I am finally writing a review for Envato.com, Themeforest.net. I have used them for over 8 years now. I really like the look of their website themes, especially for wordpress sites. They have a very nice looking products for a fair price.

So, why am I writing a review? So that those who are new to purchasing from Envato.com | Themeforest.net are aware of what they are getting themselves into.

EVERY wordpress theme I have purchased... and I mean EVERY... has coding problems. I have NEVER had a theme that I have not had to go back and forth with the author for at least 2 weeks, but usually a month, to try to get it fixed.

I will still use them as I like the look of the product, but I hope this review might stir the company to review and change their quality inspection of the sites before they post them for sale. I have purchased over 75 themes from them and I am serious... ALL of them had coding issues and didn't work properly as advertised. I have contacted Envato numerous time over this issue, but they have not improved their review process... so, I now go to pissedconsumer.com.

If you are using them to develop sites for clients, expect to wait at least 2 weeks until you have a working product to even show the client to review. Main reason is because the coding is a mess on a lot of the wordpress themes they sell. As I stated, I have not had a theme I have purchased that hasn't had a coding issue. I am sure there are a number that don't, but I haven't purchased one yet.

Please Envato! UP YOUR QUALITY CONTROL DEPARTMENT!!!!

Other than that, great company. All the other stuff they sell. Great stuff!!!

Reason of review: Not as described/ advertised.

It seems like all of these themes are scams

I have used themeforest for many years for the same reasons as others - the themes visualy look good. All are actually bad.

All themes have code issues. The worst part is you find out after you've spent 20-30 hours building the theme only to run into an insurmountable code issue that affects everything you worked on - I have purchased over 30 themes and every wordpress developer on themforest SUCKS. They are all from 3rd world countries. I have purchased themes and spent an entire summer developing only to find that it used Visual Composer and placed 20 pages of extra inline code on background each web page.

The pages took 18 seconds to download. Violating Google guidelines. The theme would NEVER rank in GOOGLE. Business would be lost.

18 seconds to download a page. I never saw that coming until I spent 100 hours. Themeforest did nothing and I never even got a refund. BEWARE!!

Envato is a criminal in a sense because they alow junk to be sold on their website. I am investigating a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT to get the money back from the time I spent.

They owe me $20,000 qand I will get it!! Here I come Envato -- you're going to get a *** kicking now - you ignorant ***
