I bought a watermelon last week. Thought it was good but got it home, cut it open and it was a hot mess! Paid $6 or more dollars for it and it was not even ripe! Had to throw it out. Wasn't making another 70 mile round trip to take it back to Sam's. Just might as well have thrown the money out the window on the way home! Shouldn't have to lose that much money on a purchase!

I think if your picking out your own watermelon you can pick out the best ones I picked out 2 on Saturday and juice half of one and my daughter got the other whole one they were good to us.I think the problem comes in when a shopper is picking it out most don't really care what they get, that's why so many negative reviews.

First watermelon was almost white inside and went into the trash and I had them replace the melon. Went to cut it today and put it in the fridge and found that it had exploded all over my kitchen. This is the third watermelon I have had from Sam's Club explode. This will also be the last. Researched shows the reason for it to explode is because is had a bacterial infection inside. Said to say I will never buy another melon from Sam's Club ever.

Now i know why so many of the watermelons go bad the day after we buy them. The guy who was transferring the water melons from one box to another was literally throwing them.. Once these fruits are handled roughly, they rot fast.. Please train your staff or change them.

I shop at Sam's for most of my groceries now that I am disabled. They are so wonderful that they bring my items right out to my truck and load them in for me. This is the first time I have ever given a bad review to Sams. The watermelon I purchased this week was soft and mushy inside. With a very soured taste. I salvaged what I could of about 1 inch of melon just inside the rind, but even that was tasteless. I'm on a fixed income so the price I paid was a good portion of my food monies. I guess it is just too late in the year to buy fresh watermelons in Michigan.

I was told by a lady not recommending me watermelon from sams , I didn't listen to her so I took mine 2 days after I cut it in half, it wasn't sweet, it was nasty from the middle part like a worm beat me to the sweetness of the heart of the watermelon its was so gross I had to throw it all out there was my $ 8.00. I will never get watermelon from there again.

Sam's watermelon qualifies as the worst, completely unedible watermelon I have ever tasted (that is saying a lot). Attempted to get a refund by taking the receipt to Sam's with a phone photo of the watermelon. The customer service agent refused, saying that returning the physical watermelon was required for a refund. Returning a heavy, sloppy, cut watermelon for a simple refund is a lot to ask (for their quality mistake). Makes me consider cancelling my Sam's membership.

I bought a watermelon 2 days ago. I am in northern Ohio. Yes I understand they are shipped in. DON'T WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY!!!! This watermelon is TERRIBLE!! It literally had no taste. No sweetness when right in the center. I wasted almost $7 on this. NEVER again will I buy a watermelon from Sams. We couldn't eat any of it. Yuck!! I just cut it up and took it out to the woods on our property and dumped the whole watermelon for the wild animals. Won't surprise me if they won't eat it either!!

Bought one of these on Friday, 6 October 2023, cut it open today, Saturday, 7 October 2023. It was dry and rubbery (unlike one I had to bring back last year which was mushy and rotten inside). Want to take it back for refund but it will be a hassle because of its weight, bulkiness, and messiness having been cut open, as well as the additional expense (both time and gas) of an extra trip to Sam's to do so.

Every year i take a gamble hoping thats Sam's has resourced juicy firm SWEET WATERMELON. I GOT JUICY AND FIRM WHICH IS BETTER THAN PREVIOUS YEARS BUT I DID NOT GET SWEET, WATERMELON NEEDS TO BE ALL 3 JUICY, FIRM AND SWEET. VERY DISAPPOINTED BC WATERMELON IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE FRUIT.
