What merchants say about Dandy Shopify theme

We know about 20 reviews

Their updates create a myriad of problems with overall functionality. I have complained to Shopify already for not properly vetting this company. Positively, the design is good, but obviously their developers are below par and cannot keep up with their own internal bug fixes. No theme I have worked with over 10 years with Shopify has never had these may problems or dissatisfied customers.

The updates are a secondary problem. When I called for help all I received was finger pointing towards Shopify and when I called them they pointed fingers right back to you. I was not being unprofessional and did not call any individual a lier. REBUILDING A SITE EACH UPDATE IS RIDICULOUS AND IT IS COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL AND NOT WORTH THE TIME OR EFFORT. DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!!!

I bought this paid theme expecting basic product card alignment to work properly. Product grids and sliders look inconsistent, and support says fixing it is outside standard support. For a $100 theme, basic ecommerce layout should not require extra paid customization. Very disappointing.

The design is clean and user-friendly, with strong functionality. The overall experience is smooth, and the support team resolves issues quickly and efficiently.

This theme is awesome! It provides everything my business needs and produced 100s of sales in the 1st month. What is even more awesome is the customer service and team of developers who worked hard to provide a feature I requested, the speed of turn around and attention to detail is best in class, now my customers can enjoy features that make their shopping experience even better. Thank you!
