The products are very good but delivery is very expensive and needs to be fixed.also should give special discount for cash sales as you dont pay tax so that customer will also don’t charge tax on cash sales . Show details
Finally had time to write this review after an extremely disappointing experience with their customer service and delivery process. They initially delivered the wrong sofa piece and advised that the correct item would only be re-delivered one month later, at which time the incorrect piece would be collected. Throughout this entire process there… Read more
was no apology, no accountability, and no mention of compensation for their mistake. One month later after multiple follow-ups from us they finally arranged a pickup. However the delivery team arrived only to collect the incorrect item and were not informed that they were also meant to deliver the replacement. We had to contact the company again to fix yet another mistake and once again received no apology, only dismissive and indifferent responses, as though we were simply expected to accept the inconvenience. During this entire month their st^pid wrong sofa piece, which was huge and extremely chunky, was left sitting inside our brand new home, taking up space, getting in the way of moving in and furnishing, and causing constant inconvenience. It felt like they were happily using our new build as their free warehouse storage while we dealt with the mess, disruption, and stress. After weeks of frustration they finally delivered the correct piece. Their only so-called compensation was free assembly, which in reality was just screwing the metal legs onto the sofa. Hardly meaningful compensation for over a month of delay, inconvenience, disruption, and loss of enjoyment. This entire situation completely ruined the excitement of receiving our new sofa for our new home build, caused unnecessary chaos during Christmas preparations, and left us extremely disappointed. For a company that positions itself as a premium Australian brand, the level of customer service is unacceptable. If you want to justify your price point, fix your logistics, take responsibility for your mistakes, and treat customers with basic respect.

Amazing Artworks – We went to look at some paintings and Koala Living have some amazing art works. After going to many stores we found the right one. Customer service was great. Did not have to wait for a sales person, always there to help.
Worst customer service and products attach is photos of products that refuse to return all 6 dining chair have ripped from bad stitching in the same area I had to deal with mark who is absolutely horrible and my sofas have discoloured so not purchase from them !!!!!!

Disappointed with Quality and Misleading Warranty Information. I purchased full package furniture costing over $10,000 and the coffee and entertainment unit cracked and chipped. It’s only been 2 years. Unfortunately, when I contacted Koala support about the crack since my furniture was under warranty they rejected me twice. I felt misled the… Read more
experience left me frustrated. I expected better transparency and coverage from a brand like Koala.
I don’t recommend their furniture nor their services extremely disappointed.

We purchased several items from Koala Living and it's been a terrible experience from the moment it arrived. Couches were dirty on arrival Wooden frame was partially broken during attempted setup Walls and doors scratched by delivery team Setup was left incomplete We reported everything immediately after delivery on April 19th. Since then, we’ve… Read more
had more than 50 emails with their customer service. First we had to wait for a replacement part for the broken frame. Now we’re still waiting for someone to clean the couch, but they keep stalling — the latest excuse being a sudden price increase from the cleaning specialist.
It’s been seven weeks and counting, and we’re still chasing basic resolution. Koala Living’s after-sales support has been slow, evasive, and deeply unprofessional. We spent over $8k with that mob and what we got was a complete letdown.
Our next step would be raising a case with Fair Trading. I would not recommend Koala Living to anyone looking for quality products or reliable service.

Negative reviews
Misleading sales practices and terrible customer service. After more than 4 months and two failed sofa deliveries, we were left without a resolution despite following Koala’s own advice and providing all measurements and photos. Customer service is almost impossible to reach — phones go unanswered, call backs never happen, and emails go in… Read more
circles. Instead of owning up to their mistakes, Koala tries to blame the customer and charge a 30% cancellation fee.
We eventually bought from another company who did proper checks and delivered smoothly. Koala wasted our time, money, and caused months of stress.
We are now forced to escalate this to Fair Trading NSW, especially given Koala Living has previously been fined for misleading conduct by regulators.
The customer support and delivery service is pathetic. They charge for deluxe delivery and do not deliver anything on time and would not show flexibility to deliver items based on customers availability. You can't speak to store directly and each time call 1300 line to get an update. Beware of buying anything from Koala Living, so you don't have to regret Show details

Sales rep aditya in auburn did a great service and served us really well. Product in koala are pretty good but there is uncertainty and no proper guarantee for delivery times which causes a bit of stress for us . Show details
Aditya served us and really helped us with the style and fabrics that were available. He was patient and enable us to take our time to ensure a successful purchase. We have never shopped at Koala before but we’re really impressed with the items on offer and the price. We’ll definitely shop here again and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this store to friends and family.
Samantha was very helpful and friendly. She explained everything clearly and helped me choose the perfect bed and mattress. The service was excellent, and I’m really happy with my purchase. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for quality products and great customer care.
