Leather on Janda lounge and frame are crap!
Complaint Rating:  70 % with 10 votes
We bought an expensive black leather lounge a 2 seater and 3 seater from harvey norman cairns it was a janda lounge, after 3 years the leather cracked and the frame broke, they sent an inspector out that said the blame was 50 /50, we have cared for the lounge as recommended since purchase, they offered to repair it if we sent it back to brisbane 2000 klms away at our expense, they can go jump, never ever buy janda rubbish again, we should have bought a cheaper, it would have lasted better than janda! Janda is crap !

Another update, janda for the 1st time actually contacted me, only because of my comments on here, they had no clue whatsover how we were 50/50 liable for their leather cracking, if we neglected it it would be all over, but its on 2 cushions and some other little bits,the inspector apparently never told them their lousy frame also broke, they still refuse to replace their rubbish furniture and still want me to pay transport for a 4000 klm trip, be warned they sell rubbish and then hide behind dodgy inspectors reports!

Hi, i am just about to place an order for a red leather janda suite, very expensive from HARVEY NORMAN and now i am worried about the quality etc. Could it be a one of? What was the outcome of your complaint? A lounge suite should last for years, i may hold on and rethink about leather in general. Let me know the latest will check in.

The leather on both suites was completly different, one soft thats was the worst one, they have not fixed the lounge and wont if i dont ship it at my expense 2000 klm, i paid over 5000 for it it should last years, i would never buy yheir rubbish again!

JANDA - FURNITURE SERVICE & PRODUCTS INCOPRATION WITH HARVEY NORMAN... NOT EVER AGAIN

My husband & I bought a Janda lounge suite through Harvey Norman Carindale in Brisbane about 3 1/2 years ago. . We now live in Hervey Bay which is 3 and half hours away. I have spoken with Harvey Norman and Janda and yes I agree they do not take responsibility for bad quality furniture. We have spent $1000's with Harvey Norman and can say we are totally disguisted.. NEVER AGAIN>> It has cracked and literally peels of.. Had specialist look at it and he said it BICAST Leather and not real genuine leather... So I am just about to go back to them again as we were under the impression paying 1000's for it that it was genuine leather...

NEVER EVER BUY JANDA I am 9 months from when i first contacted them and they just dumped me after the last sook cried when i told her how their product cracked BE WARNED

I will not deal with Harvey Norman because they tell you one thing and when it is time to sign on the dotted line then they telll you the extras, i.e. fabric protection, delivery. They try to make out they are giving you the best deal ( a better price than even the discounted one) Bull, the "better price" was already on the tag. Thats when I walked out and unfortunately will not go back in again. I would also like to know where on the internet that you can submit a complaint except to the furniture shop, who really don't care, as it is their way of training.

Colin,

Thank you for posting your experience you have encountered with Harvey Norman (Australia). I was seriously considering spending $6500 (NZ dollars) on a Janda - Orange lounge suite.

When spending a large amount of money on furniture, one asks questions (as I did with the Salesperson) expecting honesty and professionalism.

I will now look at New Zealand made product and NZ made furniture.

Agasin, thank you for the insight.

Regards,

Jody from NZ
