Editorial Rating
Product quality – ★★★★ (4)
Depending on your budget, you can get yourself a bed that will serve you for years or pay less and get a quick solution that will cost cheaper, but last less.
Like any good mid-end niche brands, UO aims to provide you with reasonable pricing and keep the product quality as high as it’s possible.
Considering the furniture pieces that we’ve ordered during our store test, the major part of their items are not just pretty/stylish, but are very solid and made out of top-quality materials.
The bottom line is — it’s a great choice for the money they ask you to pay.
Delivery – ★★★★ (4)
They have 4 different types of delivery that you can either select at the checkout or will be used depending on the size of your shipment:
Standard — 5-9 business days
Express — 2-3 business days
Rush — 1-2 business days
Truck — 2-4 weeks
If you’re in a rush, you’ll have to pay a little extra, but that’s pretty regular considering the expedited shipment rates on the market in general.
Value for money – ★★★★ (4)
Urban Outfitters is a solid mid-end niche brand that has some pricey products, but their overall pricing policy is quite reasonable.
The products in home goods section are handpicked from various brands and most of them are top-notch pieces. It’s way better than cheap mass market stuff. We genuinely believe than paying a few bucks extra and getting things like UO sells is a great investment. Their products tend to last long and remain stylish while aging.
Website ease of use – ★★★★★ (5)
The site is easy to use, since it has a minimalist design. No extra banners, pop-up blocks, etc. Everything is clean, the filters are easy to use. What’s really great is the speed. Pictures are downloading really fast, which is important when you’re furniture shopping.
Product information – ★★★★ (4)
They provide you with the generic specifications like size, measurements and details on how to take care of the products if needed. A big plus is the shipping dimensions since it’s very convenient to understand how big of a bog will arrive.
Plus, they list the information on shipping and returns on every product page. It’s easy to learn it before adding the product to basket.
Product images – ★★★★★ (5)
Since the very beginning, Urban Outfitters aimed to conquer the attention of the younger audience and cover the average millennial’s needs. With that in mind, all of their products have amazing photos to this day. You can not only see the product from all the sides, but also see how a proper interior should look in a room for this item to look great.
Product options – ★★★★ (4)
Most of their products have color options to choose from. Unfortunately, they do not give you a chance to customize furniture pieces before shipping. But that’s obvious, cause they’re not manufacturers, they’re selling furniture of selected brands.
Support – ★★★★ (4)
UO are offering live chat support along with the phone line where you can call and ask any question 24/7. On top of this, you can chat with them in social media, which is a rare and convenient way of communication these days.
The level of support can vary, though, as it always happens in big international companies. It’s simply too hard to make sure every representative is doing his/her best to assist.
Warranty – ★★★★ (4)
Urban Outfitters guarantees that the furniture you buy is free from manufacture defect. Products are covered by store warranty within 1-year from the original purchase date.
Returns & Refunds – ★★★★ (4)
Furniture and home goods from Urban Outfitters can be returned or exchanged within 60 days from original purchase.
The refund will be returned to the original payment method.
After 60-day period, you can still return your item. However, you will only be able to receive a store credit. Which is still great if you want to get something else on UO website.
You can return the item using mail or take it to the UO store. Click here to get your FREE SHIPPING LABEL and start the process of return.
Discounts/coupons – ★★★★ (4)
They do have a lot of promotions and furniture pieces or interior decor elements with lowered prices. Sign up to their newsletter and get promo notifications right on time.
Payment options – ★★★★★ (5)
