Nice flooring…

Pleased with kitchen flooring and most of the customer service. Clive was very helpful and understanding.
We initially chose flooring which when it arrived had an overall green look. We wanted a replacement which was eventually upheld but had to pay
extra for returning the flooring £500 which
still seems ridiculous. The fitter Stevie was great.

Hi Carole

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re really pleased to hear that you’re happy with your kitchen flooring overall and that both Clive and Stevie made such a positive impression. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind comments to them.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the initial flooring choice and understand how disappointing it must have been when it didn’t meet expectations. While we’re glad we were able to agree on a replacement albeit with unavoidable additional charges.

Thank you again for your comments and of course for shopping with us.

Pleased with my carpet and the ftting

Pleased with my carpet and the ftting. Staff were very helpful when ordering. My only complaint was that I had to ring, more than once, to get a copy of the sales form which I had not received. Also, conformation of my payments made.

Hi Jinty,

Thank you for your feedback.

We’re delighted to hear you’re pleased with your carpet and the fitting, and that our team were helpful when placing your order.

We are very sorry, however, that you had to contact us more than once to receive your sales form and payment confirmations. That’s not the standard of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention so we can address it internally.

We hope you enjoy your new carpet and thank you for choosing Sterling Home Uddingston.

Going to Sterling Store to buy a new Chair.

On arriving at the store and we went to the payment desk to ask for assistance as my Brother has got special needs.
The person there went on the tannoy and called for a sales assistant who appeared within a very short time she was called Catherine and looked after us throughout the process explaining things all the way.

Sofa shopping with Matt!

We were sofa shopping, and were approached by a friendly and helpful salesman called Matt. He gave us good information and advice, and was happy to give us time and space to make a choice. Matt is easy to chat to, and is an asset to the team.

Purchased a suite

Purchased a suite, was told it would be 11 weeks , then advised it would be 12 weeks , called them to chase up then told another 2 weeks.
Poor show , and wouldn't have purchased if I was given accurate time scale for delivery.
I'm sure they will hide behind the 'estimate' statement but won't buy again.
Remember it's an expensive delivery charge so makes it more bitter when it's weeks over the estimated time frame!

Response to response:
Here's a suggestion that may be a bit out of the box, why not adopt a customer service approach?... maybe offering a refund of the delivery cost....or what about a refund of the care package I also purchased?
I know that adopting a compensatory approach may be something outwith he levels of customer service you're used to, however it may eliminate some of the frustration caused.
You should Google ' customer service '.
Apologies cost nothing, unlike the delivery charge.

Thank you for your review.

We’re very sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand your frustration regarding the delays.

We always aim to provide accurate delivery estimates, but unfortunately, on this occasion, the timeframe was extended beyond what was initially communicated. We appreciate how disappointing this must have been, especially for such an important purchase, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and lack of clearer updates throughout the process.

Your feedback regarding both the delivery timing and associated costs has been noted and will be taken on board to help us improve communication and service moving forward.

If there’s anything further we can do to assist you or if you’d like to discuss your order in more detail, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our customer support team.

Cannot recommend Steve highly enough at the Aberdeen Store. Helped us with different styles and good ideas for accessories. We ended up with 2 sofas & footstool. Also got carpet arranged for our living room too. Didn’t rush us. Great customer care, what a star!! Thanks Steve!! ( only came in for a coffee!☺️)

The boys were punctual, efficient and even hoovered up most of the excess carpet! As an added bonus, one of them helped me move some furniture back into the room before they left.

Fantastic service

Fantastic service from a young gentleman named Ryan.
Ryan was so knowledgeable and helpful. From the initial interaction through to the completion of the purchase Ryan’s service was exemplary.
I spent some time browsing a number of areas of this lovely store. Every member of staff acknowledged our presence, which is so refreshing.
Definitely recommend a visit to this store.

I had a great experience and assistance today purchasing a Paul Stressless recliner chair with Matt in Sterling’s Aberdeen, Bridge of Don branch. He was really helpful letting me test the chairs for a good time whilst my son played and to price up and consider different options and requirements.

Delay without an explanation

Why wasn’t I told that there would be a delay in collecting my already paid for in full Lamp Table?
I have spent a considerable amount of money in the last year and a half with your company and I don’t appreciate not being kept updated.
