Oh, what a terrible experience. I suggest that if you live anywhere outside of a capital city (even just a 1-hour drive) rethink getting custom made curtains or blinds from Curtain Wonderland. The service is atrocious even though the company sprouts on its web page that the customer comes first. I accepted that it would take 4 - 6 weeks to have… Read more
products made; however, I was not informed that installation was subject to whenever a truck could be sourced and then, whether the installer had time. In short, my curtains were made and 'apparently' (hard to get answers) delivered to a city warehouse at about the 6-week mark. After many phone calls and emails, I eventually found out that it was perfectly acceptable to Curtain Wonderland, for me to wait another 8 weeks for a truck and installer to be available to install my custom-made products. Every time I look at my curtains, I feel annoyed, upset and down right cranky! I'm hoping one day that feeling will go away.
AVOID! Absolutely zero customer service. No response to multiple emails and their number simply do not pick up or disconnects. Will never use this company again, after spending a good $150 on a curtain rail that bows when just trying to hang, even without attempting to hand something. Show details
I don't know how this company is still in business – I organized my work day around this person supposedly coming to measure & quote me on 6 windows. No phone calls, no apologies from store staff when I called twice to enquire on her whereabouts. Incompetent!! Show details

Loving our new sheer curtains!! – The overall customer service was exceptional, as they kept me updated throughout the entire process. I had a great experience with Sue who came to do measure and quote and Juan & Rosa who installed them. Sue’s product knowledge is amazing. She was informative, patient, thorough m, professional and very friendly. The pricing was good, the promised… Read more
timeframes were spot on and installation was courteous and efficient. Ross and Juan cleaned up after. They were very professional. We are loving our sheers curtains. They really do complete the look and feel of our home. Thank you, for an amazing experience. Will be recommending to all my family and friends.
A very happy customer

Great Experience – It’s always so enjoyable to shop at Curtain wonderland Jindalee. They always have something I like. I’ve never been disappointed with quality. Nikki & Shelley were very helpful today. Yet again I found what I wanted. My purchases in the past have primarily been curtains. Today I branched out to Manchester. Hey everyone - they have super king quilt covers Show details

We had curtain wonderland install blockout curtains in our main bedroom. When the lady came to measure i asked specifically about the curtains going all the way to the ceiling and was assured the hem of the curtains would reach the ceiling thereby… Read more
makeing the room dark. The curtains were installed and of course the hem of the curtains were nowhere near the ceiling so they were not blockout because light was coming in. Also the curtains were not evenly reaching the floor. My wife didn't want to make a fuss about the blockout curtains not being blockout because we needed curtains and it would have been a complete rejection of the whole setup with more wait time. But we did complain about the gaps at the floor. The rep at CW tried to palm us off to the installer but we said no no we arranged for this though you so you can fix it by contacting whoever you need to. The floor issue was resolved but to this day I feel it was a waste of money because it is not what we were expecting or paid for. So I would not recommend.
Follow-up · followup - We only complained about the installation issue and had them arrange the fix rather than what they initially wanted which was for us to contact the installer directly. Curtain Wonderland never checked with us on how the fix went or wethwer we were happy. I would go elsewhere next time. Fabric quality was good but customer service was nil.

