Subject: RE: Revdex.com Complaint Case# [redacted]...

(Ref#[redacted])
Good Day
I have been attempting to respond to this complaint online and the website is not allowing me to (see screenshot below). I have personally seen pictures of the issues and they are highly repairable. In addition Natuzzi did not sell her the furniture, [redacted] did and if a refund is to be given it is at their discretion as we are not able to force the retailer to give a refund. We are holding up to our warranty which gives us the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have offered to send a second technician to repair the issue and the consumer declined.

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 9, 2015/10/26) */
We at Natuzzi have no record of any previous claims for the piece the consumer referencing in their complaint. The out of business retailer did not file a warranty claim for the piece in question and the piece is currently out of...

Natuzzi's warranty period. We apologize for any inconvenience you may be having but we are unable to refund any funds paid to a now out of business retail location that was not part of the Natuzzi family of businesses.
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 11, 2015/10/27) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
On several occasions small claims courts have ruled that consumer product warranties are not legally binding when a product does not provide a reasonable period of use taking in consideration the price paid for the product.
To avoid registering a small claims court complaint against Natuzzi,we ask that Natuzzi to reconsider and take responsibilty for their product that does not meet the normal quality expectancy of a $3,000 sofa.

Natuzzi is in the process of reaching out to the consumer to send a technician to the home to inspect and make necessary repairs.

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 10, 2015/01/21) */
[redacted] is currently working with Natuzzi to resolve this issue. [redacted] has sent a repair company to inspect and the information from that report is being by Natuzzi to determine the best course of action. A decision will be made...

this week in which [redacted] will be able to update the consumer.
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 12, 2015/01/22) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
[redacted] sent a repairer to my house. This person doesn't speak English. He has a translator with him. He also gave me a business card but there wasn't an address on the card, just a telephone number and name of the business. After the inspection, he told me that Natuzzi had installed two different cushion types on these sofas. A softer cushion on one half and a harder one on the other half. This issue happened to both sofas. He needs to take these sofas to his shop to replace the cushion. I wonder how can this happen at Natuzzi Manufacture? How could the installer get a wrong cushion to install into the sofa at the first place. I noticed this issue when I first got this set of sofas. I am not happy with a solution where Natuzzi sent an amateur preparer to open up a leather sofas to put in a new cushion, a non-Natuzzi cushion, then sew it back. I paid premium price for the Italian made product and ended up with worst than a refurbished product. These couches are defected from the manufacture and I prefer Natuzzi to take these couches back and ship me new couches. I reported this issue after these couches (many phone call to [redacted] and it is almost a year after I received these couches and nothing much have been done to resolve this issue.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 14, 2015/01/26) */
An agreement between Natuzzi and [redacted] has been reached to donate the furniture. [redacted] will contact the consumer regarding the pick up date and reorder.
Final Consumer Response /* (2000, 16, 2015/01/28) */
(The consumer indicated he/she ACCEPTED the response from the business.)
I agree with the resolution that Natuzzi agreed to replace these defective couches. Currently, I am waiting for [redacted] to reach out to me. I don't want [redacted] to pick up these defected couches before I am receiving new couches since it takes 2 to 3 months to receive a new set and I need these couches during the waiting period.

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 12, 2016/05/13) */
The warranty states ery clearly that leather cracking and peeling is not covered by the warranty. In addition this piece would have had a one year warranty and it is our understanding that the warranty expired before the complaint was...

made to even the dealer.

Hello,
The warranty on the wooden frame is ten years. Furniture Medic who handles all manufacturer warranty issues should be able to fix this back to standards. We ask that [redacted] kindly allow this to be repaired as we...

have no concern that a repair will not hold.

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
This sofa has a frame of pressed wood and chunks actually fall out. The company doing the repairs are excellent but the only way to repair this coach is to replace the entire frame with wood. I understand that I am stuck with this but would like to warn customers about dealing with this company and sears. Little wonder Canadians are turning to US companies.

