About HSL Chairs - Southampton
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

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.

Visited Hedge End branch with Mum
Visited Hedge End branch with Mum, who was very apprehensive about buying a riser recliner chair. Lydia quickly put her at ease , expertly assessed correct size of chair and guided us through various options. We went back 2 weeks later after ‘thinking about it’ , no rushing us, not even when Mum changed her mind on colours!
The time spent, the refreshments offered, the patience and experience shown was wonderful. Mum received her new chair and sofa today and is absolutely delighted with it. The delivery and set up was was also very professional and completed cheerfully.
Huge thank you to all .
Excellent advice and service
Welcoming staff who were interested in providing us with the most suitable sofas for our needs, without pressure to select and buy as staff were not on a commission basis and were all occupational therapy trained. And the offer of coffee and biscuits on all three occasions we visited.
Riser recliner Aysgarth chairs
Staff in the shop were helpful knowledgeable and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. There was no hard sell.
We opted for express delivery and the goods arrived in 3 days at a small extra cost.
Delivery was excellent. The team moved the old chairs to the garage for future collection and set up and demonstrated the new chairs.
The store gave us several businesses that would collect the old chairs and we opted for Just Junk which incurred a fee. Having said that the guy who collected the chairs gave great service.
The new chairs are very comfortable and meet our current needs.
Very friendly staff

Good service quick delivery.
Jean was visited in the care home by the sales team to ensure the correct size chair was ordered for her.
Excellent customer service
We were helped by Maria who was very knowledgeable about the HSL product. She explained about having the right fit for each person. ie my husband needed the grande chair where i needed the petite size. It was also beneficial to know that the different sizes would help with support for our backs. Would highly recommend HSL.
Impressive service.
We were very impressed with the service from everyone involved with our chair purchase at the Southampton (Hedge
End ) branch. Everything was explained to us in a clear, concise and friendly manner demonstrating thorough knowledge of the product. At no time were we put under pressure to make a purchase. We were given samples of fabric to bring home to colour match with our furnishings and we returned the next day to buy the chair. My husband is looking forward to its arrival. We highly recommend HSL
