I placed order for modular kitchen and wardrobes to COOKSCAPE / ORCHID designs and am suffering from it. I just wanted to alert you guys about them. They have offices in Koramangala (next to Sukh Sagar) and in Jayanagar. They will speak as if they are professional, blah... etc and in the end are worse that carpenters. For my apartment they collected the money on delivery of material on August 21,2006. There were short supplies of major item like doors for kitchen unit, laminate for wardrobe, etc. More than a month,they have not... read full review »

On Wednesday, Sept. 27th, we had a sales rep. visit our home regarding the installation of laminate flooring in my kitchen. We scheduled the installation for that Friday, September 29th. When the installers arrived, I was informed that the factory had shorted the amount of tile needed to complete my kitchen. After making numerous phone calls, I was informed that somebody would be bringing the needed materials to my home so the installers would be finished that day. When the extra box of tiles arrived (which, might I add were brought by a... read full review »

This company has been the biggest let down of all purchases I have ever made. They gladly took my order of over 7000 dollars and said the furniture would come in six weeks and twelve would be the longest. After 5 months and still no phone call back to my enquirey, I gave up and cancelled. They told me they would give a full refund and I expected it the next couple of days. It has now been over a month, and they ignore all my phone calls and even hang up on me when I call. I am now looking for a lawyer and have to go through the painful... read full review »

My complaint is about a furniture store in Indianapolis, Indiana. I ordered a few pieces of furniture from Gerdt Furniture in July 2006. When it arrived I was going to drive to Indy and pick it up to avoid any additional charges for delivery. However, after talking to the warehouse on 2 occasions I was told that the delivery charge would only be $35. We discussed this at some length as I was skeptical that this would be the total charge, but I was reassured three times during the conversation that $35 was the charge. Based on this information... read full review »

Upon returning from a week long vacation we discovered our new 6 month old Sears Trio refrigerator stopped working. The freezer section was fine. Everything in the refrigerator section had to be discarded. We called Sears, 1-800-469-4663 (July 15, 2006) for service as the product was under warranty. We were told they could have someone there on Tuesday - July 18th, 4 DAYS LATER! This infuriated me, it's the middle of summer, and we have no refrigerator for 4 days. The service technician arrives 4 days after our initial call only to tell... read full review »

Dear Readers, My husband and I ordered cabinets from Cabinets4Less.com in December, 2005. We posted our complaints about this company in February when we still hadn't received our cabinets. We posted our complaint with the Attorney General's Office in New York. We also used the services of our friend who is a private detective. The owner of Cabinets4Less did stay in contact with us. Finally, after many emails and many hours of using different agencies to help us we did get our money back. THIS IS WHAT CONSUMERS SHOULD KNOW ABOUT... read full review »

I ordered a leather sofa on 7/4/2006, it was delivered on 7/22/2006. When I first sat on it, it wasn't as comfortable as I thought it would be - It certainly felt different from the display one. But more than that, I felt really uncomfortable of the leather smell. I started having headache and nausea when I sat on the sofa. I felt sick all day, and had to take anvil. I went to the store the next day and explained my situation. but the store manager seemed very upset, as if I made her upset or what, and told me they couldn't do... read full review »

I purchased Furniture from Bassett Furniture the wood is already rotting away and half the wood is not even stained and if it is stained it's all different colors stains. Also there looks like they cliped out pieces of the wood on some of the furniture where it should be totally flat and smooth and there are indents of circles also in the wood that should not be there at all. Now I have to spend my own money to get all the mistakes they made taken care of because they are unwilling to do so. The Bsssett people are very rude too. read full review »

We purchased Rhino decking in 2002/2003. By the second summer we noticed that we were getting a lot of mildew spots on the boards and the spaces between the boards were narrowing. This was getting worse as the summer went on. Then it began buckling and pushing the railing system out. After contacting the company they asked us to send them pictures of the problem which we did. They said the problem was because there was no spacing between tthe boards and that we installed the deck improperly. We tried to explain that it had been put together... read full review »

I am very unhappy with the way your store policy of returns are. If that's the way your going to run things, train your employs to tell all customers that if you want to return an item, there will be a store credit issued. I purchased some draperies on Saturday, not 100% positive on the color, so I asked one of your employees if I had a problem can I return them and they said yes, They didn't say you can return them for credit. I feel like I was robbed out of $77.98 CASH. I am now stuck with a gift card and almost $80.00 in credit... read full review »

My wife and I bought a dinning room table set at Levitz – total cost over $1,400. They attempted the first delivery the following week. The dining table must have been dropped, it had a huge dent on one corner – did not accept the table I’m told they would deliver a new one next week. At this point no that big a deal, they will have one to us next week. Also, one of the no-arm-chairs had arm-chair parts and subsequently had four holes on the seat base – needs to be replaced.

We recently had a pool built in our backyard and hired Country Club Sod and Landscape to install the backyard irrigation system and resod my front yard with St. Augustine and my neighbor's side and backyard with Bahia. We hired Country Club because, according to them, they ordered their sod from Duda, the sod was warranted against weeds and insects, and they did not require payment until the work was complete. We noticed weeds after the first week of installation and contacted Country Club. They sent Ed Stein out to look at our lawn and... read full review »

I registered a complaint about 'blistering' on my brand new floor, shortly after the completion of odds & ends at my brand new home in Wells, ME.

I purchased a sectional sofa from Oak Tree Furniture in March of 2006; it was promised in 4 to 8 weeks and was delivered 4 months later. I was never contacted with an explanation for the delay.

When I went to the store for the first time I was directed to a salesperson that I was told was an expert on sofas. I told her that I knew nothing about buying sofas and that I had never purchased a sectional sofa before. I... read full review »

12/23/2005 I hired the above company to fix 2 leaks in my roof for $948. They were very aggressive about being paid, even when the job was not completed (I did wait until it reportedly was to pay), they were then supposed to complete another job for us (but never showed). Then a couple of months later, one of the leaks started leaking again exactly the same way it had been. I called twice, my partner called once, and I called one last time - each time we got voicemail, and there has been no return of phone calls nor any other attempt to... read full review »

On March of last year I signed a contract with the owner of International Cabinetry, Joe Martin, to build cabinets for our kitchen. First of all the cabinets we received at our home on July 2005 did not have the specifications we had agreed on per the plans submitted by our decorator to International Cabinetry.

On May 3, 2006 I had my windows replaced in my home by Window World, Odessa, Florida. After installation, I noticed two "scratches" on the inside of two of my sashes. When I called the company to let them know, Linda told me that this can sometimes happen, and they would order new sashes, which would take about 10 days. They said they would call and schedule a time to come out after the new sashes were in. I waited 14 days and then called, since I had not heard back. During that time I noticed that the caulking job was inferior and... read full review »

I AM ANGRY!. I had my GE microwave/range wall unit installed on February 10, 2006 and I am so unhappy. My reasons are: The oven fan comes on when you set the bake time and remains on sometimes 2 hours after you have turned it off. I know that ovens need fans but why must it stay on continuously and why must it be loud. I cannot sit in my breakfast room or talk on the phone without hearing that annoying roar. I have owned GE appliances before and never have I had an over with a fan that is loud. No one wants to cook and hear the fan... read full review »
