Do not waste money purchasing the extended furniture wear program

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - We purchased a couch, material is failing in some spots after sending pictures.
  • - We were told it is not covered, and there are pulls on cushions.

We purchased a 2000. couch and the material is failing in several spots after sending multiple pictures, including both invoices I was told because it is failing in several places it IS NOT COVERED!!!

This is BS!!! in the worst way...we have no children but you would not know it by looking at all the PULLS>>and THREADS hanging off the seat cushions as well as the backs of the pillow cushions...

BEWARE DON"T WASTE YOUR TIME MONEY OR EFFORT!!

User's recommendation: Don't get talked into the wear coverage ...its a huge scam!!!

  • - Defective leather sectional; replacement part delayed; social post prompted a section, but customer remains unhappy and will not shop there again.
Updated by user May 05, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with product replacement. After numerous attempted calls with no satisfaction we posted our grievance on social media and Gardner White reached out to us. They delivered a new section from their warehouse.I want to thank them for doing right by us and renewing our faith in the Company.

Original review updated May 05, 2025
Update:
We had posted about difficulties with a leather sectional we purchased from Gardner White. A section was defective and they ordered a part in early February but the delivery of the new part kept being pushed back and when we were notified it would be here in June, we had had enough.

I want to thank them for doing right by us and renewing our faith in the Company.
Bought a new leather sectional in January, and within one week, one of the sections sunk in and is very uncomfortable. I asked for a replacement but was only offered a replacement of the bottom of the sectional. I was promised the replacement part would be in by the end of March or the 1st week of April. When it didn't come, I called the store and informed them of the difficulties but never received a return call.

I called my salesman, and he checked and said it would be in sometime in June!

Meanwhile, I'm uncomfortable and the store profits! I will not shop at Gardner White again, having spent over $10,000 in the last few years and being treated like this.
Cons:
  • No respect or consideration of customer

Preferred solution: Exchange

User's recommendation: Go elsewhere

Misled by sales person - sold wrong item

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Called Waterford Gardner-White to find a frame for a mattress and slat system.
  • - Frame is short and needs a box spring; not compatible with slats.

Called the Waterford Gardner-White store and explained what I needed in a bed frame specifically for a mattress and slat system. Then I picked it up at their warehouse myself to speed up getting it into service (out of stock at the Waterford location).

Turned out to be a short version frame that requires a box spring. We have a slat system with no box spring - this frame will not work with just a mattress (just like the salesman was told)!!

Gardner-White then charged me a 25% fee for returning it?? WTF!

Cons:
  • Deceptive sales practices

User's recommendation: AVOID Gardner-White!! Seriously, go elsewhere

False claim to provide assembly services if you purchase “White Glove” delivery.

I paid for White Glove Delivery, however, the deliverers did not assemble stating they were not required to. Im a extremely unhappy customer and feel very misled about your services.

$50 gift card

AI Highlights
  • - Bought mattress and foundation Jan 31, 2025; promised a $50 gift card.
  • - No gift card or email; three HQ calls made; still no contact by Feb 28.

I purchased a mattress and foundation on Jan 31, 2025 and was promised a $50 digital gift card. Having never received an email, last week I did 2 live chats and Suzana claimed to have re-submitted the request and I should have the digital gift card by Feb.

24. Having not received the digital gift card I made three calls to your head quarters, leaving a message. It is now Feb. 28 and have not heard from anyone.

So I am assuming this gift card promise is a sales scam.

If there is no contact or a gift card by next week, I will be sending a complaint and a copy of my bill of sale to Attorney General Nessel. This is my first experience dealing with Gardner White and I must say I am very disappointed after hearing so ads proclaiming how wonderful your company is.

Sick of getting bombarded by ads from a place I'll never set foot in again

  • - Ads heavily feature Rachel; reviewer questions relevance.
  • - Couch and loveseat failed; replacements; backorder and misinformation about delivery.
Gardner White Furniture - Sick of getting bombarded by ads from a place I'll never set...

