Absolute incompetence and disregard for their customer

We bought flooring from Sterling about a year ago. They came to inspect the floor prior to fitting, they fitted the subfloor after lifting the existing carpet and they recommended then fitted a vinyl tile. This cost over £6,000. We believed they were a company we could trust. In the past year the floor has cracked, separated in places, chipped and generally been a nightmare. Their fitters think the whole thing needs replaced. I’ve exchanged in excess of 100 emails and yet I still can’t get a full refund. I’m worn out, have an elderly relative here and really just want this to end so I can start again with a company who can do the job properly. This has been an endless nightmare and, while they seem to offer solutions, it’s never what suits the customer, who is the one who has suffered from their absolute incompetence so, if you don’t want to live a life of regret, do not go near Sterling. Beyond exhausted. I can’t see a place to attach photos so that’s a shame but think cracks, splits, poor finishes, raised section…
I’ll keep you posted but, still heard nothing! Clearly their customers are irrelevant! Just really low. It grinds you down. I’m assuming that’s their intention. They’re a giant company with all the power. The customer is a minion. Powerless. ☹️

Ordered two recliners in Dec2025 they arrived 26th March 2026 by 4th of April 2026 I found that the left hand back of both recliners had poor softer in fill than the right arms . Therefore that area had lots of creases . I complained with a date stamped photo of creases . The left hands at rear felt softer than right hand . Sterling homes sent 2 Technicians from different companies Their findings said creases were due to usage and softer leather which seems odd as front of same arm had no creases and felt more solid . Because the creases were due to usage after 9 day Sterling homes would not be fix poor infil . Also informed me that the assessment was under taken by Independent assessors I found that one of the company used works for Sterling Homes . I have lost all confidence in this company and would not recommend to anybody purchasing recliners due to my experience . I have always bought our furniture from Gillies and never had a problem but my brother bought two recliners from Sterling homes and had them for several months with out a problem so due to his recommendation I went to Sterling Homes . After 3 months the creases got worse and now the left arms look tatty and it depresses me . I do not expect to have paid for what I thought were lovely chairs in show room to end up with poor quality ones

Hi Mr Chung,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re very sorry to hear how disappointed you are with your recliners, particularly as this has affected your enjoyment of them over time.

Following your initial concerns, we arranged for two separate inspections by independent technicians. Both reports concluded that no manufacturing fault was identified. Based on these findings, we have been unable to uphold your claim.

We appreciate that this outcome is frustrating and regret that this has impacted your confidence in us.

Thank you for your feedback, which has been noted.

Sterling Home Experience

Our experience with Sterling was very informative, especially from David on our purchase of a leather suite, and then he passed us onto Sharon whom he informed us was great at her job. After choosing the carpet she sat us down and quoted us a price on both. Went away to think about it and few days later came back down to seal the deal, unfortunately David was off so Deane stepped in. Sharon once again followed the whole sale thru, what a great team of salespeople you have in your Birkenshaw branch, it was a pleasure dealing with them. Looking forward to receiving them late August .

Terrible service from day 1 over 3…

Terrible service from day 1 over 3 years ago with sterling.first sofa we received was faulty & had to be replaced within 1 year after much complaining to company.
2cd suite when it finally arrived had leather peeling from chair within 3 months of receipt.
Again after much complaining and company passing the buck to supplier they deemed to not replace the chair as you would expect but only the leather on arm of chair.
This leather took approximately 16 weeks to arrive.
The technician arrived to fit the leather but again the company had forgot to send it to my home address.
Yet another date & time had to be arranged.
New leather now on chair & we ll see how long it lasts though not hopefully.
I would not advise anyone to purchase anything from Sterling's unless they are willing to put up with possibly the worst service I have ever received in my life.

Good experience

The delivery men were fast and efficient. They brought in the two sofas, positioned them where I wanted then removed all the packaging and took it away with them. The sofas themselves are sturdy, well built and the material is of good quality. The accent cushions didn’t remain fluffy for long and have flattened but they are in constant use.

We’re delighted to hear that our delivery team provided a fast and efficient service, ensuring everything was set up perfectly and leaving your home tidy.

It’s also wonderful to know you’re pleased with the quality and build of your sofas. We appreciate your comments regarding the accent cushions—these can soften with regular use, these should plump up but if you have any concerns please contact our Customer Service Department..

Thank you again for choosing Sterling Home Glasgow, and we hope you continue to enjoy your sofas.

Excellant and knowledgeable sales staff

Every member of staff who I dealt with was extremely professional, helpful and knowledgeable. Donna in hall 5 called me to advise the sofa I was looking to buy had gone on sale and she would be able to assist me with ordering it. When I returned the next day Michael her manager was there to assist with the purchase. Unfortunately I didn’t buy it but had the chance to look through the outlet department, I found the perfect sofa for my lounge. Ryan was on hand to answer all my questions re the reasons why it was in outlet and was able to process my order with a 7 day delivery !! Amazing 🤩 I also purchased the fabric care plan and left the store with a super cleaning kit. I will not hesitate to return to the store to purchase more items for my home. Many thanks to all who served me.

I bought the perfect mattress for me

I bought the perfect mattress for me. I was given great advice from Karen who helped me choose my mattress and she gave me lots of time to make my purchasing decision. I bought during the sale so got a good deal and was able to get interest free credit for a year making it more affordable.

Excellent customer service

Our sales assistant Catherine was excellent. We were going to purchase a different sofa but she suggested we look at a couple of others which suited us better. She was also able to allocate additional discount as well as merging our delivery with another order we’d made earlier so saving a further £69. Very knowledgeable about products as well and no hard sell. Great customer service.
