Shopping for garden furniture
Went to John Doe looking for garden furniture. In the show room, Tina, the sales assistant was friendly and helpful without ever pressurising us in any way.
When the furniture we had bought was delivered, the two delivery guys, Scott and Simon were polite and friendly, and took trouble to make sure all items were placed where required.
All in all, a thoroughly enjoyable shopping experience

My thanks to Scott and Simon for their excellent service in delivery of my bed and sofa bed. Very happy with the service and very happy with the beds.
The only downside was that there was a long wait between ordering and receiving the beds. However, this was clearly communicated to me when I ordered them.

Just had another exceptional delivery from John doe.
Scott and Simon we incredibly helpful in putting the items in place, went through the instructions on removing wheels on the chest of drawers and cleared away the rubbish as well.

Outstanding service from Andrew and Simon. Nothing was too much trouble. Very respectful of our home when delivering new furniture and even took their shoes off with each trip back and forth from the lorry. Phoned ahead of delivery, great communication and extremely professional.

It’s nice to buy from a local company
It’s nice to buy from a local company, from people who know and understand the products they sell. The team at John Doe are very helpful and friendly. Simon and Scott who delivered and assembled the wardrobe were great: they let me know when they were on their way, took time to ensure it was assembled just as we wanted and were very friendly. They also took away all the boxes and packing materials too. Thank you!

When we first moved to Diss in 2016 JD measured and fitted all our curtains, blinds, and much of the flooring. As a result of their truly exceptional service we have since used them on numerous occasions and have always experienced the same timely service and quality goods. It's what I call "old fashioned and friendly"and makes for loyal customers every time.

Great service
Simon and Scott were brilliant! We had scaffolding up which meant they couldn’t carry the settees the quickest route but they were so professional and friendly that nothing was too much trouble.

Excellent service from Simon & Scott today such lovely guys. Kept us informed with delivery time & were very polite & helpful.
The type of customer service you want
Couldn't ask for better customer service - there when you need them but not in your face. Very knowledgeable staff who were able to provide all the information I needed on 2 different products I was looking to buy. On the first visit, the lady who assisted me was able to send off for a couple of free material samples for the settees I was interested in which helped to look at their colour in the light of my own home. On the second visit when I made purchases of settees & a bed, despite being assisted by 2 different members of staff each accompanied me back to the other once I had advised which settee / bed I wished to buy,. In addition, whilst I was advised the delivery time was 6-8 weeks, I was delighted to rceive a phone call after only 4 weeks to tell me my purchases were in store ready for delivery.
