Avoid - No interest after purchasing
Bought a very expensive sofa from Sterling Aberdeen and gave a 5 star review on the purchase process. several weeks later the sofa was delivered and assembled. The large sofa did not fit together properly and I was most unhappy with it. The delivery drivers noted my concerns and emailed the company telling me “a technician will contact you today to resolve the issue”. I also filled out the delivery notice with my concern which was going back to the company. That was three days ago and I am left with a £3000 + sofa that doesn’t fit together and no contact from anyone from Sterling. Very unhappy customer who will never buy from them again.
Update - Unfortunately despite response, no email was received. I have now received a text offering technician support.

Quality products, good customer service
We bought 2 beds. They are really good quality. The delivery was about 3 weeks after the purchase and the communication about it was accurate. I was a bit worried coz I didn't get loads of emails with updates but actually when I needed to hear, I did.
On delivery day one of the beds was the wrong colour and we didn't notice until they had built it. No issue, they unbuilt and took away the wrong bed, then the delivery of the correct one was arranged 4 days later.
We had a further issue with a mattress but it was rectified easily by their team. I'm really happy with my beds and have enjoyed the experience of dealing with this company so would definitely use them again.

Above & Beyond
My Mother has bought from Sterling for many years. Having items delivered to Skye. She is now residing in Aberdeen and has bought various items for delivery and in store over the last couple of years. We have been to many retailers and always come back to Sterling. The showroom is outstanding in its design and layout. Everything all laid out so sophisticatedly that it is impossible not to be able to create and dress an exceptional living spaces/s. Truly it's outstanding.
However, the main plus when you visit Sterling Bridge of Don, is the attentive and fun staff. They are either trained to a high standard or are just naturally perfect for the position. Elise attended to Mum and I today and she was more than enough. A credit to the store. We met Jason briefly in the passing and there is no wonder that he is a man with a beaming grin. His staff are a credit to him and Sterling as a whole. Nowhere matches the service, simplicity of service and the extra mile of attention and warmth. Truly a great experience shopping with you all.

Rectify mistaken order
Order: 281996
We had a mix up with the L shaped suite and motorised component being different from our order from Aberdeen store.
Steve in the furniture division dealt with us and helped us make a suitable change to another product. Steve is the Man. Courteous, professional and very personable. He put my wife at ease when he realised she was upset about the situation. His care, attention and expertise was exceptional. Steve made a very uncomfortable situation easy to navigate with a happy wife leaving the store relaxed and delighted with how Steve treated her and helped her chose the perfect furniture for our home. A great ambassador for his trade and employer. Hail Steve and we will be back for additional goods because if his treatment.

Disappointing from a company I had previously rated positively
I previously purchased a sofa from Sterling Home and spent a considerable amount of money there. At the time of purchase, I was asked by the salesman to leave a review on Trustpilot, which I did, and my experience then was positive.
Unfortunately, my recent experience with their flooring service has been completely different.
I arranged for an estimator to visit my home to quote for click flooring in my kitchen. He arrived around 15 minutes late and spent much of the appointment humming and hawing about various things in the kitchen. However, at no point did he tell me that the job could not be done. I was left with the clear impression that a quote would be sent.
Instead, I later received an email saying they would not be able to install click flooring because of the weight of my American-style fridge/freezer, claiming that the weight could cause problems with a floating floor. I was also told that the subfloor would need screeding but that this too was somehow restricted because of the fridge/freezer, which had been sitting in exactly the same place throughout the estimator's visit and was hardly a surprise.
If this was genuinely such a fundamental issue, why was it not mentioned during the appointment? Why arrange and carry out an estimator's visit, only to send what feels like an excuse for not quoting afterwards?
I emailed Sterling Home to express how disappointed I was with the poor service and the explanation given. To date, I have not even had the courtesy of a reply.
Having previously been encouraged to leave a positive Trustpilot review after purchasing my sofa, I feel it is only fair to now share my experience of the other side of their customer service.
Very disappointing. I will not be returning for future purchases or projects, and I certainly won't be recommending their flooring service to friends or family.

Good Morning Lorraine,
Thank you for your feedback and for your previous custom with Sterling Home.
We're sorry that your recent experience with our flooring service did not match the positive experience you had when purchasing your furniture.
Unfortunately, there appears to have been valid reasons why we were unable to install the flooring in your home, and regrettably this meant we could not proceed with a quotation.
We appreciate your comments regarding the communication around this and we have passed your feedback on to the Flooring Manager in Aberdeen for review and to respond to your email.

Sofa Shopping
Went into to Sterling a good few months ago for a look around and was seen to straight away. Matt was very helpful and helped me when I decided on a sofa. I didn’t buy the sofa then but came back recently and was again seen to by Matt as he remembered me from my last visit and made the purchase with his help. Very friendly service and made very easy by staff.
