Zero stars! BUYER BEWARE: Poor Customer Support & Hidden Return Fees🚨 Sharing my experience so others don't fall into the same trap. I attempted to process an exchange/return with them for over a month and the experience has been a nightmare: 🚩 Hidden Fees: Nowhere on their site or checkout page did it state that buyers are hit with undisclosed return shipping/deduction costs. 🚩 Automated Delays: Customer support continuously responds with generic copy-paste scripts to avoid resolving the issue or processing a refund. 🚩 Zero Accountability: They drag out communication hoping customers simply give up on their money. Save yourself the headache and buy from a company that values basic transparency and real customer service. #CustomerServiceFail #ShoppingReview #essenther #FraudAlert #nightmare

Goede service
Had een bh besteld volgens de maattabel. Was echt niet de goede maat. Ik wilde het omruilen voor een andere maat en dat kon kosteloos. Prima. Nieuwe maat zit super!

I purchased four front closure bras in…
I purchased four front closure bras in August. After one to two wears the metal rod that slides into the metal clasp had already broken and would no longer latch at the bottom so I cannot wear any of them. They said since it was beyond the 30 days they couldn't do anything. A weak guarantee telling me a product will only last one wear and less than 30 days.

Return address is a charity, not the seller
The bra I ordered (order placed 16 Sept, delivered 22 Sept) was too big everywhere. I emailed customer service on 26 Sept to ask for an exchange. They only replied on 8 Oct, didn't offer the exchange, and gave me a return address in Helmstedt, Germany, which turns out to be a clothing donation charity (Deutsche Kleiderstiftung), not the company. Return shipping is at the customer's expense. They also offered to refund only 40% if I kept the item, and asked me not to leave a review or open a case. If you're unsure of your size, don't order here: getting a refund or an exchange is made as hard as possible. Sur Trustpilot, on te demandera la date de ton expérience : mets le 8 octobre 2026.

The front hook on the bra won’t open. I’ve been going back and forth with them asking to return it. After several emails, now they want a photo. Horrible customer service! It seems shady.

Where do I begin
Where do I begin? I'm not sure if it could qualify as a 'scam' per say, but it doesn't operate like a normal online business either. I ordered 2 bras. I did not receive a receipt and no money was taken from my PayPal account. The next day, there was still no evidence of a transaction so I thought I had not completed the order so I did another order. Again no receipt. Later that day, 2 tracking numbers appeared in in my Australia Post app from Amazon. This was a mystery as I had not ordered from Amazon. Later, I saw 2 receipts from 'Tsinlo' in my PayPal account. I tried to completed a contact form on the Essenther site. They would not send me a verification email after various attempts. Also I never received an order number with which to refer. I sent an email to the one provided on the PayPal site. I also send an email to the Essenther site. I received a response from the PayPal listed email address which wanted to know the tracking numbers. By then, the 2 'Amazon' parcels had arrived and was missing one bra so I generated a dispute with PayPal. In the meantime, I received 2 more tracking numbers. This time from 'Tsinlo'. One of the packages was delivered to someone hundreds of kilometres away and the other is in transit to an unknown destination at this point. Ironically, the 3 bras I have received seem to be ok, but time will tell. There seems to be no head company and I feel that the online store may be a dummy site? A very weird experience.

All good!
I usually have a poor experience with online vendors. However this was a positive. I bought 2 bras. Different front closure styles. The fit is true to size. The feel is lovely. The comfort level I will give a high five. All in all a good experience. I have no idea what it might have been like if I needed to return.

I am really nervous that this might be a scam I bought 2 Bra on the 17th and it was Not sent to me, the Track number from DHL shows that they didn’t even delivered to DHL yet… I am afraid that is a scam and I won’t have my Money or the Bra.

The items do not live up to the hype
The items do not live up to the hype, they flatten and look nothing like their ads. My requests to return the items with full tags, original packaging and only tried on have gone completely into some kind of customer service void, obviously do not honour their returns policy. Don't bother, just another brand better at marketing than actually providing a quality product.

