 AI reviews summary 

The overall sentiment for Fantastic Furniture is highly polarised. Customers frequently praise the in-store experience, citing helpful staff and the affordability of stylish, budget-friendly furniture. However, a significant number of recent reviews highlight a severe divide between physical retail and online operations, with the latter plagued by delivery failures, poor communication, and difficult refund processes.

Pros
Exceptional In-Store Service: Staff members at various branches are frequently commended for being professional, knowledgeable, and helpful without being pushy.
Value for Money: Products are consistently described as affordable and stylish, offering good aesthetic value for those on a budget.
Ease of Assembly: Many customers report that flat-pack items come with clear instructions and are relatively simple to put together, often requiring only basic tools.
Click and Collect Efficiency: The 60-minute click-and-collect service is praised for its speed and seamlessness when items are in stock.
Cons
Online and Delivery Failures: Significant recurring issues include items lost in transit, incorrect products being delivered, and couriers failing to follow delivery instructions or leaving heavy items in insecure locations.
Poor Post-Purchase Support: Customers frequently report "useless" AI chatbots, long wait times for phone support, and a lack of email responses when attempting to resolve order issues.
Difficult Refund and Return Policies: There are multiple complaints regarding the refusal to cancel orders shortly after placement and "unreasonable" refund requirements, such as demanding photos of destroyed products in bins.
Inconsistent Product Quality: Recurring reports of "flimsy" materials (chipboard splintering), missing parts, and structural failures (broken slats or sagging cushions) within a short timeframe.
Verdict

Fantastic Furniture is a reliable choice for budget-conscious shoppers who can visit a physical store to inspect quality and manage their own transport. Consumers are strongly cautioned against using the online store due to systemic issues with third-party couriers and a customer service department that often fails to resolve delivery or warranty disputes effectively.

Ordered a tv unit online. Half of it came. Was charged for an extra delivery when the first one never even came! And now Fantastic and ARAMEX have gone silent! A complete and utter scam.

Giving one star because I can’t give anything less. We found out that this was an artiss product only after it was delivered. We decided to assemble it only because it was too heavy and another mountain of a task to return ( two packages of 14 and 20 kilos). There were minor painting defects that we noted in a few patches, the assembly… Read more

instructions could have been better and after a tedious process of assembly, we find that the drawers do not shut nicely because the runners are not the right size. The drawers are very hard to keep into place and keep falling even with the slightest bit of touch. It is not that we have not assembled furniture before but we have never encountered any that was so badly made. I would not recommend at all. I paid $200 plus delivery from fantastic furniture for it but found out later that it was available for $150 and free delivery on amazon! So even after reading this review, you decide to buy this, please check a few websites tomfind the best price

Great little desk for a superb price! Order and pick up was seamless and the quality of the product is very pleasing. Drawer runners are more solid than some earlier Fantastic products I have bought and assembly instructions better, all hardware included with some additional spares which was great. Show details ·  1

Updated Review I gave Fantastic Furniture every opportunity to resolve this matter before updating my review, but unfortunately they failed to provide a fair outcome. From the beginning, this purchase was affected by repeated delivery delays, poor coordination, broken commitments, and a lack of communication. My husband and I had to take leave… Read more

from work on multiple occasions due to cancelled and rescheduled deliveries, and again during the warranty process.

The four-seater sofa developed a loud squeaking noise shortly after delivery. While Fantastic Furniture acknowledged the fault and offered a replacement or a refund for the faulty sofa, they refused to provide a fair solution for the matching two-seater, which was purchased together as part of the same set. The fact that the two sofas were delivered months apart was due to their own delays, not my choice.

This experience was not just about a faulty sofa. It was about poor product quality, poor coordination, broken promises, and disappointing after-sales service. After everything we have experienced, I have completely lost confidence in Fantastic Furniture and would not recommend purchasing from them.

Review: Extremely Disappointing Experience Regarding Order Fulfillment and Customer Service Rating: 1/5 Stars I am writing this review to document a deeply frustrating and unprofessional experience regarding a furniture purchase made on 17 May 2026. I ordered a three-seater chaise and a two-seater sofa online, for which I paid an additional… Read more

$90.00 for delivery. At the time of purchase, the company advertised a delivery timeline of four to five weeks.

As of today, 16 July 2026—two months post-purchase—I remain completely in the dark regarding the status of my order. Despite numerous attempts to resolve this, I have been met with a disorganized stream of communications from various individuals claiming to represent "management" under different aliases. Not a single one of these representatives has been able to provide a concrete delivery date or a clear explanation as to the whereabouts of my goods.

The communication process is fragmented and evasive. Most recently, I was told by these representatives that they "could not do anything" and that I must resolve the issue directly with the store. When the Cairns store manager finally contacted me, there was no apology for the significant delay, nor was there any accountability for the breach of the promised delivery timeframe. Instead of providing the goods I originally ordered, the manager attempted to upsell me on the same product in a different color at an inflated price, offering a "discount" that would still require me to pay an extra $188.00.

I should note that I have repeatedly informed the company of an urgent deadline: I am hosting guests traveling from Japan on 23 July, and I desperately require the furniture to accommodate them. Feeling backed into a corner by their lack of service, I agreed to the manager’s proposal in a desperate attempt to secure the furniture in time. I reached out to her asking for payment instructions and confirmation that delivery could be fulfilled this week. It is now Thursday, 16 July, and I have yet to receive a response.

This experience has been characterized by a blatant lack of care for the customer. It is alarming to encounter a business that, when in the wrong, avoids basic apologies, provides zero transparency, and attempts to extract further payment to fulfill an existing order that is already long overdue. The lack of clarity regarding whether this is a corporate-run entity or a poorly managed franchise only adds to the suspicion surrounding their business practices.

I would strongly advise potential customers to exercise extreme caution before ordering from this group. My experience suggests that once they have your money, the promised timelines and customer service standards vanish entirely. I am currently left without furniture, without a delivery date, and with a company that appears entirely indifferent to my plight.

expected much better after-sales service, but unfortunately, the customer support was unhelpful and unresponsive. I would not recommend buying from this company based on my experience.

I purchased a $2500 couch that arrived damaged. 2 weeks later and I still have the damaged couch sitting in my house. I have to go have surgery tomorrow (breast cancer) and am required to have a bed setup in my lounge room which can not happen. I have not been able to use my lounge/dining area for 2 weeks (school holidays) which has been quite… Read more

hard especially as I am a single mum with a very full on 7 year old (adhd). Fantastic furniture are aware of this. They couldn't care less that I have to come home from surgery with no bed and unable to use my living areas. The couch needs to be gone. I don't mind if I receive another couch or refund but regardless of that this couch is theirs and needs to be picked up. They have to pay to store their couch so they are also getting free storage. Absolutely disgusted.

Update: contacted my local mp & wasn't able to obtain any assistance. Contacted the ceo with absolutely no response. Contacted marion store and finally the couch has been collected. Very impressed with service at marion (they cleaned up noarlunga's mess) extremely disgusted with the lack of service from head office & noarlunga.