so poorly manufactured that they can not be installed without modification to parts. In my opinion they are of unacceptable quality and not fit for purpose.
Follow-up · To follow-up, curtain wonderland were happy to refund the unopened blinds but not the already installed but faulty blind.
We ordered made to measure curtains and pelmets. They quoted 7 weeks lead time, 16,800.00$ for the lot. After 17 weeks they finally delivered. 3 guys who spoke no English came and: 1) cut the pelmets too short and without angle cutter and they… Read more
covered the corners with dirty corner pieces of plastic, left big gaps to the wall and supported one part of pelmets with a little piece of wood. (As they cut out wrongly). 2) One curtain cannot even be pulled back, stuck in the middle. Curtain Wonderland can’t even hang up a curtain 3) Smashed glass top of bedside table. Not repaired, after all this time.
4) Broke lamp. Not repaired, not returned. 5) Ripped existing curtain. Not repaired.
We sent email the same day and complained. This is now nearly 3 months ago. Words, promises, appointments when no one showed up.
Stay away from that company by all means. We will now take this to Fair Trading.
Follow-up · After repeated promises and a 4th no-show we involved Fair Trading Qld. Now we have the glass top and the bedside table lamp back and repaired and the office curtain hung correctly (we can now pull it back, hurray!). CW ordered replacement pelmets which will be delivered (according to them) in 6-8 weeks and cut to measure on the premises.… Read more

Bought the blockout curtains with the thermal backing from Bundall, Qld, which we are using in 3 bedrooms. The blockout coating after a few months turns to dust and leaves debris all over the floor and window sills. We got them replaced under warranty but then they only give you the same thing so a year on, the 2nd lot disintegrated as well. So after the $$$$ in expense only a couple of years use out of them and they're in the bin.
Thanks so much to Lorna and Angela for there help and such great customer service. Been coming here for a while and had nothing but a great experience and wanting me to come back again to buy more. Show details
It's impossible to get into contact with anyone about my order. No responses to my email, the phone number to head quarters is disconnected. I ordered 2 weeks ago, no updates, no shipping, nothing. Show details
NEVER, NEVER BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! I was so impressed with the lady who came to quote for the product and her thoroughness, help and customer service - she could not have done more. That's where it went downhill! Ordered and paid for blinds in July 2024 and in September 2025 after receiving blinds that didn't fit twice, many no shows for… Read more
installation and incorrect product being supplied, I'm still waiting for completion of my order! Their products are poor quality and ill-fitting, pricing is not competitive, manufacture times exhorbitant and customer service and accountability non-existent. The numbers in their terms and conditions are disconnected and it is impossible to speak to any level of management. They don't give you the courtesy to communicate - you have to chase them and time and time again get no response or ridiculous excuses. They've got your money so could careless if you receive your product and/or are happy with it. DON'T DO IT TO YOURSELF! There are so many other companies with better products!!

Cannot make what they advertise. I chose a product within the cut to size specifications offered, and was contacted to be informed that they don't make curtains that size. In fairness, they called me and arranged a refund. They are still offering cut to size specifications that they told me they don't do.
Follow-up · In answer: They didn't explain why, they changed the size available on the curtain in question before they replied to me. The refund was fairly prompt. I did make a mistake in my order, but wanted 2300 drop, which was within the 2500 drop limit available on the page at the time. I have included a screenshot of a similar item on their website.… Read more

Firstly I would like to say how wonderful our sales rep [Name Removed] was. She was truely amazing. Professional, polite and on point with her knowledge. The product was great however that is where my positivity ends. We had a ‘contractor’ come and hang our blinds and fittings. He spoke next to no English and was incredibly difficult to… Read more
communicate with. I asked him several times if he was ok with our corner mounted television (in our bedroom) which was on a swing arm being moved as windows were located on each side of this area. He just nodded and smiled at me. Saying “yes, yes”. I left him to do his business. Some hours later he left. He did not call me at anytime for assistance or help. He left. That night I turned my television on to find that the cord had been ripped out of the back. Not taken out but ripped out and broken. Clearly with force. It had been placed back into the socket only falling out upon me moving the television. So I immediately contact the company via email to advise what had happened. It takes me several emails and phone calls which all go unanswered and several weeks for them to finally get back to me stating the installer denied doing it and that I needed evidence of him damaging it. How do I prove that… do I record every contractor in my home as he/she works. So would I recommend the company NO… I won’t be using them again
We had Kelly from Curtain Wonderland Tweed Heads quote for a job. She was a wonderful help in selecting curtains and blinds for our new house. We were so impressed with her knowledge and experience and she also allocated us time to really think about certain decisions we had to make. I would thoroughly recommend Kelly if you need some expert advice. I am excited about getting our new curtains and blinds. Show details

