Terrible Kitchen Quality and Warranty

published

Within 3 years of having a new ikea kitchen our cabinets have begun to flake like wheetbix and the sink has chipped around the edges. Warranty replacement was requested and rejected due to "excess water in the kitchen" Last time i checked we never had a flood inside the house and of course we mop but we dont swim in the bloody water. Terrible service avoid buying a kitchen from these clowns full stop

Terrible customer service and faulty product

published

Purchased set of drawers via click and collect. Drawer runners were made of cheap plastic and faulty (would not sit flat). Took the item back to North Lakes. Staff offered a refund card, what they did not explain is that it cannot be used for online purchases, or even click and collect. Called Customer Service and after waiting for an answer for 20 minutes, they confirmed the refund card cannot be used for click and collect/ delivery. This was not explained at time of item return. Very misleading and disappointed with the lack of transparency.

Click and collect - don’t do it

published

Very bad click and collect service. Did this twice, first time booked the time in, but waited 50 mins. Guys where very disorganized. Second time received a text confirming order ready to pick up that day. Called in to check it was and they said yes, so went in. I’m still waiting in my car now after 45 mins. Called from the car from car bay twice now- still no sign. Seriously. I don’t understand what’s so hard?? Not worth the hassle dealing with them.

Missing a box from order for a Month

published

Ordered several different big furniture items. Delivery guys ask to sign without giving time to check the order and then took off. I realized too late that the sofa was supposed to be in 3 separate boxes and they only delivered 2. Despite several e-mails exchanged with customer support I'm still missing that box after a month. They say the item was out of stock and they would contact me when back in stock, all excuses because checking online gives the item in stock and I still haven't heard from them.
If it wasn't for the customer support, stock problems and delivery process this would be a 5 star reviews, because the furniture is good value for money and not too hard to put together.

Very unhappy with my purchase.

published

Unfortunately, I purchased a the LINNMON / ADILS desk for university study. Whilst the desk was relatively easy to assemble, I am very unhappy with this product. The slightest movements make the desk shake and is quite distracting. I have tried many times adjusting the height of the legs to fix this issue but it continuous. I would not recommend this product.

Rude worker

published

Went into the Richmond IKEA and asked a worker for help, worker straight out said no and go online. I understand the social distancing at the moment, but she could have answered some questions from 5 metres away especially since I saw other workers helping customers from a distance. I didn’t see the issue or threat to her health by asking her to help me answer some questions from a distance. Poor customer service.Shame since I couldn’t purchase what I needed as I needed help

Poor quality and worse customer service

published

Purchased a METOD laundry and Saljan benchtop.
After multiple failures by IKEA to deliver the correct items, discovered defective benchtop with laminate bubbling and warping. IKEA customer service immediately dismissed the case stating warping is a result of cutting, the benchtops are designed to cut and fit and install, warping should not occur. My 15 year old existing benchtop looks better than the brand new IKEA benchtop.

No customer service

published

Visited store with intention to purchase kitchen as needed in a hurry. Corona virus precautions in place so i had phoned day earlier to check staff availability. However I was berated by 2 staff for not making appointment then told not to bother as staff contact face to face was about to be cancelled. Told to plan my kitchen myself at home. I fully support precautions but I did not appreciate the way I was treated, the condescending manner or the sarcastic comments. I left and purchased elsewhere. Don't usually shop ikea and have zero plans to return.

Poor customer service

published

Beware of their poor customer service and delivery info. We ordered our items online, and the delivery date was stated to be within a week from our order. BUT when we got the confirmation email, the delivery date was stated as 1 month later! We called customer service and [name removed] was very apathetic about our situation and wasn't helpful at all. She even made a sarcastic comment during our conversation and made the whole experience very upsetting and unpleasant for us. We are extremely disappointed with IKEA and their customer service. We canceled our order, and we will never shop at IKEA online again.

Have to drive to there. The quality are mostly fine. I prefer easier assemble steps. Delivery fee is too high. I wish IKEA can have more real plant decoration collection

Love the Ektorp couches, they look gorgeous

published

I recently purchased 2 x Ektorp 2 seaters in white. I'm extremely happy, they are beautiful quality (thick fabric & not cheap & nasty!) & they even better than I thought they'd look. I thought they'd maybe not fit well given they have covers (too loose or tight in different places) but they're perfect, they obviously ensure their fit. Easy enough to put together & follow the instructions & Im not good at all at esembling things.

Claustrophobic

published

Trekking through 400 kilometres of cramped, store pathway isn't my idea of a good shopping experience. I felt like I was lost in a maze, with little chance of survival. I thought I was never going to reach the end. If you do visit, take food, water and a swag; and three weeks annual leave.

Very poor quality products! Waste of money!

Crappy products. Extremely poor quality. You will fool yourself into believing that you're saving money, while in reality, you are throwing your money away buying their poor-quality products! But people are cheap.

Faulty IKEA instructions

published

Purchased 2 display cabinets, IKEA’s own instructions were faulty. As a result the shelves collapsed, breaking family heirlooms. IKEA offered me paltry compensation that came with a heavy handed lawyer and gag order.

QLD, Logan

We have been to Ikea Logan 3 times over the past 5 weeks and on every occasion we found their bathrooms unclean (both the parents and adult bathrooms) also with no paper towels available. The overall impression was that bathrooms haven't seen a cleaner in a long time or the cleaner lacks attention to detail. One would expect it to be immaculate upon arriving just after opening hours. Comparing bathrooms from shopping centres, Ikea disappoints.
