I was disappointed with my experience of buying a coffee table from Wayfair. Upon delivery, I realized the dimensions were not suitable for my space. Even without opening the box, I started the return process on the app. However, I was unhappy to find out that not paying the return fee would require me to travel a significant distance to a return location. Initially, I thought of using their credit card for other purchases, but given the issues, I plan to cancel the card as soon as it arrives. Thankfully, I found what I needed on Amazon, which has a much better return policy. Potential buyers should think carefully before purchasing from Wayfair due to their less-than-ideal policies.

Although I was given mixed information regarding the acceptance of my cancellation, ultimately, they accepted my return and provided a full refund. They were very professional, helpful, and apologetic. I would still caution one if they had doubts about their purchase as their 3rd party set-up restricts their refund policies.

I ordered 2 of the same items @ midnight on 5/3/26. About 20 min. later I cancelled the order. It is now 13 hrs. later and I still haven’t had an update as to whether or not they have accepted my cancellation. I was told that I would have to wait until the close of the next business day at 5-6pm to receive word. I expressed my disappointment that it takes this long as their competitors, AMAZON, respond with an answer within minutes. I’ll meet his in mind if I choose to use Wayfair again.

I just got off the phone with customer service. They ended up refunding me the wrong amount when she corrected it. She still was wrong leaving $27 in their hands as opposed to mine when I asked why she told me that it had something to do with shipping and FedEx and as much as she explained it to me the more and more I got confused. Basically, I returned something that I never even opened up as soon as I saw it it was the wrong color. I put it back in the box and I followed the instructions to the letter.
You have to print out QR codes you have to print out return labels. You have to make sure that you supply the box you tape up the box and bring it to FedEx. I did all of that and I still had to pay for shipping or some sort of payment that I didn’t understand her explanation. Something about how I used my own courier this wouldn’t have happened. And I said to her what do you mean by that my own courier? You are instructed to use FedEx. There is nothing else that tells you to do otherwise FedEx is the way to go and because I followed the instructions. I’m out almost $30 for something. I didn’t want immediately as soon as I saw it. I will never buy anything from Wayfair again.

I wish I could leave zero stars. I ordered a 3-piece quilt set -- full/queen size quilt and 2 shams. They arrived today. The box was 17"x7"x9" -- at first I thought only the shams had been delivered but no, it was the full set! The "quilt" was in no way a quilt--it was two sheets sewn together with practically no batting. I contacted customer service, who offered me 25% back and I could keep the "quilt" set. I asked to speak to a manager because I know that I could get a full refund, only to be told that the best they could do is 25% off because the manager and the rep share that same policy resource materials. I succumbed because I didn't want to duke it out with this person, and I told them I would leave appropriate reviews of both the product and the customer service wherever I could.

I purchased a physical card for my daughter-in-law for her birthday... It's two weeks later, and she still hasn't received it...only communication is with a bot. I will NEVER purchase anything from WAYFAIR again. They should take FAIR out of their name... No customer service at all... I might add, it was for $200, not insignificant.

Original Review: April 27, 2026
My delivery arrived today. I asked if they could adjust the price to reflect a $500 discount that went into effect right after I purchased the item, but they told me that wasn't possible. It was quite disappointing. I even offered to buy an additional item in exchange for store credit, but they said they couldn't do that either. I had planned to use their services as I need to replace several refrigerators, but I don't think I'll ever do business with them again.

BEWARE of Wayfair! The price they show on an item is not the price they will charge you. I wanted to buy a desk that was shown as 289.99 but when put in the cart it showed 319.99. I have spent the last hour doing an online chat and they will not honor the original sale price. Plus they insinuated that I sent them a picture from a competitor's website. Their customer service is terrible and not customer friendly. I will never order from them.

This has to be the worst company for customer service. I have no problem with the merchandise. The problem is that the calls go to another country and not only is their English bad, they have a problem understanding us. I tried to buy a storage shed. You have to repeat your personal info over and over. I gave them my email address 3 times and each time they read it back wrong even when I gave J as in John and so on and read it back wrong. I hung up since this was my 4th call. I had to call back and ask about the anchors.
When she came on I told her I wanted to know if the braces that go into the cement comes with it. Left on hold for quite awhile and comes back and says no the concrete does not come with it! I explained again, and put on hold and and left me hanging for 25 minutes. I guess it was her way to get rid of me by hanging up which I did. I can no longer handle calls going out to other countries for them to safe a buck when there are people here who need jobs. These people are not qualified to deal with customer care. I will no longer shop with any company that sends our calls out of the U.S. We need to complain to corporate about it. Time for us to send the message.

