Brand new washing machine, needs new transmission + spin basket after 9 days
I bought a new washing machine on April 2, 2022 and delivered on April 5. Started making loud ticking noises on April 14. Stopped using and reported to warranty center. Repair man came on April 21 and requested new transmission.
Part ordered and repairman returned on May 3, 2022. Repaired transmission but determined that the spin basket was damaged as well and needed to be replaced. So I am very upset with experience. Now I understand that stuff happens but this is my problem. I have had to take now 9 hours of my time
and spend 72 dollars of my money to take my laundry to the laundromat and now when i needed to to laundry today. I cant because I have wait again for the Spin basket to be ordered and installed. So now I have had no washing machine for 19 days and counting. I have to go back to laundromat which I do not have time to because I have to back to work in i which I took time off to meet the repair man. This is unacceptable customer service for someone who purchased a brand new washing machine.
Desired outcome: I want my washing machine replaced and I want compensation for my time, laundromat costs and grief for this horrible experience. I will now exert all efforts and avenues to make my concerns heard.
Never buy anything from the Brick. There warranty and customer care centers are horrible. They do not help you , they just tell you they cant do anything for you no matter what the circumstance. I would never treat one of my customers the way I was treated.
Chairs ordered in Dec 2021 still not delivered in May 2022!

Substandard black leather sofa
Hi
Bought a Black Leather sofa from The Brick. Sales order / Invoice - 071804DMLAY from 1200 Lansdowne St W. Peterborough, ON. along with 5 year Extended warranty no 750-499.99, which was sold to me by David Witt (sales person) by saying this covers everything from top to bottom.
Sofa sagged from one side and due to that reason made a complaint to The Brick service department. They confirmed that they will send inspector. Inspector visited and during his visit he confirmed to us that sagging is due to broken spring and also confirmed that someone from The Brick will contact us and send someone to fix this problem. Nobody from bricks called me for over a month or so today i called The Brick service to confirm when they are going to send guy to fix this problem.
Lady from The Brick said sagging is due to foam and it is not covered by warranty i bought. I was shocked by her answer that first it was totally different from what inspector said secondly it totally different from what her sales person said. I tried to explain to her that why someone will buy a sofa of which main component "Foam" has no warranty that how many days, weeks and months it is going to last. But even paid extra amount to buy extended warranty to which cover nothing. I tried to explain same to her Service manager Brab as well but they said they cant help me. I told them they have lied.
Can you please help
Desired outcome: Fix sagging of my Sofa or replace it or refund amount i paid Need help
Dishwasher, dining table and chairs
I had made a large purchase September 2020 - sectional, dishwasher, dining table and 6 chairs. My couch didn’t even last a year before there was a rip due to poor manufacturing. I’m being told the couch will be replaced, as it should be however I will need to repurchase extended warrantee. With it not lasting even a year, it should be covered without me having to invest even more into it!
Not the worst of it, it is now April 2022.. I had put in a claim for the table, chairs and dishwasher in March - dishwasher does not work at all, table and chairs are falling apart! I contact the store I purchased the items from - they will not honour the extended warrantee! They are saying I did not purchase it! However, if you look at my invoice it clearly shows that I paid for warrantee for all items purchased on that date!
Desired outcome: Furniture and appliance replaced
My warranty not being honored
We spent over 5 thousand dollars on a couch a table and chairs and bunk bed for our kids within a month our couch on mostly all the seams on the couch have ripped open, screws have fallen out of the bottom zippers have fell off its a eye sore to look at 2 different people have came to look at it and we keep getting the run around for over a year now nothing is being resolved are chair's to our dinning room table have cracked down the wood cant sit on 2 of them the kids bunk bed has fallen apart...
Desired outcome: To honor the warranty
Recliner sofa
I purchased a Leather recliner Sofa and Chair set, as well as a furniture warranty. August 3, 2019. Before a year was up the stiching on the side of the middle cushion started to come apart. They sent someone, who replaced the middle cushion under the manufacturer warranty. Less than a year later, while my extended 3 year warranty was still valid, the imitation leather on the side of the left side cushion started to crack and peel. I assumed that defect would be covered under the warranty that I perchased at a cost of $274.99, would cover the defect but to my surprise after making a claim that the furniture warranty only covered the springs and the frame. Isn't convenient that the forgot to mention that when I purchased the warranty. The sales consultant also told me that the 3 year extended warranty would be good for 3 years after the 1 year manufacturer warranty expired. That was a lie as well as I later found out it covered 3 years from purchase. How can you treat customers with such deceptive tactics. If you offer an extended warranty at least be honest about what it covers.