Hello,
We sent a tech out and everything was fixed or noted up to standards except for the footrest flap in which service has been approved. Natuzzi is very transparent in regards to our...

production whether it is in Romania, Italy, or China.
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 7, 2014/04/07) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
They are avoiding fixing the chair by claiming it is up to their standards. They neglect to tell consumers how low their standards are. They did send a technician to fix a flap, but he was unable to because the leather was cut crooked. They continue to refuse to stand by their product. Issues with the chair include the seat back cushion being askew, bulges and dents in the chair where there is no foam padding. They should not be allowed to get away with cheating unsuspecting consumers like this.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 10, 2014/04/09) */
At the current moment, the store, [redacted] has sent another repair company to inspect the consumers product. Natuzzi is awaiting to receive a copy of that inspection report. Natuzzi initially denied all claims on the first inspection report however they did approve correction of the footrest flap. All other complaints were found to be up to standard.

Hello,
Has [redacted] attempted to obtain the legs through the retailer as this is the way in which all dealers work. However we can look into this however we will need the ID numbers from the bottom of each piece. Finally it may be...

possible that the legs are in the sofa (under the zippered dust cover.
Initial Consumer Rebuttal /* (3000, 7, 2014/07/01) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
Hello,
Thank you for your response,I appreciate it,
I looked at the bottom of both sofas but there is just one label
ID NBR XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/009
There is no Zipper .
I contacted retailer but they say there are no extra legs in the store and they advised me to contact you.

Final Business Response /* (4000, 9, 2014/07/03) */
Hello,
An order has been placed for the legs to ship to the consumer. This is very strange for the retailer to not assist a consumer. It's possible that they should be going through the corporate office. Regardless we will take care of this and ship the legs. The legs are on back-order so it will be a couple weeks before they ship.

We have contacted Sears to get more information and understand why they are not providing support for an item that is under warranty but they don't seem to have any information in their system with the address or phone number provided. Please have [redacted] provide a copy of the bill of sale so we can further investigate and try to help resolve the issue.

Please send a copy of your receipt to [redacted].com.
Business Response /* (4000, 25, 2014/10/18) */
Thank you for providing your receipt. These items were purchased at an outlet store at a significant discount and are sold as-is and without a warranty. If you would like to have them repaired then we can put you in touch with a qualified repair vendor who can advise you on the best course of action. Any and all charges will be at your cost.
Consumer Response /* (3000, 28, 2014/10/22) */
(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
They are not sold as-is the discount is because of sears card bonus.Even when I returned the store last week they confirmed there is one year purchase gaurantee.
Regards
[redacted]
Business Response /* (4000, 30, 2014/10/23) */
We have been in contact with Sears and they have confirmed that the items you have purchased are from an outlet location and are in fact sold as-is, that is why they are deeply discounted. In fact you were given a further discount as the items were sold without legs, which have already been supplied to you free of charge.
If you would like further assistance with your purchase you can contact the sales manager at the Sears Brampton Outlet store where you purchased your goods from, her name is Ruth Rondan and she can be reached at (XXX) XXX-XXXX.

I was able to access the information to take care of these issues. An order for the replacement cable will be shipped from High Point, NC on Monday and the order for the replacement legs bag will ship from Italy to High Point and then on...

to [redacted]. The legs bag will take approximately 30 days. We sincerely apologize for the lack of response. We are doing everything possible to rectify this and take care of the consumer.

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 8, 2015/10/22) */
[redacted] and [redacted] contacted Natuzzi Americas via phone on 09/29/15 regarding an issue they were experiencing with their sectional. In accordance with Natuzzi's after sales procedures, a warranty claim review was conducted so...

that the validity of the warranty claim could be reviewed.
The consumers stated that the footrest of one of the reclining sections of their piece had broken and the motor of that section was non-functioning.
For the warranty claim review the consumers were asked to provide a description of the issue, their current address, photos of the damage, a copy of their sales receipt, and a photo of their sectional's ID tag. The provided information was then reviewed by the after sales coordinator for Natuzzi consumers.
The warranty claim was denied, because the consumers had moved the furniture from the original delivery address. The Natuzzi warranty states that, "if the the original Purchaser transfers this warranty to other parties or moves from the original delivery address," that the warranty will be considered void.
For the warranty claim review, the consumers provided XXXXX [redacted] Largo, FL XXXXX as their current address. The address printed on the receipt from the purchase of the sectional in question lists XXX [redacted] St. Pete, FL XXXXX as the original delivery address.
The Natuzzi warranty also states that claims on, "furniture previously repaired by service centres not endorsed by Natuzzi S.p.A.," are excluded. The consumer stated in an email that,"The footrest wood broke in half and I had to reinforce it with two metal brackets and screws." The consumera are not Natuzzi authorized repair technicians so the repairs they made to the piece have made their claim invalid with Natuzzi.
The consumers claim for assistance with the non-functioning motor can also be denied, because the warranty covering this issue has expired. The Natuzzi warranty covers parts and electrical components for a period of two years after a piece is purchased. The Natuzzi warranty only covers issues deemed by an authorized technician to be a manufacturer's defect. The motor on the consumer's piece is no longer covered under this two year warranty as the piece was purchased on 12/11/12.
Natuzzi will be happy to provide copies of the warranty as well as copies of the emails with the consumers.

