Our Everyroom Experience
We purchased sofas and ottomans from Everyroom on-line in February. We chose this manufacturer because they had a style we liked, and were a Canadian company that we wanted to support even if it meant paying a premium.
The furniture was delivered on a snowy day in March. It was sent to us in Edmonton from Calgary, in the back of a U-Hall truck. The goods arrived virtually unprotected, except for a very thin plastic wrapping film which was easily torn. Despite the snowy conditions, the delivery people wore no shoe protectors or gloves, and we had to put cardboard down to protect our floors.
The first item off the truck was frog-walked across the truck’s dirty floor, which damaged it. We immediately stopped them from unloading more items and advised them we wouldn’t accept damaged goods, but were told they had no choice but to drop everything off. We then phoned Everyroom to let them know what was happening, and were told that because delivery was being done by a “third party”, it couldn’t be returned with them; however, if we documented the issue through their on-line help desk portal, our concerns would be addressed. We submitted our complaint together with photos of the damaged pieces the next day, and again requested the goods be taken back. Based on the shockingly careless delivery of their own product, we no longer had faith that this company had any quality control standards, and feared their furniture simply would not last. We therefore requested a full refund, but were stonewalled on this at every turn.
We did not check this company’s ratings before our purchase, but after this episode discovered that they have one-star reviews across the board on Trustpilot, and therefore a rating of poor – and now we know why. Had we seen this before buying from Everyroom, we would never have purchased their goods.
