Product is nice, staff is helpful. The problem is shipping and feeling like it is a bait and switch. Your shipping is twice that of anyone else. This is clearly a profit center and that is a poor way to do business. Will likely cancel my order unless the company can resolve this

Online order denying consumer legislation rights
This experience is with Australian head office customer service.
Delivered our modular sofa with no joiners, so have had to hold it together with tape. Got to almost 30 days of being held together with tape, so rejected the sofa in line with our consumer rights here in the UK (and King Living’s own terms and conditions). Have been emailing customer service (based in Australia) for weeks trying to get them to collect the incomplete sofa and refund us. Continually refusing. They have over £3,000 of our money and we can’t buy a replacement sofa from another company until they refund us. We are having to sit on beanbags while we wait for our money back as we can’t afford a replacement sofa until they refund us. Beyond appalling. How can they deliver a £1,500+ sofa with no joiners and expect us to be fine with it?
Thank you for the reply. ONU26050064

Dear Monet,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We do apologise in hearing about your experience and the frustration and inconvenience this situation has caused.
We understand how disappointing it must have been to receive your sofa incomplete and to then experience delays while trying to resolve the matter. This is not the standard of product or service we strive to provide. We appreciate the concerns you have raised.
May we please ask if you can update your review with your order number for reference number 01017720 as we have not located your details from this review.
Thank you for your patience, and again, we sincerely apologise for your experience.
Regards, Deb, King Living.

Beautiful furniture, but horrible customer service…
I had a great experience in the store with my sales person. Since they’re the follow up has been awful. I canceled my order 36 hours after ordering. It is now eight days that I am waiting for someone to get back to me with what they will do with my deposit. After the initial email they sent me that day saying they will look into it, I have emailed three times and no one gets back to me. Although your furniture is beautiful, your customer service is awful.

Hi Bonnie,
Thank you for the review.
I'm sorry to hear about your experience. While it's encouraging to hear that you had a great experience in store with your sales consultant, I understand your frustration regarding the lack of communication following your cancellation request.
Waiting more than a week for an update regarding your deposit, despite multiple follow up emails, is understandably disappointing. Clear and timely communication is important, particularly when a customer is seeking information about a cancelled order and refund process.
I appreciate you bringing this to our attention. As I already have your order details, I will review your case today and work with the relevant team to provide you with an update regarding your cancellation request and deposit.
Regards,
Oliver.

"Poor quality $13,979 sofa exhibiting visible defects within 2 weeks. Confirmed refund in writing, confirmed pickup by voicemail — reversed the next day. Still unresolved."
Bought a Concerto sectional package from King Living's Costa Mesa showroom for $13,979.48. Delivered May 2, 2026. Within two weeks the sofa showed multiple failures across the entire sectional:
Seat cushions with a visible slant, especially the corner seat which has a very evident slant - the unevenness is felt immediately when seated or lying down, with a noticeable slope across the surface.
Back cushions not meeting at a true 90-degree angle at the corner
Visible gaps between sectional components
Sagging across all seat cushions
Uneven cushion heights across the full length of the sofa
Fabric crinkling throughout
Overall the sofa does not exhibit the quality expected of high-end new furniture - it looks and feels like it was picked up from a salvage yard, not purchased new for $13,979.
All defects are documented with annotated photographs and video and sent to King Living.
King Living sent their own technician. He acknowledged the quality issues on site.
What followed was weeks of stalling across four different representatives -broken promise after broken promise on resolution dates.
On June 5, Customer Support Team Leader (name withheld for privacy) sent a written email with zero conditions: "we have agreed to proceed with the collection of the Concerto sofa package and arrange a full refund." King Living's logistics representative Liz then called on June 8 at 9:48 AM from 949-395-4161 confirming the pickup date - voicemail retained.
On June 9 - one day before scheduled pickup — the same team leader reversed everything. No new information. No new inspection. No specific review was cited - just a blanket claim that no manufacturing defect exists, directly contradicting her own written commitment four days earlier."
If you are considering King Living: the furniture failed in two weeks, their own technician agreed it was poor quality, they confirmed the refund in writing, confirmed pickup by voicemail - and then reversed it all the day before pickup without cause.
If there were an option for zero stars or a negative ranking, I would gladly use it.

