Better Homes And Gardens Shower caddy

Bought a Better Homes and Gardens' Chrome Shower Caddy and it did not fit the bathtub. I used the poles that were supposed to be used for the measured length of the bathtub to the ceiling but it was too long. All the poles were the same size so I had to buy a pole cutter and cut down the pole to the correct size. It was costly and time consuming and should not have been necessary. This is the second and last thing that I will ever buy from Better Homes and Gardens... I don't even want their magazine. Both this caddy and their sheets are garbage.

Desired outcome: would like my $20 back for the pole cutter and $40 back for the cost of the caddy to cover my gas, time and work.

I purchased a set of Queen Hydrocotton sheets and 2 extra pillow cases about 2 weeks ago. I washed them before I used them on my queen mattresses and no issue. I washed them a second time and tried to put them on the same bed that they just came off of but they had shrunk...all of it, the fitted sheet, the top sheet and the pillow cases. These sheets were not cheap in price but clearly cheap in workmanship and materials. WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER BETTER HOMES AND GARDENS' PRODUCT AND WILL BE LETTING EVERYONE I KNOW NOT TO EITHER OR BEWARE.

Better Homes And Gardens Better Homes & Gardens Colebrook 37-Inch Gas Fire Pit

Bought the fire pit in October 2021 online at Walmart.com. After going through 3 propane tanks, the burner broke in half (see attached pic). Walmart website description says it has manufacturer's warranty: 10 years burner, 4 years flames, 3 year limited warranty. Tried to contact Walmart and Better Homes and Gardens over the phone many times. Aways been directed from one to another, no one able to advise how to obtain the manufacturer's warranty, apparently there is none. BHG not responding to emails.

Desired outcome: Refund, fix the broken item, remove misleading listings from sellers websites.

Better Homes And Gardens 3 wick candles

9/9/22

I was burning candle on my head board of my bed as I lay in bed. After several I heard a loud pop. The glass of the candle had exploded, send chunks of glass and small shards of glass flying - luckily it exploded in the opposite direction of me. Candle continued to burn. Again, luckily I was right there to extinguish the candle before more damage was done. Unsafe candles.

Desired outcome: Refund. Candles made better so this doesn't happen to anyone else. Could be very dangerous.

Better Homes And Gardens Better Homes and Gardens Bankston dining table

July 27, 2022

I ordered the Better Homes and Gardens Bankston dining table from Walmart.com and one of the legs is cracked from the top. I need a replacement leg instead of returning the whole set. I tried to ask for a replacement part on the Walmart app but there was no option for that. Just a return and refund. I bought the table and chairs as a bundle so if I return the entire table, I won’t get the same price if I repurchase separately

Desired outcome: A new table leg sent.

Better Homes And Gardens Latest issue

I received this issue free with a subscription offer. I occasionally subscribe for my office customers to read however, I will not be subscribing again. I was shocked and

disappointed with this Harry Syles issue. I can not have a magazine sitting in my office with a

celebrity in his underwear talking about his sex

life. People pick up Better Homes to see pretty

gardens, beautiful homes and great recipes. You

really missed your demographic here! Very sad.

Better Homes And Gardens King size comforter

When I washed my bedding it came apart in Washer and burnt in dryer. For a set that cost $74.00 before taxes that seems like I bought a cheap set and I loved it, was so comfy. Before it messed up in wash. I’ve only had this set a couple weeks. When I pay a higher cost in a product I expect it to last longer then that.

Desired outcome: Refund money

Better Homes And Gardens Ventura stationary egg chair

Was given this as a gift and do not know where it was purchased. When we opened the box, the hardware to put it together was missing. My wife went to our local Walmart and was told to call customer service. When I did that, they would not help because I did not have verification of it purchased online such as an order number. All I want is the hardware to put together but Walmart doesn't want to help me but they treated me like I wanted to cheat their company out of thousands of dollars. I just want some bolts which we offered to pay for.

Desired outcome: Just want the hardware to put it together and be able to use.

Purchased in 2019 from Walmart. It is "Brookbury" from BH and Garden

The "wicker" is brittle and breaks off of the entire sofa. This is absolute junk. Not certain it wasn't aged when received.

We have kept it covered when not in use.

Desired outcome: I would like to be reimbursed.

Better Homes And Gardens Sheets

I always purchase sheets from your company. I went to Walmart and purchased queen size sheets. Once I purchased the sheets and got them home. I wanted to wash them putting them on my bed. I opened the package but did not inspect every inch of the set. After washing and drying. I was putting the sheet set on the bed when I noticed the pillowcase has a long open stich down the middle of it. Since the package was opened and washed, I could not return it to Walmart. This is why I am making a complaint

Desired outcome: I would like a brand new set.

Better Homes And Gardens Elegant Style Oversized luxury throw

In 2020 I purchased this throw in purple. I have absolutely adored it and use it all the time. I was anxiously looking forward to the new throws coming out in 2021. I ended up purchasing the blue floral one that I thought was beautiful. Imagine my disappointment when I got it home and found out it was nowhere near as thick was the purple one that I already had. I had thrown away receipt and taken tag off blanket or I would have returned it immediately. I should have checked it more closely before purchasing it. It is not anywhere as warm as prior one, definitely not as thick. Obviously I am stuck with a blanket that is not warm, not as heavy as I wanted, and am very, very disappointed.

Desired outcome: Would like to get another purple one as that one is wonderful in all aspects but cannot find one anywhere in the Walmart system.

Desired outcome: some type of refund

Better Homes And Gardens Dresser

Today I went into Walmart and decided I would purchase a dresser. After looking at the dressers on display decided to buy a Rustic dresser from BH&G. When my husband and I removed the items from the box we noticed chips on one board. I did want to return it back to the store but we keep it and set it up just because it would a mess trying to put everything back. It's a nice sturdy dresser and color is great for the room we put it in. I am disappointed with chips and hope this doesn't happen to someone else's purchase from Better Home and Garden.

Desired outcome: Whatever Better Home and Gardens would warrant from damaged furniture.
