[Resolved]  Evok Furniture — Extremely disappointed with the Quality of the Product - Need replacement

Address: Ernakulam, Kerala

This is with immense pain and agony that I am writing this email. I purchased Mason sofa 3+2+1 on January 19th, 2013. Please find the commodity details below:invoice number: 2013RI/12-13/00472Date: January 19, 2013Customer Name: Smaran ThomasCommodity code number: IT00025257Commodity item: Mason sofa 3+2+1 seaterPrice: 71, 928.00 INRfrom the store Evok Mega Homestore, Kochi on the above said date. The item was delivered within 5-7 days and this was to our new renovated home. Even before the completion of one year, the leather material on the sofa was getting peeled off automatically and was forming cracks all over. The cloth like material at the bottom of the sofa came out withered automatically. We had complained several times at the store and did not get any proper response. As usual, becoz of the lack of time in hand, by the time we went to store wit our complaint, it seems it was one month past our warranty period, which is one year. and it seems, nothing can be done.This is very much disappointing that such a costly product from Evok will be such a poor condition as soon as within one year? Is this something you do planned?We need justice to the hard earned money we have given you to purchase this Sofa set. Even after continued visits to Evok store and phone calls to store manager, we have not got any response to rectify this. We need a solution to this problem by getting the Sofa set replaced. Please understand that, we feel very bad to have this sofa set in such an ugly state right in front hall.We request you to understand your consumer/customer and do the necessary arrangements.P.S: We have bought several other items from Evok at the same time. We are living in fear when these items get withered out suddenly. To be frank, all the good name that had been created by Evok is getting spoiled with such a poor quality things which you sell.Thank You, Smaran Thomas

Dear Sanchai, Thank you for the response and the helping intent. With all due respect, thank you for allowing us to ENJOY the Evok product exactly just one year only and which, as soon as the warranty got over we were not able to.Please
clarify, on a sofa like Mason ( I presume you know the product and its
design), when you say 'warranty against manufacturing defect', and the
upholstery is not covered, what else is covered? What else is visible
or is prominent in a Mason sofa?The sofa material
started withering as early as an year after purchase and you can see
the condition now from the attached picture. Is this the quality of
products that you sell to your customer? Can you imagine how and what do
we feel buying this item from Evok?Just
to know, what will be the average cost that you charge to replace the
upholstery for this sofa wherever the upholstery has to be replaced?

There is no point in addressing this issue by a paid service done by us. This is injustice. This is very much disappointing that such a costly product from Evok will be such a poor condition as soon as within one year?
