“Lifesaver”

Oleg T.
3/15/24

This store has been my lifesaver on so many occasions. I am kind of a clumsy guy who always remembers to buy a gift when needed in the last hour 🥴 And just remembered that I have never written a review at least to thank them for their amazing service and show how happy I am that I have discovered them. Now, whenever I have occasion for a gift, I turn to their website and see if I can find something appropriate. And I always do 😀 The gifts come in nice and fancy packages, the prices are affordable and the delivery is fast. Also, they have a remarkable assortment so it is not tricky to find something for whatever occasion it is.

“What you'll get for $150”

Are there even any words? Gift basket delivery was late, so my mother in laws birthday was over, you can see what they advertise vs what they deliver... and as for the wine? Cheap moscato that even had a "great value" sticker on it...

Most of it being my fault being 85 and handicapped, I went thru the packages fast and selected what I thought was a nice package and it comes with comments like the paCKAGES WERE very small although they were very tastry

Reason I chose this business:

We needed to get a gift fast and yours program was the first one thought of.

The basket I ordered was quite small and underwhelming for the price. I guess I should have measured the dimensions to understand how little it would be.

They are liars! If you pick something that states (guarantee delivery same day if ordered before 2 pm) and are counting on it to get done forget i!. I ordered small regular flowers nothing exotic and a simple fruit basket nothing you can't run to the grocery down the street and get to be delivered same day. Ordered at 8:30 am, they call and said their partenering forest did not have the fruit basket ready because it takes time to get the freshest fruit can in be delivered in the morning. I said sure but need to be in the morning my mother in law is having bypass surgery the next day and need to have time to enjoy the gifts. Yes mam will do! LIE! It is 4:30 pm the next day still not delivered but the reason is the forest did not have the exact flowers yesterday (LIE)! The I call this after noon earlier they said it is on the truck and will be there soon now they are saying maybe around 6 pm! She can't eat after 9pm and now has a basket of fruit and flowers she will only see for a few hours when she should have been able to enjoy then for a day in a half. She will go to surgery and be in the hospital (ICU 3 days floor 2 days) the flowers will be dead when she gets home and the fruit rotted. I expressed this at each call and no one gave a crap! My Advise Call a direct place within the area you are send and deal directly with them. Gift Tree got my 130.00 dollars and cause me distress, disappointment, anger and sadness if you want to risk feeling the same way give them a call put you loving thoughts in their hands!

The cukescakes received were just as advertised. They were beautiful and delicious too. Cakes were well packaged to prevent spoilage and any distortion of the gorgeous decorations.

Reason I chose this business:

It seemed like a trustworthy company and their products appeared to be of high quality.

Reason I chose this product:

I chose the cupcakes because they appeared to fit the occasion and the person to whom they were being gifted. They were very tastefully decorated and very attractive.

The basket I ordered was supposed to be delivered TODAY (March 17th). I ordered AND PAID plenty of time in advance for this to be delivered TODAY. Yet, it was NOT DELIVERED as ordered. This was an important gift for a 90th birthday.
VERY DISAPPOINTING!

It was a lovely basket but due to the extreme heat the chocolates melted but I think they put them in the freezer and refroze them, they really enjoyed the cookies/biscuits

What Gift Tree did to me is called "bait and switch". Charged me top dollar for beautiful flower arrangement that they displayed on a website picture. Sent me email that gift is scheduled for delivery and then at the last moment informed me that flowers are not available and instead they would replace them with so called "designer choice". They refuse to show me how the flowers look like and did not allow to speak with a florist. I did not have time to reorder another flowers, so I was hoping the Gift Tree would have curtesy to replace the arrangement with something comparable to what I have ordered. What they sent instead did not worth even fraction of what I ordered. That was just an embarrassment! When I called customers service they said if I have problems they would have to collect the flowers back. It was terrible, as they did not embarrass me enough.
What a rip off! Just want to warn fellow shoppers, so they be careful and would not become victims of Gift Tree with theirs rip-off service.

Dear Vira,

We appreciate you shopping with us, and giving us your business. I see this experience was not as pleasant as we had hoped, and I wanted to personally apologize for letting you down.

