Don’t get me wrong
Don’t get me wrong, we love your products! But these orders need to be on time rather than delayed not once but twice! If they got to me on time, you would have five stars but if you can’t deliver on time, then you need to find another solution besides a minor gift card.

Hi Antoinette,
We appreciate your feedback, and we completely understand your frustration. While we’re so glad to hear you love the products, we know that delays can be incredibly disappointing, especially when they happen more than once. Our team is actively reviewing our shipping processes to improve reliability and timeliness in hopes that we can ensure a more positive experience in the future!
Quality is good
Quality is good, linen is soft and cozy. It did take over a month to receive the quilt and had quite a bit of confusion in the whole process, which was frustrating when it said it was in stock upon ordering.

Hi Hannah,
We’re so glad to hear you’re enjoying the quality and feel of your new linen quilt! That said, we completely understand how frustrating the shipping confusion must have been, especially since the item was listed as ‘in stock’ at checkout. We truly appreciate your feedback, and we’re using it to actively improve our communication and stock visibility to make the ordering process smoother in the future. We hope that you’ll consider us again when the time comes to order a new set of linens!

If you need any additional support with your order or future purchases, please don’t hesitate to reach us directly at assistant@the-citizenry.com. We’d be glad to help!
Delayed shipping but everything is okay
After being concerned about the shipping delay which was longer than the original estimate, I was worried about what kind of quality I could expect; however, after several updates from the customer service rep Haryl R, who was helpful, honest, and professional throughout my ordeal, I’m more than satisfied with my experience. It also helps that the linen sheets I ordered are so soft and gorgeous.Big thanks to Haryl for turning a somewhat concerning experience into a positive one.

Hi Whitney,
We’re so happy to hear that Haryl was able to turn things around for you and provide such thoughtful support along the way! Delays can be frustrating, but it’s wonderful to know that the frequent updates and personalized care made your experience a positive one.
We also love that your new sheets are living up to the comfort and beauty you hoped for. Enjoy!
Every time I place and order it never…
Every time I place and order it never ships and then somehow goes on back order. Then once I ask to cancel it, it magically is being shipped out that week. Then you wait another week still no tracking. Then you email them back for the 11th time and somehow the tracking is available. Had the same experience both times I placed an order. Customer service is great. Fulfillment center not so much

Lindsay is the RUDEST of all the customer reps
Lindsay often writes the RUDEST responses and never offers a solution to their incompetent inventory struggles. Like how hard can it be, lol??? I’d love to see their refunds report. I bet it’s 60% of their revenue. Here’s a good one below...
Ordered rug in July, said it would ship early August, cancelled by Lindsay on 9/23.
“Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for reaching out. I’m so sorry for the confusion here. Unfortunately, your rug was oversold, and we weren’t able to secure additional inventory to fulfill your order. Because of this, we had to cancel the order and process a full refund back to your original payment method.
We apologize for the issue! Please let me know if I can help with anything else.
Very Best,
Lindsay

@Citizenry, your photoshoots, and marketing is beautiful but as you clearly know, your customer service is PATHETIC. Act like you’re trying harder?? Joke.
****UPDATE ON 9/25**** CITIZENRY'S RESONSE SAYS I OPTED FOR A REFUND. THIS IS FALSE!! BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!

Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the cancellation of your rug order and the frustration it caused. We recognize how disappointing it is to expect an item, only to have those plans disrupted, and that isn’t the experience we aim to provide for our customers.
Although our team has been working through inventory challenges, that doesn’t make up for the inconvenience or the lack of clear communication along the way, and we know that this falls short of the clarity and dependability our customers expect. Our teams are already working to improve inventory accuracy, so experiences like this don’t happen moving forward.
We understand that you opted for a refund this time around, but we’re thankful for the opportunity to earn your business, and would love a chance to improve your opinion of us in the future should you ever need our services again.
Similar to other poor reviews
Similar to other poor reviews, order placed on September 6, item showed as in stock and ready to ship. Their website says shipping / arrival in 6-9 business days. It's 9/24 and nothing, my order shows as placed but no updates regarding fulfillment or shipping. Email replies are polite but don't provide any real information. I just told the I want to cancel the order. Next step is a chargeback, which I don't want to but will. I was already concerned but after reading about all of the issues, even more so.
Update / Add: I received a prompt, professional and helpful response to my email requesting that my order be cancelled due to whatever was causing the lengthy delay in fulfillment. My order was cancelled and I have received notification of the pending refund. I am happy with the resolution. Still wish I had received the linen quilt I ordered but it was my call to cancel so I appreciate their response.

Waffle towels faded within 1 week
We received 2 sets of waffle towels for a Christmas gift, but were in the process of building a new home. I got out the towels to use and within the 1st few uses, it had already become discolored. I don't use any type of bleaching products and we have never had towels that have discolored within a week with other brands. Because we are outside our return window, there is nothing that can be done. Just disappointed that such an expensive product would be such a let down. We will go back to using our cheaper, yet better quality products in the future.

Hi Tiffany,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so sorry to hear that your waffle towels discolored so quickly, especially after being gifted something you expected to enjoy for years. That’s not the kind of quality or durability we want our products to deliver, and we completely understand your disappointment.
While we do see that your order is outside of our standard return window, we'd still love the chance to look into this more closely. If you're open to it, please reach out to us again directly at assistant@the-citizenry.com. Our Customer Experience team would be happy to review your case and explore whether there’s anything more we can do to help make this right!
Writing my second bad review this year
Writing my second bad review this year. They have a great product, but have been lying about the shipping date. Already 3 months delayed, and they have not sent any notification as to why. I am having to keep emailing customer service to get information. Very Very disappointed!

