I ordered almost $1000 worth of plants… I ordered almost $1000 worth of plants and pots. When everything arrived, a majority of the plants were badly damaged. The leaves were either broken, black or wilted. I contacted the customer service within the 30 Customer Happiness Guarantee. They were only willing to refund the cost of the plants, but I would need to pay out of my own pocket the return of the pots that came with the plants. There was no way I was going to allow them to double dip for the cost of the pots. My advice, stay away from The Sill and buy your plants for a local nursery or Home Depot. The plants are in much better shape and the customer service doesn’t suck!!

The Sill has provided the worst… The Sill has provided the worst customer service I have ever experienced. It is extremely difficult to get a reply from them - expect to wait days. I received a plant in terrible condition, then a replacement in the same state, and they still have not refunded two plants I never received after nearly a month of my follow ups. Shockingly terrible service. Buyer beware. Follow up - Despite the message below, I did not receive any response or contact. from The Sill. Again, absolutely atrocious.

Bad company, don’t use. I ordered 7 plants online, and some potting mix. The big palm and potting mix never arrived, even though it said “delivered” and a couple of the other plants that did arrived were badly damaged. I’ve been trying to reach them for 2 weeks, there’s no phone number, no one available on live chat, and they’re slow to respond to email and vague about resolving my issue. Definitely don’t recommend this company, and May end up contacting my bank to try and claim a credit card issue due to the $100 that’s just gone. **edit** it gets worse: the Sill responded below to say that they would contact me “today” to sort this out, and that was yesterday. Absolutely terrible, liars.

Declining satisfaction … I was thrilled with my first plant purchases over several months in fall of 2022. However, my latest purchases over the summer of 2023 have been unsatisfactory. Issues include a poorly pruned pepperomia that I could not display until it filled out, receiving an olive tree stick with a few leaves along its length stuck in a pot, and receiving a broken pot. I sent a photo of the pepperomia and was told it would grow out of its poor appearance. When I sent a picture questioning whether the olive “tree” was truly what they meant to send, the response was that the leaves were green. When I reported receiving a broken pot under feedback, I never received a response. My last purchase in September 2023, I decided to order plants simultaneously from another online source and they arrived the same day. The difference between the Sill and Pafe plants startled me in regard to plant height and fullness. I won’t be ordering from The Sill, again.

Dead Olive Tree - TERRIBLE Customer Service Ordered an Olive tree for a Christmas present. Delivery to Oakland, CA. Also paid extra for the winterization,. Tree arrived dead after 2 weeks. Customer service is a joke and only willing to refund for the dead tree, not tax or pot - what's the point of full service if the main product is dead? The worst part is the customer service and their failure to reply or offer adequate service. Seems to be a planter pot selling scheme.
