Bad service.. Inexperienced delivery company. Lost money…
Company promised to deliver 7k chair to my upstairs. They couldn't even get it in front door on first day as they couldn't lift the chair. People sent had no equip. to lift a300lb chair up steps. The stairs met required wideness. They took chair back and I talked to a rep who said they could have a tech come and remove the sides on chair to make it easier. Next day they called and asked for measurements again now refusing to take arms off chair as they would do in any repair. All doors met 32in minimum but one. If the door frame were taken off it also would be fine but no one has suggested that. I could have easily done this. They now offered to only put on first floor but that wasn't the deal. Chair was returned and now I have to pay return shipping. I'm getting a chair from a competitor now and guess what, they suggested I remove the door frame which I did, adding 4 inches to the width. (The Ogawa would have now fit) Ogawa is a huge dealer that should have sent a tech even if I had to pay for it. They also might have suggested that I remove the door frame. Ogawa didn't keep their word to send a tech. Customer service just a canned statement. They sent an unqualified delivery company who's 2 men told me they weren't told anything about chair going up stairs. They couldn't even carry the chair. Had no equipment. Shame on this large company. They take no responsibility for what I was told by their rep on the phone the day this all went south. My money minus shipping was refunded but not as quickly as promised. The ogawa chair was most definitely had a superior covering over the rollers. I'm frustrated that I had to settle for less.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We apologize for the issue with your order and that the available space did not allow the chair to be delivered in its packaged dimensions, as it could not be disassembled for entry into narrower areas. We understand how frustrating this experience was and are working swiftly to ensure your refund has been issued. We hope your new chair is everything you’re looking for, and we appreciate your patience while we make this right. Best regards, Erin
