Not sweet and over ripe

Although we were able to eat about 1/2 of the watermelon that was tasty, the other half was rotted, very soft and inedible. It can be tricky with watermelons, which is why I look for the large yellow spot where it was growing from the ground. The lines on the melon have significant knowledge on the taste and this watermelon had all the signs of a tasteful and fresh watermelon. I usually would return it for a refund, but time got away from me and I just threw it out.

I am beyond disappointed and frustrated with the consistently poor quality of watermelons being sold at Sam's Club. Time and time again, the watermelons are either severely under-ripe, overly ripe, flavorless, mushy, or completely unfit for consumption. Customers should not have to gamble every time they purchase produce, especially when paying premium prices from a retailer of this size and reputation. What is most insulting is that consumers are left absorbing the loss. Instead of receiving fresh, high-quality produce, we are being sold products that often end up directly in the trash — wasting not only money, but also time and trust. This reflects a complete failure in quality control and raises serious concerns about the standards Sam’s Club accepts from its produce suppliers. If growers cannot consistently provide quality produce, then Sam’s Club needs to reevaluate who they are doing business with immediately. It is unacceptable for suppliers to push inferior or borderline-spoiled produce onto customers simply to recoup their own losses. Consumers should never be treated as a dumping ground for substandard products. I will no longer purchase watermelons from Sam’s Club. Customers shop there expecting freshness, reliability, and value — not repeated disappointment and wasted money. A company of this magnitude should have far higher standards and far greater accountability when it comes to the quality of the food it sells. Customers deserve fresh, high-quality produce every single time, not excuses, inconsistency, and frustration. I wouldn't eat this if I were stranded in the desert.

Sweet, delicious and juicy.

Very disappointed. No flavor and not sweet at all.

Sweet and refreshing. Almost at peak.

Delicious and a great price!!

Great taste. Reminded of my childhood.

Sam’s watermelon is always so sweet and the size is a great value.