Bad customer service and they don’t refund
Out of the 8 items I needed to return 7, They will not provide me with a return address and are acting all sketchy that the cannot do a refund but send me new items when I just want a refund. It is impossible to get a hold of them and every time I email them they get back to me a week later. This has now being going on for over 3 week!

Great! Even for bigger breasts
I really struggle to find a adfortable strapless bra for my sizes 85E. I have expensive ones over 100 euro. So i thought i try this one. I really like this one. Great support on the sides but also foryour breasts!! Soft material en it is indeed minimizing. You can but shoulderband on it and that works perfect. So i really reccomand essenther for the strapless bra's, certainly for woman with bigger breasts! Very happy quality and pricewise!

Terrible experience and product
Terrible experience with a terrible company! The bras are not what they advertise. They're also from overseas (China I believe)... although you'resupposed to send back items to an addressin Arizona if you'reasking for a refund. There's no customer service phone number. The only way is to email them. However, they do not respond quickly. It takes myltiple attempts to get them to respond. They are difficult with returns and refunds. They insist i. You keeping the item instead. They mught offer to send you a replacement for a cheaper price so thst you don't have to ask for a return and refund. The reason for this is because YOU are paying for shipping the item back to them to their Arizona address. So, i paid around $26 for a terrible bra that i can't use and would pay almost $15 (if via post office) or almost $17 (if via UPS) to send it back to them for a refund... hoping that they approve the refund. Does that make sense to you as a customer or a decent, ethical business person??? It does not make sense to me. I'm donating the terrible bra, and i lost my money and almost my sanity dealing with them. Do yourself a favor, stay away from this company. I wonder if they would do this if their customers were men and how that would work out for them...

Good except offshore w foreign fees
This is an edit: Main issue I have with this company is the way they market themselves as being an onshore store. A bit deceptive as they are hong kong/china based & so purchases incur foreign fees! (had they been upfront I could've used alternative payment methods to prevent this) Everything else went fairly smoothly. The unpadded wired front closure racer back bras are my favourites & I live in them 24/7 including sleeping in them as they are that comfortable. Once you know your size in a particular bra style you can just order & pretty much get consistent products. Note: different styles may fit differently & hence vary sizing. I have been wearing the same ones for years without issue or fault. Once you work out closure clip it is so easy. The plastic clips havent failed yet & the fabric has retained its shape for years as well as elastic & stitching easily 5 yrs + 24/7 wear. The latest ones were perfect & the same as my original ones. It may be worthwhile buying via Amazon to get to know your size & comfort with easy returns prior to buying direct as I've heard returns are chaotic. I've not returned so cant say. Customer Service replies if you use the online form (they may take a few days which is also annoying). Im not super thin nor obese so Im not sure how these hold up with heavier girls. Up to a D cup you'll find these great. Again Amazon free delivery & easy return is the way to go for a product trial then essenther direct for better prices, styles & colours. The initial logistics is with 17ttack china ubi which can be slow to update with parcel still moving a fair bit inbetween updates. Local delivery was AU post who were in fact the slower part of delivery but overall within 7 days & would've been earlier had it not sat with au post for 4 days before delivery sorting. Overall I was pleased with my experience & definitely will continue buying only with a intl fee free card on future purchases.

SCAM
I bought a few strapless bras from the company hoping to find a nice one that fit me well for my wedding day. The parcel didn’t arrive in time (my fault for ordering last minute) so I was overseas when it came. I explained this in an email and as they state on their returns policy that if you are no happy with your purchase they will accept returns, I asked if I could get a friend to post it straight back to them, box untouched. They agreed and I sent the receipt to them but they are not accepting my photo of the receipt. I have sent them the tracking number where I can see the parcel has been delivered but they keep resending the same email. I spent $158 dollars and they have received the bras back, untouched by me and they are refusing to refund me anythingu

Keep your money and your sanity. Avoid Essenther!
If there was any rating less than one, I would have chosen it. The advertising appears to be AI. The actual product is terrible quality and looks nothing like the advertisement. Customer service is worse that frustrating - basically they wear you out until you just give up. Keep your money and your sanity. Avoid this company and its products!

