To tell you the truth, I didn't use 1-800-Flowers.com for Mother's Day but I have been using them for more than six years to send birthday flowers to my aunt in January and also a bouquet of white daisies in a basket trimmed with a red, white, and blue ribbon on July 4th.  I have never been… read full review »

The flowers you order from 1-800 Flowers are not only affordable, but they are pretty too.  I love that they have such a wide price range, and the flowers are delivered fresh and on time.  I have ordered from this company many times and have never been disappointed.  They offer reliabl service, and the recipients are always happy.  I love that they work with local florists, so it cuts down on delivery charges and they have a wide selection available.  Starting at about $29.99 you get a beautiful bouquet, and they have flowers for every occasion.  My favorite part… read full review »

I'm surprised at all the negative reviews of 1-800-Flowers. I've used them for four years now (mainly through MyPoints.com, since I get extra points when I go through that site). I've never had a single order go wrong, and that's covering many floral arrangements for Mother's Day, birthdays, new babies, thank-yous, and more. — — I love the convenience of choosing a floral arrangement online and setting up the delivery options quickly and easily. 1-800-Flowers also gives me the option to save people into my address book so I don't have to re-enter information in the future. … read full review »

Love the quality of the plants and flowers that arrive from this florist. They always last a long time or live and thrive after getting them delivered. It for the most part is delivered ontime or if not, there is always a good reason. Living far from any of my relatives I resort to sending plants/flowers/gifts quite often during the year to let them know I am thinking about them. — I have only one problem...does a five dollar plant really have to cost fourty? — You tell me who's making money on my guilt. —… read full review »

Not only did 1-800-flowers.com deliver two days late, they were completely rude and unapologetic about doing so. All I wanted was the additional S/H charges I paid (to insure a certain delivery date) refunded. I tried to reconcile the problem with their customer service department for more than two weeks with no results. NEVER… read full review »

I received a beautiful bouquet of pink and white roses that were delivered by UPS the Saturday before Mother's Day.  The box included a note from my dear friend, a pretty pink glass vase, 2 packs of flower fresh, and well packaged rose buds.  The roses are still blooming and beautiful.   —… read full review »

I went to the site on Friday and was able to send a lovely gift basked to my Mother-in-law.  When we called her at my sister-in-law's on Mother's Day, she raved about the basked - she had brought some of the goodies to share and had more at home for treating herself during the… read full review »

 I am a last minute shopper!!  Even so I shop for quality, value and friendly service.  I used 1-800-Flowers.com to send my mom flowers for Mother's Day.  I waited until Saturday to start shopping.  Since my mom lives out-of-state, I knew the only way to guarantee next day delivery was through the Internet.  Since I am a MyPoints user, I tried 1-800-Flowers.com on MyPoints' reference.  Also I get to shop while earning points; for more shopping!!  On the 1-800-Flowers Website I was able to purchase flowers and candy for my mom for less… read full review »

While it seems to be convenient with a few clicks of the mouse, I will next time get in my car and go to a store and buy an armful of flowers for the same amount as 1800flowers. The birthday arrangement I chose in the large size was 49.99 plus 13.99 for shipping. I chose this arrangement because it was colorful and pretty. What my Mom in Law received was on the small side, dark colors, and looked like it was for maybe a funeral. I was very disappointed. While I do not ever order flowers because I know I could go to the store and buy them myself and make a much nicer arrangement, my Mom… read full review »

I purchased gifts from 1-800-flowers this year because of the wonderful specials they were advertising and their satisfactory past performance.  Trying to be an early bird, I ordered my flowers and took advantage of one of the sales.  The flowers I chose were boxed but "guaranteed" to be fresh; however, when my mother received them, they were dry, discolored, and literally falling apart.  She took a picture of the arrangement and I was thoroughly disappointed in them as well.  Additionally, the boxed variety requires some work on the part of the recipient -- … read full review »

For my mother's birthday I thought it would be nice to send her flowers. She's on the east coast so during the winter there's winds, snow, and storms. Given that I live in a place that is often consistent to nice weather, sending her tulips would be something she couldn't get there as easily. The flowers arrived on time, and they were beautiful. I didn't think it was too much--money wise--that is, until friends and such had shown me comparative pricing for the exact bouquet I sent my mother. After shopping around, after the damage was done, I paid an average of 25% more than i would have if I… read full review »

Last year I ordered flowers for my mother while she was in the hospital recovering from surgery through a competitor of 1-800-Flowers.  It was a terrible experience!  They accidentally put the wrong delivery date and she never received her flowers.  I had to spend about 3 hours on the phone before I could get a refund.  This time I decided to try 1-800-Flowers because I remembered a friend having a good experience with them.  It was a very smart decision.  My mom LOVED the flowers and they delivered them exactly on time.  The only nagative thing I could say… read full review »

I am usually a last minute shopper and with my mother living out of state you would think I should try to purchase something for her in advance.  As I sat looking at a variety of flower arrangements from different websites on Saturday I started to get discouraged.  Many of the arrangements I liked were sold out and not available for mother's day delivery.  I previously had good experience with 1-800 flowers and decided to check them out.  I was able to find everything I needed and received many compliments the next day.  They were delivered the next day before 12 noon… read full review »

I've ordered flowers at least twice from 1-800-Flowers, and can't say that I've had any problems with them. They have always delivered on time, to the extent that they can. By that, I mean that the flowers were brought by UPS (or whomever) on the right day, even if they were then left at the front door in the sun - that's a UPS (or whomever) problem, not a 1-800-Flowers problem, in my opinion. —  The flowers themselves have always pleased my wife, and she has had no trouble caring for them. They've actually lasted a good bit longer than flowers I've purchased over the counter from… read full review »
