### 1/5 — Great concept. Poor execution.

*2025-10-03*

I’ve been using The Elefant toy library for almost a year now, and unfortunately, my experience has not been great. The biggest disappointment is their software lately– I’ve been facing an issue for over a month, and despite following up multiple times, the team has still not resolved it. This makes the whole process of browsing and ordering very frustrating. And the disappointment on my kids faces. 

On top of that, their inventory is quite limited. There aren’t enough good options to choose from, especially for kids who are in growing age. Many times, the toys that arrive are already worn out, which really takes away from the excitement of receiving something “new.”

The concept of a toy library is wonderful, but unless they improve their tech support, expand their collection, and ensure better quality control of toys, it’s hard to recommend The Elefant to other parents.

Honestly, I wouldn’t renew my subscription.

### 1/5 — Ages old toys and extremely poor service

*2025-03-25*

Toys are too cheap like bed time story books, guess in 10 etc. etc.. new toys are very few and always out of stock, you need to keep waiting and by the time it’s available it’s charm is gone.. also you are not gonna refund of your security and if you complain, standard response is no response, if somehow you can catch them I will get back to you in 10 minutes and you will never ever hear from them

Try your luck if you still wanna take membership from them..

### 5/5 — A Game-Changer for Toy Storage

*2025-01-06*

As a parent who’s always struggled with toy clutter, EleFant has been a lifesaver. I don’t have to deal with piles of toys taking up space in the house anymore. The subscription service allows me to receive a new set of toys every few weeks, keeping my child engaged and entertained. Plus, the quality of the toys is exceptional. They are always clean, safe, and sanitized, which is a huge relief. I can’t recommend EleFant enough for busy parents.

### 5/5 — So Much Fun For The Kids

*2025-01-05*

My children absolutely love receiving new toys through EleFant. They get excited every time a new toy box arrives. The variety is fantastic, and the toys are always engaging and fun. The fact that they can play with something new every few weeks keeps them entertained, and I’m happy knowing I’m not filling the house with unnecessary toys. This service has made playtime so much easier!

### 5/5 — Ideal for Growing Kids

*2025-01-05*

As my kids grow, their interests change, and it’s difficult to keep up with the new toys they want to play with. EleFant makes it easy to swap toys as they grow and change. The app is simple to use, and I love how I can easily manage everything from my phone. The toys are always fresh and fun, and the delivery is prompt. It’s an ideal solution for families with growing kids.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Toy Service

*2025-01-04*

EleFant has completely transformed the way we handle toys in our house. Instead of buying toys every time my kids get bored, we rent them through EleFant. The service is amazing—easy to use, reliable, and affordable. The toys are top quality, and I love that I can switch them out whenever my kids outgrow them. It’s a fantastic service, and I’ve already recommended it to other parents.

### 5/5 — Convenient and Practical Solution

*2025-01-04*

As a parent juggling multiple tasks, EleFant has been a total lifesaver! The app is super user-friendly, and I can easily browse through toys based on my child’s interests and age group. We’ve subscribed to a quarterly plan, and I love how convenient it is to have new toys delivered to my doorstep. The toys are always in great condition, sanitized, and ready to play with. It's so practical, and I don’t have to worry about toy clutter anymore!

### 1/5 — This is scam

*2024-11-17*

Please stay away from these people. They will try to convince you for taking 1 year membership with unlimited delivery of toys and once you take it and make the payment there won’t be any communication and you will not get any toy feom them. Please don’t believe them and stay away.

### 5/5 — Delivery at doorstep

*2024-11-05*

Kids loved the variety of toys. I saved huge based on subscription. There were few delays in deliveries and it is completely fine, as we understand startup’s will have hiccups at initial stage. I am confident this team will learn from shortcomings and improve in future. Keep up the good work 😎

### 1/5 — Order never delivered

*2024-11-03*

I would rate the app zero star if available. Ordered a toy on 30 October which was to be delivered on 31 October. However, it is 3 November today and I am still waiting for the toy. I guess it will never get delivered. All this library concept is a sham. Thankfully, I have got the subscription at ₹1/- only from Times Prime app otherwise I would have never paid for this app. Even ₹1/- feels like a waste for this app.

