Media from reviews
The poorest customer service I have ever received, don't buy if warrantied by them.
I don't often leave reviews unless something stands out as really good or really bad, in the case of True Innovations unfortunately it is really bad. I purchased a chair from ***** that was supposed to be warrantied by True Innovations.They have erroneously stated denials and lies from the start:A rubber mount for the center back of the pivoting section in the chair broke.
I provided pictures and a proof of purchase.-they stated there is no coverage as it is only a year warranty, Denied at first, I had to provide documentation from ***** showing the 2 year warranty -then they stated the part is not available I would have to wait -then they canceled the request -then they reinstated the order, and asked me to wait -then they sent me an invoice to Pay for the part.-then they stated it is not in stock and I need to wait.-then they stated as a good gesture they would refund me my purchase price by check and to please wait another 4-6 weeks -I STILL waited another 8 weeks - then they stated -there will be No refund, they would send me the part instead -then they stated, sorry its no longer under warranty and the claim is denied, as it is an upholstery issue, not covered, when it is not, it is the rubber mount!This has been going on for 6 months now.One last time I explained the issue from the start and the difficulty with the claim, they said they would respond within 24 hours, its been 5 days now and nothing, the chair is still within the 2 year warranty period and I have not had the proper use of this chair these last 6 months. So I will be providing ***** with full documentation of this mess up and expect a full refund at this stage.I am not sure I can believe anything True Innovations state anymore and in the future I will be avoiding purchasing anything that uses True innovations as their warranty company and I would go so far as to warn you to stay away as well.
User's recommendation: If you want warranty protection, buy something else.

Verified ReviewerMissing parts sent right away
I was missing hardware for a desk chair, and one box had two right-side covers. Immediately, Brenna took care of it. I am not sure how long it will take to get the parts, but they have been very responsive thus far.
- Corrected issue asap
- Missing parts-but chairs not made there only shipped from there
Preferred solution: Parts sent
I have been completely unsuccessful in obtaining assistance from True Innovations customer service staffer Erika Ortega despite having sent her in TWO different times the receipt for the office chair
The left arm of the Lazyboy office chair I purchased keeps detaching from the chair body. I have sent Erika Ortega, senior customer service representative, a copy of my Staples receipt in TWO different occasions and she keeps asking for a receipt.
She put me on telephone HOLD while she sent me an email requesting the receipt again and never returned to the phone call. I have called Customer Service several times again and there is never a supervisor available.
These reps seem to only be able to read a company script without being able to use common sense. I paid $80.00 at Staple for an apparently useless guarantee.
Poor customer service, poor quality
Chair was good for a couple years, then needed an additional pad for the seat, arm pads started to crack and fall outward and wheels needed to be replaced. Upon emailing Customer Support (service@***.com) in June 2021, I have been told I would need to replace the entire set of arms.
However arms are not available for 6-8 weeks. I was told that in 2021, upon contact in 2022 told that again and once again, when I finally found a phone number, was verbally told this again here in 2023. You get the run-around till you are busy enough to go away. I keep trying to re-engage, but the same excuse again.
I will never buy from this manufacturer again. $300-$500 replacement chairs every couple years is their business plan for their customers.
- Chair is good for a couple years
- An additional pad is needed for seat
- After a couple years
- Chair wheels need to be replaced
Preferred solution: replacement arms for the Serta Hensley chair
User's recommendation: buy from another manufacturer

Verified Buyer | Central City, NebraskaBroken Chair
Sat down in the chair, and then the metal part on the bottom of the chair broke with a huge crack. The person sitting in it did not exceed the weight limit and the chair is not that old. Frankly, I paid good money for this chair and for it to do something like this is inexcusable.
Preferred solution: Replace the chair

Verified ReviewerBad quality of the product and customer service
Bought the office chair at Walmart for $200 CAD in Oct. But the chair is started making lots of noise and the gas lift is not working anymore.
I called them to provide and option to replace the chair with a better version of a different chair. Called the customer service and the girls over the phone are very rude, and they said True innovations won't replace the chair.
- Poor workmanship & the worst customer service
- Horrible customer service

Verified ReviewerExecutive chair
I purchased a Lazy Boy executive chair at Costco on August 18, 2019. I thought it sat funny but thought it was just me.
I didn't do anything about it. My daughter-in-law was at my office and set it in my chair and she said it sat lopsided. We checked it out and could not find anything wrong. We got a level to check it out and found out it was not level and the right side sat lower than the left side.
This is probably the reason why I have been having back problems. Is there some way you can help me fix this problem.

