Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

I ordered a gaming desk for my brother for his birthday, never received it. They told me to file a police report in order to get a replacement, but I couldn’t file one cause there’s nothing they could’ve done. So basically I was scammed $110 cause apparently no one can do anything. Didn’t get replacement or refund.

The app will not open without closing and opening it a few times. Also, the app will become frozen which then leads to another forceful close of the app.

I was really enjoying the Wayfair app and the products I received weekly as I update my apartment. However, I received an item in the wrong color. I know I selected the correct color because it matched what I had already been purchasing. The mistake was on their part, so I don’t understand why I have to pay for return shipping.
