Absolutely fantastic service!
I honestly couldn’t recommend Ableworld enough. My Nan is unable to leave the house, but this wasn’t an issue at all. The team took her measurements in store, spent time going through the different chairs with us and then arranged a home demonstration, which made the whole process so easy.
The delivery was also fantastic. Mark and Will were brilliant — friendly, professional and took the time to run through everything with us, making sure we were completely happy and understood how everything worked.
From start to finish, the service has been great, great, great!
Thank you to the whole Ableworld team for making what could have been a stressful process so straightforward. 5 stars without a doubt!

I have been paying almost £20 per month for yearly servicing. It's been well over a year now. When I rang to see when my service was going to happen I was told I would be put on a list and the wait would be about 12 weeks!
In effect I've paid almost £240 for nothing!

Do NOT buy from this company!
I would strongly urge against buying anything of high value from this company!
I bought a riser recliner for £1100 on 3rd October which was delivered to me on 17th October.
I was given a short demonstration once it had been assembled and all seemed fine. However, within a day or so we noticed that there was starting to be a smell coming from the chair similar to stagnant water. The smell became stronger as time went on and so I contacted Ableworld to ask if something could be done.
A manager was sent out to inspect the chair. He arrived and acknowledged he could smell something and so checked it over to make sure it wasn’t a mechanical/electrical smell. He confirmed that it wasn’t and said he would submit a report.
I received a very terse response from Ableworld Head Office saying that the manager had been unable to detect a smell and that therefore they deemed the chair to be working as it should be with no faults!
I am now left with a very expensive, smelly ornament in the corner of my living room. The chair STILL smells and when you sit on it you get a waft of stagnant water.
But apparently that is an acceptable condition to sell a chair in even if it costs £1100.
It seems it’s their word against mine even though I I have to live with this smelly piece of furniture, my opinion is worthless. As a disabled person equipment is expensive and losing money like this really hits hard so to be treated with such contempt by Ableworld is really distressing. If I was able to get rid of this chair I’d have to lose in the region of £800 minimum by selling on eBay and am not in a position to kiss goodbye to that amount of money!
Really VERY disappointed in Ableworld. Most definitely. Won’t be buying from them again and will be advising others not to also.
