Id also like to point to that temporary means lasting for a short time , not damaged on the day of delivery The picture online of the furniture I paid for did not have damage to it or unfinished wood spotsI paid for furniture in new condition, so even if they had told me it was temporary before purchase (which they didn't), I still would have expected new furniture on October I did go into Cohen with the model # written down from online I also had coupons from their websiteI asked the sales lady for the price and then presented the coupons (one for $off $500; one for $off $1000) I bought a dining room set and a bedroom set, so I don't see why I couldn't use both coupons, one for each The lady said oh I already gave you a discount in the price I told you I did question why the coupons couldn't come off of her quoted price I did not cause a scene I said I could buy the furniture else whereA male came over I don't know his name He argued that I should've presented the coupon first He said he'd take $off the price, but not $ I accepted The sales lady told him, sorry I quoted the lowest price before I realized she had a coupon I won't do that again Although I don't know what the coupons on the date of purchase have to do with the damaged furniture I received and have been denied my right to return, but I'm trying to address what was referenced in Cohen's response I also have phone records, which I can submit if needed, showing numerous unreturned phone calls to Cohen Furniture's kirkwood location (302-996-0123) and new castle location (302-654-9916) I generally did not hear back from them in the time frames they provided, so I had to contact them, not the other way around ards,

When we considered purchasing a sofa from Cohen's Furniture, I specifically asked the manager if they would come out and measure prior to me purchasingThe manager assured me that the delivery man could get the sofa in our basement; if need be to remove the legs and armsI asked him to put that in writing on my receipt and he guaranteed itWhen the sofa was delivered, the delivery man could not fit the sofa in the house, and the manager had to send a different delivery man to do the job another dayTwo days, I am now inconveniencedWhen he came on a Friday evening at 5pm, the sofa wasn't fitting and the delivery men took not only the legs and arms off, but disassembled the entire sofa and removed the fabricWhen it was reassembled in the basement, it was damaged in several placesI called the manager to explain I was unhappy and he called me a baby and hung up on meI called his supervisor and texted him the pictures of the damages; I have sent those to the Revdex.com in my last response The supervisor said he could send someone to repair the sofa, however, the fabric was reapplied crooked, it was soiled with grease and the fabric was frayed and pulledThere was no way it could be repaired unless new fabric was reapplied on every section of the sofa(there are sections)I explained we wanted our money back and he could pick up the sofa.He insisted that a repair man was coming to fix the sofaWe argued and he explained there was a 25% restocking fee , but asked me if we wanted the sofa at a huge discountI said no, it's still damaged and that wasn't what we saw in the showroomWe agreed to pay the restocking fee if he picked up the sofa on a specific dateWe actually had to go back to the store to sign an authorization form, but they wouldn't refund my money until they picked up the sofaThe delivery man came on that date, but had no means of taking the sofa apart and leftI again called the manager and he had no idea that delivery man wasn't prepared and again he had to send someone else on a different dayThe new delivery men came days later, however they took sections of the sofa and the cushions and left the damaged sofaAgain, I had to call for them to come out a 3rd timeThe supervisor was rude this time and said I was too picky Obviously, they are uninterested in standing behind their written agreement, nor providing professional service and productsThey can not restock this item, so there should be no reason for them to collect our restocking feeI think we are entitled to receive our money back for all the inconvenience and rudeness from the managers.

11/17/2015 When Mrs. [redacted] purchased a living room set from us on 8/01/2015. Mrs. [redacted] explained to us that it may not fit through her doorway. We explained to Mrs. [redacted] that we would take the sofa apart to bring it into her home. We were very up front with Mrs. [redacted] in reference to what would have to be done to fit her sofa through her door, Mrs. [redacted] oblidged. We delivered and set up the sofa as promised. Mrs. [redacted] procedes to call us after the fact complaining that there is a scratch on the sofa and wants to return the furniture.  Mrs [redacted] was aware of our companys re-stocking fee policy. Mrs [redacted] also signed our contract (receipt) which lets our company know that she is aware of what she is buying and how Cohen Furniture accomadates customers needs.

The documented statement by ms.[redacted] is undoubtely false, as we read her statement  and linked it with her delivery recipt(which every customer has the right to justify any damages durnig delivery because we take full creditability for deliveres.)  that mentions nothing about damages...

towards the chest .Ms. [redacted] also quoted in the statement sent to Revdex.com "the headboard had dried glue on the front of it". Now to the notable Revdex.com we all have delivery recipts processed for reasons like this, when we send out her delivery she wrote that there is knicks on the corner of the headboard(what dried glue?). Ms.[redacted] is a customer of efficeny and research without a doubt as you(Revdex.com) noticed with her statement. She came to the store with the item numbers,the model, and make of the furniture she purchased. We didn't bamboozle her into the bedroom set we told her its more of a temporary line and that its ASHLEY FURNITURE signature design WHICH IS A REASON THIS MODEL WILL SOON BE DISCONTINUED IT is more or less veneers and poly top wood. she said shes aware and content with purchasing it even due to the lack of quality in her future awareness. She even mentioned that she brought  furniture from us before and asked for a better deal which we gave her than she came up with a coupon for more incentives. in Cohens we only are allowed to give one discounted deal per purchase. Being the beter retail buisness we are since 1942. the floor manger honored the 2 discounted deals for her ,inspite that she tried to make a scene in front of  the other fortunate customers at the moment. Honarable Revdex.com if that wasn't enough we even took the "WHOLE BED" back to replace it fully in her consent. We tried almost every approach with Ms. [redacted] to resolve her situations even if it meant going back to her house 3 times. Now veneer and polyeruthane are not a type of solid wood grain, we used our mohawk touch-up markers(that are usually only meant for veneers) under her supervision, only because thats the only way you can actually service veneer wood. Ms.[redacted] wasn't to thrilled about all we gave her in services she demanded a full refund and that  she was fooled even though clearly she came in with the item numbers herself(B117 X-CESS). NOW A PERSON of research like Ms.[redacted], shouldnt she have read the reviews about this bedroom online? she asked for the manager who is clearly known for our locations as [redacted]. Our store(s) manger offered her $200 credit if she keeps the furniture after serviced of another 4th time or she can come to the  store and select another bedroom set . She asked what if I returned the furniture back? [redacted] replied" mam if we go that route(again something we dont do if it was signed for after delivery) its a 25 percent restoc[redacted] fee charge on our policy number 4, as anxious as she was Ms.[redacted] decided to not reply and hang up(called her at 4:30 on 11/13/2015). notable members of the Revdex.com please take into consideration that we tried our best  to resolve Ms.[redacted]s situation even though we told her from the getco that your furniture is not on elite quality. Revdex.com we always have and will thrive for customer service and satisfaction no matter the circumstances even in Ms.[redacted]s situation. Thank You From the team staff from COHENS FURNITURE
