I would be receiving my couches after Thanksgiving, like basically I’ve waiting a whole month to get the merchandise and I would be having no couches for the holidays. :-( Thank you BOB.

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

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

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

    At the end of September I purchased a table, 4 chairs and a bench along with a bed, two nightstands, a dresser chest in mirror. The bed came with a headboard, footboard, two side rails and slats and legs to hold them up. I paid extra to have it delivered and put it together in my home. The day of delivery they put the table and chairs and everything together. Asked me to sign for it. When I was getting ready to sign I noticed there were marks and damage to the table and the bench and the delivery guy said he would let his supervisor know and they would have him call me as I was having other things done. At the same time I want to look at the bedroom set and the gentleman had left already.

    At this point I noticed that all the pieces that were delivered had been damaged. I called Bob's twice and stayed on hold for a very long time then someone picked up and hung up. I called the Schaumburg store. She told me I had the right number and to try again. I finally got ahold of someone. I told him about the issue. He said he would look into the table and then hung up on me. I been went to the website, follow their guidelines, contacted them. Took a ton of pictures and email them October 3rd.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Funny thing is One of Bob’s technician who came he said, "Be careful with this warranty 'cause 99% they don’t apply to anything they say they will. They just sell you this to give you peace of mind!"

He proceeded to tell me because there is some overall staining that he had to submit pictures. Needless to say I received the letter today from Guardian that they denied the claim.

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

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

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

    I don't really understand it. We're regular customers, and this is actually a medical issue. They want us to have our son keep a bed that he can't use - or get another one...that he can't use?

    They want me to buy insurance because they knew the couches were bad. Because I didn't buy insurance they sold me defected ones. I don't understand how the couches ripped in less than a year. Especially since we rarely used it. Before these couches, my old ones lasted over 10 years and I never had this problem and I paid good money for these couches and they are not supposed to rip easy.

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

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

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

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

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

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

    Please people, if you buy furniture at Bob’s you will get screwed. Read the reviews, they don't care what complaint about once they get your money. My couch in 3 months started peeling. I immediately called them, the store and the company. They said, "Sent pictures" so I did. Next day they informed me that this is not covered under manufacturer's warranty. I said, "The leather sofa is 6 months old and the shiny coating is starting to peel everywhere." They said it’s not covered. I even purchase the goof proof insurance, but they said that only for accidents. To make a long story short the entire couch is all peeled, looks like crap and it’s only a year and they don't want to cover anything. THEY ARE A GARBAGE COMPANY, LIARS. THEIR STUFF SUCKS. They do not stand behind their product and if you buy anything there - I warned you Joel - never ever again.

    I went to the Bob's Furniture in Yonkers on 10/20/18 after being approved for an AcceptanceNOW lease, which I now know is thru Rent a Center and not Bob's Furniture (found that out the hard way). After being approved, I walked in and was approached by a wonderful sales men who worked with me and my fiance's budget to help us find the platform bed and dresser with mirror that we wanted. He was so patient going thru both of our credits to try and get us a credit card and get a better deal.

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

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

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

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

    Hi, I left a review before also but no steps were taken except a phone call from them. When I bought the couch 2 years back, they were like pushing me for taking the 5 years warranty for $99. I found it to be a good offer and took it as I thought I can relax for some time if anything happens to my couch. On March 2018, I called the customer care and asked them to change the couch seats as it is really gone bad in 1.4 months, they said that they will send the replacement by April 15th. After that I followed up with them so many times but this is end of October and I didn't receive any replacement so far. They are just fake people who make fake promises and trying to make money out of that warranty which they literally force every customers to take it. This is the first and last time I bought anything from Bob's. I will not recommend anyone to go to Bob's and I make sure that no one goes after reading this review. Wish I could give ZERO stars.

    I was called a week ago by a recruiter called Joanne because I applied on LinkedIn to the office assistant position in LA - on Pico. She stated my experience was what they were looking for and after a 20 minute talk, she said that she will forward my resume to the managers at the Pico store. 5 days later, after me messaging her and asking her am I going to be called or not, her reply was, “The managers are busy” and said, “They will call you shortly.” The same day I sent her that message, I finally get a phone call from a person at the store, setting up the appointment today Monday at 3 pm. I asked him where the location of the store is, he says he doesn't know!!! Because he is new? He never sent a confirmation email afterwards confirming the location or the parking situation! So I had to figure all this out and hope I get it right! How unprofessional to start with...

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

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

I was even told a story by the rep that someone fell off a ladder changing a lightbulb and landed on the couch and that is Yeah an acceptable claim. How does that make any sense?

