Excellent and friendly service from Fallon in Chester. Just wished HSL offered its own in-house recycling of old furniture when they deliver new items.
We were welcomed warmly and Richard assisted us in a most professional manner. He explained in great detail our options and this helped in our decision to buy the two chairs. Brilliant throughout t... See more

About HSL Chairs - Chester
Written by the company
HSL is an award-winning family furniture business with stores nationwide. We’ve been handcrafting and delivering beautiful furniture to provide true comfort for over 50 years. Making people comfortable is part of our DNA and that is why we do it.
We have spent over half a century making it our mission to understand the different sizes, shapes and needs of our customers. We have learnt how people sit, rest and sleep; how their bodies bend and move; and where and why they ache. We call this knowledge CleverComfort™, and it goes into the design and manufacture of every chair, sofa and bed we make – ensuring that our furniture fits the bodies of our customers perfectly.
Award Winning
HSL has also been recognised by The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise for one of our innovative designs, our wooden knuckle. The Queen’s Award for Enterprise is a prestigious award for recognising British businesses and other organisations who excel at promoting opportunity, sustainable development, international trade or innovation.
Made in Yorkshire
Whilst our roots still remain in Yorkshire, we have welcoming showrooms nationwide spanning the entire country and a national network of Home Visit Comfort Specialists performing consultations in our customers’ own homes.
Family Business
As we’ve grown, one thing that has never changed is the passion for comfort and furniture being at the heart of our business. We’re still family-run, we continue to hold traditional values in our hearts, and we have always been dedicated to providing a caring service and excellent value for money for all of our customers.

Delivery of new furniture.
Carl and Damion delivered our new furniture this morning and they were very friendly and polite. I had phone call half an hour before they came. Couldn't fault them. Also had good service from staff at Chester HSL.

Excellent friendly service both in the showroom and the delivery service.
Good communication regarding delivery and a phone call when they were nearly ready to deliver chair.
Carl and Kieron were polite, efficient and made sure I was familiar with the chair and controls.
5* for HSL
We love our HSL chairs. Just bought a second set. Wonderful for our arthritic backs. I've always found HSL as a company a pleasure to deal with. The delivery people were lovely ( Carl and Kieran). Happy to move chairs between rooms, nothing was too much trouble. Definitely a 5* company

Great customer service…
The staff in the shop were very helpful with helping me with the choice of chair. It was delivered before it's expected date by Cairon and Paul who brought the chair in and put it together then explained how the chair works and the guarantees.
A very satisfied customer
The whole experience with HSL has been really good, from purchasing in the Chester store with the pleasant and helpful ladies to the very efficient delivery by Alex and Greg.
Everyone was in contact within the promised time scale, the office staff were very pleasant and helpful, also the delivery drivers contacted within the promised time.
The staff
The staff, from the guy who came to my mum in law's house to demonstrate, to the delivery drivers, we're all extremely courteous and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much trouble. Mum in law is very happy with her chair. It is comfortable and really helps her to stand up without struggling. Craig and Ciaran were lovely!!!

HSL redeemed themselves in the end
A very variable experience.
Due to disability I required a chair specifically to help with my back and various other difficulties. We chose a chair and all went well until it was delivered. It looked discoloured almost immediately, but I was having a bad patch and it took a while to notify HSL. Two independent reviews later and apparently they said it was "pile shading" and that it was worn out by my use. When I felt better we referred our complaint up the chain to another person who said, "I wouldn't accept that!"
We then chose a replacement chair, with the original payment refunded and paid a load more money, but we now have a splendid chair that meets my needs and does not look worn.
Great staff in store, who were very helpful. One very understanding and helpful member of staff in head office. Beware "pile shading" and being fobbed off for something that isn't right.!

Due to unforeseen circumstances we decided not to go ahead with purchase that same evening. We were told we had a breathing space of 48 hours in which we could cancel with no penalty
However, 8 days have passed with no refund of deposit. We’re told it should take no more than a couple of days?
It can take 14 days to refund. Not told this at the time but now received today
Thank you. The showroom experience is very good.

Excellent experience
Great service in store from Richard plenty of information given and lots of questions were answered very patiently. No pushy sales just advice. Ordered my chair on Monday, it was in stock and delivery on Thursday. Kept well informed with regular phone calls from Carl and Lee. Arrived when they said and the put the chair together in the van so I didn't see any packaging. Then delivered it into the room. Very good experience and will definitely be looking to shop there in future.
I was looking for a comfortable chair…
I was looking for a comfortable chair for my mum who has advanced dementia and who has recently come home from a prolonged hospital stay due to a bad fall.

Thank you so much!
