Glad we stumbled across Loaf…
We are so glad we stumbled across Loaf in Edinburgh. We made a couple of trips to the store to purchase a new sofa. To be honest, the hardest bit is narrowing down the choice as all the sofas are gorgeous. It seemed overwhelming but the staff are very good in helping you reach a decision both in style of sofa and fabric. The information sheets are handy to take home to check sizes etc. It's a pleasant shopping experience, no pressure, just honest and caring advice.

Excellent Retail Experience
Staff were very welcoming and enthusiastic but without making you feel as though there was any obligation to make a sale. We were given plenty of space and time to browse. The show room was beautifully laid out and presented with lots of choice and information.

The staff in the Edinburgh store were…fantastic!
The staff in the Edinburgh store were fantastic! They welcomed us into the store and then left us to check out our shortlist of sofas. After a while when they could see we were choosing fabrics, they came to our aid and gave great advice. We have 2 sofas ordered and looking forward to having them for Christmas. Thank you

Stressfree experience purchasing sofas
Staff attentive and helpful, but not pushy.
Helpful to see the products in real life.
Product sheets really clear, and having both large and small samples of fabric ensured that one could see the colours as they would be in situ.
The fact that you can return your purchases if they do not suit up to 14 days after they are delivered is an unlooked for bonus.

Hi Hazel,
Thank you for shopping with Loaf!
I’m so pleased to hear that you found our team attentive and helpful without being overbearing, that balance is important to us. It's great to know that seeing the products in person, along with the clear product sheets and fabric samples helped you make a confident choice. I’m also glad the 14 day return policy came as a welcome bonus. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience!
Kind regards,

Great showroom service
We have visited the showroom a couple of times now, our most recent visit was to make final decisions on style colour and purchase. Sam was very professional and helpful with our questions and any items we wanted to view they didn’t have in the showroom he took the time to show us them in the website in 360 visual so we could get a good idea.
I was very happy with the service I received and the ordering process in store was straightforward and easy. Again sam took the time to explain all the different elements - insurance, delivery, pick up of existing sofa etc.
I look forward to receiving my sofas in November and hope the delivery process is as seamless and straightforward as the service received in store

It's great to know that the 360 visuals helped you feel confident in your selections and that the ordering process was smooth and well explained. We take pride in offering a service that’s both professional and supportive. So your kind words truly mean a lot.
I’m just as excited for you to receive your new sofas and we’ll do everything we can to ensure that the delivery is just as seamless as your Shack experience.

Patient, considered and fun
Incredibly patient staff. Interested and supportive. No rush. It has to be right for us and a full understanding of that. A bit of humour along the way helped. We were remembered on the second visit and Nikki (in training at the time) was fab.

I visited and bought two sofas from Loaf Edinburgh. Very nice shop environment and experience, and helpful staff on my several visits. However I have to reduce the number of stars as I’m so disappointed to have been hit with a £95 delivery fee upon paying. I think when customers are spending upwards of £4,000, this fee should be absorbed into the product price.
I’m looking forward to receiving my sofas in about 5-7 weeks’ time now and hope that all goes smoothly for the expense of it. I would dispense with the in-store toffees and bottles of water for prospective customers and re-direct some of that cash into (paying) customer satisfaction.

Really friendly staff who weren't pushy and happy for me to browse on several occassions until I took the plunge and ordered my new bed. Really important to physically be able to see and touch furniture rather just buying online.Show room is lovely as bright, spacious with a wide range of products. Now to save up for my accent chair and sofa.