This company is connected with Solbrace active wear , czy yoga active wear , Inlyric and Momanda maternity wear . The customer service at Essenther and Solbrace is terrible . They have either no replies or late replies. They avoid answering the actual question and go about another or they ask the same questions to just keep delaying resolving the issue . They just give you the endless run around . Solbrace is the same and czy yoga I never had to have any contact with them I ordered and received my products so there wasn’t any need to deal with anyone . Czy yoga is a little more pricey but they all generally have the same products

Horrible customer service, nonexistent!
I was advertised free return when I bought their merchandise so I ordered different sizes to try. Well, it wasn't free. Had to email pictures of returned merchandise to them and pay for return shipping myself. Plus, they didn't refund two items I sent back. I emailed them twice about it -- crickets!!! I will never buy from this company again! Horrible customer service, inconsistent information about returns, long return process. The bras are of poor quality and didn't hold well after couple washes. The sticky tape around the edges are coming off.

Avoid this company.
Avoid this company. I ordered 13 bras, all in the exact same size. Shockingly, only about half of them fit, while the others were completely off. This clearly shows a serious lack of consistency in their sizing and quality control. The real nightmare started when I tried to return the items. Instead of honoring their return policy, customer service repeatedly pushed me to keep products I can’t use and offered a ridiculous 25% refund. When I refused, they provided an incomplete return address that multiple shipping companies would not accept. I spent over 10 days chasing them for the missing information needed to ship the package. Their response? Other customers had supposedly managed to ship there, and they refused to provide any additional details. At this point, I still have unwanted items, no refund, and no workable return solution. The website makes the company appear far more customer-friendly than my experience suggests. Based on my experience, I would strongly advise anyone considering an order to think twice, especially if you may need to make a return.

Frustrating ordering experience
Ordering from essenther.com was a headache. The checkout kept glitching, and then my confirmation email didn’t show up until way later, so I wasn’t even sure the order went through. When I reached out to support, it kind of felt like they were blaming me for the issue instead of actually helping. The whole thing just felt messy, and I don’t think I’d order from them again 0 Reply

Terrible customer service
Lingerie was okay but customer service is terrible. Ordered a few pieces, they forgot to send one bra. I had to chase it down. Took too much time and was a complete hassle. They sent a peach bra instead of the pink one and when I reached out to them saying that it was the wrong colour, they completely denied and said 'it doesn't look peach to us'. I asked for it to be returned as it was almost $50. They deducted $10 and also didn't help with the shipping. So basically, I lost $20 and wasted a lot of time (sending 20 emails back and forth). I wish they copied customer service from Victoria's Secret instead of their designs and prices.

I feel like I spent way too much for what I ended up getting. The quality was fine, I guess, but nothing that really stood out. For the price, I expected a lot better. I probably wouldn’t order from essenther.com again, just didn’t feel like good value to me... 0 Reply

Torn because I used to really like them
I’ve been loyal to this brand for a while, so this was a letdown. I messaged customer support a few times and just didn’t hear anything back for ages. I kept wanting to give them the benefit of the doubt because I’ve had good experiences before, but it started to feel like no one was even reading the messages. Really frustrating, especially when it’s a company I actually wanted to keep supporting. 0 Reply

Less than one star.
Usually I read reviews before I buy. This time I didn’t. The “Australian” website looked convincing, but the product is Chinese. I bought according to the measurements of their size guide but it was way too small, obviously an Asian size. Plus, poor quality. I have put in a refund request via PayPal as I can’t contact the company even through the link supplied on PayPal. SHONKY! DON’T BUY. P.S. - PayPal granted me a refund immediately.
