“What a Novel Idea!”

Ann F.
2/7/21

The gift that hits a unique genre, sympathy. What better way to comfort someone than with chicken soup! I've gotten many compliments for I'll or even condolences for 2020. Wish I had thought of this idea!

“Problem with Order and No follow up”

Paul T.
4/29/24

I ordered two gift boxes for our neighborhood HOA. Both were received in their boxes upside down. Opening the boxes as you would think to do so, based on the box and information, resulted in the items falling out as the box was opened upside down. Also, the gift card I wrote to go with the items was not included. I have written three times to the company (and sent a video of the box being opened) and have not heard back from them. This exhibits very bad businesses practices.

Couldn't be with our daughter for her birthday this year. First year away at college and she was so happy and surprised by her cake. She also said it was sooooo yummmy. Red Velvet, her favorite.

I placed an order for the "Taste of Christmas" gift basket on December 17th, intending for it to be delivered by December 23rd. However, upon receiving feedback from my father-in-law the day after Christmas, it was evident that the majority of the snacks were stale. Generally, vacuum-sealed food has a shelf life of 1-2 months, but it depends on factors such as storage conditions.

It's disheartening that the company, despite anticipating a holiday rush, didn't ensure the freshness of the products in the baskets. I contacted Customer Service on December 26th, reporting the issue through the site and leaving a review. Strangely, they claimed not to have received the email, and my review, except for the 5-star ratings, mysteriously disappeared.

On January 18th, I received an email from a Personal Gift Concierge named Allyson Kilduff, expressing gratitude for my order (singular, though I placed 3 orders). I shared my bad experience with her, but after a week passed without a response, I followed up. She claimed not to have seen my reply initially and offered a replacement, which I declined, requesting a refund instead. She issued the refund, promising it would take 5-7 business days.

Despite being told on January 25th that the refund was being processed within the specified timeframe, I had not received it by February 3rd. Allyson assured me on February 5th that it was still processing, asking for a few more days. As of February 12th, I have yet to receive the refund, prompting me to initiate a dispute with my bank, given their 90-day window.

Considering my negative experience and feedback from others in different states, I advise potential customers to check reviews outside the company's site before placing orders. My recommendation is to avoid ordering from them altogether. In the future, I plan to create my own gift baskets from vendors with known fresh products, citing Home Goods as a reliable option, where snacks even come with expiration dates.

I purchased an Easter basket for $45 and what they sent was nothing as described. What we received was worth $5 at the very most.

I just finished off the yummiest brownies! They had the perfect amount of chocolate and sweet flavor, similar to ones you would buy at a bakery!

I ordered something to be delivered on a Thursday and I ordered on Monday. They didn't even fill the order. Bad online system, not worth it.
