Do NOT purchase any of the home-warming goods from KayleeandTepid.
Created less than 3 months, Kaylee and Tepid is the latest retail hoax to invade the online marketplace with unfounded home goods.
Operating with blatant anonymity the home goods featured for retail at KayleeandTepid reflect online savings between 30% to 50% off.
To learn more regarding WHY you should avoid the KayleeandTepid hoax we invite you to read our honest review.
About KayleeandTepid
Kaylee and Tepid operates as a minimalist retail site.
The site does not delve into their mission statement, who they are or what their alleged purpose may be within the retail niche.
Upon landing at KayleeandTepid.com, consumers are immediately visually engaged and able to see the varying sales featured across their “Best Selling Products.”
From there, consumers can scroll down the page and see a variety of home bedding sets and welcome doormats on sale.
These varying home goods are split up into 6 broad categories:
- Animal
- Sea Animal
- Sport
- Camping
- Book
- Guitar
Those categories can be further broken down into varying home-enriching goods.
Back-tracing products images from KayleeandTepid.com, will reveal that most of the images match product images from previously established online retailers.
This is not the first time we’ve encountered this practice, in fact, it is used by the vast majority of retail scam sites that we’ve previously had the pleasure of exposing.
So while you may see “products” featured for retail at Kaylee and Tepid, nothing is actually for sale.
Contacting KayleeandTepid
Kaylee and Tepid fails to provide identifying information on their site.
Their only form of verifiable contact embodies a contact submission form.
No reference to a corporate entity or telephone number can be found.
Located in the footer of the site is the following address:
24 Rue Jean Moulin, 94260 Fresnes, France
A Google Maps search of the physical address will reveal that the address provided is amongst residential or apartment complexes, we were unable to see any reference or entity referring to Kaylee and Tepid.
Email: kaylee@kayleeandtepid.com
Shipping & Returns
Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover and PayPal are accepted payment methods.
Many consumers have appeared to adopted the ideology that since an online site supports PayPal that they then, in turn, must be legitimate.
Sadly, as hundreds of consumers have been finding out the hard-way, that is not the case.
A refund policy of 30 days is mentioned in the Return and Refund Policy.
Shipping Times
Product Time: 5 to 7 business days
Processing Time: 1 to 3 business days
Shipping Time: 5 to 10 business days
Order tracking allegedly comes with each purchase order, although as we made known in the past, many similar retail scams have pawned off stolen tracking numbers as their own – we are uncertain if Kaylee and Tepid does this practice but it is best just to be on alert!
Site History
KayleeandTepid.com was privately registered on July 23rd, 2019.
As of October 11th, 2019, KayleeandTepid.com failed to reflect any SimiliarWeb rankings.
This suggests that despite KayleeandTepid’s relatively recent creation that the site, as a whole, does not receive much incoming visitor traffic.
In the past, we’ve seen countless similar discount retail sites funnel hundreds of consumers from social media outlets before really making a notorious name for themselves, we predict that if Kaylee and Tepid does turn out to be a scam that they’ll likely employ similar consumer-attracting practices.

Just received a duvet cover I ordered a month ago. The pattern is gorgeous but the Queen size is not the typical Canadian queen size and the material is cheap quality. I probably won’t order from them again.
Well I ordered a bedding set from them then saw some bad reviews and heard they were a scam! My order took FOREVER to come but im happy with my purchase and I dont feel like I got scammed at all!!!!
I also got taken by Kaylee&Tepid. Received the rug but certainly not the pattern I ordered. My 10×6 rug came all folded up in a usps bag.
i am definitely going to try and get it off my account..
Mine also came from Irwindale, CA. Cost them 13.68 to mail to me. They want me to spend close to 60.00 to ship to them.
My own fault. As someone else said to good to be true!
I ordered a sunflower sherpa large throw and had it sent as a gift to my sister in a different state. She called me and asked what it was. She thought it was a table cloth. It was so thin you could see through it. No sherpa just a thin piece of cloth. I contacted the company. They wanted pictures. I sent them a video. They offered me 30% back after I nagged them numerous times. I paid $70.00 for this. SCAM SCAM SCAM
Gianna, Obviously your unwillingness to work with me in order to resolve
this matter only further supports the negative reviews your company has
received. No where in your return policy does it state that the merchadise
MUST be returned to China when it was originally shipped from Irwindale,
California which, ironically would cost one third versus Shanghai, China.
