Unexpected delivery charges
March 1, 2025

I went to coolframes.ca (what I thought was a Canadian site) to order glasses. During payment it was noted that there would be no delivery charge, and I paid up front. When the glasses were delivered, I was informed that because they were shipped internationally, I would need to pay an additional $90 for the customs fee. This was entirely unexpected as I was under the impression the glasses would be manufactured in Canada. Upon contacting the delivery company, I was told that Cool Frames would have needed to use a different delivery service to avoid the charges. When I talked to them about it, they told me there was nothing they could do. I would not order here again.

The glasses I purchased give me a headache and it's because the progressive piece at the bottom of the lenses is too narrow. You wanted me to return them to have them checked (WHICH WOULD HAVE COSTED ME MORE MONEY). Then you wanted me to take them to an optometrist to have them checked (WHICH WOULD HAVE COSTED MORE MONEY). At the end of the day I figured it out myself. At the end of the day you don't even offer a wider option on your site so there is literally nothing that could have been done. WILL NEVER PURCHASE GLASSES FROM THIS SITE AGAIN.

I ordered frames with prescription lenses. Multiple issues and unhelpful customer service that I've called multiple times now. First, they have a misleading lens ordering process where by they don't tell you how long it might take up front (it lets you pick fast delivery 1-2 days for $9.99 but that's "after the lenses are made" (which can be 10-14 business days) but that is only shared after you have paid and in the order confirmation email. Secondly, it lets you pick blue light protection as an option (for no $s mentioned) when building your lens but it doesn't add it "unless you pick an "optional" upgrade" later for $149. Why give option earlier and then say it's optional?
After I called them to cancel the lens due to above issues, they wouldn't and shipped it to me regardless. The lenses are also blurry and not usable.
I've called them again and still no resolution. Can't get to a supervisor either. Not a clean business (misleading).

I placed an order with CoolFrames on December 3rd for a frame and prescription lenses for my child. At first, I received confirmation and a follow-up stating that the frame would arrive from the manufacturer in 3–5 business days. After waiting far too long without any update, I called on December 16th, only to learn that the manufacturer hadn't even sent the frame. Now they claim they won't have it until December 27th—well past the promised timeline. No proactive communication, no transparency, and no real effort to make things right.

As a result, my child has been left without proper glasses for more than a month. This situation goes completely against their stated delivery times and raises serious concerns about their reliability. I will be canceling my order and requesting a full refund. Once the refund process is complete, I will update this review to share my experience with how CoolFrames handles returns and reimbursements. For now, I can't trust this company and will be taking my business elsewhere.

Transaction was smooth and easy
September 19, 2024

Received my first pair of glasses and my vision was not quite right. I went back to the doctor who issued me a new prescription. I called Cool Frames. They said send the glasses back and they replaced the prescription in my glasses. Free of charge.

Love my frames
September 15, 2024

Received my frames they are so nice the colour is better than what I thought they would look like. They are super light and on the smaller size because I have a strong prescription so they are perfect for me.
Thanks
