Worst Customer Service Experience
Worst customer service experience. Bought Kova sofa and couldn’t use for my therapy practice. People can’t sit on it, so deep that feet hang over the edge, no support for their back. Advised I wanted to return after two weeks. They said I could but then when I tried to go about getting shipping information, their responses were delayed to me. By the time, I gathered the information needed about the packaging as I didn’t have the original and asked for a shipping label I was told it was past the thirty day return period (two days). I filed the claim seeking return two weeks after I received the sofa. Part of this was my fault as the information for the shipping went to my spam mailbox and I didn’t see right away. But, too their responses took two days. I felt like they should have honored the request as I filed this within the 30 day return window. I had also tried to exchange the couch but they wouldn’t let me because the one I selected was a different price.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — I’m truly sorry to hear how disappointing and frustrating this has been, especially since you purchased the Kova sofa for your therapy practice and it didn’t meet your needs for comfort and support. I also apologize for the delays you experienced while trying to move forward with the return. I understand how, after reaching out within the first two weeks, it felt unfair to be told the return could not be completed due to the return window closing shortly afterward. You’re absolutely right that you initially contacted us well within the 30-day return period, and we understand how email delivery issues (including messages going to spam) can cause delays that are easy to miss. We also hear your frustration regarding the exchange request and the pricing difference. If you can reply with your order number and the best email address to reach you, we’ll work to make this right if we haven't already. My direct email is [email protected].