AVOID No Guarantees.STEER CLEAR OF CURTAIN WONDERLAND/KRESTA Made to measure Curtains. 13 Months on, still without the curtains I ordered, My ongoing experience is ALARMING. If you are considering a Made to measure service, I strongly urge you to look elsewhere. Order placed 9th May 2024. Incorrect length supplied drop short by 33 mm instead… Read more
of 3mm. When you have an issue there is no one in Australia Head Office in Queensland that can make a decision as higher management are based in China where they have their factory. No empathy, or interest in resolving issues, just constant procrastinating. EXCESSIVE DELAYS. I have experienced significant delays, to date Curtain Wonderland have not provided me with the curtains I ordered originally in October 2023 ! the first curtains had an alarming sickly smell caused by the blockout coating on the back of the curtains, I asked for advice as to how I could eliminate just ignored . so I returned them to store and continued to be ignored and refused to do anything for months so stressed no curtains. No refund until they finally agreed a credit note. I went into the Helensvale store to select my fabric, I must highlight that the ladies working in the local retail stores are helpful, but sadly this is where it stops. Curtain Wonderland Staff in Australia have no authority to make decisions they in turn have to contact higher management who are based in China causing long delays. 13 months since I placed this order..I’m still waiting for my replacement curtains . I have had no update on them since the curtains were taken away for alterations in November 2024. MEASUREMENT SPECIFICATION. Despite this time , paying an extra fee of $90 for an additional curtain technician for measurement accuracy errors cropped up. Firstly, I noticed on my quote curtain runners stated 33 an odd and uneven split)16 on one side 17 on the other) that made no sense for a pair of curtains? When I flagged up this error I was told no adjustment can be made. Only later to be informed that the runner count was “amended “ to 40 runners with no clear explanation. When the curtains arrived when hung up they were far too short way off the floor as shown in my photos. My curtains are directly ceiling height so no adjustment there can be made to drop as this is the style of the room. My Curtain Wonderland contract clearly stated “Zero Ground tolerance “ and this was made very clear by me from the first point of contact and subsequent visits. So I was very disappointed how this could happen. A 3rd technician was arranged to visit and check the curtains and measurements, he confirmed too short, he said this was a manufacturing fault with their factory in China. The curtains would be remade in China and would take another 6 weeks. The replacement curtains arrived in November but this time to my dismay the reverse pleats had been made incorrectly, now also with less curtain runners reduced to just 30, so did not flow as well as the previous supplied short curtains. I was told by the fitter on site after he made a call to H/O that yes they had made a mistake so the reverse pleats would be altered to match my original order and that it would take just 2 weeks as this time the curtains did not need to be sent back to China. Alterations would be completed in Brisbane. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. After 2 weeks had passed I hadn’t heard anything where were my curtains? so I tried to call Curtain Wonderland H/O and sent emails no response until later in December 2024. CUSTOMER SERVICE REACHED A NEW LOW when I received an email from a Curtain Wonderland:Kresta employee. who mistakenly included me in an internal email thread where baseless assumptions were made about my role in the issues. This incident not only exposed his employee’s incompetence but underscored a systemic problem with the accountability and professionalism in Curtain Wonderland. More documents I have if needed will legally support my claim as to how rude this employee actually is. Unacceptable and not tolerated. UPDATE MAY 2025. I have sent regular emails since December Radio Silence … until February I finally managed to speak to another lady at H/O who was refreshingly apologetic for all the delays and inconvenience this experience has caused me. She told me she would investigate and respond with an update, but sadly 3 weeks passed I heard nothing. I finally managed to speak to her again early March she gave me the same apologetic response and seemed to have no recollection of our previous conversation, so I’m assuming she put no notes in their system. She just advised me this time to contact Customer Services which is their office! I have tried unsuccessfully to get a contact for the CEO all email /phone numbers for him are invalid and HO in QLd claim they have no contact details for him either under Curtain Wonderland or Kresta which are both owned by the same businessman. It’s time consuming, stressful and has caused me unnecessary anxiety and personal cost to replace. Curtain Wonderland Customer Contract states “Goods come with a guarantee that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund “ neither have been forthcoming. UPDATE MAY 8 2025. I have been in touch with reception who have tried twice in April to get a response for me, without success.. The Short Curtains supplied are not fit for the purpose. I have exhausted all avenues. I’m now following the conditions under the warranty to instigate a return for a full refund as advised but even the store apparently cannot get a response from Head Office as to the procedure to now make the return and refund. I will update the outcome and hope Curtain Wonderland do the right thing and actually honour their Customer warranty. UPDATE JUNE 2025 Blatant that no actual refund will be given. I actually placed the first order on 17/10/2023 18 months without the curtains another saga but this complaint is based on the second order. I just wanted now a full refund but CW were adamant they will not refund they will again remake and offer compensation but all I’m offered is a store credit not in my favour at all as I have no use for it . I already overpaid them by $302 on the second order. So it doesn’t even cover that. Although the lady I’m now dealing with is sympathetic to all the setbacks I have endured she can’t help me. My replacement curtains are expected next week. As Curtain Wonderland are refusing to give me any monetary refund for the sheer lack of accountability and time nearly 2 years without the curtains I ordered in good faith creating unnecessary stress and a good portion of my personal time just to achieve what I rightly paid for. JULY 2025 I lodged my complaint with The Office of Fair Trading. Finally a reaction from Curtain Wonderland they then insisted they send out another technician to measure and remake the curtains and get them made by express. This guy seemed very knowledgeable and returned to check and fit the curtains , this time were made correctly, but Curtain Wonderland have refused to even refund or compensate the extra I paid instead fobbing me off with a credit voucher which is useless to me but they know also that The Office Of Fair Trading cannot enforce them to do anything though OFT can advise on further legal action this will likely be further costs so hence why Curtain Wonderland do not care. Who has the time? it’s soo stressful It has taken me 2 years to get the curtains I ordered. The worst company by far I have ever had to deal with. My advice always read reviews on various sites some are not what they appear to be. Don’t be fooled by company Jargon. Unfortunately I cannot recommend Curtain Wonderland/ Kresta based on my very unfortunate experience.
Woeful Customer Service from Capalaba Store – Just before Christmas, I ordered curtains from Curtain Wonderland. Their measurer did the quote and I felt she was very knowledgeable. We paid an extra $800 to have them installed before Christmas and they were. However there is a problem with the installation and I have phoned them several times (again today) and even visited the store twice in… Read more
the hope of getting it rectified. Each time they have said that they would get their rep/measurer to contact me and has she .. that would be a big fat "NO". I can't fix the problem myself, if I could I would. Their after sales service is pretty much non-existent. Would I recommend them ... no.!