New dinning is table chairs ordered
We decided to renovate our AirB&B and ordered a dinning table and 6 chairs from the brick. This is not our first purchase from the brick, we have spent nearly $20,000 with them over the past years. We live in Whitby, our AirB&B is in Trenton. We purchased some other items like 2 queen mattress as well with this order and so needed to rent a truck to transport these things to the AirB&B. When we were putting our table and the chairs together we noticed two of the chairs had the wrong size legs so I contacted the brick in Whitby and I was told to send it some pictures, which I did and after they determined the manufacture did not package the item properly so they will either order the correct legs or new chairs all together. I was then told it will take 3-5 months for the correct parts to arrive and if they ordered me the chairs, those won’t arrive till June. We have a booking for mid May so it’s not possible that we have a 4 seater dinning table when 6 guests arrive. There is just no solution being offered for their mess up. It’s terrible how they would treat a customer who has spent so much money with them. Clearly they don’t care if they lose us as a customer. I expect for a solution to a problem that was created by them. None of the options offered by customer is a solution to the problem.
Desired outcome: Provide us with a reasonable solution for the problem that was created by them.
King size bed
My bed springs have issues that are used for storage. Its not working. Kindly send the technician to fix it. Thanks
Boxspring
I purchased a box-spring for my sons bed (size: Full) -from the Durham Center on Kingston rd. I chose to pick it up from the whitby location.
When I got it home (after renting a truck to pick it up -spending $60 on a rental) and opened up the plastic wrap around it I noticed the bottom of it was all ripped. I was very upset because although we only spent $100 on the boxspring it is a purchase that you expect wont be damaged .
When i called the brick in whitby the Lady who answered the phone told me- " no worries, we will come and pick up the damaged one and bring you a new one" .. I was content with that answer.
I was later surprised when the manager from the brick in the Durham center called me and said that wouldn't be happening. He said you decided to pick it up now you are responsible for going to the store to get another one. I told him that I had spent money to get it in a rental truck and I felt it was only fair if they delivered a new one to me. He was screaming and very ignorant saying there is no exceptions, they will be loosing money by bringing me a new one. I was very upset when I got off the phone. He didn't show any sort of willingness to help the situation, just made it seem like this was my fault in some way.
Desired outcome: Pick up the damaged product and bring a undamaged one.
Warranty is garbage
The Brick sold us a warranty with King and State which seems to be a scam because we have been waiting since Dec 2021 (4 months and counting) for anyone to fix our ice maker. We were initially told someone would come to our house and the guy no showed but called and said he had to order a part (even though he never even came and diagnosed the problem). We didn’t hear from anyone so we followed up end of Jan 2022 and was advised part is on order. Never heard from anyone again. We decided to go to The Brick in Coquitlam as they sold us the [censored] warranty and they told us they could do nothing and they haven’t done anything to help us. I sent another email to King and State in early March and then my husband got a call from them saying the part was just being ordered. So we were being lied to that the part was on order for the last two months. We asked for an ETA on the part 4 weeks ago and they have not provided us with any information. They told us the part was ordered Mar 16 but we have been told this before and it was [censored]. I think The Brick is selling scam warranties and we will never deal with them again once this ever gets resolved.
Desired outcome: We would like the warranty honoured and our ice maker fixed

Dining room set
So back in October 2021 I purchased a dining room set the table is marble to match our new kitchen counters and 6 comfortable chairs. Now when I made this large purchase which to mention is completely paid off I was estimating by Christmas for delivery.

On Jan 28/2022 we bought the dishwasher FPID2498 from the Brick at Ridgeway, Mississauga. The dishwasher came with unresponsive control panel. After few visits and calls to the store finally the repairman came on Feb 10th. He ordered the part and as of today we haven’t heard back. We went to the store again to complain but nothing has been done. Very very disappointing, after all this years buying the furniture from the Brick store, we will never go back.