King Living USA — Costa Mesa, CA
UPDATE June 10, 2026:
King Living has not responded to my Trustpilot review despite responding to other reviews within 24 hours. They have also not responded to my breach of contract demand letter or my escalation to the Orange County showroom.
I have now filed formal complaints with the California Attorney General, Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS), California Department of Consumer Affairs, and Better Business Bureau. A credit card dispute is in progress.
I also note that another Trustpilot reviewer (Janet, February 2026) reported an identical pattern — King Living promised a refund, failed to process it for months, and the dispute was only resolved through a credit card chargeback. This appears to be a pattern of conduct, not an isolated incident.
Case reference: COM26020133 — $13,979.48 still unresolved.
UPDATE June 17, 2026: Following my formal demand letter, the same team leader responded on June 11, 2026 committing to a written response by June 15, 2026. June 15 came and went with zero response, zero call, and zero email. This is now the sixth broken commitment in this matter spanning over six weeks.
King Living has ignored every communication channel — written demand letters, BBB complaint, California Attorney General, Bureau of Household Goods and Services (BHGS), Department of Consumer Affairs, FTC, NBC4 consumer complaint, and multiple public reviews. The structural defects have also worsened since original documentation — seat cushion sagging, fabric crinkling, and corner seat slant have all visibly increased.
Credit card chargeback in progress. Legal proceedings and media outreach now underway. $13,979.48 still unresolved as of June 17, 2026. Case COM26020133.
UPDATE June 21, 2026: King Living Head Office Customer Relations Manager (name withheld for privacy) committed to a full refund in writing on June 19, 2026 — the third written commitment made by King Living. He then demanded I withdraw my federally protected credit card chargeback as a condition of processing the refund. When I refused King Living went completely dark — no response, no pickup scheduled, no refund processed. King Living's own US logistics team confirmed they have received zero instructions about pickup despite customer relations manager claiming he was coordinating with them. Eight broken commitments over eight weeks. CFPB, NBC4 investigative reporter, BHGS investigation, California AG, DCA, BBB and FTC all active. $13,979.48 still unresolved. Case COM26020133.
TO DATE I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE REFUND.

Disappointed in quality and delivery
Ordered our couch in November 2025 and when we received it in late February 2026 it was not what we were expecting and had a quality issue. King was actually helpful in resolving the issue and ordered us the correct couch (although we paid the difference in price) and let us use the incorrect one in the meantime. Late May 2026 our new and improved couch shows up and has the same quality issue as the other one. I sent an e-mail outlining our issues and received no response whatsoever.

Dear Sara,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
While we are pleased that our team was able to assist to provide a temporary solution, we understand how disappointing it must have been to experience the same issue with the replacement sofa after such a long wait.
As I have not been able to locate your details with the information in this review may I please request if you can update this review with your order number for reference number 01011208.
Regards, Deb, King Living.

There Are Other Luxury Vendors
We were shipped items we did not order. There are 2 versions of the loveseats and we purchased the ones we were shown instore and shipped a less expensive model. We paid for the model we saw instore. After enquiring about the discrepancy we were told the salesperson said we wanted an item we did not even know existed. Our order took almost two months to arrive from a pacific rim location. We were informed the salesperson did not make a mistake and if we paid the difference and reordered we would have a shot at getting what we actually ordered in the first place. If you must shop there video all demonstrations and transactions.

Hi Wanda,
Thank you for the review.
I’m really sorry to hear about this experience. Receiving items that don’t match what you were shown and believed you had purchased is understandably frustrating, especially after such a long wait for delivery.
I’d like to look into this properly and review what has happened from order placement through to delivery so I can provide a clear resolution.
Could you please provide your order number? I’ll use this to investigate further and contact you directly.
Regards,
Oliver

Arrogant Business with small print T&C.
Upon goods arrival, they refused to give me delivery schedule till I make payment. Which I did not like, as I told them I will make payment in advance of delivery, I just need to know when you will deliver.
Delivery team was equally non-counteous, they refused to help me move my old sofa. I was alone at home and you can imagine my difficulty and embarrassment on their attitude and refusal.

Never did give us our $7000 back
Months after continuing to not process the refund promised, we finally had to ask our credit card company to dispute the charge. We won the dispute but only after a lot of time and effort. You better hope nothing goes wrong if you buy from them!

Hi Janet,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I am very sorry to read about the ongoing frustration you faced in trying to receive a promised refund, and the amount of time and effort it took to resolve this through your credit card provider. I understand how disappointing and exhausting this situation would have been, and I regret that it reached this point. This is not the experience we aim to provide, and I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.
Please reply with your order number so I can investigate this further and contact you directly.
Regards,
Oliver