DO NOT ORDER
I placed an order with The Citizenry on August 23 for an Organic Cotton Gauze Duvet Set. At checkout, the product was advertised as in stock with a promised delivery of 6–9 business days. It’s now September 9 — 17 days later — and my order still shows “Preparing Shipment.”
Customer service told me on August 28 that the item would restock “by next week.” That date has passed with no shipment. I’ve followed up multiple times, but each time I receive vague, stalling replies with no confirmed ship date.
This is false advertising: I paid $230 for a product sold as in stock, with a delivery window the Citizenry could not meet. As a college student moving into my first apartment, I’ve now been left sleeping without bedding for over two weeks because of their misleading practices. I strongly caution others against purchasing from The Citizenry until they fix their fulfillment and customer service (unlikely now that the company has been bought out causing all these issues to turn a quick profit).

Hi Max,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so sorry to hear about the delay with your duvet set and the frustration it’s caused, especially during such an important time as moving into your first apartment. We understand how disappointing it must feel to expect your order within the promised delivery window and still be left without the bedding you purchased.
Unfortunately, this item oversold faster than anticipated, which created a gap between the “in stock” message you saw at checkout and the actual availability in our fulfillment system. That’s on us, and we completely acknowledge how it would feel misleading. While our team has been providing updates as we work through restocking, we recognize that those responses have not given you the clear answers you deserve.
We've sent you a request for additional information so we can review your order details and ensure you receive a resolution, whether that’s arranging a replacement or processing a refund. Once we hear back from you, please be on the lookout for additional email follow-up from a member of our Customer Experience team!
We’ve also passed your feedback along to our operations team so we can improve how we communicate real-time inventory and delivery expectations. If there is anything else we can do to improve your experience, please let us know.
Terrible Customer Service
I ordered a rug October 2024 to be delivered mid November 2024. Now I am told it will ship December 2025! Yes every 3-4 weeks when no shipping notice arrives I have to reach out to customer service and ask what’s up. Always it’s coming in 3-4 weeks. All sorts of excuses and platitudes. I’ve gotten a couple of 10-15% discounts. They took my money on October 2024!! I paid in full. And the rug is still listed for sale on their website. I just asked for a credit for the original price to use toward another rug, we will see what they say. But definitely will not be ordering from them again.

Hi Kirsten,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re so sorry for the repeated delays and the frustration of having to reach out multiple times without receiving the clarity or follow-through you deserved. Waiting this long after paying in full is understandably upsetting, and we recognize how discouraging it must feel to see the rug still listed online while your order remains unresolved.
That said, we’d love the chance to turn your experience around! It looks like you're currently in contact with a member of our Customer Experience team regarding this order, and I've asked them to follow up with you again. Be on the lookout for communication within the next business day!
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate your choosing to shop with us, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to make this right.
Fantastic customer service
It was a pleasure browsing the store on Crosby St in SoHo. When I found a bowl I loved, the associate brought the bowls in stock out so I could compare the natural stone markings. I was able to purchase the bowl that I liked most. I appreciated that the associate let me do this.

Linens nice, customer service awful
I Like The Citizenry and their products, but, I was very disappointed in the customer service. I ordered linens for a design job, a couple of sets, and they were pretty expensive. Because I was dealing with a lot of inventory for this job, when the box came, I peeked inside to make sure it looked correct, it did, and put the box aside. When I took the linens out at the job site, I realized that Citizenry had packed the wrong items. Instead of one duvet cover and two sheet sets, they sent me two duvet covers and one sheet set. They look identical in the packaging. So, I wrote and called Citizenry to ask if they would correct their error and they told me it was past the return date. I explained that I wasn't 'returning' the items, per se, I simply wanted Citizenry to correct the mistake, THEIR MISTAKE, and send me what I ordered and paid for. They said NO. I was actually flabbergasted! Here I am, a designer, with many jobs coming in the future, and they would not correct their OWN mistake. That kind of customer service turned me off so badly, the next job I had, I went local, and bought linens that I could return more easily. And, they lost all my business in the future.

Hi Rebecca,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re truly sorry that your order was packed incorrectly in the first place. That’s not the standard we hold ourselves to, and we understand how disruptive that must have been for your design project.
After you reached out, our team did offer to send replacements along with a return label for the incorrect item. We didn’t hear back with confirmation on how you’d like to proceed, which is why the replacement was never finalized. We’d still be happy to help make this right, however! If you could let us know your preference, we’ll get everything set up as quickly as possible.
We sincerely value your feedback and appreciate the opportunity to support you in your future projects. Please reach out to us directly at assistant@the-citizenry.com so we can continue this conversation and ensure you have the right pieces in hand!

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the confusion surrounding your order! Upon checking, it was confirmed that both pillows were shipped, just in separate packages. We’ve shared the tracking details with you via email, so the second one should be arriving very soon!
That said, we completely understand how it can be frustrating when items don’t arrive together, and we appreciate your patience while the final pillow makes its way to you. If there’s anything else you need in the meantime, our team is always here to help!

Worst retail experience ever
Website says things are in stock that aren't. This happened to me THREE different times. Only found out after waiting weeks for shipment updates. Does not have telephone support and I am still waiting for an email inquiry I sent over a week ago. Will never recommend and will not shop here ever again.