### 1/5 — Terrible service and zero support. Parents, stay away!

*2026-07-24*

Highly disappointed with the Play Max subscription.
After a few months of usage, I cannot recommend this service to other parents. The shipping is incredibly unreliable, with toys consistently arriving 2–3 weeks past the app's estimated delivery date. Furthermore, the company frequently cancels orders without any communication or notification to the subscribers. To make matters worse, their customer service is entirely non-responsive; both their hotline and WhatsApp channels route to unhelpful bots, and my email support ticket has remained unaddressed for over three weeks. This has been a deeply frustrating and regretful investment.

**Developer response:** Hi, we’re sorry for the experience and understand your concern.
We have your details with us, and our team will connect with you directly to review your account and help resolve this. This is not the experience we want any parent to have after subscribing, and we’ll make sure your concern is checked on priority.

### 1/5 — Total waste of money

*2026-07-22*

Worst toy rental app I’ve ever used. I purchased the 1-year subscription, and it has been a complete waste of money. Every time I try to rent a toy, the one I want is unavailable. The app shows items, but when it’s time to place an order, nothing is actually available.

The biggest issue is the lack of inventory and poor availability. A subscription is pointless if customers can never rent the toys they need. This has been a very disappointing experience, and I regret purchasing the annual plan.

I would not recommend this app unless they significantly improve their inventory management and ensure toys are actually available when customers want to rent them.

**Developer response:** Hi, please accept our sincere apologies for this, this is not the experience we want for our members. We have found your details, and our team will connect with you directly to review your orders, check availability concerns, and help resolve this on priority.

### 1/5 — It’s a SCAM - beware before getting fooled

*2026-07-19*

I am extremely disappointed with both the products and the post-subscription service.

At the time of purchase, we were promised that the subscription could be cancelled within one month if we were not satisfied. However, after receiving the initial few products, we realized that the quality was extremely poor and far below what was promised.

Since then, the salesperson who sold us the subscription has completely ghosted us. Despite paying for a one-year subscription, we have been left with substandard, poorly maintained products and absolutely no customer support or point of contact.

I strongly advise others not to take this subscription. Based on my experience, the promises made during the sales process were not honored, and the after-sales service has been non-existent.

Beware before signing up.

**Developer response:** Hi, we’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. This is not the standard we want any parent to have with The EleFant.

We take concerns every seriously. Please DM us your registered mobile number/order details or email us at support@theelefant.ai so our team can review your account, check what was communicated at the time of subscription, and connect with you directly to resolve this on priority.

We understand your disappointment and will make sure this is escalated internally.

### 1/5 — Poor Customer Service & Refund Not Processed

*2026-07-17*

I had a very disappointing experience with Elephant Toy Library.

After purchasing a subscription, the very first toy delivered to me was broken. I expected better quality checks, especially for a toy rental service.

The delivery time for replacement or subsequent toys is also extremely slow, often taking 10–12 days. The app does not provide clear updates or proper tracking, making it difficult to know the status of orders or requests.

The worst part has been the customer service. I raised a complaint and requested a refund, but I have received no response. Calling their customer support has been equally frustrating, as no one answers the phone. Despite multiple attempts to contact them, my refund has still not been processed.

Overall, the service has been unreliable, customer support has been unresponsive, and the refund process has been extremely poor. I would not recommend this subscription based on my experience.

