Oneida Silverware Warranty

My Olympia silverware has a design flaw that causes it to break at the seam. Before Lenox bought Oneida, Oneida would honor their warranty even though the line was discontinued, with a different piece. I was informed today that Oneida will not honor the warranty. The warranty is only good for the "lifetime of the line" and not for the defect of the piece. Be aware that Oneida no longer honors the warranty when they discontinue the line even though it is stated in the warranty to defects will be replaced. Not when they discontinue the line. Poor customer service.

Can't get ahold of customer service

While I like the products, NEVER ORDER THROUGH THE COMPANY SITE DIRECTLY. Seriously, that was a huge mistake and it even cost more to do that. Customer service is non-existent. The phone just rings and noone answers email. I don't know if anyone even works in the office at this point. I need to return my set and I am screwed.

On line service is outdated

Yep- did my cyber shopping and buyer beware - if you order like I did and disappointed with the quality - they won't pay to ship it back. Bought stuff that was supposedly high quality and expensive - huge markdowns - and when I get it the flatware feels like plastic - incredibly light - So I call to return -
I was 4th in line and requested a call back - over an hour later I get a call back - then I'm told I have to pay to ship it back -
Old school and in todays on line community I hope everyone will take note that this company wants to be on line - they send me multiple emails a day for deals - and when you buy you aren't allowed to ship it back if you don't like it - amazing

No live person answering telephone and I tried several numbers!

I ordered 8 spoons. I wanted teaspoons. Their item said "dinner" spoons. I thought they were one and the same. Upon further checking, it appears that their dinner spoon is much larger (my family uses the larger spoon as a soup spoon, and the even larger ones as serving spoons). I attempted to call every phone number I could find for Oneida and for Anchor Hocking in an attempt to resolve this quickly but only got message boards saying everyone was busy. Seriously? I left messages everywhere saying it was urgent someone call me back. Crickets... My problem could be resolved within 2 minutes of speaking to a representative, but instead they now have a very frustrated and angry individual who regrets doing business with them!

Glassware - VERY poor quality

I ordered two sets of the Manchester 16 piece glassware. Order arrived and was found to be of VERY poor quality! Glasses had a defect similar to a blog of glass on the drinking edge, seams are very rough, spider web internal cracks are very visible.

My order was $85 and paid $10 for shipping. I wanted to return the glassware and return shipping is not covered. I took the box to UPS only to find out that shipping would cost me $92.

BUYER BEWARE! Poor Quality, look elsewhere!

Stay clear from this company-Too bad ZERO stars isn't an option

Several months ago I purchased a complete set of everyday flatware for my daughter. The first time she ran them through the dishwasher they came out totally rusted. I emailed the company and sent pictures and of course, no response. Their return policy states that it will be OUR responsibility for the shipping cost to send them back. I also noticed that their products are NOT MADE IN THE USA! I have had my Fine flatware for over 40 years and not one rust mark which is why I decided to purchase a set for my daughter. I also purchased for myself, extra pieces for my existing set. They became rusted as well. If I knew that Oneida flatware was manufactured in other countries, I would have purchased elsewhere. This company has really gone downhill. I will never purchase anything from them again.

Black Friday/Cyber Monday Fail

I have placed online orders with Oneida in the past and have had no issues. Come Black Friday/Cyber Monday, I had issues placing an order all weekend with errors on the website. I emailed them and called them. The CSR I spoke with was even having the same issues I was having, and couldn't complete my order. I called Tuesday (after Cyber Monday) - still having the same issues, and they WOULD NOT honor the discounts, even with notes in the system of the issues. Completely unacceptable, and will not order from them again.

This is why I am an Amazon shopper

This is what I get for trying to support Anchor Hocking at Oneida.com instead of going through Amazon! I ordered a really cute 70 oz glass pumpkin jar for a pumpkin themed baby shower. I ordered with plenty of time to receive the item before the shower, and did in fact receive it a week prior to the party. Unfortunately, all that was shipped to me was the lid. The lid! I immediately sent a message to the company, yet hadn't heard anything back two days later, so I called and had the "pleasure" of speaking with Danielle in customer service. With an irritated tone in her voice, she informed me that they would be more than happy to ship me the dish portion of the pumpkin but that it would take 7 to 10 days, with no option to rush it. As my party was 5 days away, and with no possible way to get the bowl portion of my product in time, I inquired about returning the lid. I was informed that I was able to return it and would be refunded for the order once they received it, with the caveat that I would have to pay for shipping. Asking for an alternative solution to their error that didn't penalize me, Danielle repeated the previous options, with her already irritated tone getting ruder with each word. If companies like Oneida and Anchor Hocking would like to compete with Amazon, they should at least attempt to adopt similar shipping and return processes. Unfortunately, this situation reiterated why I continue to send my money to Amazon, even though I'd rather support individual companies directly. Sorry Oneida.com, this order was a failure all the way from shipping to customer service.

Q:

Are there other similar companies to Oneida that are less expensive or better?

A:

If I knew Oneida's flatware were so poorly manufactured, I would have purchased my flatware set from 360 Cookware. Their products are completely manufactured here in the USA! Excellent quality!

Q:

How easy is it to get a hold of customer service at Oneida?

A:

Non existent. Let me know if anyone finds someone.

by Levi Garcia - December 22, 2021

A:

Good luck! They don't answer the phones nor emails. And when you are lucky enough to get a live body, they are of no help.

A:

I got customer service but could not connect me to a supervisor. Also refused to give me estimated turn around time to correct my order. They gave me knives instead of spoons.

A:

I placed 2 different orders on oneida.com in December 2018 and my orders arrived with no problems. Be prepared though, it takes a few days to ship.
