[Resolved]  Godrej Interio — Poor quality chairs sold by the company

Address:Dakshinapan Shopping Complex, Kolkata

I have purchased entire set of furniture costing ₹1, 12, 726/- from Godrej Interio, Dhakuria, Kolkata on 22.10.16 for new flat purchased by my daughter Paulami Bhattacharjee. I have also got the the modular kitchen done in her flat through your authored franchise Rajni &. Co., 74, Despran Sasmal Road, Kolkata 700033 as per agreement signed on 28.09.2016 for which I paid ₹1, 06, 449/-. Such is my trust in Godrej products.

The flat remained unused for unused for about four years which was cleaned periodically. While cleaning I noticed some black particles like soot on the floor. On inspection I found the clothes underneath the chairs was giving off. That was before the flat was occupied.

The flat was occupied in July, 2020 which may be verified from other residents of the building K. B. L. Tower, 26A. Charu Chandra Avenue, Kolkata 700033. Unfortunately after some days the foam seat at the base and back of Radiance chairs (4 nos. Costing ₹17, 478/-) started peeling off. Even the metal understructure is getting bent.

It is true that the product has warranty for one year but I could not fathom how the company that claims that its products are durable and long lasting is selling such a poor quality product to the customers who trust them.

I have lodged a complaint by mail to [protected]@godrej.com on 13.11.2020 requesting repair of the chairs. I attached the pictures of the chairs and the invoice. They have written back to inform me that that warranty has expired. Repairing can be done on chargeable basis. They will inspect for which ₹400/- to be paid and then will repair if I agree to the quotation they will send for materials and repair.

Question is why should I spend money for repair of the chairs of poor quality which the company Godrej is selling to the costomers who repose trust in the company.

I fear that repair with the same poor quality material will invite recurring problem. Am I expected to get the chairs repaired every six months or one year. The chairs are not cheap. Each chair costs ₹4400/- approx.

I would request you kindly to replace the chairs with another set of 4 chairs of good quality. I will pay the difference of price.

Almost a month is over, I am still waiting for any positive response from Consumer complaints.in customer service. I reiterate that very poor quality chairs were sold by Godrej Interio, Dhakuria, kolkata pictures of which along with details was mentioned in my mail dated 16.11.20. Brief datails with pictures were also posted from my twitter account. Although favoured with prompt response vide your mail dated 16.11.20 from support@https://www.consumercomplaints.in no further communication in this matter has been received by me till this date.

Is it the price a loyal customer has to pay who repose trust in your brand. I purchased entire furniture from the same outlet for my flat way back in 1986 for my new flat and gifted all the furniture during my daughter's marriage in 1984. Even now I can give all details of purchase if you ask for.

Unfortunately this time around when I purchased further for my daughter's new flat I felt cheated. I admire the ability of your astute sales person to convince unsuspecting person like me promising delivery of high quality chairs. This has definitely eroded my trust in your company which has huge brand value.

I request once again to replace the 4 chairs with good quality chairs on offer. I am ready to pay difference of price.
