Warby Parker earns strong reviews for stylish, durable frames, an easy buying experience (notably the at-home and virtual try-ons), and consistently excellent in-store service and adjustments—so yes, the brand is good. Reviewers also flag weaknesses: lenses can scratch or smudge, frames may loosen or feel flimsy for heavy daily wear, fit can be tricky for low-bridge or small/wide faces, and home try-on availability can be limited.

  • I wear mine daily and get compliments all the time. Sadly, when a pair of limited edition frames I had a few years back broke, they were unable to help me. Still searching for that signature look those glasses gave me.

  • Great selection and great price. Only problem is narrowing done to just one pair to buy.

  • Cool and affordable! I have horrible eyesight and they were able to offer me the option to make my glass thinner and stylish for the frames I selected. The process of ordering try-on pairs is easy and genius! I have two pairs now!

    More trendy styles

  • I visited the store on 4th Ave in Vancouver and had a great experience. I had my eye-test carried out first by the optometrist on site then selected a pair of glasses. I found the staff onsite to be very patient and helpful. I've had my glasses for almost a year now and have nothing negative to report.

  • What's not to love about Warby Parker? As a grandparent of the DTC movement, Warby's growth and trajectory over the years has been nothing short of a spectacle They are a true category disrupter, bravely steering their ship directly into the high seas of competition with the likes of Luxocity - a global powerhouse Warby's value proposition is anchored in stylish frames, easy prescription, and middle-market pricepoints They've executed on this opportunity with near 20/20 precision I've had the pleasure of owning several pairs of Warby sun frames, and my wife sharpens her vision with their prescription frames and lenses. We are both very satisfied with our purchases and one of the better parts of Warby is that with their pricepoint it's not unreasonable to own several different frames...because...fashion

  • Love, love, love the at-home try-on. They offer cool styles and a great unboxing experience (including in-box copy, a nice case, and a fun microfiber cloth).

    Unfortunately many of the frames I've been interested in were unavailable for at-home try on, which was disappointing. Some of the frames don't feel like they're made to last, although I wouldn't call them flimsy. The quality matches the price point.

  • Warby Parker is one the brands I rave about with my friends! I love how everything can be done online. Being able to try on the glasses at no-cost before you purchase it is a huge win in my book. (Having insurance coverage is also a nice bonus!)

    Feedback

    The sizing can be hard to get right! However, I know that there are some Warby Parker physical storefronts to help fix the sizing.

  • I've only worn Warby Parker glasses for years now! Always a super easy customer experience and affordable price, while having the coolest designs.

    Feedback

    Some of my older Warby glasses had significant problems with lens being difficult to clean. With my new pair, it seems like they may have updated or switched their manufacturing?

  • I'm on probably what is my 5th pair of Warbys. LOVE the customer service, pricing, and options. Two stores are very convenient to me.

  • I love my Warby Parker frames! Super affordable, timeless designs and great retail experience. You can bring your prescription in (or they'll call your optometrist to get it) and you can simply select and try on different frames either at home or in-store.

    Feedback

    The case for the frames are pretty bulky.

  • Have been buying glasses from Warby since they started. They've become my go-to for glasses and prescription sunglasses (even though I'm not 100% in love with the shapes on my face) simply because the Warby experience is still (a decade later!!) just so much easier and more convenient than the traditional eyewear shopping experience. The eye exam is affordable and there's no binding agreement that you have to buy their eyeglasses like a lot of eyeglasses stores require.

    Feedback

    Would love to see more styles (in general) but especially acetate styles with nose pads for flatter Asian noses without nose bridges. There are a few styles but they're all "nerdy" or thin metal framed.

  • I have been wearing since 2010 after I went to a soft launch party in NYC. I not only love the high quality of the glasses/ lenses but also the company ethos and how they continue to evolve.

  • On my third pair of Warbys- because of style not because of the lack of quality

    Feedback

    I cannot think of anything to change

  • I've purchased a few times from WP, both pre-lasik and post (blue light glasses and sunnies). The frames are cool, but the lenses aren't great.

    Feedback

    If you have a strong prescription like I had, I don't recommend purchasing from them. I always had problems with they way the lenses distorted things.

  • I love their glasses and sunglasses. My favourite thing is that they have shapes for all sizes of faces. I have a child-sized head and found sunnies that didn't look like I stole my dad's pair. Great quality and they also commit to helping you with your glasses for life (e.g. they make them fit again if they stretch over time!)

    Feedback

    Nada, price points can be high but they're worth it.

  • Quality eyewear at a great price. Offer lots of styles and colors. Visiting the store is a lot of fun. Being able to try on several pairs from home is incredibly helpful.

    Feedback

    I hope they continue to create new styles and colors!

  • Hip/cool feel at the stores and great branding, but not sure the quality is where it needs to be. I helped my dad pick out frames for his every-day glasses. He had a pretty advanced prescription, and the store messed up the RX on his order. He ended up waiting months for the correct glasses to arrive. Kind of frustrating.

    Feedback

    Quality and expertise of the sales staff could improve, especially since you end up waiting for the RX.
