Delivery Service was as advised on email. The 2 delivery men brought the 2 tables into our living room and set them up quickly and correctly. We are very happy with our purchases and thank Gillies for our purchases.

Bed purchase
We recently attended the Broughty Ferry branch with our frail elderly mother. She was keen to purchase a new bed for herself. We were met with a lovely , patient member of staff ( so sorry cannot remember her name) who discussed beds and mattresses available. After trying a few, a bed was chosen with a mattress, payment and delivery arrangements made. We were advised to phone the delivery department the next day. The delivery team delivered and installed the new bed within a short time. The whole experience was brilliant and this has been thanks to all your wonderful staff . Our Mother is sleeping well at night and absolutely adores her new bed,
Excellent reliable service.
From buying
From buying. the table and chairs to the delivery,was all very efficient.Would recommend Gillies , very helpful.
Excellent customer service
No pushy sales person,we were left to browse in our own time ,when we did decide on our furniture the ordering was explained fully.We were given our order on paper which I prefer, aswell as a confirmation email.
A phone call when our furniture had arrived with the store to arrange delivery well within the time estimated.
The staff were very obliging when I had to call back and arrange another date for delivery due to old furniture not being uplifted by others in time.
Good communication on day of delivery with a 2hour slot and efficient courteous delivery.
First class
As always, from store visit, advice and help from Sales Lady, delivery update and as usual the delivery team, everything was first class.

Service was great from Linda in the showroom to the delivery men - very professional but personal as well
Excellent product and excellent staff support
The lady who aided our search was very patient and helpful as we were both unsure of the breadth and length of the narrow rug we required. As we were on holiday in Broughty Ferry we obviously could not nip home and measure up. However given that we had purchased a rug before from the shop, when on holiday in the town we knew that the quality would be excellent. Thus we made our choice and 5 days later are back home and the rug is in situe and we are extremely satisfied and happy with our purchase. Many thanks are due to the lady who helped us acquire the rug and special thanks to the man who rapped it securely for it’s journey south of the border on the train with us.

Gillies of Broughty Ferry
Gillies is our one-stop shop for everything relating to our household. This time we bought 2 x rugs to compliment our recently refurbished lounge.
They look great on our oak floor and were a very decent price considering the quality of the product.
I’d recommend Gillies if Broughty Ferry every day of the week.
A job well done, bravo!
Once again the communication, keeping us informed of arrival time etc was excellent.
The 2 chaps that came to fit our carpet could not have been more friendly and helpful, Norman was extremely knowledgeable and advised us on options on how best the carpet would sit adjacent to the tiled floor.
The standard of the work conducted was fantastic, with real attention to detail, and not a speck of dust left behind.