### 1/5 — Terrible service and zero support. Parents, stay away!

*2026-07-16*

### 1/5 — Scammers

*2026-07-16*

They are pathetic. Tried their service . Once you take the subscription you are on your own. Takes ages to deliver any toy even in prime Mumbai location. Their terms and conditions are misleading and they do not even abide by own faqs. Even after mentioning in faqs cancellation is possible within 14 days they stop responding if you ask for cancellation. Their tone change and no one even care of your emails and calls. Believe me and avoid them at any cost. Contacting them and communicating them will take all your peace.

**Developer response:** Hi, please accept our sincere apologies for this experience. We take this seriously and want to review your case properly. We are unable to fetch your details on our portal, please email us your registered number and order ID at support@theelefant.ai or DM us and our team will connect with you directly to help resolve this on priority.

### 1/5 — Worst customer service

*2026-07-08*

Very disappointing experience. I subscribed expecting timely delivery, but my order was never delivered on the promised date. I contacted customer support multiple times through emails, chats, and support tickets requesting cancellation of my subscription and a full refund.

Instead of resolving my issue, they repeatedly closed my support tickets without my consent. They even offered to extend my subscription by 8 days, even though I clearly stated that I no longer wanted the subscription and only wanted a refund.

The lack of customer service, failure to deliver as promised, and closing complaints without resolution is completely unacceptable. I have been forced to escalate the matter through consumer grievance channels.

I would not recommend this service to anyone until they improve their customer support and refund process.

**Developer response:** Hi, please accept our sincere apologies for this experience. We take this seriously. We have found your details, and our team will connect with you directly to review your case and help resolve this on priority.

### 1/5 — Extreme delays in delivery

*2026-07-04*

I had high expectations from this toy library, but the experience has been quite disappointing. The biggest issue is the delivery time—it takes far too long for orders to arrive, which completely defeats the purpose of renting toys for children who quickly lose interest.

Another major drawback is the limited variety of toys. The collection is quite repetitive, and there aren’t enough new or exciting options to choose from. For a subscription-based toy library, I expected a much wider and frequently updated selection.

**Developer response:** Hi, we’re sorry your experience did not match the expectations you had from the EleFant. Your feedback is valid, and we’re actively working on improving delivery timelines, toy availability, and adding more variety across age groups. We are unable to track your details in our portal, please share us your registered details so our team can check your experience and help you better.

### 1/5 — Absolutely pathetic experience with the EleFant app.

*2026-06-13*

Our very first purchase was not delivered on time, and there was zero transparency in communication throughout the process. There were no proactive updates, no proper tracking, and getting in touch with customer support was a nightmare.

We requested cancellation and a refund well within the advertised 30-day refund window. On a phone call, we were assured that the refund would be processed. However, when we asked for the same confirmation over email, they stopped responding altogether.

To make matters worse, they have still not refunded our money or cancelled our subscription, yet they have conveniently changed the toy delivery status in the app to “Returned.” This is completely misleading, especially when the refund remains pending and the subscription is still active.

The lack of transparency, poor customer service, and failure to honour their own refund policy make this one of the worst experiences I have had with any subscription service. I would strongly advise others to think twice before purchasing or subscribing.

**Developer response:** Hi Mini, we're sincerely sorry for the inconvenience caused. We understand your concerns regarding the delivery experience, communication gaps, and refund process. Your feedback has been noted, and we can confirm that your request is being reviewed by the concerned team. Please share your registered contact details with us at +91 2246184888 or mail at support@theelefant.ai so we can provide you with the latest update and assist you further.

### 1/5 — Very bad service for cancellation of subscription

*2026-05-31*

I requested for the cancellation of my subscription five days ago, but I have not received response from the customer support team. I also sent email regarding the cancellation request, yet not received any response.
The customer support service has been extremely disappointing. While subscription received four to five calls everyday from the customer support team. However, when I requested cancellation, no one responded to my emails or answered my calls.

**Developer response:** Hi, we're sorry to hear about your experience and the delay in addressing your cancellation request. Please share your registered contact details with us at +91 2246184888, and our team will look into the matter on priority and assist you at the earliest.
