Great sofas, welcoming store, helpful staff

We had a good couple of hours here, looking to choose a new sofa. The store was very welcoming - the bowls of snacks, and cinema room for small children, were clever touches. We were served by Tia, who was super-helpful, full of information and advice, and helped us choose the best fabric and colour too. Much appreciated!

We were welcomed by Tiegan who was really helpful, very knowledgeable and not remotely pushy.
It took us nearly two hours but we bought a sofa bed and left the store happy with our decision.
Nice layout, plenty to see and compare and the fabric and paint samples helped us choose a brilliant colour velvet. Thanks Tiegan. 🙂

The initial visit to the store was pleasant and efficient.
Unfortunately when we decided to amend our order a few days later - within the two weeks period - the experience was not so positive. The amendments were reported to Customer services on 6th October and we were told that we will receive the confirmation and refund in 3 days time. But 5 days later we still have not heard from them and no explanation for the delay was given. We have complained twice to the customer services but to no effect.

Great showroom to visit with kids

I came with my 7 year old son who was happily occupied whilst I could discuss my colour choices with the helpful sales assistant. Tia was lovely and helpful. As my son watched a movie, played chess and ate snacks I was able to complete a sofa purchase. Thank you loaf team, what lovely thought out space welcoming to families. My son wants to go back next weekend 😂

A bespoke and personable service from Tia at Battersea

My experience of Loaf Battersea couldn't be more superb. Tia was amazing - from her knowledge of fabrics to which mattress to pick. She was really patient with me as I tried and tested lots of options; and helped walk me through the flow of my room to work out what corner chaise to go for. A lovely bespoke service from Loaf, which made buying for my first home a pleasurable one.

Hello Cuddlemuffin!

We had a fantastic experience at the Loaf in Battersea! We had heard a lot about loaf from a friend of ours who loves her Squishmeister and we knew it was a top pick for us as first time sofa buyers. We could not have had a better experience, the store was wonderful and so comfortable and we were helped by the lovely Teigan who was an absolute expert, she really nailed that perfect sweet spot between being there every time you had a question and also giving us space to look around and make our own decision. Once we had narrowed down to our final two, Teigan helped us put together a quote, explained all the next steps and scheduled a follow up call with us in a few days - we could not be in safer hands! We were quite worried about the delivery and how our Sofa would fit and Teigan had lots of information for us to go away with and look at in our new house. She even sent us off with a little house warming present, how nice! Couldn’t recommend this store enough.

Fantastic experience at the Queenstown Road showroom

We went to the Queenstown Road showroom to potentially by a 2 person sofa. We had a fabulous experience with Tia who was really knowledgable about her product. She was also extremely patient as we were indecisive and really went the extra mile. I dont leave many reviews but couldn't recommend highly enough.

over 6 months wait, damaged item, refusal to deliver

I have never had such a horrible experience with any furniture company. We made our sofa order in May (!), with the initial order number SO922240. It was initially scheduled to be delivered in mid-July but was rescheduled three times (due to some manufacturing issues). In August, when my patience was running out, I tried to contact Loaf support to check on the status and also ask for compensation since it's been over two months since the first estimated delivery date. The first person I spoke to (Jack) was initially trying to investigate, saying he made a request to another team, but then he stopped replying to my emails. The other two people I spoke with were totally useless, promising to call back but never did.

Somewhere along the way, the number of the order got changed to SDSO929575, and I only accidentally noticed it in an email. No one from Loaf informed me about (1) the reasons the order # changed; (2) the reasons for the prolonged delay; (3) status updates; or (4) compensation. Eventually, the order SDSO929575 arrived, and to our big surprise, Wincanton refused to deliver it to the 4th floor of the building (the sofa did not fit the lift), saying that they are only allowed to do that to the 3rd floor. This meant we had to pay an extra £150 to raise it to the 4th floor. While I understand these are fair safety regulations, nothing about this restriction is mentioned on the Loaf website!

After all of these adventures, when we finally unpacked the sofa, there was damage (a severe fabric tear on the corner, which was definitely not the delivery company's problem, but a manufacturing one, as the item was securely packed when delivered). So at this point, I can't even organize the exchange since the delivery company will not deliver it to the 4th floor, and I would need to pay extra again. Honestly, this was the most frustrating customer experience ever for ~over £4,000. I am just stuck with this damaged sofa, and I would like to at least receive compensation from Loaf for the huge delay, but the customer support is not responding to any of my queries. I am feeling very frustrated and regret that I've chosen this company.

ADDITION: .... and after an hour of having the sofa in our living room we realized that ALL legs of the sofa are of different length, one is 14 cm the other is 10 cm, the others are 13 sm =))) So we are definitely returning it. But honestly I really question the competence of whoever was manufacturing this. This really feels like a joke at this point.

Hi Ekaterina,
I'm truly sorry to hear about the terrible experience you've had with your sofa order. It’s completely unacceptable that you've faced such a long wait and ended up with a damaged item. I can assure you that Meg is on it and has reached out to you today to get this sorted out as quickly as possible.
She has emailed you directly, and we genuinely hope to resolve this for you without further delay.
I promise to stay close to this until it is resolved.
Thank you
Jasmin

Avoid

A quick scroll down the page tells me I don't need to add my two pennies worth here as my experience is echoed by so many others, sadly. The system upgrade they undertook earlier in the year has crashed the entire operation, and having been in regular contact with them about more than one issue since July (when they eventually reply or answer the phone) I can tell you their internal issues are just getting worse. Spoke to Mohammed today after a very short wait on the phone (has everyone else just given up calling?) - he told me their systems are broken and that he cannot see any details about the delivery of my four items, which are now a week late, and that he'll add me to the list of customers requesting visibility on their orders, and that I shouldn't expect a call before Friday, probably. No point emailing again either as I'm still waiting for a reply to my most recent email sent 10 working days ago. I don't know how the company can survive this, with such a backlog of issues to sort through, and seemingly no end in sight. Not confident I'll receive my order based on the other reviews here and will never ever order from Loaf again.

Hi Laura,

I'm so sorry that you've not received confirmation of your delivery prior to today.

The majority of the system issues we've experienced previously have now been resolved, and so we're working through a backlog of customer contacts which have built up in the interim.

I'm glad that we've managed to get your delivery issues resolved this afternoon, and I look forward to the delivery of your order today. Let us know if you need anything else in the meantime.

Kind Regards,
Peter.

Avoid at all costs

Only order from Loaf if you have a lot of free time on your hands to deal with endless automated emails and unhelpful chatbots. Our order has been delayed by several weeks and Loaf could not care less about our situation.

Hi,

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience!

I'm really sorry to hear how frustrating your experience has been, and I want to personally apologise for the lack of clear communication and support throughout your order journey.

Delays are frustrating enough without being left to deal with automated messages and impersonal responses when all you're looking for is real help. That’s not the level of care or service we take pride in and I’m genuinely sorry we’ve made you feel like your situation doesn’t matter. It absolutely does.

A member from our team will contact you directly for a resolution.

Kind regards,
Manny.