5 years furniture warranty
I purchased a dinning set on 2017 may 28. and I have bought the 5 years warranty. two of those chairs were broken in the year 2018. the company exchanged them. after few months. in the year 2019, the other four chairs were broken continuously. I claim these to the warranty department. but the customer service told me that couldn't be happened with the chairs broken in the same time. Finally they sent a inspection guy came to my house and do the repairs. but that repair guy told me the chairs are not repairable and he will reported that issues to the company. He let me wait for the warranty department contact me. But I didn't get any response. I made chat online with them again. they told me the chairs are still good to use (the picture is these chairs conditions ). They told me to claim again when the chairs are broken. The third time I made claim them get back to me that the claim is not approved because the broken didn't not happened within14 days. They told me the broken happened long time ago. The know that!
They don't have phone number I can call to explain the problem. Each time I chat with them online. They keep to send me the same thing which is the warranty guide, and ask me to claim again and I missed the right time again.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
Regarding the store credit refund when no claim has been made on warranty cover.
We went into the Brick in Sasakatoon to use the credit refund after not having made a claim over the five years warranty period. We were told that we had to spend $100 over and above the credit refund amount or we could not have it.
I spoke to the insurance company this morning they did not know that this was how you treated your customers and suggested that I put in a formal complaint.
This is disgusting and underhanded as we were not told about it when opting for extended warranty. Is this the practice in all of your stores?
I trust that I will be hearing from you in due course.
Regards
Thomas Brander
Desired outcome: To be able to use the credit refund without spending more if we do not need to. In our case it would to be back dated to September 2021.

my order
I made a purchase from the Brick on Wharncliffe Road, London, ON. I made a purchase in December 2021. I bought a king bed set and a dining set. I was told in March 2022 that the dining table is in stock and the chairs are not in stock yet. I thought it would be odd to just keep the table in the living room without the chairs so I asked them if they can hold the table until they get the chairs in stock, The lady assured me that they will hold the table and she will call me in mid-April to set up the delivery. She called me again telling me that the chairs are still not in stock. On May 30, 2022, the operation manager of that store emailed me that the order will be in stock at the mid-end of April and they will call me to set up a delivery. I got a call from their store today and they told me that the chairs are now in stock and the table has been pushed further. I was told that they will hold the table until they get the chairs, and now they are telling me exactly the opposite thing.
I bought a new house and bought the major furniture from brick which was a terrible mistake. Whatever I bought from Ashley, Tapperman and Leons were delivered on the date they promised. They did not even ask me to make any payments before the delivery, I have been making payments for my undelivered furniture from brick and all they do is keep delaying the delivery date and telling me different stories.
I was never once told that the furniture can be delayed if I do not set up delivery on time. If I knew this, I would never do anything to push the delivery date even further. It has already been very inconvenient without a bed set and dining table for the last months. After the operation supervisor emailed me that the order will be available in mid or end of April, I was waiting for their phone call. All they told me was that they cannot do anything about this. They need to tell the customers all the conditions so the customer can make a decision in their best interest. They just tell part of the information and then the other person will tell you the other part, which is horrible.
Desired outcome: I need to know why I was not told about the policy that the furniture can be delayed if I do not schedule a delivery. They should have told me what the impact of my delaying the delivery can be. I also want my furniture to be delivered.

Desired outcome: Full replacement

Purchased modular couch with additional chaise
Even though our sales lady was great, I find the brick to be quick to take your money for a sale but short on delivery promises. We purchased a rather expensive modular couch with chaises and were told it would be completed and delivered in Mid April 2022, however we have just been informed the couch would not be done until July 2022. Meanwhile we are...

Moderna sectional
I purchased the moderna sectional in November of 2020 as well as a warranty (on the advise of the Brick). I waited months for it to arrive and once it did arrive it was clearly a poorly made product.

Read full review of The BrickSectional sofa and bed frame
Hi,
We bought a sofa and bed frame couple of years ago from The brick store located at : 3025 Ridgeway Dr, Mississauga, ON L5L 5P8 .
We have bought all our home furniture from The Brick, because of the quality of the products and we were so proud and telling every family and friends about The Brick quality and reasonable price.
But unfortunately we weren't happy with our recent purchase. After 2 years sofa metal came out and my 8 years old son got injured. Also sofa seat went deep down as well. Don't know what happened to The Brick quality! Very Sad!
Bed frame also after 2 years got broken(inside), we can not sleep on that.
Basically we spent $4000 for only 2 years of products using!
Very disappointed with The Brick quality and as a loyal customer we are expecting The Brick to look into this matter.