I ordered a chair for a rental unit located 3 hours from my home and received a confirmation email stating expected delivery on Saturday April 18th. I made the 3 hour trip to our rental unit to receive the item. I checked the item status Saturday and the expected delivery date was now Monday April 20th. Even though I was signed up for notifications, I received none regarding the shipping delay. I chatted with Wayfair customer service and requested compensation for the delay and an early delivery Monday so I could return home sooner. They said they do not compensate for delivery changes and cannot specify any delivery time request to the 3rd party shipping the chair.

This happened over a year ago. I had ordered a lot of stuff from Wayfair, mostly bedding, so when a sale came up for desks I jumped at the chance to take advantage of it. After all, I'd had good experiences in the past and I assumed there would be no problems. The day came and the box arrived. I was very excited as I needed this desk for my computer. Everything looked fine--from the outside, then I opened it. The packing materials looked fine but as I removed them I discovered that there was a deep crack in the desk. It looked as though it had been packaged while already damaged. My reasoning is that if it had been damaged that badly after packing wouldn't the packing materials be damaged too?
I have no working printer so I couldn't print up a return invoice. I would have had to go to the library and I have no care to get me there. It's sitting there now propped against the door to my office until. I can figure out what to do with it. I will not order another thing from Wayfair. Up until this time my experiences have been good but now? No way! There is no excuse for this to have happened don't know how this slipped through but it has changed my views of this company. I've read about experiences of people waiting for refunds that never come. High time for Wayfair to change its ways.

Safety Hazard & Zero Support – Wayfair Has Abandoned a Loyal Customer. While this gazebo is aesthetically pleasing, the assembly was an absolute nightmare, requiring a professional an entire day to complete. However, the difficulty of setup pales in comparison to the abysmal quality and lack of support. Despite being located 25 miles from the ocean, this unit is already covered in rust. This is a blatant failure of the promised 5-year anti-corrosion warranty. My primary concern is the safety of my grandchildren; I cannot have them playing under a structure that is structurally compromised by rust.
I chose Wayfair because I trusted the brand to stand behind the products they sell. Instead, they "dropped the ball" and simply passed me off to a manufacturer’s phone number. I didn't pay the manufacturer—I paid Wayfair, and I expected them to facilitate a resolution for a defective, potentially dangerous product. Be advised: I will not stop until this is resolved. I trusted this company with my money and my family's safety, and I will be updating this review daily across all platforms until Wayfair takes accountability and fixes this.

Delivery was due 10th. My husband and I took the day off work and got rid of our old bed. No delivery… I contacted Wayfair and was given promised delivery in 2 days. It’s now 5 days later and wayfair are just giving me the runaround. Absolutely awful company. NEVER AGAIN.

I had a very disappointing experience with Wayfair’s delivery service. I ordered an expensive couch set (a 3-seater and a 2-seater) and paid extra for in-home setup and removal of packaging, expecting a smooth and professional experience. The delivery window provided was 3:15–7:30 PM, but the delivery team showed up over two hours early at 1:00 PM when no one was home. When I spoke with the driver, I asked if he could wait just a few minutes for my husband to arrive and let him in, but he refused. Instead, I was told the only option was to reschedule, potentially delaying delivery anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months... which is completely unreasonable.
To make matters worse, the driver hung up on me during the conversation. This level of customer service is unacceptable, especially for such a large purchase where customers are paying extra for convenience and care. Overall, this was a very frustrating experience, and I expected much better communication and professionalism from Wayfair and their delivery partners. To make it even better, wayfair offered me 10% off my next purchase.. Thanks.

Ordered a outdoor umbrella stand and parts were missing, i.e. post and needed stem and hardware to assemble stand. Contacted customer service and was referred to a link for instructions to assemble. This was not the problem. The problem was missing parts. After providing my email address I heard nothing further. I went to a local store and purchased another umbrella stand. No follow up from Wayfair was frustrating.

Updated. They called me back and will take the nearly $3,000 dollar sofa back and not charge me any fees. A bit of a hassle but, considering other reviews I have read about their delivery service, maybe they are turning a new leaf!

