Woot Reviews

by Jansvan12

Had to delete the this app app to avoid being forced to go to the portrait only mode app when selecting to view an item from the landscape mode website. It used to be an option to view an item in Woot when using the website in the iPad. I downloaded Woot to periodically check if it fixed the problem of not rotating to landscape. Now it forces you to go to Woot , which is still portrait mode only, if you want to view anything. Since I use landscape view as it is a lot easier to view for me, switching to portrait for a single app is extremely inconvenient. Deleting Woot resolved the problem.

Ordered a Dremel rotary tool kit that was refurbished. Kit was missing the promised accessories, and the dremel tool itself would only work on higher settings. Motor was clearly damaged and not replaced or fixed properly.

Ordered another rotary tool, again it was missing all promised accessories and was sent in a cheap cardboard box. It was supposed to have its own carrying case, and much more.

Just received my Apple Watch, which is promised to have over 85% battery life by the this app product page. The one I received has a maximum capacity of 82%. Be skeptical of anything states in their product page, and verify you actually receive everything you order... I have had to contact support for returns/refunds on every single item I have ordered through this app.

One of the greatest things I loved about this app was the simplicity of having just a few good deals that changed every day or every few days. That's what originally drew me to this app and to download Woot ; the excitement of checking Woot almost daily to see what new interesting item was for sale or what new shirt design was available.
While the most recent update is much better than the initial redesign (doesn't push the non daily deal items quite so hard), the this app app has lost it's novelty and excitement for me. It's become cluttered and there's too much scrolling to view the different deals and I can no longer see the details of each daily deal easily. I truly preferred being able to just swipe between the daily deals and if I wanted to see more detail for a specific daily deal I could then scroll down.
this app was/is great because of the daily deals for me, the redesign has taken away from that and makes it just a general shopping app. I used to check the this app app much more frequently, now it's rare that I'll check it, which is a shame because this app offers some great daily deals.
Regarding Monkey Chat, I'm not sure how I feel about the look/icon of Monte & Mort now. It's slightly creepy, but I can't quite place my finger on why, my wife thinks it's because it's a stylized cartoon now.
I'm hopeful things will improve though, this app does take into account it's customers and their opinions.

I have tried ordering from your app recently and orders won’t process. I hit “place order” at the bottom of the screen, once I have confirmed my order and my payment info and address are entered, but the page simply reloads with the “place order” button back at the bottom. No error message and no additional information to complete. Please fix your buggy app. Also I have to hit buttons repeatedly to get any action from them. Woot used to work well. Maybe it is the latest iOS update that affected your app but I have a shopping cart full and want my items!!!!!!

Woot downloads fine to my iPad, you click on it and it takes a while to open up, then it asks you if you want to allow Woot to send you alerts, and then Woot just closes to the background.
When you click on Woot again it takes you to the loading front page but then it closes down again, repeat, repeat, repeat.
This happened the exact same way on my iPhone X, I had to uninstall, reinstall a couple times before it worked properly.
It still doesn’t work on my iPad, but it still sends me alerts on deals, but I can’t open Woot .

Constantly having to sign back in, re-enter addresses and payment info., verifying identity. I get that it’s for safety/security but it’s frustrating because you miss out on deals that sell out before you can finish all of those things just to make the purchase. Navigating Woot can be a pain as well - for instance, hitting the back button in a category shouldn’t take you all the way back out to main screen because then you have to navigate back to where you were looking each time. The top banner on the main page can be headache as it can scroll spasmodically.

Every time when I check Woot immediately after getting notifications all the deals that are really great are gone. Everything else would be an impulse purchase. It’s an observation I’ve also heard from friends that have and use Woot . I believe those good deals were never really available. I believe this app uses them as click bait. The user thinks “maybe if I check more often I can get one of those deals. In the mean time let’s look for something I had/have no intention of buying.” Better than Groupon though.

