After reading sooo many negative reviews, we were afraid to receive our order
After reading sooooo many horrible reviews, we were honestly afraid that we were about to experience the exact same! Even more so because we had ordered our Rafiki Bench Mango Wood on November 30 2020, told we would be receiving it mid March 2021, called early March to double check was still on track, only to be told not quite sure when you will receive it, called a second time and was now told it would be May!!! Naturally I was alarmed cause numerous negative reviews had two commonalities: extremely late deliveries and the received product tur...
Read morening out to be of inferior quality, so I kindly and firmly demanded that my inquiry be escalated as their Call Centre Staff were extremely unhelpful. I find that when Australian companies have overseas call centres, A LOT gets lost in translation, but apologies as I digress (that's a whole other story, lol). Anyways I was then contacted by Charini who was professional and lovely, confirmed my bench was now arriving at it's original time frame of mid March (so not sure why I was advised otherwise previously), and I also stressed to her that I had read numerous reviews where customers were receiving inferior products, and would be returning mine back if likewise! But luckily i can say that our Rafiki Bench Mango Wood is exactly as per the pictures, we absolutely love it (we are waiting on a custom made cushion for it to arrive), and will then fit perfectly in our hallway! Now to conclude, my partner and I thought that maybe we were just lucky with our order, maybe Koala Living has now improved their quality control, or maybe cause we stressed to Charini that we were aware of negative reviews, and stressed would return our bench etc, maybe she made sure our order was 100% satisfactory before it left their warehouse. Who knows, but all we can say is that credit must be given where it's due and are extremely happy with our purchase.AnudiniGreater Melbourne (Outer), VIC
It was worth the wait!
We ordered dining table and chairs online. Had to wait for about more than 2 months for the products to arrive. The online team coordinated very well with arranging our delivery. The wait was well worth it. We love our new dining table!

Good quality product and customer service
Yes the wait was long, but it’s well worth it for a good quality product!
I heard rummers that KL may be cheap quality stuff, however after seeing what was inside the couch coupled with an awesome contractor I was very impressed! Such a solid, attractive and supportive couch. Quality is like night and day compared to our couch from Amart.
Customer service was able to help me with additional tweaks. Couldn’t be happier.

Love the paintings
I purchased this painting which is huge and amazing value for money. Everyone stops and comments on it. I just purchased another but yet to hang.
I ordered with click and collect.
When I heard about free delivery promo, I called head office and they agreed to courier free of charge.
Took a couple of weeks but everything is slow in the post now.
Highly recommend.

Fantastic service and advice
After discovering Koala Living online, I used their virtual consultation process which was fantastic and very easy. Nidhi is awesome. She went through our rooms that needed styling and discussed ideas we liked/ did not like. She was also very patient with my multiple questions and product combinations and provided practical advice on which items worked well together versus did not. She sent me images of product positioned together so I could see how they worked. In the end, we ordered 6 dining chairs, a sofa, ottoman and 2 feature chairs. Quality was beautiful when they arrived. All we needed to do was attach the legs. We are very happy with our purchases from Koala Living and would not hesitate to buy again.

Great Service!
I would like to express my gratitude towards the online contact and Southland Store Manager Amanda. She went out of her way to help me choose items for my home and provided amazing support. We first spoke over the online chat and then I met her in store. I genuinely cannot thank you enough – Thanks Amanda!

Gorgeous Products, Excellent Customer Service
Beautiful range of products and pretty good value during the big sales, so much so that I've probably bought majority of my furniture and decor from here. Trying to get through customer service team via phone can be a bit hard at times but twice now I've been lucky enough to get through to Amanda who is an absolute star! She answered my countless questions and helped merge my orders/deliveries all while being friendly and a real pleasure to deal with!! I'm looking forward to seeing all my products when they arrive :) Thanks Koala Living.

I just want to say thank you for the amazing customer service, I am very happy with how everything was handled, the delivery boys were very helpful, they made me check each chair to see if it was in good condition, they unpacked the chairs and put them together, they also took all the boxes with them, thank you so much.

Clara three seater sofa
One of the best furniture store. We have got so much from them for our new house. Fantastic quality and unique designs. Our sofa is easy to care for and looks so stylish and best part it does not burn a hole in your pocket. The customer service is a delight. They even keep your product in the warehouse for upto 6 months at no extra cost this was such a piece of mind as we were building our house and could now get delivery in the new place. Absolutely stunning.

Unique in the market
Unique and elegant furniture and pieces, exceptional service, friendly staffs, on time delivery. I can’t find such a unique pieces with this price in the market. Theirs ETA is what they mention. They follow up several times before a delivery. Assembly is also included which is a big relief for me. Highly recommended

I've called numerous times and email you twice to get an update on couple of orders I placed in March.
Based on the latest reviews here I can see there are a number of people unhappy with delivery delays and lack of communication, so I guess I have to join the choir!
Can you please provide me with a status update on orders 20-00011920 and 20-00012241?
P.s.: You can keep your customers a lot happier if you proactively contact them with order updates, avoidance is just the worse thing you can do for you business.

Anoop Rasked
Hello Koala living. I've been trying to reach the online store re my purchase #1000003376 (paid on 12th April). During check out, the eta that was provided was 16 May. This has now been pushed to end of July that too without any notice. I was happy to buy this lounge as the waiting period was only about a month. If you are unable to fast track my order, please advise if you could cancel this and return my money?
Email seems to be the only way to reach the online store. I've tried to ring numerous times, only to be hung up saying they do not have access to online orders.
I need a lounge urgently for my home office, so please I hope you understand.

Hi Anoop,
We sincerely apologise that your order has been pushed until July. Like many other retail brands, we have experienced delays in our shipments due to the global pandemic and the dates that our staff members provide are estimated times of arrival, hence they are subject to change and are not set in stone. We have provided you with a refund and we would appreciate it if you would revise your review.
Thank you,
The Koala Living Team
They are just terrible! Do not buy from them. you are lucky that you can cancel your order, customer service is just a joke for them.
Terrible, don't trust them they will not refund your money (mine too) and i asked Fair trading to help me to get the refund back, still waiting answer from fair trading officer.
