Temple & Webster generally receives positive feedback for its extensive product variety, competitive pricing, and user-friendly digital interface. While many users report fast delivery and products that match online descriptions, a subset of customers has experienced significant difficulties regarding post-purchase support, particularly with third-party couriers and automated communication channels.
Pros
Cons
Verdict
Temple & Webster is a reliable option for budget-conscious shoppers looking for stylish, accurately described furniture with a smooth front-end purchase experience. However, consumers should be aware that resolving delivery mishaps or product defects may require persistent follow-up through their digital support channels.
Temple and Webster lie to customers to cover up their own incompetence at handling orders and place blame on third parties thinking that consumers won’t look into their false claims themselves. An order I placed had not changed status for over 3 weeks. The initial person I spoke with kept sending me screen shots of the current website with no… Read more
explanation and then asking ‘are you willing to wait?’ Essentially attempting to explain that they had no stock and that it wouldn’t be shipped for a further 3 weeks. However they also admitted that there were 8 items available in the country. I explained my order was placed 3 weeks ago so by their own admission I should receive one of the available items. A week later 2/3 boxes arrived. When I enquired where the missing box was, they said that their courier company had lost it and were unable to locate it. As a result I’d have to wait 3-4 more weeks before a replacement part was available. I ordered a bed. And it was the core part of the bed that was missing. I reached out to the courier who explained they were only provided 2 boxes. Temple and Webster directly lied in order to place blame for their incompetence. Countless emails and weeks waiting. Hopefully the replacement part will show up soon and my daughter can stop sleeping on the floor
Temple & Webster: Reliable and prompt delivery. Lots of choice. Great prices. Great customer service. Completely satisfied with the coffee table and linen sheets that I ordered. Would recommend using this online store. I had no problems whatsoever. Show details
Terrible service and a low quality product. I paid 1,304 for a shaving cabinet and the light stopped after a few days. The organisation has largely ignored me then made empty offers. Very disappointing, after reviewing on this site the matter was swiftly resolved. I thought it was swiftly resolved only to be further disappointed by temple and… Read more
Webster as they said they do an instant refund over the phone then delayed the process further. They then started pressuring and delaying further. Shocking customer service. Please note the email from the supplier in the pictures.

I was thrilled to find the perfect size dining suite for our small kitchen at Temple and Webster, unfortunately the box was damaged during transit, the driver informed me to report a damage claim if it was damaged inside once it was opened, (there was a deep scratch on the table) he also submitted a report. I followed the online prompts and was… Read more · 1
answered quickly, it was completely sorted out in a couple of hours, I was offered a full refund or replacement, which I took, and our replacement arrived in under a week. From the time I placed my order til the box arrived I was kept updated on its progress and estimated time of delivery. I highly recommend Temple and Webster to anyone wanting to buy from an honest reputable company.
Noosa 2 drawer shoe storage. Very happy with purchase. Sturdy enough to sit on. But it did take 3 hours to put together. Delivery was quick and communication was very good. Show reply

This winter quilt is Australian Made and Owned by a longstanding family business. We are so impressed by the comfort and assured by the OEKO-Tex Certification which is incredibly important. We sleep rest assured we are enveloped by a quilt which is clean and safe against our skin knowing we're not in contact with chemicals that harm us. These… Read more · 1
should be the only quilts sold in my humble opinion. In terms of warmth there's no comparison to doonas we've previously owned as no air pockets and naturally regulates your body temperature. Perfect for Melbourne winters! You won't need a blanket underneath at all. It's beautiful and we bought one for my elderly Mum too. She loves it! Thank you to Woolstar! What a wonderful company and to know it's all Australian and supporting our farmers and our nations natural product of wool which we're renowned for!
Great Rupert desk and leather office chair. Easy to assemble and fitted into the allocated spot . Probably will take off arm rails as just fits snugly . Thankyou Show details · 1
Very happy with this beautfiul green marble table lamp. The marble base is solid, heavy and feels like a quality piece. In my opinion, the substantial base would have suited a slightly larger shade for better proportions in saying that it looks stunning on my console table and adds a sophisticated touch. I just need a globe before I can see it… Read more · 1
lit up, but based on the quality and appearance I'm already delighted with my purchase. Delivery was fast and the lamp was packaged exceptionally well arriving in perfect condition. Overall, a very successful purchase from Temple & Webster.

I bought a beautiful Hamptons Large Sideboard Buffet. But what a nightmare to put together. Got a cracked piece of timber & waited 2 weeks for a replacement box. But they sent the wrong box so waited another 2 weeks for the correct box. But it’s still difficult to put together. If screws are not in the exact correct place then the cam nuts… Read more
won’t work. I ended up paying someone to finish it for me as it was way too stressful & time consuming. Have never had this problem with other companies flat packs. Screws usually just screw into the correct depth/length. But I do love my sideboard. It’s a beautiful cabinet.
I bought $69 cushions from them equivalent to kmart or even shein quality. Absolutely rubbish quality. I used it for one day already pilling! Overpriced products, poor quality, and when you seek a refund they dismiss it! On chat they just go offline amidst conversation and email responses just brush you off. You will not get anything back they will rip you off!
I have repeatedly unsubscribed and they continue to spam. Try to get human support - none. Will never buy from them. After this review I was privately messaged offering assistance. I provided the email addresses I want unsubscribed, was assured they would be removed from marketing, then received another marketing email the next day! I believe the… Read more
inability to unsubscribe breaks Australian marketing laws? So incredibly p@%!ed off with this company

We purchased a floating wall unit 14 months ago, it has sagged in the middle. After contacting them they more or less said, to bad its more than 12 months. Clearly poor quality items!
Temple and Webster were the only site that offered me what I was looking for. Good price and excellent service delivery without damage. Quality look and matches my chest of drawers I have also purchased. Thank you and I will be shopping with Temple and Webster as my first point of call. Paul. NOTE: When purchasing I still have credits left and would like them to either remain there or a refund please. Show details · 1
