I do not recommend ordering large furniture items from Zara Home based on my experience…read more I ordered a large area rug (over 9' x 12') that cost more than $1,000. Given the price, I was surprised to hear it was packaged in nothing more than a thin cardboard box, with no protective wrapping or cushioning. Unfortunately, the shipping company, CEVA, rescheduled my delivery multiple times before ultimately informing me that the rug had been damaged in transit and would not be delivered. While the damage may have occurred during shipping, I believe the lack of protective packaging (communicated to me by the delivery courier) significantly increased the likelihood of this happening, especially for such a large and expensive item. What made the experience even more frustrating was the replacement process. I had to call customer service almost every day just to receive updates, as there was very little proactive communication. My family was in the middle of moving, and we intentionally ordered the rug in advance so it would arrive before our furniture. When I asked if the replacement shipment could be expedited given the circumstances, I was told it would require approval, but no one could provide a timeline or guarantee. Ironically, that approval process only caused additional delays. Customer service was also disappointing. Representatives repeatedly told me they could not transfer me to anyone with more authority and that I would need to wait 48 hours for an update. In reality, it took five days to hear back, and the only update I received was that my replacement order was being prepared with standard shipping and that I would receive new tracking information. Overall, the experience was extremely frustrating from start to finish. I expected better packaging, clearer communication, and a more customer-focused resolution, especially considering this was a purchase of more than $1,000. Based on my experience, I would recommend purchasing large furniture or home décor items from a retailer with a more established delivery and customer service process.

They also serve(d) coffee prior to corona-times. It's worth visiting to get out of the rain next time you're in Oud-West Amsterdam!

I've ordered from their site a few times now and the items are always well packed and show up incredibly fast. There's no additional charges because they calculate any tariffs or taxes up front and what you pay at checkout is what you pay, period. Shell Pink Le Creuset is very hard to find in the US and Chiffon Pink, while being more common, is usually bought out before I get to it, so I love that Meesterslijpers' keeps the Shell Pink color in stock. All in all, it's a fantastic business and I highly appreciate their prompt shipping and high attention to detail so I'll absolutely keep coming back for more Shell Pink Le Creuset!
