Sleepy's Basic Box Spring
PoetSteve April 20, 2009
I bought a box spring and frame from Sleepy's in Vails Gate, NY and less than 3 months later the thing collapsed under normal use. It is clearly defective with a bulge sticking out the bottom from a weak supporting rail. They sent out their representative who took pictures and they said the manufacturer's report showed no defect and that there was a stain on the box spring anyway so they could not exchange it. There was no stain. They are lying. The product is clearly defective and they refuse to stand behind their product. I wa... read full review »

Tim Tattersall April 19, 2009
I had (6) windows put in by Champion windows of Omaha nebrasaka 3 years ago and have had nothing but problems with them leaking air. The sevice techs have come out numerous times and tried all kinds of band-aid fixes that never work and have finally told me there is nothing more they can do to fix them. Their sales pitch is "we make the windows we install the windows and we stand behind the windows" their warranty states life-time warranty for as long as you own the home. I finally filed a claim with the BBB of Omaha ne, on my first... read full review »

Just My Shopping/Monarch Armoire
Linda Fletcher April 19, 2009
We ordered an Monarch Armoire on 1/7/09. It arrived on 1/16/09. When it arrived the top was broken. We have emailed customer service I don't know how many times about it. Finally on March 6, 2009 they said we would get a 10% refund check in 14 business days. Today is April 19, 2009 and we still have not received our refund. As you can see in the pictures how it was damaged. (It was both top sides of the unit.) This information was documented by the carrier that delivered the armoire. My next step is to get my lawyer involved with... read full review »

I ordered 4 barstools with fabric seating and 6 matching chairs. I received the barstools minus the fabric seating (got wood seating). Called the company and they asked for us to fax the lading slip that we signed. In fact, we did not sign it and it was not presented for signature. At that point, they said that we were correct and they would send the chairs and the fabric seats for the barstools. This is six weeks later and despite over twenty telephone calls and assurances that they would send the rest of our order, they have not done... read full review »

In November, 2007 I paid over 3, 000.00 for a Living Group from Garnder White by June, 2008 the cushions begin to desegregate with little or no use of this furniture. I called the Warren store, And I told sorry there nothing they could or would do about it. I am now forced to purchase form cushions from other sources. BEST ADVISE TO NOT SHOP GARNDER-WHITE. read full review »

In Sept of 2006, we legally contracted with Costa Rica Limited to purchase a home in Esterillos, Costa Rica. We made 3 payments totalling approximately $94, 000 before the house was started per the contract. Our home construction was to begin in January 2007, then July 2007. Costa Rica Limited never built our home due to issues with the lot size, ie. they promised us a home that would not fit on the lot we purchased. The owners promised our money refunded. They have sold our lot to another person and have built a house on it. We have not... read full review »

Bucks County Roofing
brd128 April 17, 2009
DO NOT USE THIS ROOFER!!! This company is unethical and unprofessional!! We were charged over $3000 for a new roof for our house in 2003, and our roof has still been leaking periodically for the past 6 years!! As of today, one of the ceilings collapsed in the house due to the shoddy job on the roof!! When we called and asked for them to come out (we have a warranty-little good has that done), they merely stated that they were too busy! Being that their reputation depends on their service, you would think they would make this a priority... read full review »

On October 15, I allowed a Direct Energy sales agent by the name of Andrew Atkinson into my home to discuss Direct Energy’s Electricity Price Protection Plan. Mr. Atkinson was pleasant, polite, and seemed quite informed when he answered my many questions. I was hesitant to change from our utility, however, agreed to the contract in good faith believing that the fixed price would hedge our exposure to higher prices.

Ms. WIGGINS April 17, 2009
My gate was damaged by a Teco employee. I have a 6 foot privacy gate surrounding my home. It has lock on the door of the gate and the only way to gain entry inside my gate is to either cut this lock to open the gate, use the key to remove the lock to open the gate or to just jump the fence entirely. Well needless to say they chose to jump the fence I am assuming as now mt gas is turned on the the gate is now broken. How else would they have been able to turn on the service without getting inside the fence to do this. This would have been much... read full review »

What a nightmare! I gave Pacific Home Remodeling my name and number to receive some further product information, while at a show. For months I have received phone calls.

Both liens are bogus and my attorney said it'll cost thousands to remove. Apparently Arturo knows this so he did it fraudulently. DO NOT... read full review »

I’ve not only had a very bad experience but an expensive one with Coker Flooring Co (since 1946). I spent $10, 000 on real hardwood flooring just 4 years ago from the location in Rockwall, Tx.