The redesign is nice looking graphically, but Woot ’s usability is extremely bad. For example, if you are looking at a particular product from a category - like a selection of MacBook Pros - and either swipe from the left or hit the back button to return to the previous page, you are taken back to the homepage with all the products listed instead of the list of just MacBooks that you were looking at before. It is simply frustrating. this app has great deals and their humor is fantastic, but this Woot needs some serious enhancements to the UI design.

What can I say? I’ve bought quite a few items from this app and Woot is pretty entertaining — but I hardly ever use it. Why, you ask? Because it is a pain in the derrière to use it with an attached keyboard like Apple’s smart keyboard or any of countless third party alternatives.

Like (I suspect) many others, I find it MUCH easier to type things like addresses and credit card numbers with a real keyboard as opposed to the touch screen type. But most external keyboards expect the iPad to be in Landscape mode so Woot is unusable unless you are willing to tip your head sideways until it is resting on your shoulder. And I rarely ever remove the keyboard because it makes a convenient stand.

Hey this app/Amazon!! I know you have a bazillion programmers devoted to figuring out what I want even before I do, and then making it EASY for me to buy stuff. Why not show some of the same love to the this app app? I know for a fact that if you made the this app app as easy to browse (and go down rabbit holes in search of stuff I didn’t even know about) that I would buy a lot more stuff. And I’m pretty sure that other people would too.

Update: thank you this app for fixing the issue & notifying me quickly!

Woot was great until I updated it this morning. Now when Woot opens it never fully loads anything. After about 10 seconds of trying to load Woot it kicks me off. It’s not my cell phone because it was updated months ago & I had no problems until I updated Woot this morning. If not fixed by the end of the week I will delete Woot & say good riddance.

Woot itself is not flawless, but quite good. My issue is that I’ve been using and recommending this app from 3 months after the Carrollton, TX reseller opened. It grew in variety of offerings and was wonderful to try new wines. foods and a bargain bin hodgepodge. Since bought by AMZN, the variety has slowly narrowed and now seems to be the outlet store for the Warehouse. I have appreciated their response to C-19, and hope this may be a turn back to broader offerings. But I don’t reccomend it to friends anymore.

Great concept. Fantastic prices. Amazing customer service. I’m a regular user and have had nearly 100% great experiences.
I just wish there was a search function. Ain’t nobody got time to browse every item in every category when I’m looking for something specific. The only thing missing is a search function. It sure would be nice to be able to search. A search bar would make this a 5-star. Did I mention it needs a search function? Hook us up, this app! Please....

by FullTimeTruckCamper

I love Woot , and the items that are offered. However, I wish there was a search feature to specifically search for current products. Sometimes I’ve seen something earlier in the day, or particularly in the last day or so and I cannot remember where I saw it. A simple search feature would come in handy!

by 46swans

I see stuff on this app that I don’t normally see online much less buy as a rule. However the low prices sometimes makes me throw caution to the wind and buy it anyway. Oh well, I’m usually happy with my purchases but it’s good to know that I can exchange or get refunds on items that don’t work out. Buying on this app makes me realize that I actually have a need for some merchandise that I never knew existed and never planned to buy. I guess Woots business model really does work!

by CarnieMan900

Very user friendly and great items offered. Even get email notifications when awesome items become available at great discounted prices. Always easy to work with love the variety of items that is offered through the website and Woot works very well with the iPhone iOS. Would highly recommend this app this app for anyone that is an avid Amazonian.

by AngelSeu

this app doesn’t always have what I need and I don’t always need what this app is selling, but when I do buy something, I can count on it being a good price, the correct item will be delivered quickly and they stand behind what they ship.

I’ve a couple of times that something showed up and there was something wrong (wrong color or the shipping company messed it up) and this app shipped me another one with no questions asked.

They are super easy to deal with.

