The company's reputation is mixed, with notable strengths in product quality and delivery efficiency, as many customers express satisfaction with their purchases and the overall aesthetic appeal of items. However, significant concerns arise regarding customer service, particularly in handling issues related to delivery options, billing disputes, and product defects. Customers frequently report difficulties in reaching support and receiving timely resolutions, leading to frustration. While some patrons appreciate the extensive product selection and smooth purchasing experience, the inconsistency in service responsiveness and problem resolution highlights areas for improvement in their customer service approach.

First time experience with Houzz and it went well for the most part. It was a fairly large order (nine items). I had ordered six chairs and only four arrived. I didn't get any communication that the last two would come separately and did not get a response when I asked if they would be coming later. I also returned an item and the communication with the vendor was not great: they committed to responding on a shipping label within a specified timeframe. When I did not hear back within that timeframe I got a bit of a snarky response.
We've made several purchases from Houzz and I don't have but the highest praise on their business practices. The products looks like the what's online and if we had any issues, it was corrected promptly.
Thank you for your wonderful service
Great quality! Fits right into my space and delivered within reasonable time.
Very well packaged and fast delivery. Quality is good for everything I have ordered so far. The only thing I can say that I live in a condo and it would be helpful if they did not just leave the order by front gate but actually would bring it up to the unit. These are very heavy items.
You have great products and great prices. I always find something I need from Houzz.
I was shopping for an outdoor covered patio table and stumbled across this one on Houzz. Although it did not have a great many reviews, I decided to purchase it anyways, as I really was not loving anything else. The service was excellent. This table was particularly heavy but the delivery was seamless. The table itself was of excellent quality and exactly as pictured in the photos.
This wallpaper is the best you could ever get! The wonderful thing about it is you can stick it on the wall and if you make a mistake you can pull it off and put it back on... Over, and over and over! If you rent a place and they don't want you to paint... You can use this wallpaper to please your taste, and tear it down when you leave! Leave! It's extremely simple to apply to a wall. I'm 76 years old and did an entire room by myself. Christian
Timely delivery, great products and support staff. The web site is great for new ideas and design trends.
Product and pricing was best I could find
Great resource for hard to find items
THE PAINT WAS CHIPPED ON FRAME AND LOOKED AWFUL. I REVIEWED YOUR RTURN POLICY THAT REQUIRED AS TO REPACKAGE AND SHIP IT BACK. WE ARE 76 AND 81 YEARS OLD WITH HEALTH PROBLEMS AND NOT ABLE TO COMPLY. I PLAN TO CALL LOCAL CHARITY TO SEE IF THEY WILL TAKE IT TO USE/RESELL FOR THEIR SOCIAL WORK. LAST TIME I BUY FROM HOUZZ
So easy to order on line. The color photos were very true.
Very easy and got what I was looking for.
Yes Everyone, this is a Good website 👍 I got what I wanted hassle free and good quality products and fast shipping & delivery 🚚.
This item was shipped promptly and looks great on the wall in our office. We were able to display our American Flyer train set, Lionel engine and coal car, and a Lionel engine. Looks great.
Site makes it easy to isolate the product you are looking for and provides a lot of options. The pricing is fair and provides a large range in which to choose
Came unassembled, which is fine because it made it so there was no damage to the product. Weighted bars for the floor pieces so it's very stable. Overall, quite pleased.
The website is easy to use, and very fast shipping. The faux flowers are beautiful and lifelike.
The product was exactly as displayed and described on the website and the packaging, shipping and handling was excellent. Houzz has an excellent website and I subscribe to their informative Emails.
Great product and shipped promptly. The stool is well made.
The customer service at Houzz is fantastic! I have had only good experience with this company, so when I found these lovely polished nickel robe hooks, I didn't hesitate to purchase them!
Answer: Good question Maggie. I don't think there is. I think this site is just there to help their vendor and not assist consumers in making informed decisions. I found had a contractor who had defrauded us and changed his business name on Houzz. I posted a review on his profile notifying the public of what he had done to us, and Houzz did not publish the review. I joined Sitejabber to warn the public about Houzz.
Answer: I began as a Pro on Houzz and spent $2000 on Advertising. This was supposedly for a year of top exposure. No one purchased, the couple of calls I received were people wanting to USE my service for ideas. I have since discontinued complimentary initial appointments. These people are the biggest scammers in the world! I'm still one of the Pros just to see if anything bites but I noticed they go into vendors photos and try to find similar product then they sell their products. Great way to sway your client and to steal customers!
Answer: Go straight to the top at Houzz. Ms. Adi Tatarko, CEO, Alon Cohen, Pres. If tha doesn't work, I suggest you file complaint with the Consumer Affairs Division of the California Attorney General's Office.
Answer: The Pros, at least at the beginning, were not in competition with this company (Houzz). They convinced the "Designer" world that the were strictly collecting ideas for the public and to help improve the vendors chances of being hired. Those reviews on the Pros are about the Pros, they come from their clients. About 2-3 years ago, Houzz began selling out from under all the vendors! They are SO low they have gone into the photos of the pros, look for a product they have that might be similar to something they sell and lead them away from the pro. The 1-2 stars you see here are the reviews for "Houzz" and their service but the reviews under a Pro are for that Pro. Don't be fooled... If you want the job done right, call the Pro! Listen to these reviews of Houzz and you won't get burned. Two different animals completely!
Answer: Steer clear. The advertising doesn't work, and although they originally started up as a company that would work alongside the vendors, they are now selling out from under most of them, especially the interiors decorators! They are SO low they have actually tagged products inside some of the photos of interior designers and tabbed out similar products to stay the customer away from the Pro and to purchase through them directly!
Answer: Do yourself a huge favor and find it somewhere else. Houzz contracts with third party sellers and their freight companies, they're just a middle man. What a nightmare this has been.
