Wrong product sent, stressful experience
I ordered a custom Isaden compatible destop in Birch Ply and paid in full. Lead time was supposed to be 6-8 weeks.
I strongly advise getting a wood sample and checking the product carefully. I paid a premium price and was really excited about getting my new desktop, but my heart sank when I opened it up and found an sloppy, unfinished product (no Idasen holes drilled), which wasn't anything like the wood sample I was sent.
I emailed them straight away, but it took 9 days for them to offer a replacement or refund because the person handling the case went on leave and didn't hand over to anyone, leaving me to chase a response. It turns out the desk had been made in Rubberwood ply, a cheaper and less durable material. They were apologetic and blamed illness for the slow response, so I thought things would improve.
I agreed to a replacement, which they said they could make in 2 weeks. I gave them the next available week I could accomodate a delivery but then communication fell silent again and I had to chase a response and wait.
They refused to tell me which day the delivery would be because they were planning it around their own schedules. Still no update on Wednesday the week before the delivery. Only after I chased them, they slotted a delivery in for the last slot at the end of the week.
Their laissez faire response feels like they just did not take this error seriously. If it was me, I would have gone out of my way to respond quickly and offer reassurance to the customer.
I purchased this item in the belief I would have it within 8 weeks but in total it took 13.5 weeks. Wasn't worth the stress, hassle or the disruption of having to accomodate two deliveries on working days. I've had a hollow apology but they still charged me full price because they don't do partial refunds, "mistakes can occasionally happen" and they think they "resolved the error swiftly in the agreed timeframe".
I really feel taken advantage of and they clearly don't care about the impact of their behaviour on me. I wish I had gone to a different company.