    That story is a complete lie but somehow my pregnant fiancé sitting on the couch and it accidentally breaking is NOT covered? This needs to be fixed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

    My husband and I have been loyal customers to Bob’s Furniture for 5 years now. At first our orders, customer service and deliveries were great! Years down the line Bob’s Furniture customer service and warranty has declined and we are left with confused orders and no employee has answers for my husband and I. They constantly mess up with delivery dates and missing/broken parts. They don’t let you know if an item is out of stock. They lack communication with their customers while we spend thousands of dollars with them. I am so done with this company and my husband and I will never buy new items again from them. What we have in our house, we will use warranty if needed be but otherwise this company will not get a dime out of my pocket again. What a disgrace! They need to screen their employees and update their customer order system to make things not so confusing.

    Furniture broke after 2 yrs. They will not do anything at all. Cosines are flat and caved in. Called store. They sent out somebody. Said I would hear back in 38 hrs. Nobody called. I called them on Thursday. On hold first time for 25 min. Was disconnected. Called back. Waited another half hour then I was told they were going to do nothing. Then I said, "I spent 700 hundred dollars on the couch. Now I have to go and buy a new one". The guy said yes I would. Never again will I step foot in that store again. I give them a zero rating.

    Bob’s Furniture has the worst costumes service, the quality of their product is the worst one in the market. Not responsible at all at the time to deliver your product. I bought a recliner less than two years ago and the look like they are 20 year old. I wouldn’t recommend any merchandise from Bob’s furniture. The company is unprofessional and irresponsible. They make lots of mistakes at the time to deliver your merchandise and the always bring the wrong product and they have to take it back. It happen to twice in a week. I wouldn’t even give them one star.

    I have been a loyal customer and have purchased several items from Bob's. Had I known that their Goof Proof Protection was garbage I would have never purchased my furniture nor the coverage at such store. They flat out lie to customers and say it's a great investment and it is not. They provide you a phony sheet of what it protects against however, they don't provide you with the 11 page document that basically lists everything that could go wrong and prevents you from taking advantage of the protection. They are false advertising and stealing people's money by selling the garbage Goof Proof Protection. Never again will I buy anything from them. People need to take their business somewhere else.

    I purchased a bedroom set late July (complete bed frame, dresser w/mirror, chest, nightstand). The day the furniture was delivered it was missing drawer handles. I called the store before the delivery team left & was told I had to make a claim w/ customer service. I took that action the same day & was told the handles have to be mailed out & to expect them within the next couple of days. Mid-August came & I still had no handles, the drawers are not able to be used without the handles. Customer service then tells me (mid-August) that the handles are not in stock, but that it shows they will be in mid-September.

    She personally told me she would call by the 15th of September to confirm they were being shipped. As of today 9/21, I have not received them & am now being told to wait to mid-November. I've dealt with several furniture stores & have NEVER had anything like this happen. Nor have I experienced a company not willing to rectify the issue some type of way. November means 4 months without being able to fully use my furniture.

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

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

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

    I bought a bedroom set 4 years ago. I’ve had issues with the dresser drawers MULTIPLE times. Drawers are ALWAYS coming off track and causing damage such as chips to other drawers. The first time they sent us a replacement draw which I had to install myself. No matter what I did (removing/rearranging clothing) the drawers are always coming off track. One draw actually broke apart!!! Today the tech came to take a look. Long story short, they refuse to replace anything. They are claiming it is my fault and not a manufacturing defect. HOW? This was not the first time. You’ve replaced it before!!! To top it off, the set is discontinued so I can’t even PURCHASE replacement drawers. I need to buy a brand new set!!!

    Their furniture is so CHEAP and Poorly made!!! IT IS NOT WORTH IT. Pay the extra cash and go somewhere else. I also purchased a Bob-O-Pedic mattress. I took the protector off for the first time and there’s MOLD on the mattress. I have NEVER spilled ANYTHING or ate ANYTHING in my room let alone my bed.

    I bought and exchanged a mattress. I was looking for a soft memory foam. The first was half soft and half firm. Why, I don't know, when I specifically asked for SOFT? I was able to change one time, for their Plush memory foam, which is supposed to be softer. The second mattress was more expensive, plus I paid a $250 delivery fee. I am in pain from sleeping on this mattress. My lower back and hips are in pain every morning. I have sides that go numb. I asked if they could exchange, and they wouldn't do it...past the 90 day policy, they only exchange once, it's written on their receipt (Which, by the way, is information you get AFTER you pay).

