Hi Sasha,
I am really sorry to hear that the experience has not matched what you expected, and I appreciate you taking the time to share it. The last thing I want is for anyone to feel misled or manipulated. That is not how we operate, and your point is something I will take seriously with the team.
On pricing, I want to be as clear as possible. We do run seasonal promotions throughout the year, such as Valentine’s, Mother’s Day, Labour Day, and some flash sales. As a young brand still growing, those campaigns help us reach new customers. With the Marshbello loveseat specifically, the original list price was our actual launch price. Over time, we learned that the lower price point drove stronger demand, so we kept it there rather than returning to the higher launch price. I understand how that can look from the outside, but it was not a fake anchor. It was us adjusting based on what we were learning, not an attempt to pressure or mislead.
Regarding comfort, I am sorry it has not felt as good as you hoped. We try to make our photos and descriptions as accurate as possible, but I understand how posture and proportions can affect how a piece feels. The Marshbello’s SmartFoam softens and adapts with use, so you should notice some improvement over time, but your experience still matters.
I know reviews like yours do not come lightly, and I really appreciate you being this candid. If you ever feel like giving us another chance or want to talk through your experience in more detail, you are always welcome to reach out to our team or directly to me.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts. They genuinely help us get better.
Gabe
