I received a beautiful Bella Lago 8 pc. Patio Dining set a few months ago as a housewarming gift. We were going to move so I didn't bother opening the boxes until after we moved into our new place. I decided to have a big family BBQ on Father's Day so the day before, we open the set to put everything together. We quickly discovered the patio table had NO legs. The box said they were there. The instructions said they were there. But nothing.
I called the manufacturer as directed in the paperwork. (JRA Furniture) I've been calling since Monday and it's Friday. I am on hold for a minimum of 20 minutes before it disconnects me. I have spent OVER 5 hours this week on hold and have been disconnected every time. I have tried both 800 numbers and the long distance number with the identical result. I also emailed them at [email protected] and every email has been sent back with a message that the company is over their quota.
So Wednesday, I email Sams cust. Serv. To explain the situation BUT because I don't have the original order number, they won't even attempt to help me! I reminded them that they sold unusable merchandise but they don't care. I explained I've been trying to contact JRA and they won't assist there either. So now, I have a patio set that can't be used and Sams is wiping their hands of me. What would I need just legs for if I weren't being honest??? Give me a break! I'm not asking for a return or refund. I just want to use the dang set! After researching JRA on the internet, it seems they are pros at selling faulty patio furniture and apparently, they've filed bankruptcy.
It's a huge disservice on Sams part to allow these items to be sold and then ignore the consumer if it's faulty! Don't buy patio furniture at Sams! I'm even a member but have no desire to renew that anymore. I've given them plenty of money. All I want is legs to my table!
