I didn’t get the bed I ordered although shop say I did. When I questioned it I was told I had to “bed it in”. I’ve never heard anything like this in my time of buying a mattress. Wouldn’t change it as it was unwrapped(not by me) as a health issue. Left with an £800 mattress that does not met my requirements. Won’t be using Sterling ever again.

Knowledgeable staff not pushy!

We were looking to buy new electric recliner chairs. All the staff we spoke to were helpful however we ended up in the Himola dept and Elaine Sharp helped us. She was knowledgeable, not at all pushy and explained everything clearly. We went ahead with the purchase and are now looking forward to getting our new chairs in the coming weeks

Great sofas and chair.

The sofas and chair look great and are comfortable.

There were some marks on the sofas when they were delivered, however an appointment was made for a technician to come and fix any problems. This was done quickly and efficiently.

The initial process of selecting the furniture and ordering was good.

The furniture was delivered fairly quickly.

Overall, we are very happy with our purchases.

Absolutely outstanding service

Absolutely outstanding service from the Sterling Aberdeen flooring department. Over the course of a renovation project I have been back and forwards to view flooring options and the staff have always been incredibly helpful and not at all pushy for a sale. I was really impressed by Andrew who came out to measure and took time to explain the options available for our hallway and stairs, he was very friendly, patient and even explained to my 5 year old what he was doing. The communication has been excellent, and I have never been more impressed by an in store team than my experience with Kelly and Kirsty today. They went above and beyond to look after my kids while I was focusing on the paperwork, and they couldn't have been more polite, helpful and professional.

We’re especially pleased to hear your kind words about Kelly and Kirsty—going the extra mile to look after your children while delivering a professional service means a great deal and truly reflects our team values.

We will be sure to share your comments with Andrew, Kelly, Kirsty, and the wider team—they’ll be thrilled.
