Pepperfry Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company reflects significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from poor product quality and inadequate customer service. Common concerns include extensive delivery delays, unresolved complaints regarding defective items, and a lack of responsiveness from support teams. Customers frequently report frustrating experiences with returns and refunds, often feeling ignored after multiple follow-ups. While a few positive comments regarding product variety exist, they are overshadowed by the prevailing sentiment of frustration and disappointment. This suggests an urgent need for the company to enhance its service protocols and improve product quality to regain customer trust.

Completely disappointed
December 8, 2020

I ordered a sideboard worth ******* on sept 23. After a lot of reminders I got the delivery around 6th Nov. The product that was delivered was horrible. It was supposed to be an industrial finish one but was barely colored, it had termite holes fixed with a fixture, the door had cracks. And was broken. I had a lot of patience as the delivery was late but was very excited as I had liked the product on the website, but this was a complete disappointment. Finally they simply refunded me. But I dearly wanted the product and not the refund. The product was from Bohemiana. This vendor is horrible as they were forcing us to keep the product and was not giving any replacement even if we had not accepted their damaged delivery... total disappointment. I have got a lot of products from Pepperfry and they were simply good, on time delivery, good quality. But this particular vendor Bohemiana shows good product images online but are terrible at delivering it.

Damaged products delivered - Order was of INR. 41,000/- When i called the customer service team, the team was reluctant to take back the product, Customer service sucks big time, they will shamelessly tell you that they will repair the damaged product and give you the same product for the same price. If a customer has to buy refurbished product, they can buy from OLX, why would they pay the inflated price at Pepperfry? Customer service representatives are rude, unhelpful and also lie so please RECORD ALL YOUR CLLS WITH THEM without fail or else they will tell you all lies. Also, their ticketing system is very opaque, you will get a ticket number in an email after you speak to them, but they will never mention the exact issue that you have faced in that Ticket. When you challenge them for it, they say it is an internal policy that such details are not to be shared with the customers. Now think, what kind of a person will not like to document the details of a customer issue? Let me answer, the kind of person who does not want to leave any proof of the customer's complaint and have deniability in case something goes massively wrong. The product finish is not good at all in addition to the damages. They very smartly use fillers to cover up cracks in the wood. The chair which I received had balancing issues. After many heated calls, they have finally agreed to process refunds. Will uninstall this application from my mobile the day i receive the refunds. Horrible experience.

Very bad experience
December 1, 2020

I had my worst experience with peppery product and it's customer care service, executive name is Jeffy. Carpenter without seeing the product concluded that the product has been mishandled whereas anybody can see the photographs and say it's a manufacturing defect. I will never suggest anyone to buy products from pepperfry.

Avoid this place. Their support is bad. They deal with manufacturers who provide low quality products and do not take accountability if the product get damaged.

Poor Quality of Product
November 12, 2020

Ordered Herp Executive Chair for 11K odd. The Pros are:

1. Received the chair well before promised delivery date.
2. Chair "looks": exactly as given in the website.

It may be my fault or misleading advertisement, that I got a poor quality product.
1. There is absolutely no manual or instruction to assemble the chair. Not that it is too difficult to assemble, but still it shows absolute lack of professionalism. This is not a toy set and should have come with assembly instructions.
2. The picture showed as if it has a metallic base, but it is made up of very cheap plastic. I'm not sure how long will this work. If the base breaks (which is often the case with most executive chairs), the chair is completely useless. All the money I spent on now hinges on this good-for-nothing plastic base.
3. Whatever glittered as metal in the picture is all plastic. The cladding around the handle which I thought is a chrome plated metal is very cheap plastic. China made toys could have had better plastic. My 5 year old can remove the cladding just with his nail. Also, the base of the handle is of very cheap plastic. Even if plastic is used, it could have been of better quality. I assure you that this is the worse kind of plastic that could have been used on a 11K+ chair.

Overall, I'm thoroughly disappointed with the quality of the product. I will never ever visit pepperfry (or for that matter, any online furniture store, for I got the raw end of the deal) or will buy any product from them.

Poor quality bunk bed
November 7, 2020

I have ordered bunk bed with storage and trudle for my kids and it was broke in 7 days. It is so unsafe to buy products from pepperfry. My bunk bed costs 34k and they have used lower quality. Customer care is supportive and ready to pick up product with full refund but what about safety of kids.
I highly not recommend for pepperfry products. They sell products with name of MDF bit all parts are not MDF. Its better to go to carpenter to make customized bed.

I opened one of the bedsheets to check and I can see that the stitching on one side is completely removed.
They are not allowing me to return it since I had raised a request regarding quality issues which according to them is not a legit reason to return an item. They closed the return window and not even acknowledging the mail.

Pepperfry makes it extremely hard to return the damaged products. Their app would crash every single time if you try to make a return request. They do not answer to calls or emails. Basically they do not return products once delivered. So do not shop from pepperfry.

No after sale service
October 23, 2020

Very bad experience. Got mold and fungus on wardrobe. They shrugged off saying it is not under warranty. Even geyser people give after warranty service by charges. These people just shrugged off. We expected at least some sort of advice on varnish or home remedy. Even that they are not providing.

I got a trundle bed from pepperfry last month and it broke with pressure of 5 year old due to its poor quality. I was given bed with cardboard which could not hold a 35 kg weight. They said its covered under warranty but uts a LIE. They dont even help to get the issue fixed. Bunch of crooks and cheats. Please go with Amazon or Flipkart. Stay away from these fraud people.

My daughter and me happened to visit the Pepperfry Studio (opp Phoenix Mills, Lower Parel, Mumbai) for a first-hand look at some of the furniture items available for a work-from-home use... there was no one available to attend to us... there was a group of five huddled around a table and watching a TV screen... none of them bothered to ask what we were there for... after 10 agonising minutes wait, I went to ask them can we be helped? A lady made a sign - wait for 5 minutes... after another 10 mins, we decided to just walk-off... and none of the staff present, even bothered to come and ask us why we were there... of all of them, guard at the door was the most active with a hand-temp check and indicating that we wait for some more time... this will be my first and last visit to Pepperfry... lousy people and lousier service... came home and decided to buy from Godrej Interio... I am sure will mean more to Pepperfry than the ₹ 40k of purchase I made not from them!

I have ordered a product of 2 quantity and the product quality is worst.it is having termites infestation. I have raise a request to return both the quantity as it comes under same order but they refused to take it. And the discussion is stll going on from past 10 days.the customer service people are of no use. They dont listen to customer. Customers call will be kept on hold and will get auto cut.no response over phone call. They will just drop an email as formality but will not repky to customers email.the post sale service of company is worst. I suggest no one should buy from these cheap company.its waste of hard earned money, time and effort. I feel urban ladder is much better than pepperfry. Pepperfry is cheater.
