The chair I ordered is beautiful. The delivery experience was terrible, the chair was wet, they left it outside my house and delivered it a day late

Not arrived yet. Disappointing communication

Hard to write a review when you're asked to leave a review before it even arrives and very lackluster communications!

Disappointed with the delayed delivery and that the item was listed as in stock while stock issues are why its said to be delayed.

Polite customer service the times we've spoken and it does seem like the issue is unlikely to be ongoing. However, particularly disappointing I wasn't informed of the delay when I first reached out after no communication about delivery 3 days in. Instead, they told me the stock would arrive the next day and it may well be delivered the following day, but they have to confirm when the stock arrived and was checked. It was then disappointing and a bit of a shock to receive an email asking me to confirm the delivery slot they offered of a full week later! With no apology or explanation for missing the quoted maximum delivery timeframe. The explanation given when I questioned mentioned a delayed stock delivery and that they were prioritising delivering orders placed while the item was in stock that were delayed.. however my order was also placed while the item was listed as in stock so it was a frustrating answer yet again and felt like they were trying to fudge the situation again and making excuses or not fully honest or they messed it up - hard to tell what the intent was there...
Massively more so as to have such a backlog to create a full week delay front that point they absolutely will have known when they spoke to me, so to have my hopes raised and that there was a good chance it would be delivered the day after and should be before the weekend and then be told it would be delayed so much and I was bottom of the list was more of a blow. Either their internal communication isn't up to scratch or they have some bizzare understanding of how best to manage expectations and not meeting their own SLA. Not just trying to sneak the SLA failure through without apology or note, but indicating I could expect it within days and then going back on their word so far.
Although the delay seems to perhaps be out of their control to an extent, the way the delay has been handled and the communication is a little lackluster.

Crossing my fingers that when it finally is delivered late that there is better communication and no issues with the order as I doubt any issues would be rectified swiftly from what I've seen so far.

Its also difficult to track your order. The first email I received gave a link that was supposed to show the status of your order but instead just links to a static invoice page. A little disconcerting not to get any indication when it will be delivered by halfway through the delivery window (not until I called to get one), given its a large item and so I need to arrange someone to be in to accept the item, so not knowing if there will be any warning for it showing up.

I do understand its not always their fault when stock issues occur, especially in the context of the last 2 years, but the very underwhelming communication really sharpens the blow and frustration.

That being said I'm really looking forward to receiving the items as they look great and good value (other than the inconvenience, the social event that I've had to cancel and the fact my purchase decision was party based on the quoted delivery timescales so in hindsight a mistake). The delay is disappointing but customers aren't unsympathetic if given the chance and you're transparent with them. Expectations setting is key to satisfaction (e.g. satisfaction = outcome - expectation) and it really wouldnt take much to improve the customer experience drastically. Just a little bit more communication, both as a standard and in light of the delay and SLA failure would make a huge difference. Even including a note upon ordering to say, we'll be in touch to confirm a delivery date, would really help start off with a more positive, anxiety free experience and warning about disappointments ASAP! (Like other retailers do)

Hi Mrs Curwen,

In response to your review, please see below.

The stock should have arrived last Wednesday but unfortunately there was a delay that impacted the delivery and was put back until this Wednesday. The transport team then prioritised overdue customers including yourself for delivery the next day i.e. this Thursday 23rd June on one of our own vehicles.

The member of the shop team at the time of your call was unaware of the delay, and yes we should have explained more on the email sent to you booking in your delivery and the transport team have been made aware for future reference.

Your delivery is scheduled to take place on Thursday 23rd June with the drivers calling approx. 1 hour before delivery. We always ask for the customer to respond back to the email in the 1st instance and if no response is made then the team contact the telephone number provided to contact the customer if no response is forthcoming from the initial email.

We can only apologise that we have let you down on the quoted lead time but can ensure you we would never try to mislead customers. We will take the points from your email at our next staff meeting and see if we can address your points to ensure we offer a better service going forward.

Thank you for the feedback.

Kind Regards
Pattens Furniture

Fantastic company, I highly recommend it. Communication with the company is very good, the quality of the cabinet [in my case for self-assembly] at the highest level. Thank you very much to the driver and his assistant for bringing the wardrobe elements to my 2nd floor, such kindness does not happen very often.

Easy effective service, ordered via website, got an email advising delivery date and that the drivers would call on the day with an arrival time. Quick and prompt professional service, would highly recommend and will certainly be shopping here again!
