Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the high quality of the products, particularly the sofa beds, and frequently highlight the excellent customer service received throughout their purchasing journey. Many people appreciate the seamless ordering process and the efficient, communicative delivery service, often noting the helpful and polite delivery teams. However, some customers experienced issues with the initial product quality, such as incorrect sizing or manufacturing defects, which required replacements. A few individuals also found the sofa beds to be too firm or had difficulties with assembly, specifically with attaching arms. There were also occasional mentions of delivery companies leaving items outside or a lack of communication regarding order status.

Where are the 2 reviews that I have already done - is there any point in doing a third ?

Clearly they haven’t been published - communication and customer service poor, not delivered within the 28 days as stated several times in the website, not delivered to room by 3rd party, bolt on arms took my husband and I nearly 2 hours because you can’t see the receiver thread to the bolt. Very heavy sofa made from MDF.

Hi Denise

Thank you very much for writing a review for us, we always want to hear our customers comments good or bad as this helps us to improve our future service. I did not answer this yesterday as I wanted to take the time to investigate properly both in our factory and with our third party carriers.

Your sofabed was ordered on the 12th March and was delivered to you on the 17th April. As you correctly state this is longer than the 28 days promised on the website. We passed this to our carrier on the 10th April which is longer than is our normal lead time and the 3rd party carrier unfortunately took 7 days to get it to you. This is not our normal service levels for which I can only apologise. I have checked through the notes that we get from the carrier on every delivery. It states that the sofabed was delivered to the room of choice, which in this instance was the Living Room. I appreciate that you state that this is not what happened. We will be taking this up with the carrier as we rely on them to provide the service level you expect and that we pay for.

You mention that the frame is made of MDF. We manufacture the frames in our factory from kiln dried birch with MDF panels, which is the norm for the furniture industry. I also understand that you had difficulties attaching the Bolt on Arms. We do provide instructions with the sofabed of how to attach the arms, however as this has been an issue I am going to revisit them to see if they can be improved.

I am sorry that we have fallen short of the standards of customer service that you would expect. Your is one of only 7 negative reviews we have received from 367 reviews. We are a small manufacturing business and we take any negative review seriously.

Should there be any other issues please contact me personally and I will endeavour to help.

Thanks

Excellent product and service all round

Great selection of styles and fabrics to create a customised sofa exactly as you want it. Communication re progress of my order and delivery dates was excellent. Delivery was expertly handled too, with my sofa delivered exactly to the 28 day timescale promised in the website. Excellent service all round!

Hassle free experience from placing the order to receiving delivery. The sofabed fits perfectly into the space, looks great, and is very sturdy both as a sofa and bed.

Great looking sofa bed

Great looking sofa bed, does what it says on the tin and James in customer service is really lovely and helpful. The only reason we’re not giving 5 stars is the the bolt on arm was a nightmare to get on, the screws didn’t line up well and at one point we nearly gave up, the instructions given didn’t really do much. At last though we managed!

A very efficient and reliable company

A very efficient and reliable company. James went out of his way to resolve a delivery issue I had, which was NOT their fault. I think he is a real asset to the company and would have no hesitation in recommending them. I am very pleased with the sofabed, good quality and well made. Many thanks James and Andrew.

Very pleased

Everything about this piece of furniture is as expected and promised. It looks good, is fairly easy to operate once you get the hang of it and it fits nicely into the room. I’ve not yet slept on it, so can’t comment on the comfort. Delivery was seamless, despite our house being difficult to find.

Sofa bed

Great great service from start to finish even gave us a courtesy call to ask if we would like to upgrade to a pocket sprung mattress free of charge as there was a promotion. Item delivered very impressed although colour was not quite as we expected however matches the decor and the product outweighs the colour.

Excellent quality and responsive customer support

The sofa bed was delivered in 3 weeks and 4 days, and it is very sturdy and nice. The customer support team- James to be exact- came back to me quick every time I needed an update, so it was a five start experience overall.
Now, there are place for improvements for sure, but my interactions with James was so good that it would cover all the shortcomings.
I needed the item ASAP so I have reached out before ordering and James said that they would try to deliver it in 2 weeks. After I put down the order and sent him the order number, he updated me that they don't have that specific fabric, so it would take more.
It would be best if I knew what fabrics are available to begin with, but since he immediately came back to me, I had the chance to change it if time was more important than the fabric.
Since we texted each other over WhatsApp, I could follow up with him asynchronously, which suits me most because usually I am in meetings and don't have time for phone calls.
The quality of both the bed and the sofa was really good. I bought the "Cheshire Double Box Bed" which is one of their best sellers. However, the top part is a bit heavy so if you buy it for an old guest, you'll need to set it up and back again yourself. I wish they could have made it a bit lighter or add a mechanism to help people with that, but other than that there is no complains. :)
The sofa bed is useful in more ways than what I expected and it was cozy to sleep on for my guests.

Hi Ash

Thank you very much for your order and for writing a review for us. It was James in our office that you spoke to so I will pass on your comments to him. I will also pass on your thoughts about the weight of the Cheshire Double Box bed to our MD Steve.

Thanks again for your order.

Great company

Great company . Beautiful quality sofa bed and have had guests on it all ready. It's a small double so only ideal for one adult or would be a tight squeeze. But it's gwat quality and fabric is lovely too.
