very slow response time
customer
I bought my last 2 frames from D/K, and I told everyone it was a 5+ star experience; however, this most recent experience is disappointing. There were long delays in communications, and my 2 recent messages have been unanswered for 2 weeks. I want to be a life-long D/K customer, and I'll always cheer for D/K success; however, I can't give a strong rating this time around.

Remarkably responsive service, but suboptimal quality of finished product. I am now skeptical about the quality of the lenses and accuracy by which a prescription can be filled off an online photo. After month of trying the provided Rx frames, Ive gone back to my old frames & lenses as they cause less eye strain despite the same prescription. I would caution anyone buying prescription glasses through this service.

Hi JD, we're sorry to hear this but would love to resolve the issue or troubleshoot with you. We have a 3% remake/return rate which is below the national average of 7-11% (this includes in person optometry offices). We really pride ourselves on accuracy of measurements and prescription. Please send us an email to [email protected] and we'd love to help.

I wish I could give a better review but it took a long time for me to receive my glasses and the team did not proactively communicate with me regarding any of the delays: I ordered my glasses on 05/25/20 I was informed it would take 7-10 working days (after I asked via email). After 12 working days I followed up and it took 2 days for them to get back to me and inform me 'they are going through final tomorrow' (it was 6/9/20). On 6/12 I still had not received a shipping confirmation so followed up again and only then was informed 'glasses didn't pass final'. I did not get my glasses until 6/17. I informed the customer care team that they should have been proactively informing me of delays in my order instead of me needing to follow up with them constantly. It was a really disappointing experience as these glasses are not inexpensive so I was expecting a really high end experience end to end, however, it was really subpar. While I love my glasses I will not order here again as I do not trust this company to be able to provide timely delivery or even base line acceptable costumer service.

Hi Davis, We apologize that you didn't have the best experience with customer service, but very glad that you love your glasses! It does look like it took a total of 15 working days (we lost a day due to Memorial Day). The promised time is 7-10 working days, so it definitely took a bit longer than usual. Sami did follow up within 1 day according to our system, but yes we agree we that she should've been a bit more proactive. We ended up overnighting the package (we typically use 2-3 day shipping) to accommodate for lost time and delays. We have experienced delays with shipping due to the pandemic, which has not been ideal. Again, we apologize for the delays with shipping and ETA updates. We hope you give us a try again in the future.

Glasses felt very cheap, no different from Warby Parker’s costing hundreds less. Design was cool but if your gonna spend $400 on glasses they shouldn’t feel like they cost $20. I bought and then returned

Brian, thanks for the review. Sorry the Hartford Aviator sun style didn’t work out. That is one of the more delicate/lightweight styles we sell. You may find more of what you were looking for with our styles that have mineral glass sun lenses.