Is it just me or is this Rachel lady a bit full of herself? 99% of their ads just show her face with her lips flapping.

I thought this was a furniture store? Where is the furniture. Just got an ad in the mail and the whole front page is her face. Apparently, nobody ever told her to quit staring at herself in the mirror.

And her voice? OMG, annoying!!! Keep the commercials to the pros not the wanna be sofa *** She just has zero sincerity and acts more like a lying politician than a owner of a furniture store. Nobody's buying that fake perma grin smile.

As for the couch and loveseat you sold me they are P.O.S.!!!

You already had to replace the whole sofa a week after delivery and the 2nd one hurts my back so bad, I can't sit in it. These i had to get after you lied to me for 6 months about when my back ordered sectional would be in.

I will never buy from Gardner White again. Their furniture is absolute garbage and they lie through their teeth to get a sale.

User's recommendation: Go any place else. There's zero quality here.

Repair

AI Highlights
  • - I've been asking for sofa help for months.

  • - Left arm rest is soft and center seat leather is worn.

Months of asking for help. On and off

When sofa was new soft left arm rest.

Repair person came out. Told me to work padding. Doesn't work. Center seat leather worn out color done.

Have a warranty no help.

Someone in Rochester hills store helping and then yesterday declined. I've sent pictures many times.

Their warranty is a joke. 7 days for returns. No piece of furniture is going to look bad after 7 days. But three months later my $3000 couch looks like I have had it for years.

They know their furniture is crap thats why they only have a 7 day return policy. Had their repair person come out to appease me and he even said that they fill it with cheap and not enough foam.

User's recommendation: Don’t buy anything from here.

Mattress Pledge not revealed in sale!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Salesman promised 30-day risk-free return.
  • - 60-day hold; $199 processing; 10% fee; exchange only; no refund; adjustable base not returnable.
Contains 2 confidential files for company representatives

BUYER BEWARE! Not honest!

My hubby loved a bed, but I was waffling. The salesman said there was absolutely no risk and that if I didnt like the bed, we could return it. He said hed advise giving it 30 days just like a new pair of shoes. He handed us a folder with paperwork which I looked over!

Their 6 month guarantee (called their pledge) is not listed on the contract it is on the back of the folder where you would never look!!! You are required to keep a bed for 60 days before returning it, you must pay $199 processing fee as well as a 10% handling fee, you must exchange it for another mattress and you will not be refunded the difference!! You also cannot return an adjustable base! If we had known this, we would not have made this purchase!

We would have shopped around more. Our temperapedic bed feels nothing like the floor model, and Ive gotten very little sleep for the last 30 days!!

Secondly, their cooling mattress protector is not felt through sheets and sheets DO NOT stay on with it! They slip off with any movement!

We will never buy from this company ever again!! Of course I was told that mattress protectors were not returnable!

I am so blown away by how deceptive our salesman was, and how the company couldnt go against their pledge even though the pledge was never shared with us and misrepresented information was shared instead!

Loss:
$3507
Cons:
  • Deceptive sale - pledge info hidden on back of folder

User's recommendation: Do not shop here!!

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. They acknowledged the horrible experience and apologized.

I agreed to close the issue when they told me there were many more complaints from other customers and the team was let go. I agreed on $150 in Visa gift card.

Original review Aug 10, 2024
The delivery driver called me being rude so I hung up. This is after I did the bad review.

Not one I'm sorry. No uniform or name tag or company name on the truck to prove who they were. They come back to my home and start pounding on the door saying I knew I had the wrong mattress. Not true my email receipt showed I had a correct one.

They pounded on my door refusing to leave screaming to be let in. I live alone mind you. Finally I had to call the police because the drivers refused to leave. After supervising them exchanging the mattress and I went in another room, they left.

I felt threatened due to them acting so unprofessional!!

I would give back the mattress but they had already removed mine and through it away remember one thing.. when your on the job don't act threatening when it was your mistake to begin with

User's recommendation: Don't ever buy from them
