Each item shipped separately, ruining the occasion
I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. I ordered a large gift consisting of multiple products, to be delivered to a large group of teachers and students.
I had NO IDEA they would ship one at a time!! Harry & David's completely ruined the occasion. Their customer service was kind but not nice enough to fix a terribly disappointing experience. If only they had MESSAGED me and told me my items couldn't be shipped together, I would have chosen SOMETHING ELSE that could!!

Outrageous shipping charges; order submitted before completing payment
I put an order in my cart for my mother’s Mother’s Day gift. When I got to check out I noticed that the shipping costs were over $35, which is ridiculous on a $74 order. A survey popped up so I took the survey. I left the site and immediately got a notification that Harry and David had received my order. I never completed checkout. I didn’t even finish paying. I was using PayPal, and it did not take me to the PayPal site to enter my password. Essentially, my order went through just because I left their site, and they submitted my PayPal payment without my password. I tried to cancel within five minutes and their chat system said it could not be canceled. This is not ethical, and it will be the last thing I ever ordered from Harry and David.
I have two Harry and David Gift Cards that I was told, DO NOT EXPIRE. When I tried to use them, they said that had no record of them. Harry and David got $100.00 and I got nothing. What a scam!!

Harry & David My Mother's Dead
Harry & David keeps sending me Mother's Day reminders to purchase for my Mom, which I have done in the past. The problem is I have notified them several times that she passed away. Now they keep sending reminders to sell me stuff for her BUT SHE'S DEAD. I keep getting reminded that I do not have a Mother. Why can't I get someone at H & D on the phone, a real person?

I would bring it lower if I could
I would bring it lower if I could. They charged me twice. They added an extra basket onto my order. I could not get a hold of anyone to cancel or change the address of the order. I would never ever recommend this place. I feel like I need to cancel my credit card after I use them

I wanted a special gift for my sister’s birthday. I ordered an expensive gift basket. They charged so much for shipping, but I was glad to get her something nice. The day before her birthday they still hadn’t shipped the gift. After many calls to customer service they said there was nothing they could do. It finally arrived many days past her birthday. So disappointing

Ripoff
I ordered there most expensive food basket, and tossed in a Raspberry desert. I also ordered a card. Instead of delivering both at the same time, they delivered each separately, plus HD made two cards, exactly the same, and charged me for two cards. These people don't know what they're doing and I will never use HD again, nor should you.

Outstanding Customer Service
I received 5-star customer service from Melissa, who took my order, Toni, who greatly helped to expedite it and kept in touch with me, and Brian( from Oregon) who was also most helpful and cordial. They are among the many reasons that I love Harry and David's. They value me and connect well with me, the customer. They made this past experience a most positive one and I am truly grateful to them! Melissa, Toni, and Brian are awesome on steroids!!
i received a gift from my sister. the packaged stuff was good, the pears were bad. lets put it this way, i would not have picked them in a store. they looked like they were picked out of a garbage can. black
marks and soft. when i cut one, the inside was brown ….when i wrote a comment on their facebook Ad. they will not show it. they were garbage. they sent another box of pears and they were just as bad. i believe the Harry & David company were sold to
1-800-flowers. another company that is not very good.
BUYER BEWARE.

I have been a loyal customer of Harry &…
I have been a loyal customer of Harry & David for years, sending beautiful & delicious gifts to family, friends and colleagues with rave reviews.
Recently I sent my 82 yr old brother a gift basket for which I payed extra to make certain that Harry & David delivered his gift basket on time . My original date of delivery, May 6, to my brother came & went ,my package wasn’t delivered. I set another later delivery date , May 13, with Harry & David & again no package arrived .
Harry & David offered to reimburse me for a lower amount (23 percent)for the gift basket I had placed on my credit card. Harry & David wanted to schedule a third delivery date. And I was referred to the loyalty department. This whole debacle took more than 5 hours with long waits as I was shuffled between multiple agent having to repeat the entire story with no resolution.
I cancelled my order.
I gave up and contacted my credit card company & and the refund is in process.
My review is unfortunately one of many dissatisfied customers. I am no longer a Harry & David customer
Horrible experience. Not only do the orders not arrive on time, but it’s not because of shipping delays - it’s because they never even shipped it out anywhere close to the promised delivery date.
We paid for two day air delivery and the package never showed up for my mother in laws birthday. When we called we were shocked that it hadn’t even shipped yet! By the time it arrived, she had already left on vacation for 3 weeks. Her birthday gift then sat on her porch for three weeks!
My husband called H&D and they promised to send another $200 gift basket to arrive when my mother in law is back from vacation. That date has come and gone and still nothing!
So my husband spent an hour on chat with their reps today who literally couldn’t even find the order in the system. My husband said to them, how can you not see the order when I’m looking at it in my account right here on my screen? Their response to that was that they’ve been having numerous problems with their ordering platform. During this chat he was disconnected and had to reach out yet again and start from the beginning with yet another rep. What a nightmare.
We now have another promised delivery date a week and half from the date I’m writing this review.
Do yourself a favor. Do not order from this company. They can’t adhere to promised delivery dates, they can’t find your order in the system, you’ll end up speaking with some phone rep who is stationed somewhere in India.
We will never use this company again and if we don’t receive the next order we are going straight to our credit card company and the better business bureau for reimbursement of expedited shipping fees and broken promises on delivery dates.

I got a shipment of pears that were old and rotting. They were FedEx to me and should have been in more edible condition. These are for the trash.

I received a pear boxed gift set and all the pears were blackened and bruised. A couple also had holes in them, most likely from fingers. Disgusted!

It took 2 months for my delivery to get here. My sister in law had to order it 3 times. The 1st one was supposed to get here December 7 ,2025. I got it February 7,2026. All of the pears were rotten and the apples are not far behind. Every time we called they lied and said it was on it's way but wouldn't give us a tracking number. When we went to tracking on their website, there was nothing there. All of their customer service people are foreign, which means they are out sourcing to another country. I would not suggest ordering from them ever.

I’m extremely disappointed with my recent experience with Harry & David. I ordered an fruit tower for a friend who had just undergone surgery, and the timing of the gift was important. Instead, the shipping label wasn’t even created until the last day it was supposed to arrive, and the package ended up being over a week late.
When something is meant to show support during a vulnerable moment, a delayed delivery isn’t just an inconvenience — it completely undermines the purpose of the gift. Simply offering to replace the order isn’t enough when the moment has passed. You don’t get a mulligan for something like this.
I chose Harry & David specifically because of their reputation, but this experience was embarrassing and deeply disappointing. I expected better from a brand known for reliability, and I hope they take situations like this more seriously in the future.

Pears were over- ripe upon arrival
This is the last time I order from H&D. Every time I've had some issue with delivery time, product quality on arrival, or problem resolution. Don't waste your time!
I'd give zero stars if possible. They are a scam, I think. I ordered 2 baskets for a friend who just lost her husband. One was delivered as scheduled and the second still has not arrived and likely will be frozen when it does. Customer service is completely useless - even the actual humans, not just the bots. They just make the situation worse by arguing with the customer. Obviously Harry and David doesn't care at all about their crappy reputation.

Harry and David Rip Off
I would leave NO STARS as Harry and David is a rip off - my order was placed on 31 December 2025 and as it is now 22 Jan 2026 still waiting for delivery. they have a smart way of not leaving an email for communication, there is a phone number but what happens when you try to call?? Try it WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY!!
