Zulily Reviews Summary

Zulily's reputation reflects a significant decline in customer satisfaction, with many long-term shoppers expressing disappointment in product quality and customer service. While some appreciate the variety of offerings, a prevalent concern is the inconsistency in product quality, often described as low and poorly represented online. Customers frequently report frustrations with shipping delays, cumbersome return policies, and inadequate customer support. The shift in management appears to have exacerbated these issues, leading to a general sentiment of disillusionment among previously loyal customers, urging the company to reassess its operational practices to regain trust.

I am a customer of Zulilly since they started! There were always some items that were worse quality than others but i liked the selection of brands & unique items so i kept purchasing. However, past year quality has REALLY deteriorated. I've had to send back more than 1/2 of the items i order at a time because of fit or quality issues. And appliances must be 2nds because i always have a problem. Paying 8.95 every time i have to return is not worth it. I can find much better quality at TJ Maxx & Marshalls. Sorry zulilly - but i think this long time customer has had enough of the CHEAPO merchandise.

Love this shopping
January 11, 2020

I can find anything and everything on Zulily no matter when I log on. Something for myself and for
The house and my grandchildren. I also love that it is now part of QVC which I have been shopping with for
Over 20 years now. Between both sites I find anything I need. Please keep up the good work and keep bringing
Us your fantastic items.

Zulily Products
January 11, 2020

I love most everything I buy. I am still learning how to compensate for the size adjustments. I wish you could get a little more acquainted with U.S. sizes. That would help a lot!

MY LOVE for Zulily
January 11, 2020

My "LOVE AFFAIR" with Zulily began with my granddaughter when she was 3 years of age! EVERYONE, and I do mean "EVERYONE" would inquire at church, school, and the community where her beautiful clothes were purchased! She is now 13, and during the years I began LOVING Zulily's clothes for myself! The quality, cost, and customer service is "EXEMPLARY!" I gave ZUlily 4 stars because their vendors take too long to ship out merchandise! Really, that's NOT their fault, so I AM GIVING Zulily 5 STARS because they REALLY DESERVE THEM!

Great site to shop
January 11, 2020

All in all I have been very satisfied with the variety of shops I can access at Zulily. There have been occasions where I found certain stores wanting in quality but I simply don't purchase any further items from them. The service I have received in checking or returning items has been exemplary.

I love the variety of available items on Zulily. I can buy everything from cleaning supplies, office and school supplies, kitchen and laundry to my wardrobe. That said, you have to have patience awaiting your purchases. Some can take weeks before they arrive. In general I'm happy with the quality of my purchases and have had to send very few items back. That's another draw back as well. You get Zulily credit upon a return, not a refund. I will definitely continue to use Zulily as one of my main apps to buy online.

As the grandmother of twelve, I cannot stress how much I enjoy Zulily! I don't "do" malls, so this is my go-to site for virtually everything. On the slim chance that something is not quite right, or if I make a mistake when ordering, the Zulily staff is fabulous about making things right.
Almost everything I have ordered is high quality, matches the description, is well-priced and arrives on time. For years I have been a cheerleader for this site.

I have been with Zulily a while. Their advertisements of their goods on the site make the item appealing but when you receive them they are cheap and made in China. The sizes are totally off, and they send you sizes you did not ask for. One out of ten items are legit and good for the price. But overall I think I will end this live hate relationship with Zulily at this point. They better change some things because online shopping is the future. And it is very frustrating to get a bunch of goods you a not use and have to keep sending back. Just order these boots and they are suppose to be a 11 wide boots. NOT

I love Zulily
January 11, 2020

I love Zulily. With so many items (from clothes to housewares to health and beauty) there is something for everyone. There have been occasions when an item I ordered wasn't quite what I expected or there were problems with the quality but all in all I have been very happy The only other issue I would have is the length of time it takes for most deliveries. I do have favorite brands that I know I can trust for quality items.

Great on line shopping!
January 11, 2020

Zulily has great prices on new styles. Affordable for ladies of all ages and economic classes. The only negative I've experienced is sometimes you have to wait a really long time to receive your items And sometimes they replace what you ordered with a very similar item, but not what you ordered. Those 2 things definitely need improved. Otherwise they are GREAT!

Some good shopping!
January 11, 2020

I would highly recommend zulily. I have bought quite a few Items with only 1 item that had to be sent back. Wrong item was sent. I had no problem returning the item and a quick refund was issued. The only thing I wish is that shipping would be a little faster.

What I think of Zulily
January 11, 2020

I love the products. Great quality. Excellent prices. If an item has a problem the company lets you return the item. The company has a variety of products and I am happy with the company.

Some of the products are of poor quality. Delivery time is too much. Some products measures are wrong and it is a problem to return them, however an other products are so good quality and price.

Too many times are the size charts for clothing inaccurate; then it costs too much to return the item! Have lost some major bucks by refusing to pay for return postage, 'restocking fee' (?), and partial refund of item. Other online retailers WAY better.

Zulily has great customer service. If you have an issue with an item they will solve the problem. I do have issues sometimes with the product, especially clothing. What you get a lot of the time is not like the picture on the website not to mention the size being one or two sizes to bit or small. What I would like to see is spilt monthly payments. Also shipping is a little over priced.

Zulily must by misfits most if not all the sizes are inaccurate. It's not wonder they have a no refund policy. ZULILY was fun at first but now not so much. Everything I have ordered lately is a problem. Either the item doesn't fit or an inaccurate description or the reviews don't match the item. Terrible!

Spend too much money!
January 11, 2020

I do at least glance through everything daily, and I do end up buying things I would never have gone out of my way to look for. I have learned some brands or topics to totally avoid. I see things that are perfect to save for a specific someone as a gift. However, the return policies have gotten much worse. I used to get a refund without having to return something that was not what it promised to be. In particular, clothes they say are 90% cotton often have no cotton at all. I wish they would say what country imported from, not just "imported," that often makes a difference to me, so I just don't buy.