As a former business manager of 34+ years, I understand the importance
of customer service, and that sometimes you have to stand your ground vs
“bend” the rules to satisfy your customer. The Octopus 8X5 rugs description
was totally deceiving seeing that it claimed that it had a ‘soft pile’ texture
which indicates that it’s created with a short yarn. What we’ve received is
nothing more than an oversized bathroom rug with a foam-like texture!
Unless this matter can be resolved today, I will have no further recourse
than to pursue having the charge revoked from my Visa account in the
amount of $99.90 along with filing a complaint with the Better Business
Bureau, and posting my interactions with you and your company!
Add me to your list of duped consumers! Ugh. I ordered the cute bird print “King size” bedspread from my phone (1st mistake and 1st/last time I did that) and my order did have several notices by e-mail that it was coming. It arrived within the 30 days, about 3 weeks, and was not a bedspread as I imagined, but a thin duvet cover that barely hangs over the edges of the bed. When I contacted them by e-mail someone named Mary got back to me immediately, asked me to send her photos of what I ordered, which I did, showing how the pillow case didn’t even fit to the end of the King size pillow along with an image of an actual King size bedspread on the same bed. Then I got another email asking me to send them the dimensions of the product I received, pointing out that I ordered the “King sized” bedding and that the dimensions were listed as smaller than usual bedding. Silly me, I didn’t measure or look up what King size bedding is supposed to be, I just fell for the pretty picture and ordered it to the tune of about $80. Thanks for these reviews. I will certainly check them BEFORE ordering in the future. Not exactly sure what I’ll do next, but I don’t expect to get my $ back or any type of satisfactory customer service. My bad.
Ordered Octapus bedspread for a double bed. Hangs over the edges about one inch and does not reach the pillows. Super light weight. Way way too small.
I just got my 8×5 rug that was $130 and it is lighter than a bath towel. No decent area rug is that light and flimsy. At the most, a product of this quality should be $50 I had ordered the rug after seeing a “money back guarantee – no questions asked”, but when I looked further into the policy it had a bunch of loopholes listed like: if the rug is on sale you cant return(they are all listed as being on sale); or if its removed from it’s original packaging(you have to remove it from packaging); or only if its defective(you can only see if its defective if you remove it)
The business says its France but they ship from China. There is no phone number listed, you have to pay for returns and you have to return within 30 days of ordering. I sent them a message but I have no hope they will help me, so I contacted paypal and I’m hoping so hard that they can work this out for me. I am so incredibly disappointed.
Cassie, I am sorry to hear you got scammed by these people pretending to sell quality products. Having seen some reviews, the pictures they dangle to trap our sense of art made me realize they were selling poor fakes of beautiful original designs.
It is my reality that any favourable reviews here or elsewhere are fake also.
I have ordered a lovely rug here in Canada from Wayfair.ca They are also in the USA. They have a great selection and offer good value for money. I talked to a customer service agent and I have been very happy with the items I received. Not sure where you are but my advice is don’t order on line unless you can verify the source of the products. I got scammed by a company in China. Received a jacket that was nothing like the picture advertised and in a cheap nylon type material. It was simply useless even asa duster. Good Luck to you in the future.☘️
Maybe before you trash a company based on a theory but no hard evidence, you should try ordering something from them. I ordered a rug from them a few days before I happened upon this article, and was in a panic for over a week that I’d been ripped off, but could only wait and see if the rug was delivered. It was, surprisingly quickly (I believe only about 2 weeks after ordering), and is as lovely as advertised. I was sent tracking info by both DHL and Canada Post, and was able to see when the item reached Canada and then was delivered to my home.
Martha, I asked a number of questions in order to find out if the company was legitimate or not. I didn’t receive any response to my questions. I find it hard to believe you received your rug in 2 weeks. The reason for my disbelief is that on their website they say different timing with regard to production, shipping etc.
It even takes longer than two weeks for items using post from the USA. My only order from China took 3 months and it was a small jacket squashed into a small Jiffy bag. A large rug would certainly take more than 2 weeks.
Has anyone bought the mandala carpet? I really had my heart set on. Now I’m afraid it will be crap and I won’t be able to return it
HI, I just received mine yesterday. While it’s not the thickest, highest quality rug (I didn’t expect it to be, given the price), it is as lovely as it looked in the picture, really gorgeous colours. I figure if it lasts me a few years, given the people and animal traffic in my home, I’ll be happy.
I bought two of them and they are cheap crap and not worth the $50 each that I paid. I have been emailing them about a return and am getting no where. These come from China and they are NOT individual made. Pure junk.
