Love it but I should have gotten a full size instead of a queen size. Doesn't quite fit the futon mattress I have.

Terrible customer service every time.

The customer service here is always subpar. Emails go unanswered for many business days. When I called I was given conflicting information. I was transferred to some random person who had no idea why I was sent to them. I’ve made 2 purchases for over $1000 each time and am always disappointed by the customer service. The mattresses and topper are nice. I love that they are chemical free.

We are working every day to better our customer experience. I will email this review to our customer service department so they are aware of this situation.

This futon mattress is exactly what we were looking for. We had previously lived in CA and had a futon like this one, but now living in FL, we have been unable to find a comparable mattress anywhere.
We love this for what the company uses as top materials and workman- ship, long lasting support and eco friendly fabrics. We are so happy we were able to purchase our 'favorite thing'.

The shiki futon is great

The shiki futon is great. I don't really have a lot to complain about. The first time I sent an email to customer service it got ignored, but I think it was because my header was wrong.

I would have appreciated being notified that the frame I was buying has Proposition 65 and formaldehyde statements on it. I was on the search for chemical free furniture, so this is a disappointment. Maybe it is on the Website but I didn't see it. I am very happy with the mattress but decided to go with another frame because of the statements. They don't take returns so I am going through the hassle of trying to sell it now. I did call and left a message that I had a question on the frame but not receive a call back.

Very sorry about the confusion and the delay in response. If you are unhappy with the frame we are more than happy to exchange per our terms and policies. As for the prop 65 and formaldehyde warning labels:
All of our furniture is formaldehyde free and prop 65 warning labels are required for most consumer products. If there is anything we can assist you with, please do not hesitate to email customerservice@thefutonshop.com and I will email that department this review so they are aware if you do decide to email for assistance.

Ordered a futon cover on line and it took 3 weeks to receive. The color was not what i hoped for and I did not like the fabric. I took the cover to the Concord store to return and was charged a restocking fee. I did order another cover while i was there. After 3 weeks i called to see when to expect it and they had not placed the order. I took another week to receive.
I did like the second cover and am keeping it.

I dropped into the Pleasant Hill showroom a few days ago and received excellent service from George . I ended up buying an organic latex mattress I custom designed for myself with George's patient help. Plus, I got a big discount. Thank you Futon Shop and thank you George.

strong, bad smell

I really wanted a natural, non-toxic mattress because my 8 month old baby will be sleeping on it. The mattress arrived with a very strong smell (smells like motor oil). It's been a week and the smell is still there. I'm not even using the mattress at the moment because of the smell. Also, 2 of the tufted stitches were already completely pulled loose when it arrived.

These dog beds are extremely well made

These dog beds are extremely well made. We wanted them for our dogs as we wanted beds that did not have flame retardant in them. The dogs seem to like them, so everything has worked out fine.
