Very disappointed! I ordered 9 different teebags of 100gram each, but unfortunately all of them have an expiration date within three to four weeks! In addition, I got some completely different ones than I ordered! Not what you would deserve after 8-10 previous orders. Will definitely consider before placing more orders
Response from Nippon & co
Hello,

I am truly sorry for your experience, which is clearly not up to the standard of your previous orders.

Regarding the expiration dates, my manager is currently looking to clear some stock. He considers that Japanese standards on expiration dates are stricter, and that the products can often be safely used beyond the printed date. That said, I completely understand how this can come across as unprofessional, and I share your concerns.

Unfortunately, I don’t have much flexibility on this matter. However, I encourage you to contact our customer service by email so we can try to offer you some form of compensation. I want to be transparent: this will depend on my manager’s decision, so I cannot make any guarantees at this stage.

We are also sorry for the mistake with the items you received, which should not have happened. On this point, however, we can absolutely resolve it quickly. Please don’t hesitate to email us at **[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])** so we can arrange this.

Again, our sincere apologies for these issues, and thank you for your loyalty despite this disappointing experience.

Best regards,
Nippon & CO Team

My wife was very disappointed to find out that the Tenugui was printed only on 1 side.

Poor quality knife, handle not made of wood but plastic. Not sharp as it should be, poor quality steel.
Translated reviews
Response from Nippon & co
Thank you for your feedback. We want to assure you that the handle of this knife is indeed made of wood, as indicated in the product description. It seems you have chosen a model that is part of our basic/intermediate range, designed to offer a good quality/price ratio. We also have high-end knives in our assortment if you are looking for something sharper or made with higher quality materials.

This knife, while not as sharp as our premium models, has the advantage of being dishwasher safe, which is not always recommended for high-end knives that often require hand maintenance. We hope this explanation is helpful and we are available for further information.

Good goods,but they charge a lot for shipping which is very slow. Despite placing order on time for delivery by Christmas, My package arrived on December 31.
Translated reviews
Response from Nippon & co
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry for the delay and understand your frustration. Shipping costs are determined by our couriers, and we always try to offer the best rates possible. We are a small company with only 4 employees, and during the Christmas season, due to the high volume of orders, it may happen that deliveries are not always on time. We will work to improve and thank you for your understanding.

The model chosen is not up to the standard of those previously purchased (fabric thickness). A weight of the fabric used should be indicated in the description.

Response from Nippon & co
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that this model does not fully meet your expectations. Your comment on the thickness of the fabric is valuable, and we will pass it on to our team in order to improve our product descriptions.

I was very disappointed to find that the Daruma size M I ordered was as basic in terms of ornamentation as a size SS. Had I known this beforehand, I would have ordered a smaller size.
Translated reviews
Response from Nippon & co
Thank you for your feedback and we apologize for the lack of clarity regarding the correspondence between the sizes and the photos of the Darumas on our site. We understand your disappointment and will work to clarify this information so that our customers can make their choice with confidence. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any further assistance, and sorry again for this experience!

If the item arrives with a manufacturing defect, the after-sales service considers that this is linked to the handcrafted nature of the object. The customer is responsible for return shipping costs. The positioning in customer relations is aggressive and in bad faith. I'd like to point out that I've been a regular customer for several years, and that I found the delivery times and product quality very satisfactory. My experience with customer service has been very negative and the bad faith, in addition to the poor reception of customer service has broken the trust I had in this provider. One item arrived with a defect, lacking paint around the edge of the plate. This was in no way a hazard related to the handcrafted nature of the product, unless you accept that a partially painted wall is related to the handcrafted nature of the product. Despite convincing photos, the after-sales service denies the problem, blaming the artisanal aspect. The current manager is riding the wave of positive comments, but these should change soon, as I'm sure I'm not the only one paying the price for this policy.

The color of the product received is not entirely consistent with the presentation made on the site. The site does not mention that the color is random. You're presented with a fait accompli on delivery. Another problem is the quality of the product's fabric, which is extremely clingy. The after-sales service gives pertinent advice which seems to alleviate the problem, but the fabric still hangs quite badly. I was not offered an exchange.

Hello, the color of the cord is random and not the color of the product. The cotton is quite normal, it was static electricity created by its plastic bag. I don't understand this exchange thing, if the item doesn't suit you, you should have simply returned it. Sincerely

Loyal Nippon & Co customer...this delivery was a disaster. Parcel stuck on the Post Office sorting platform. Customer service contacted by e-mail but no answer. I needed an advisor to answer all my justified questions. By sheer magic, the Post Office found the parcel, which supposedly had to be reinforced...parcel arrived after a 15-day wait instead of 2 to 3 days (colissimo).

I ordered masks and a Daruma for my tattoo parlour. The masks are nice but made of plastic and the Daruma is only 3 cm long. I ordered the masks and a Daruma for my tattoo parlour. The masks are nice but made of plastic and the Daruma is only 3 cm long.

Response from Nippon & co
Hello, thank you for your feedback. As for the items, their material is well mentioned in the product sheets, in this sense, you bought these masks in knowledge. Just like the daruma that you chose in size SS. We are sorry for the inconvenience and we are not responsible for the behaviour of the deliverymen. Sincerely