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

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

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

    I 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.

    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.

    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.

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. They have made me to sleep on the floor for a month now because of their bad services. Bob's Furniture doesn't value or care about customers.

    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! You better believe I will not let this happen to me ever again!

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.

    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.

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.

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 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.

Bob's has done nothing to compensate me to rectify this issue. Either my set doesn't match or I have to pay more money for a new set after going through three deliveries. All you get is screwed over once the furniture is in your home. I WILL NEVER NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN. PLEASE DO NOT SHOP HERE. All these one stars should be a HUGE WARNING!

    My issue is still going on after two and a half months and now I was informed it will go on another sixteen weeks. Don't shop here. Too many other furniture stores that stand behind their product and customers. All Bob's does is give you the runaround and in the end you lose! If their is set has a design flaw after three deliveries they should replace my WHOLE set. No ifs and or buts. NEVER EVER WILL I SHOP AT BOB'S DISCOUNT FURNITURE!

    I have been trying for days for customer service to answer the phone. I have a remote with the inside exposed. It's cheaply made with paper. Paper has worn down to inside remote. No one answer the phone for hours. Force to hang up. Get no one on the phone ever. Will never buy from them again.

    Your Pedro ** is a perfect delivery guy. In my 60 years of age, I have received many furniture deliveries but never seen so professional, polite, and so energetic delivery guys. With Bob's Discount, I am dealing for the last six years and we have received three deliveries. Presently, we were stuck up with Bob's Discount for the last one month. Bob's sent three different teams to pick up old couches and replace with new one. All three teams told me that these couches cannot be taken back from this location as it is very small and new couches cannot be brought in.

    All three teams told me that it was almost impossible for them to deliver. But the fourth team of Pedro ** made it possible in an easiest way possible. They were strong, professional and men of intelligent approach. What three previous teams thought impossible, they made possible in an easy way as it was not nothing difficult for them. They must be an asset for Bob's Discount Furniture. Thank you Pedro ** for your perfect job, it made my life easy.

    Please do not purchase the Goof Proof Plus. The sales reps do not know anything about the insurance or choose not to be transparent. The insurance covers very little. I purchased a bed and I guess after moving the bed around the boards got very loose and wouldn’t hold the nails in place. I called and asked for replacement. After uploading several pics and explaining to two separate departments (FYI) make sure your story makes sense or they won’t accept your claim. I was denied. They stated that the boards are not included in the insurance, however I could purchase boards.

    I took the loss and still purchased a sofa a cream colored sofa. After about a month I began to notice that if you sat on the sofa with a dark colored clothing it would rub off on the sofa. I called to complain asked if they could come out to clean it. They denied the claim stating that it’s not Bob's fault, and that it’s a natural occurrence. I went back and forth with them, uploading more pics, still trying to state my case. I explained that I’ve never experienced this with my sister's cream sofa. I will never purchase anything from Bob's again.

    Bob’s Discount Furniture store, the employees at the store are awesome. They do the best they can!! Great management at the Castleton store. However their corporate customer service is horrible, they will not work with you. Try to get some couches picked up, first customer service refused to return the furniture so we had a deal with the store manager. Then we had to wait over 11 hours constantly being updated that the delivery people were on their way. Then the delivery people never showed up. Then we called customer service who advised us that the employees decided it was too hot to continue working at 10 o’clock at night. But they can reschedule for next week.

    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! Cheap price schemes and scam coverage will eventually catch up with them! BUYER BEWARE!

    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.

    First off, I purchased a section sofa in 2015 with the Goof Proof plan. My sales rep told me everything would be covered including pet damage. This year, my son brought home a ferret who he had let out of his cage and he ripped a huge hole in one of the cushions, I called the Goof Proof and what do ya know, it's not covered. 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. I AM VERY UNHAPPY AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANYTHING FROM BOB'S EVER AGAIN!

    I purchased several pcs of furniture from Bob's where I spent 3500 late April of 2018. Stuff was delivered 2nd week in May. 3 days after having furniture we were going to have a family member come so we decided to try the sleeper, we couldn’t open it! Called Bob's. After 30 min hold for appointment for technical to come out to look at the sleeper and also show 2 cushions that the backs were ripped up due to staples coming out! So he comes out says, "Let’s see how long the arms will take to order. If not we will replace the couch." Great. Only 2-3 week, WRONG!!! I waited a month. Contacted them today to find out that I can’t use my sleeper til possibly late SEPTEMBER or OCTOBER. ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?

    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.
