Wow! What a store!
Was wowed by the layout of the store, all the staff were welcoming, helpful and efficient. Coffee wasn’t bad either ;) Me and my boyfriend were really well looked after, and really enjoyed our time there, with plenty of sofas to choose from. Ended up buying a new sofa on our first visit, and can’t wait for it to be delivered!

Very good service from Elaine
Very good service from Elaine, who greeted us and asked if we needed help. We said we were just looking and she left us to it, we didn’t feel pressured at any time. We had a question which she helped us with Elaine was very helpful and we felt at ease.

The staff gave us space to wander the showroom and make a choice. Once we'd chosen, the salesperson was very helpful and gave us all the information we needed clearly and concisely. We also asked about reupholstering our current sofa, and again, the salesperson was incredibly helpful.
