Long wait but worth it

Products had a long wait to be made but were completed earlier than expected and very flexible with delivery. Delivery was updated very well on the day and care taken in delivering the items to my apartment. Products well packaged and great condition, love them!

Appalling customer support on a faulty Haven Gas Lift bed

Appalling after sales support from Elizabeth at James Lane!!!

The gas lifts on my Haven bed failed twice within the first year, leaving the bed stuck open. I reported the fault before the warranty expired and provided multiple photos and videos.

After more than a dozen emails with customer service, I am still being asked to repeatedly reconnect the gas struts and provide the same evidence again. Each time I reconnect them, I then have to disconnect them again just to get the bed closed and usable.

I originally paid James Lane to professionally assemble the bed, yet I am now expected to repeatedly reattach the gas lifts myself and place a heavy mattress back onto a bed stuck in the open position. As someone who lives alone, this is clearly unsafe and unreasonable.

Rather than arranging a technician to inspect the fault, I have been repeatedly sent in circles and asked to continue troubleshooting the bed myself. Weeks later, the issue remains unresolved.

For a bed for this price, I expected much higher quality and support. Instead, I have been left with a faulty bed and have experienced some of the worst after sales service I have ever encountered.

Really good purchase and delivery experience

Very pleasant and helpful staff at the North Lakes store. Very happy with the product (a bed frame) quality and price. Purchase was easy and quick, with choice of days for delivery. Item was well packed and the delivery team members were courteous and efficient. Only thing that could have been improved would have been notice the day before that I was scheduled for a very early delivery (7.15!!).

Warranty and after sales is a joke! Never buying again

The salespeople in the store were nice but the after sales /warranty process is a total joke. Apparently the people in the store are not allowed to handle anything to do with warranty so you have to lodge an online claim and wait for an email back. It should have been simple: I purchased a tallboy and when I opened the box, there was a huge crack in the paint on the top of the unit (as well as other cracks and imperfections in the paint in other areas but that was the main one). I tried to take it back and ask to swap for the floor stock (which wasn’t on sale when I originally purchased the tallboy or I would have taken that one as it’s $150 less). So I asked the store if I could just swap it over and get the price difference back. They said I would just have to contact the warranty team first.
That’s when the nightmare began. They refused to let me have the floor stock as it’s “not their policy” and kept saying that the massive crack was “just a minor fault” and not a major one therefore I wasn’t entitled to a refund either. This is despite the fact I highlighted the ACCC considers it a “major failure” if the consumer would have not bought the product had they known about the fault which is 100% the case here! Furthermore I would consider a huge crack (not a small scratch!) to be a major fault regardless of whether the furniture is still functional. They kept saying they have ordered a new tallboy but I will have to wait 3 weeks! Well a) that’s not what I want and b) why can’t I have the existing floor stock, otherwise I should be entitled to a full refund. Now they keep ignoring my emails! I am going to try and call and if no one can help I am going to the ACCC and CBS- so angry!!! And I bought other furniture from there which was fine but after this I am never buying from there again!!!

Update: there’s no way to reply on here but if the company wishes to actually give me a proper resolution my case number is 751808 which I am sure they could deduce as I have not hidden my identity.

Incredibly happy with product and delivery

Incredibly happy with product and delivery. Delivery driver (I believe Chris was his name) and colleague were incredibly efficient and brought the furniture inside when they didn’t haven’t to. They took extra care to ensure nothing was damaged.

New customers & very impressed.

First time we bought from James Lane a gas lift bed. We found the company very easy to deal with. The boys delivered, installed & removed the wrapping. Were very impressed with the overall experience. From customer service to installation, everyone was extremely helpful, very professional & friendly. We would recommend them & will purchase again from them! Good old fashioned service . You all are an asset to the COY.

James Lane - online purchasing

I bought four Aerosol Cans of furniture protector. They charged me $30 delivery fee!!!! Then on top of that decided the product was on back order. This is a scam in my opinion. Tell the customer the product is ‘on sale’ then charge $30 delivery fee on a product not available. VERY POOR SERVICE. I would give a 0 star if I could.
