American Furniture Warehouse [AFW]
reviews and complaints

We have a total of 10,000.00 of furniture we purchased from American Furniture.. WE had a bad apple on the bar stools we picked for our new home. The wood it is made of is ply wood and the bottom are real heavy and By a fall on a carpet it popped the top off? WE paid 150.00 per stool as a matter of fact we dont even have them paid off yet. I contacted them they sent me a kid that took pictures and told us customer service would help us.. After talking to one and put though another which she said she was director of service blow my mond because all i got was a sarcasite piece of work with a high pitch voice whom name was Leveng , She was the most unconcern person i have ever had to talk to in all my life.. What happen to standing behind your product and making sure the customer was and is highly satisfied! She basically told me i was SOL and she did not have time for me... This person should not me in a position like this... I will keep sending my problem to as many people as i can until i get solved.. He has no right to sell a cheap piece of wood and not stand by his product i dont know whats worse the girl Leveng or the stool they both rate about the same wood... Very Unsatisfied Customer

I purchased a bookcase from American Furniture Warehouse at I-25 & Filmore in Colorado Springs and assumed it came in a box and would require some assembly. When it arrived, it was fully assembled and I said I couldn't fit it in my van. They proceeded to jam it in sideways while I was talking to the shipping clerk. No mention was made that I could have it delivered.

When I got it home, I had considerable difficulty getting it out of the van and up the flight of stairs to my office. I'm 68 and live at 7000 feet. When I unwrapped it, I found a large damaged area in the back of the paneling and that many of the holes for the adjustable shelves had not been drilled. I called AFW several times to no avail except me getting the unit back in my van and taking it back to AFW.

Finally the consumer service clerk said my resources were at an end as I had been "black balled" by AFW because of our many complaints. It developed that several years ago my wife asked for missing shelf supports to be mailed to her. They never were, I found some extra ones in another bookcase. But AFW registered us as chronic complainers and now "we are not welcome to shop there".

American Furniture Warehouse at Fillmore and I-25

We purchased a sectional and ottomans from American Furniture Warehouse and dealt with a foreign woman at the register. She did not tell us that the delivery window is set by the delivery dept. and is entirely inflexible. I explained that my husband works nights and would be home at 9 am on a particular day.. She agreeably set our delivery up and when I called re. the delivery window, they said it was 8am to 10:30 am. I explained the conflict and asked for either an afternoon window or to have delivery in the latter part of the stated window. They wouldn’t budge. After going back and forth, the man asked if I wanted to cancel my order and I chose to do so. I called the next day to assure that the purchase had been taken off my VISA. He said yes, all but the cancellation fee. I talked with his supervisor and although the employees don’t appear to understand the policy, he too, was entirely inflexible.
