Poor service took a deposit for over £2000 worth of furniture gave us a delivery date and to pay the balance 5 days before delivery. Upon going to pay the balance then told it would be 5 weeks as the order isn’t generated until it’s paid in full!
Stuart the store manager advised this and then categorically denied anything. Now trying to cancel without losing 20% of our money through no fault of our own.

Very friendly and informative team..But.
Very friendly and informative team. But a warning....the car park isn't free so don't be getting a fine of £100 for parking! Turned out to be much more expensive than I thought! Not happy now! 😔
Not helpful at all, you should mention to your customers that your section of the car park is different to the rest.