It is greatly disappointing to know that the bouquet you selected was not able to be fulfilled in the Fort Pierce, FL area. Upon calling out to several florists in this and surrounding areas, we did contact you the day prior to the requested delivery date to discuss options of what could be done and moved ahead with your approval to deliver a designer's choice arrangement.

While setting proper expectations, each designers choice is indeed a one-of-a-kind creation and we are not able to pin-point exact flowers that will be used in these arrangements. I do see that a 50% refund has been issued back to your account and again am very sorry that this was not a great experience.

Your feedback is valuable and we will continue to work on improving for our wonderful customers.

Best Regards,
Sara

Hi susan,
Thank you for your recent order! I have reviewed the tracking details of your gift and do see that the cause of this delay was due to severe weather conditions. Our team and the shippers had been working diligently to deliver as many packages as early or on time as possible and sadly, despite our best efforts, there were severe storms right at the end of this peak season that impacted deliveries. We are truly sorry for this weather delay. This is not the level of customer service we're used to and we apologize that we've let you down.

Best regards,
Nicol M.

The gift was great, but didn't have a card identifying who had sent it. This was the 2nd time I have used this service, and this happened the first time also.

Reason I chose this business:

I likes the variety of choices.

Reason I chose this product:

I thought my father would enjoy the products included in the basket.

Thank you for your recent order! It pains me to hear the card messages weren't received with your gifts. We take extra measures to tuck each card in safely with the little sleeve attached to the scissors that come with the gift and tie it tightly to the ribbon. It doesn't happen often, but sometimes the card does slip out and get lost within the packaging which does no one any good! https://www.gifttree.com/unboxing-your-gift

If he's like me, he may enjoy holding onto the card to remember the sentiment later. I would be more than happy to re-send the missing card message to your father.

Please let me know how I can assist with this!

Went to order another basket for a client. The delivery charge was $25 plus. The front page of your website said FREE SHIPPING. I canceled the second order.

Was told the destination address triggered the shipping charge. Frazier Park, Kern County, and Huntington Beach, Orange County, depending on where you are located - does not seem to be a big whoop of difference.

Reason I chose this business:

By mistake, I googled Harry and David.

I have used your service for many years and have almost always been impressed with both the quality and delivery punctuality of your product and service. Sadly I can't say that this time around. Imagine my surprise when I paid extra to have my gift delivered on the 23rd of December and it has been delayed til the 29th with no explanation whatsoever (the 24th or 26th would have been fine). I would expect to be refunded the extra delivery fee in this case. I was also promised a 15% discount on 4 orders I made on the same day after receiving the email offering such. I initially only used the code on the last one and notified the customer service rep of my oversight. I was assured via email that the discount would be applied. Looking at my credit card statement online I see no such credits. I would have liked to have seen some transparency where it was clarified as to why I did not receive the discount and why the delivery is so late. I have received neither. Please be forthcoming regarding these issues.

Didn't deliver on time, didn't retroactively apply discount as promised, gave no follow up explanation for lapse in promised service

Guess I wasn't too smart about this. Probably should have done 1 order instead of four so only got 15% off one...stupid but the promo code prompt isn't really obvious. It would be nice if you could adjust this for me but you're probably not obligated

Business History

We define generosity.
GiftTree is proud to bear the pomegranate as our emblem, as it perfectly embodies our approach to designing and curating our gifts. Spanning continents and cultures, the pomegranate has served as a symbol of generosity since ancient times. When extended as an offering, pomegranates signify good will and the best intentions from one heart to another. The pomegranate is, essentially, who we are at our core - defining generosity.

Exclusive keepsake containers.
The presentation of your gift is carefully planned to maximize the “wow” effect at first sight. Ordinary boxes won’t do. We design shapes, choose colors and select durable, luxurious materials for all our signature trays, baskets and chests. As a result, they can be repurposed for years, granting your gift impressive staying power.

Your gift will be swiftly on its way.
The vast majority of gifts ship the day you order them…from whichever of our three locations is closest to the shipping address. If you are a last-minute person, this is music to your ears.