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)
Come on Natuzzi! You are putting lipstick on a pig by charging us customers for top grain leather and constructing it with inferior padding and wood structure. I will not accept you to hide behind the excuse that because professional movers relocated our sectional you will no longer stand behind your product.
If anything, I will remain as an unresolved complaint and totally dissatisfied customer with the intention of communicating your weak support of a product that has major flaws to all of your potental customers who are savvy enough to research a company before deciding upon a purchase. I will not go away until you fix our sectional. BUYER BEWARE!
The true quality of an organization is not whether you have problems or not. Every organization has problems. The true quality representation of a company is HOW you respond to these problems. Think about that Natuzzi before making a decision on my problem.
My suggestion: Do the right thing and fix our sectional.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 37, 2015/11/20) */
At Natuzzi we understand that life happens and that sometimes there can be issues and we stand behind our product, with that being said the [redacted]'s voided their warranty in a way that we cannot overlook. When the initial issues happened to the piece instead of reaching out to the place of purchase or Natuzzi to complete service or replace the piece the [redacted]'s took matters into their own hands and purchased materials and altered our piece without giving us the option of sending a Natuzzi certified technician out to the home. Because of this I cannot say if they cause further damage, that the piece was repaired to specifications, or that their repair kept the structural integrity of the piece intact. Because of this the warranty is voided and we will not reconsider our position on the matter.
Final Consumer Response /* (4200, 44, 2015/12/15) */
Complaint closed? I don't think so. Give me the added days to respond through the holidays like you did Natuzzi.
My response to Natuzzi is:
You continue to neglect the fact you are manufacturing and distributing an inferior product. Your customers are TRYING to provide you meaningful feedback. You continue to ignore their cries for help! Can you call yourself a responsible and responsive business. I think not.
I know I am communicating with a staff employee that, if I was President of this division of Natuzzi, would have you relieved of your duties immediately. But I must suppose that you are acting under orders to ignore all customer input and deny any request for furniture repair.
I say you MUST start responding to this feedback. As to my situation. I completely reject your "attempt to simply sweep this under the rug until I go away" attitude and demand the following:
1. A letter of apology for the demeaning treatment I have received.
2. For you to reimburse [redacted] for the repair of my sofa. They were gracious enough to, after understanding what I was going through with you, reinforce the substandard padding with quality padding and secure the padding with more reliable strapping.
You should be ashamed of yourself as a company to have so many outstanding and unresolved complaints out there. You should not be be allowed to distribute your trash in the USA. It is a privilege to do business here not a right of passage. I will continue to direct my activities to this end until you cease your fraudulent behavior.

We have already approved a replacement and are completing research to identify the piece so that we can order a new piece.

A replacement of the couch would be great. However,no one from Natuzzi has contacted me to confirm or attempt to schedule anything. When I called the customer service number I had been speaking with they had no update to their records suggesting a replacement was approved and were unwilling to help. If someone contacts me to set up delivery I will be happy to accept the response.

Sofa has been replaced. We are satisfied with the response.

I authorized repairs and the technician is scheduled to complete the repairs 2/15/16 at 10:00am

(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the...

The repairman came and went and in a matter of two days the couch had begun to sag again. When the repairman was here and had the couch apart it was clear to see that the couch was made with mdf or particle board and constructed with inferior craftsmanship. The only fair and complete resolution at this point is a full refund.
Final Business Response /* (4000, 18, 2016/03/10) */
Replacement piece was authorized 2/29/2016 and the consumer has already been notified.