I’ve had problems twice with this app. Both times it was amazing deals that I was so happy to purchase as gifts. Both times I’ve received notifications that they’ve shipped incredibly fast and received notification it was delivered amazingly soon (which is not the norm) but I never received the product. One day I received notification that the product was delivered on porch but I was at home and no delivery. I’ve gotten reimbursed quickly without problem but I’m left not exactly trusting them as much as I used to.

by CherriRip

Everytime I get a really good deal here, I am thrilled! Although sometimes I get a little too excited & find so many things that by the time I go to checkout, one or two things may have already sold out, -which is my fault! But additionally I LOVE THE CHAT OFF TOPIC Blog or whatever it’s called. I have found friends on the Off Topic Chat room that had so much helpful information I have been struggling to find & needed other people’s experience & advice on things like bone broth to help heal my digestive issues. It has been a Life Saver!!! TY this app!!! I LOVE U!!!🥰💓

by Fairladyz32nissan

this app has saved me a couples times. I noticed my shoes were taking in water at work, and I knew I couldn’t afford to get a new pair. I figured I would check this app to see if there were any deals. I got a pair of work boots and work shoes for over 60% off each! There are amazing savings on things you need, don’t need, and never even knew existed. Download this app right now!

by Bostonstace

I’ve had Woot for several years now and it’s one of my top 3 apps! I order from this app at least weekly and I have never been disappointed! The products are top notch and the pricing is ridiculously low! Selfishly, I hate to write such a glowing review because more people will be buying and I may miss out on great deals!! But this app has been very good to me & their customer service are incredible! Do yourself a big favor and download Woot!

Okay, it's a shopping app, don't get all freaky about it, it's functional, that's all that matters. But I've got to spank their monkey ... hello!?!? It's 2019 and everyone is using iPads or phones with huge screens - HORIZONTALLY - when are you guys going to accept that and give us a landscape mode? this app is one of only two apps I own that makes me twist my wrist to hold it vertical. How hard can it be?

by Upstate Downloader

I been lookin’ at & orderin’ stuff from this app! since B.A. (before Ama-“Mothership”-zon bought the Enterprise. I enjoy the free-wheelin’ ambiance; I don’t always read every monkeychat, but the format is familiar-friendly. The discussion forums, for the most part, seem to be peopled with observant, good-willed, mostly tech-savvy consumers who share their market research with humor. Occasionally a disgruntled shopper (with useful feedback), but as far as my experience goes, few trolls or shills. I was concerned that Mothership might change the “culture” but it feels as if this app! may still be employing its droll writers, letting their English major literary gifts lie fallow until it’s time to bloom. And the deals, while not universally the best, aren’t bad.

by Steph19671972

U just can’t find a better place to shop for deals....bought enuff stuff on this site to say everything is AMAZING and prices r even BETTER. Cheap shipping, GREAT products....what more could a shopper ask for??? Well, maybe a winning million dollar lottery ticket....so, I’ll keep my eye out for one of those on this site too!
THANKS this app FOR NEVER LETTING ME DOWN...more than I can say for most of my family and DEF all of my friends!

by Bammer56

I loved this app and the ap was great, but I don't like the new look at all. I checked it every day in the past, but not anymore. It's too hard to find the daily deals. I even hate the redesign of the monkeys. Maybe my bank account will thank you, though, because I'm not likely to buy from your site as often as I once did.

I’ve been a daily addict on this app since January 2005. this app has come so far from the days (nights) that only one item was available. I’ve gotten friends, coworkers, and family addicted over the years, but as I look back, I see the true cost of my disease. I’ve spent enough money such that my dream of owning a Tesla are unrealistic. Yes, this app has been a Tesla Killer for me.

by Bvision

I ordered what I thought was a pair of Bluetooth speakers a few weeks ago. Turns out it was a single speaker but ad photo showed what I thought was 2. Asked customer service for assistance in the form of a return. They got back to me quickly, credited my account and advised me to keep or give away in lieu of returning. A++++

Woot provides some of the most amazing window shopping deals, one minute you get bored and hop on. Next minute you’ve bought an exclusive deal for a double pack hyper chiller capable of freezing drinks in less than 60 seconds.... Stop taking my money please.. I beg you.