Terrible customer service. Ordered a nearly $3,000 piece of furniture. Waited for weeks. Then delivery team was terrible and after 3 weeks of cancelling their delivery I called to cancel the sofa and was told that I would have to pay a delivery fee of more than $300 although I never received the item. NEVER AGAIN!

Repeated issues with billing and customer service. I did not receive any notice before an automatic annual renewal charge, which is required under California’s automatic renewal rules. I only discovered the charge after it went through and canceled immediately. Support initially told me a refund had been approved, then later reversed it days later, stating I had added the membership manually, which is not accurate. It auto-renewed after a year with no warning. Customer service responses have been generic and unhelpful AI slop, and resolving issues has required repeated follow-up.
I had already stopped using Wayfair due to previous unresolved billing and refund issues, so I would not have intentionally re-added a rewards or membership program under those circumstances, especially given prior problems with refunds and account credits not being handled correctly. I’ve also had refunds not processed correctly in the past and had to go back and forth multiple times just to get basic billing issues resolved.
On another order, I was charged twice for shipping and had to dispute it. In my experience, these are not isolated mistakes. They point to a recurring pattern of billing problems and inconsistent support responses that make it difficult to trust the charges being applied. Bottom line: too many billing issues and too much time spent fixing problems that shouldn’t be happening in the first place.

I had a very frustrating and disturbing experience with Wayfair. I purchased a product that arrived defective, and despite purchasing a warranty, I was unable to get proper support or replacement parts, as guaranteed. I wish there was a mad-face option too. Zero stars. The company would not provide replacement parts or arrange proper pickup of the defective item, even after I was told they would. I was told by at least four different representatives that my refund was “being processed,” among a plethora of other things but my refund never materialized.
After weeks of no resolution, I filed a dispute with my bank. Just this week, THIS WEEK, 6 months later, I was told I will NOT receive a refund because I initiated the dispute with my bank, and that was a deal breaker for Wayfair. Contradicts everything I had previously been told. I received the warranty refund back in Sept/Oct when all of this started, but NOT the item refund. According to Wayfair, "once a customer tries to get a refund from their bank, Wayfair prevents that from happening by sending their cancellation policy letter to the bank, which protects them," the representative said; she also said, "that's a trick box they have." That's from Wayfair. This experience showed a lack of accountability and consistency in customer service as well as deceptive and fraudulent practices. I would strongly recommend caution when purchasing, especially for higher-value items. Not recommend. Even with warranty protection.

I have always been a satisfied Wayfair customer. I've purchased everything from garden gnomes to beds. Now, I am very disappointed and will not purchase from them again. Last week, I received three boxes containing items I DID NOT ORDER. When I spoke with customer service, I was told that I could return the items and would receive a refund MINUS OVER $50 FOR RETURN SHIPPING. Now I'm concerned that I may received other items I did not order.

This is worth a read! Hard to put into words how bad this retail experience has been. Bought an Emma mattress, didn't like it, tried to return it. At first, I was told I couldn't return the item, and it is non-refundable. After successfully arguing this point with them using Wayfair's own terms and conditions, they agreed to collect and refund the mattress. I'm told I'll get a call from the collections guys before collection. No call. Guys turn up, can't take the mattress because they were never told they're collecting a mattress. No room, seemingly.
They assured me they will call back, but as you guessed it, no call back. I spend another hour online with chat support, arranging collection, going through the same motions and re-explaining the same things. I'm assured collection will happen this time and I will be contacted to confirm a time. Again, no call. And, no collection. I go online again, more time-consuming, lengthy live chat explaining the same things - this time I am absolutely assured collection is happening, the support agent even sends me a link for a transport company and tells me to book the collection day myself. I do that. But again, no call, no collection. I get back on to Wayfair live chat support. This time, I am told that there is no collection option possible, and that I must dispose of a king-size mattress myself, at my own expense if I want a refund.
They insisted this was the ONLY option and that for "complete transparency," there was no option for them to collect the mattress. I asked them to confirm in writing that they were in breach of their own terms and conditions by now refusing to collect the mattress and insisting we cover the expense of disposing of it. And, unbelievably, they confirmed that. I then requested to speak to a manager. They have now assured me the mattress will be collected, and I will receive an email confirmation detailing the collection. But hey, guess what? No email confirmation. Going in circles. Being scammed. What a shockingly bad retailer.

