Anyone can deliver a item in good condition, it is only when things go wrong that you really get to see how good a company is at customer service. We purchased a table and the top arrived damage. I... See more

The delivery time was much quicker than originally projected - a welcome surprise! The piece was easy to set up, looks great and has worked flawlessly. For the price - can’t find a better choice!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Nice products and easy to order; quick delivery. I have to return one item because it doesn't match the other so we will see how customer service is real soon.

The delivery was chaotic

The delivery was chaotic. I received an email saying that my delivery was scheduled (without any input from me on day/timing). The email was sent 24 hours before they scheduled the delivery, but I didn't get it until the workday was over and when I called to reschedule, the place was closed. So they showed up when I wasn't there. They called and we rescheduled. Then they showed up 3 hours BEFORE our scheduled time. And they left it. Even though the email states that an adult has to be there to receive it - they just left it. I had to hire movers to get it inside.

Great console

The piece is perfect in my living room. Its good quality; well constructed, no blemishes in the wood or the finish. The delivery was seamless.

Quick response to address issues

We encountered an issue with the coffee table - one of the hinges was broken. They were very quick to address the issue and arranged a replacement part to be shipping to me via Fed ex. I was able to replace the hinge myself. Very responsive.

Great experience with customer service

I ordered a media console which was delivered within 10 days. The first media console I received had a good finish but was slightly warped showing some flex. It impacted movement of the front console door. I reached out to the customer support with pictures. They promptly offered to replace the console with a different model, which again was delivered within 10 days. I only had to cover the extra price of the new console minus the cost of the old console. They also offered to get rid of the old console. The team kept me updated on the replacement. The new console is sturdy and heavy. It is well built with good soft close hinges. We love the new console!

DO NOT BUY: Never Received Order, Refusing to Resolve Refund

I ordered thousands of dollars worth of furniture from Hernest and never received a single item.

After failing to deliver, they claimed a refund was processed, but shifted the blame once a formal chargeback was filed through my bank. Hernest claims they "accepted the chargeback," yet my financial institution confirms the funds have not been released or cleared on Hernest's end.

They are holding thousands of dollars of my money hostage while passing the buck between customer service and their merchant bank. I have given them every opportunity to resolve this, but they refuse to cooperate or provide proof of release.

Save yourself the risk and endless headaches—do not buy from this company.

Dear Jessica VanLeeuwen,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We understand how important it is to receive the furniture you ordered and have your payment concerns properly addressed.

We recognize your concerns regarding the undelivered order, the refund status, and the conflicting information you have received about the chargeback. We would like to clarify that the chargeback was accepted by HERNEST, and the disputed funds are no longer held by us. We understand that your financial institution has provided different information regarding the release of the funds, and we recognize that this situation needs further clarification.

We take your concerns seriously and want to assure you that we are not overlooking your case. We are already in contact with you via email and will continue following up with you there to review the situation, clarify any outstanding questions, and work with you toward a resolution.

Thank you for your continued communication and for giving us the opportunity to address this matter.

Beautiful piece of furniture

Beautiful piece of furniture, matches my antique dresser! I had my eye on it for months and I’m so happy with it. My delivery driver was amazing, brought it in and unpacked it for me even though he didn’t have to. I recommend this company whole heartedly.

Horrible service

unit was just dropped off and not unpacked-the drivers asked for $180 to unpack it.
I have never bought an appliance or a piece of furniture that was not unpacked. I called to complain and no one called me back from Hernst.
Also, the color of the unit is not what I expected.
It is almost pink- one of the doors is mis aligned and the top looks cheap- I am very disappointed

Dear PHYLLIS MATYJEWICZ,

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that you expected a more complete delivery service and that several aspects of your furniture did not meet your expectations. We would like to address your concerns.

Regarding the unpacking service, our Free Threshold Delivery includes delivery to the first dry area of your home, such as your garage, porch, or building lobby. It does not include unpacking, assembly, or in-room placement. These additional services are available with our White Glove Delivery.

Regarding your contact with our team, after speaking with you by phone, we escalated your case and followed up with you by email. We appreciate your patience as we continue working with you to address your concerns.

We are also sorry to hear that the color, door alignment, and tabletop appearance were not what you expected. We would appreciate the opportunity to review these concerns in more detail and better understand your experience so we can determine how best to assist.

Thank you again for bringing these matters to our attention. We will continue communicating with you by email and work toward a suitable resolution.

Best regards,
HERNEST

Fantastic product for the price! Speedy shipping

I was a little worried after seeing other reviews about misaligned joints or poor quality, but this arrived pre-assembled, working smoothly, with not much chemical smell. I wiped it down with a Clorox wipe and set a heavy planter on it right away and it's doing wonderfully - so nice to have a table made of solid wood and not some type of particle board!

Shipping issues

We ordered two chairs to see how they would work with our table. Unfortunately, when the shipment arrived the box was taped up incorrectly and the side of the box showed evidence of being dropped. The tops of the chairs have damage and one of the legs is bent. We are contacting you tomorrow to see what can be done. We love the chairs but we want them to be in good condition.

We’re sorry that the chairs arrived with damaged tops and a bent leg. We understand how important it is for your furniture to arrive in excellent condition, and this is not the experience we want you to have with HERNEST.

Our team has reached out to you by email to review the situation and coordinate a suitable resolution. We appreciate your patience and the opportunity to assist you in getting this resolved.

Best regards,