Verified ReviewerCustomer Service
I have sat on the phone for 2 hours without a response and filed 3 emails on their website without one response. They are a company to stay away from if you experience any product issues. My office chair was flawed and the seat cushion was horrible.
- Horrible customer service
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Office Depot is a big supplier of their product.
Poor Customer Service
A caster broke on my La-Z-Boy office chair, which I bought from Staples. It is less than two years old and shouldn't break, but they are cheaply made or thin plastic - I'm probably lucky it lasted this long.
I tried calling the customer service number and twice was on hold for over 30 minutes only to get a message saying they couldn't take my call right now, try again later. The third time I got a rep who was pleasant enough on the phone but since then, it's nothing but problems. She didn't know which caster I needed (even though I gave her the name and model number of the chair) and asked me to send pictures, which I did on 9/24. On 9/28, I got an email asking for my shipping address so that she could get me a final cost.
I answered immediately (seriously, 7 minutes after I got her email) ... and waited. Nothing. No return emails.
I emailed again on 10/2 asking if I could please get a cost to get them ordered, and on 10/5 I got an answer with the cost (didn't mention whether it was one wheel or all five, which I had asked about) and a snarky comment that I had to leave 24-48 business hours for an answer since she answered her emails in the other in which they are received. She either works part-time or gets a ton of emails, because her two emails have been 11 days apart. I'm sitting on a kitchen chair at my desk for 10-12 hours a day, all I want is to order a simple caster for my chair and who knows when I'll hear back. Plus, she said previously we'd have to arrange a time for her to call me because she couldn't take my credit card information until I was ready to order, so who knows when this order will actually happen!
This is a simple part and should be available on the website, but the only part that is listed is a base - which doens't even come with casters - and has no prices listed and no way to order except (you guessed it) to call customer service. This is horrible customer service.
La-Z-Boy USED to be a quality company. Now evidently they just don't care.
Preferred solution: I just want to be able to order my casters and get them shipped so I can use my chair again!
User's recommendation: RUN! If you ever need customer service, you will not get it.
Poor customer service
You get a lot of BS from the customer service. I order a gas lift and as of today NO gas lift has been shipped.
Talk to customer service you get the run around. The was purchase from Staples and Staples said you had to talk with True Innovations customer service.
I get I need to look for the part on the internet. Could not recommend Staples or True Innovations.
Terrible
I bought the Serta Office chair Model:49987. The chair is so low I have to raise my arms to type on computer.
I called the Customer support & they said I need to buy a longer gas lift & pay for it & shipping. I never knew that computer chairs would ever be so low.I don't know what desk it was made for.I can't take it back because my husband got rid of the box.There was nothing in paper work or on box that gave height of chair.The chair itself is comfortable but way too low.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
True Innovations Manager Chair
I purchased this chair so that I could enjoy my computer but instead I am sitting on the worst chair that I have ever sat in. I am 80 years old and my enjoyment is ruined because the chair is the most uncomfortable chair i have ever sat in.
The seat cushion is the hardest. I am sitting on the edge and almost falling off because it is so hard and causes me to slide down. I purchased my chair from Costco and went back and tried the one that is on display and it is so much more comfortable. I thought with time it would get soft but unfortunately it hasen't.
I wish i could take it back because I wasted $200.00 and have to live with it. I really don't know what can be done.
Maybe a new seat cushion might help. ITM./ART.200**** #49651 Seat Cushion X1 Purchased 01/07/2019 Costco St Charles, Il 60174

Same problem here. They must save $0.50 a chair by making it 4" too short. I want to send them my chiropractor bill as it has caused severe misalignment with my back.