Poor Customer Service – If I could leave no stars I would. I bought a curtain from Curtain Wonderland Jindalee. Got it home and put it up to discover it was shorter than I was told and had marks on it. Took it back and was told they wouldn't refund me as it had marks and dog hair on it. Complete waste of money.
Good customer service and good price – The lady and the boy always very polite and helpful. Lots of discount and sincere suggestions. We kept coming back for more curtains and other stuff. Once again thank you very much and see you again soon.
Please read before you order from curtain wonderland – Horrible customer service. They didn't send a few items. So, I tried to contact thru email and phone but they didn't respond. I tried many many times. I strongly do not recommend Cutain wonderland.
Poor Service – Received wrong size curtain. Despite returning goods, an email and several calls, still haven’t received any response. They never answer the phone.
Poor communication, Poor attitude – I am return customer to Curtain Wonderland. I fully paid for my curtains and blinds. To get them installed, I had to follow up by multiple phone calls as it took way longer than the time I was advised when I ordered the product. I rang head office multiple time for installation and left messages, no one answers the call or returns calls till… Read more
the branch staff contacted Pita.
Blind install - H/O told branch the installer will be in from 1-3pm and I was told 10am -2pm - Inconsistent information. The manner of approach from head office team m and installer was as if they doing me a favor. I was told the installer will arrive between 10am-2pm. Installer( Fitter: Xuan Liu) messages me at 2.42pm and arrived at 3.30pm after I made numerous calls and sent an email. I called head office after 2pm, they did not answer or responded to me email until branch rang her/Pita. She claimed she does not follow with installer and another staff Anette finishes at 1pm so no one answers her call.( how am i supposed to know), 13 number was engaged for few hours that afternoon. Installer who installed the roller blinds on 30/9/24 - contacted me late(2.42pm) and arrived(3.30pm) after allocated time and had an attitude and very rude. Claimed it is not his problem that he is late. He kept threatening to leave the job when I approached him that I have been waiting from 10-2pm and if he could have informed me that he was running late and I could have done other chores of my day. I also lodged a complaint to the company in writing of my experience.
For the curtain instalment - I was still waiting for curtains - Peta and Annette's both gave me 2 different answers - poor communication. Afterwards, I kept contacting them and no one answered the calls. I got frustrated so as I had been waiting for curtains for a long time. I rang office and also sent email and lodged complaint with 3rd party then Peta rang and arranged for installing of curtain straightway and then, 30mins later I received call from Kim doing the same. Kim was dictate, talking over me, did not let me speak or negotiate time and she was very abrupt and then hang up on me.
I hope Curtain Wonderland records these phone calls so they can be exposed. She was very unprofessional. From being a regular customer to Curtain Wonderland, this experience has been very unfriendly, poor customer service and communication style to customer was dictate, as if they doing favor. They forget that we paid for the job and service.
They got my money and then was not ready to understand that we all work and negotiate for time for installing, customer has to follow up to get job done, dictate, hanging the phone on customer, failing to inform customer if they running late, they feel they doing favors for customers.
I give 1 star and would not recommend Curtain Wonderland.

