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.

Best online sales
January 11, 2020

Zulily is the best online shopping application where you can get name brands best sales so far, have been shopping with zulily for almost two years, and have also recommended it to friends who ask where I shop, but I think they should improve more on given customers coupon for the end of the year (Appreciation). Added photos of recent purchase.

Christmas shopping
January 11, 2020

Ordering Christmas ornaments from Zulily was not a good experience for me this year. I will think twice next year about ordering them. Two out of three were wrong!

Good
January 11, 2020

I get some good values on Zilily, sometimes it takes a few days but it's usually worth the wait. I do love the free shipping after I place an order.

I probably spend around $1000/year on Zulily. I have definitely received quite a few items I was happy with over the years, but it's about 50/50 and a lot of it just goes in the garbage. A lot of things show up looking nothing like the picture. They used to have a great return policy, but the last time I tried to return something, I got a note that said they were taking around $10 out of the amount I'd get back for shipping charges. I paid for shipping on the way here, would be paying for it on the way back and they were asking me to pay a third shipping charge. Ridiculous! I just tossed the item, which is probably what they were hoping. I used to order with confidence but have cut back significantly as I know it's a major gamble. The website's algorithms are terrible. Search function lacks capability.

Shopper friendly!
January 11, 2020

I really like Zulily. They have several vendors that I like and their return policy works very well for me when I need it. Zulily is very responsive to their shopper's needs.

Great for shop-a-holics!
January 11, 2020

Love the variety of items featured! There are recognizable brands, as well as some new ones I'd never heard of but discovered thanks to Zulily. While there are some aspects that could use work (cost of shipping, the time it takes to receive items, refund policy on certain items, quality of items), all of these aspects are not hidden and so the consumer knows what they are getting themselves into when choosing to purchase through Zulily. I find that Zulily has been fair when items are no longer available or will not ship when expected, and they do their best to make customers happy when issues arise. I'm a long-time customer and the fact that I continue to shop via Zulily is a testament to their customer service.

Great variety
January 11, 2020

The only thing stopping a 5 star review is inconsistency in clothing sizing. Quality is great, just need to know how to size each label and when in doubt size up.

Awesome shopping
January 11, 2020

Great variety of products and I love the uniqueness of the different vendors. Plus there's great variety of old standbys like coach. The only drawback is shipping is slow. Amazon has spoiled customers with super fast shipping and our expectations are high.

Return policy sucks!
January 7, 2020

First time ordering. 4 out of the 5 items were ok. One item was much too large and also had a front pocket on sweatshirt sewn on crooked! I opted to return it. Only to get a USPS label that they want to charge me nearly $9 for. Excuse me? I'm pretty sure if I had went to my local post office, it would not have been $9! What a rip off, especially for something that was a mfg defect, the item was NLA on their site. It's like they are making money off you for shipping, TWICE!