I usually hold back on writing reviews, but this recent experience has compelled me to share my thoughts on exceptionally poor service. After investing over $5,000 in merchandise from Wayfair, I anticipated a seamless purchasing process. At first, everything appeared to be in order, but that quickly shifted. I received a text indicating that an assembly person would come on Wednesday at 8:30 AM, which led me to believe they would take care of assembling the entire bedroom set. It turned out that this person was only responsible for attaching the bed rails, while the person assigned to assemble the bed wouldn't arrive until the 11th. It's incredibly frustrating that the initial message didn’t clarify this limited scope of work.
Moreover, when my dresser was delivered, I had paid for inside delivery, but it was simply dropped off at my front door without any notification—no knock or doorbell to check if someone was home. After reaching out to customer service to voice my concerns, I decided against keeping the furniture. I refuse to engage with a company that fails to communicate effectively. Rather than spending on celebrity endorsements for your advertisements, consider investing in a more dependable delivery and assembly system. I assure you, if anyone asks for my opinion on this company, they won’t receive a favorable review—I will not support a business that offers subpar service.

Horrible. Ordered nightstands. Put together, and was missing parts. Called immediately and was told 10 days replacement parts would be delivered. One month later still not received, so I called, spoke to a CS rep and she promised me 2 weeks or refund. Never received and no refund. Put a credit card dispute to reverse, but too late. Never buy from this shit company. They don’t honor their word or products. Pathetic.

Please beware when purchasing furniture from Wayfair. It may look ok at first for the price but it falls apart quickly and if after 30 days they do NOT stand by their products.

Extremely disappointed with this experience. I intentionally ordered this nightstand from Wayfair at a higher price because the original delivery date worked for my needs. Since placing the order, the ETA has been changed three different times, and it is now marked simply as delayed with no clear delivery date. The most frustrating part is that the item has not even left the warehouse, yet when I contacted customer service, I was told I could not cancel the order because a shipping label had already been created.
Creating a label is not the same as shipping the item, and refusing cancellation before it has even been handed to the carrier is unacceptable. To make matters worse, the exact same item is now listed for $25–$30 less, and Wayfair refused to honor a price adjustment. So I am left paying more, waiting longer, and unable to cancel and purchase elsewhere. This feels like terrible customer service and an unfair policy that leaves customers with no reasonable options.

I ordered a couch from Wayfair. When ordering, it did not say the item was out of stock or low stock, it let me purchase like there were no problems, but every time I looked, shipping was delayed. Called customer service they gave me some BS about oh, sorry, it will ship in the next few days. They lied. It kept getting delayed and finally, the last message said it wouldn't be shipped for a few months.
I canceled the order and went looking for another couch on Wayfair thinking this was just a one time fluke, or issue with that specific manufacturer. So, I ordered another couch and made sure it wasn't from the same manufacturer. It happened again almost exactly the same as the 1st, finally ending up telling me that it wouldn't be shipped for a few months.
I canceled that couch and like an idiot, bought a 3rd couch from Wayfair. But before I ordered, I called customer service and after giving them the story, I asked them to call the manufacturer to make sure it was in stock and that they could ship it in a reasonable amount of time. CS came back and said it was in stock and the manufacturer said there would be no problem with shipping, so I bought it.
That was almost 2 weeks ago and as of now, I've received 2 messages that the shipment is delayed. Something about the courier having problems with shipping the large pieces. I called CS and canceled order #3 today. These were all ordered from 3 different manufacturers, and all of them did the same thing. CS couldn't tell me what happened but did agree when I said Wayfair seems to have a problem shipping large items. You would think they would be working on a way to get this fixed because they lost my business and I surely can't be the only one this has happened to.
I've been a customer of theirs for several years, have spent more money on that site that I could even guess at how much, and they lost my business because they can't figure out how to ship large items to their customers. They just keep you hanging until finally they have to tell you that you won't be getting the item for months. But they sure don't stop you from buying them, letting you believe there is no problem with stock or shipping. It's absolutely ridiculous they can't do anything about it and don't check the practices of the manufacturers they use, like can they actually ship the items they sell. It is so unprofessional and idiotic to lose customers over this. So be very wary if you order anything from them that's fairly large. You will have a very bad experience.
