Arhaus’s financing partner, Comenity Bank, is a fee mill dressed up as a credit card.
They routinely slow-walk paper checks so they can slap on late fees (up to $41). Mail a payment on time and watch it sit uncredited long enough to cost you. On top of that, they charge a monthly fee just for sending a paper statement.
Customer service is 100% offshore. When I asked for a U.S. representative I could actually understand, they hung up on me.
High rates, deferred-interest traps, and deliberate friction designed to extract more money. Avoid financing anything through Arhaus/Comenity.

Terrible Customer Service. Arhaus Doesn't Stand Behind Its Own Mistakes.
I expected much better from a premium retailer like Arhaus.
We placed an order for purple dinnerware in person at one of their stores. Unfortunately, the sales associate entered the order incorrectly, and blue dinnerware arrived instead.
What should have been a simple correction has turned into an incredibly frustrating experience.
I've sent multiple emails, left messages, called customer support, and contacted the original store. Nobody has been willing or able to resolve the issue.
The store told me the associate who placed the order no longer works there and they couldn't help. Customer support told me they could only process an even exchange, not correct the color, and that I would need to physically return everything to the store, place an entirely new order, and hope the store would honor my original discount.
Not once did anyone apologize, take responsibility, or seem remotely interested in helping.
Arhaus made the mistake, but somehow fixing it has become entirely my responsibility.
I've already purchased a couch from Arhaus and was considering buying beds and additional furniture. After this experience, I'm seriously reconsidering those purchases.
For a company selling premium furniture at premium prices, the customer service is shockingly poor. If they can't handle a simple dinnerware order correction, I have little confidence in how they would handle a more significant problem.
Very disappointing.

Arhaus is expensive low quality furniture
I purchased 2 leather recliners from Arhaus and took out the extended warranty. After about a year, one of the recliners is now squeaking when you sit or get up from it. Arhaus says we are not covered for squeaks. They sent a technician that oiled some areas and tightened some screws. I told him it was still squeaking and he said he would put it in his report. Customer Service says it's not covered. So thousands of dollars in recliners and squeaking is Ok. Will never shop there again. Save yourself aggravation and shop elsewhere.

Worst payment service with hidden cost
Worst payment service. Would rate 0 if I could. they are basically lone sharks. Will never buy anything from them until they fix their payment plan with hidden agenda with commenity bank and Bread financials. you'll get massive interest charge more than 10x more than the remaining balance. And the statement balance will hide the real remaining balance spcific for different plans to intentionally confuse you if you have multiple payment plans.

Inconsistent Pricing and Lousy Communication
The same item had three different prices: one on the website, one in the showroom, and another on my quote. When I asked about the lower price offered in the showroom just three days earlier, customer service told me it was no longer available.
When I asked follow-up questions to understand the discrepancy, the chat was ended twice without addressing my remaining questions. The inconsistent pricing and lack of follow-through left me disappointed and undermined my confidence in the company.

I would rate this a 0 if possible
I would rate this a 0 if possible. We have purchased more than $10K worth of lighting and furniture from Arhaus. Recently we ordered a flush mount light. Ordered in January, received the end of July. Our renovations were complete and we no longer needed the light. I was 9 days outside of the return window and asked at a minimum for a store credit/online credit, with the full intention of ordering additional items. I spoke with two people at corporate, the last conversation was that a manager would call me. I am still waiting and it has been well over a week. Unfortunately we will not purchase from this company again.
