Good communication Simon and Scott who delivered the sofa where very professional and delivery was first class
Unhappy Customer
I bought an expensive sofa and paid extra for a 10 year insurance policy. In under a year the filling in the seat cushions flattened until it was uncomfortable to sit on, but the shop or insurers took no responsibility for this and I had to pay extra to have more filling added. After a few more months this also flattened, and my only option has been to pay again to have the filling replaced. The excuse given was that I selected the filling type when I bought it, which wasn't true, and in any case surely if the filling type is faulty the retailer should take responsibility.
John Doe's service is excellent when you're in the shop but fails badly afterwards. I certainly won't be shopping here again.
Faultless service
Stewart had endless patience while he was helping us choose a new mattress. He gave us lots of advice and made sure that we chose the one that would be the most comfortable for both of us.

What a fabulous experience from the point of deciding what to order with the help of the lovely people in the store especially Tom & delivery by Simon & Scott today. Best experience we have had with a furniture company. My husband had a fall whilst the delivery was in progress & the guys helped get him back on his feet. Nothing was too much trouble. Would not hesitate to recommend. Lynne & Alan

Office chair
I needed an office chair for home and Tom, the salesman, was extremely helpful when I was making the selection and he loaded the chair into the car for me. Allowing me to buy the chair from the showroom, rather than a boxed one, meant the chair was in use within five minutes of getting it home :)

We are extremely pleased with the service so far from John Doe. Leon and Danny have been so helpful advising us with the best carpets to order and Stuart in the furniture department with helping us with our bedroom furniture order.
