Great product and great customer…

Great product and great customer service! I have a scratch on my item when it was delivered and the customer service team was very attentive and quick to respond. They were able to help me and were extremely kind!

The media console was packed very well

The media console was packed very well. There wasn’t a scratch on it. We unpacked it on the lower level so it could be taken upstairs more easily. Fortunately we had 2 workers at our house that day who were able to take it upstairs for us. If they hadn’t been there, the piece might still be sitting in the garage until we could find someone to help us with it. I thought your price of $119 to take it upstairs for us a flight of steps was exorbitant so we chose not to pay for that. That is my only negative about the experience.
I’m very glad the piece I chose came back into stock because it goes beautifully.

Im so happy I found Hernest

I had a great experience with the Thorsten 72" Oval Dining Table from start to finish. The tabletop arrived the day after I placed the order, and the delivery was excellent, the driver brought it inside and was friendly and professional. I also appreciated receiving a text early that morning with a delivery update. I received an email a few days later to schedule the delivery of the base and I was able to book delivery within two days.
Assembly was simple, my husband put it together in about 15–20 minutes. The quality is fantastic, and he was really impressed.

Online shopping is not what it’s cracked up to be

OK, the price was great. The service sucked. They dropped it at the front door and wouldn’t even bring it inside. The product is fine except it’s very hard to open the drawers even if I oil it so in reality that’s why it’s three stars.

Dear Edward Bobinski,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your recent order. We truly appreciate you highlighting both what worked well and where we fell short.

We understand your frustration with the delivery being left at the front door. Our Free Threshold Delivery service includes a pre-arranged delivery window for your convenience and places the item in the closest dry area of your residence, and in-room placement requires our Room of Choice or White Glove Delivery upgrade.

We're also sorry the drawers have been hard to open even with oil. We’d like to understand the details better and help resolve it for you. If you’re open to it, our team would love to listen to the details and work together on a solution. Please feel free to reach out to us through our Help Center at https://www.hernest.com/help so we can follow up quickly.

Best regards,
HERNEST

A few pointers

The product was the best part - quality. The actual delivery service was great (I liked the 2 guys that came, went out of their way to accommodate my schedule) but scheduling the delivery could be better - days and times offered are limited for a working individual. I cannot sit at home waiting for a desk to come.

Concerns

Prompt and efficient delivery. Was not informed purchase was from a nonUSAcompany therefore was charged a foreign transaction fee on my credit card which could have been avoided had I been informed, Hernest refused to refund the fee.
Also the wood quality of the vanity not good and no soft closures on drawers. Would not buy again.

Dear Sara Wick,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your recent purchase.

We appreciate you highlighting the prompt and efficient delivery. Regarding the foreign transaction fee, this was charged by your bank because our previous payment gateway was not based in the US. We have now fully migrated our gateway to a US-based provider, so this extra fee will no longer occur for future orders.

We use high-quality materials for every product. We’d love to hear more details about the wood quality so we can address it properly. As for the drawers, they are designed with standard ball-bearing slides and do not include a soft-close feature, which is consistent with our product specifications.

We value your honest input and are committed to making every experience better. If you'd like to discuss this further or explore any options, please feel free to reach out to us through our Help Center at https://www.hernest.com/help.

Best regards,
HERNEST

Seriously friendly and attentive service!

Ain, my Customer Experience Specialist with Castlery was friendly and quite helpful. It was actually me who made a mistake in ordering the wrong size. Without acting as though this was a huge imposition, she arranged to halt the shipment of the item, and reordered the correct size for me--making sure to keep me informed along the way. She then arranged for the refund due me, and followed up with the credit memo and accounting information. She is a lovely person, and this was a truly refreshing customer service experience!

Very pleased with the furniture

Our furniture arrived faster than anticipated and was packed well. It was easy to put together which was very much appreciated. It was so good to see less styrofoam without compromising the finish of the product.

Love my new Valborg in my upgraded space 🖤

I paired the Valborg 63" in Black Elm with a navy boucle round ottoman and gold tray as the centerpiece — the warm wood interior visible through the arched glass doors is the perfect backdrop for displaying colorful cookware and ceramics. I styled the top with family photos, a polka dot vase, fresh greenery, and a gold sunburst accent — intentional but not overdone. The black elm finish against a dusty blue accent wall with a stone fireplace is stunning. The piece anchors the entire room and looks far more expensive than it is. Fully assembled delivery was the cherry on top — I had it styled within an hour of arrival. If you're looking for a statement piece that's also functional, stop scrolling. The Valborg delivers