be installed. Fourteen weeks later and more than six visits by the installers I was advised that unless I purchased a track from them, they would not be able to complete the job (This was going to cost me an extra $200). "MONEY UP FRONT" My first phone call from head office was WHY did I send the curtain installers away? my reply was "I didn't send them away", I was told the job couldn't be completed due to incorrect track fittings that were ordered. New fittings arrived and they returned to finished the job however after completion, the bay window curtain was overhanging by 2 plus inches "60mm" on the right side (looked terrible). They returned a couple more times to try and rectify it, but it was quite obvious they had no idea on how to fix it. I tried to tell them to replace my old curtain track that they removed and place it in the front of the new curtain they had fitted and this would fix the problem, but they refused to do this and insisted that I was to purchase another track "MONEY UP FRONT" and this would fix the problem. I refused to pay any more money. After the curtain fitters left, I decided to go through with what I thought would work and sure enough it did. I've had NO experience in curtain fitting however within 15 minutes of them leaving for the final time "job done". NO PROBLEMS Shame on you Curtain Wonderland. P.S. Tell your sales reps to empty their phone mailbox or maybe that another excuse not to receive customer complaints. Terrible service.
Great for selection of blinds – Great selection of different sizes of blinds, we couldn't get the size we needed elsewhere without ordering as custom-made. Prompt delivery. The size, and type were exactly what I was after so I am very happy. Show details
MacGregor Store review – I just dropped into the MacGregor store to get some advice about replacing my curtains at home, and the lady that served me was amazing. She explained everything very clearly and was happy to answer any question I had. I would highly recommend Show details
