Ciao Deborah,

I hope you are well and thank you for your review.

I am sorry that it was not a good time to speak when I called you this morning and I apologise for the concerns that you have with your furniture.

I can see from the delivery report that the crew have provided photographs from 1 issue, a tear in the sofa, however I can see that you have mentioned concerns about 2 issues.
So that we can fully review this and advise on the next steps we would require some further photographs from you.
Please complete our contact form on the link below, under the option for manufacturing fault, so that we can ensure this is resolved as quickly as possible.

The link is https://enquiries.scs.co.uk/ however I will pop this over to you in an email also.

Kind regards,

Very nice experience

Very nice experience. I have one comment on the negative side. I don’t think you were as transparent as you could have been.
I’m nearly 75 years old and I need transparency as i cannot see the tiny print
When I came into the store I brought all the measurements for this furniture to fit. I also told the salesman that my property is really small and I was a bit concerned about it getting through the door. He assured me that they would know what to do if this was the case but he didn’t tell me that if this was the case then I would be charged £120
I’m not pleading poverty but I think I should have been told. The delivery man told me that they were not allowed to rectify this and they put me in touch with a furniture dismantler.
That is my complaint because financially your system regarding this has made my life for the coming month very hard

The people in the showroom were friendly and helpful and gave me all tge information I wanted without pressure.

The delivery men turned up at the predicted time, were polite and efficient, and the sofa is all nicely set up.

So far the sofa is just as expected.

No complaints at all.

Scs have really upped their game

I use to think scs sofas were old fashioned and quite dull. Well that's no longer the case. The show room is set out in a way that there's plenty of room to see the sofas properly. Lots of choices of fabric but not fabric overload. The staff were very nice with no hard sell. Well done

The consultant was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. However what matters more is the after sales service if something is not right. You have a good range of leather sofas which was very helpful in assisting us to make up our minds.

Had viewed what sofa i like when i visited the shop returned with my husband couple of month later shannon was very knowledgeable and helpful my only criticism was that you dont do sample material which would have been nice so i could match colours for the lounge it was going in

Delivery service

From excellent information on delivery times to great staff, who were polite and friendly. They showed respect for our interior and took great care in bringing in a large sofa. Set up the sofa and took all the wrapping away with them.
Very pleased.
One downside was the contact centre in Coventry . The chap was disrespectful and rude.

Excellent service

Excellent service from the moment we stepped into the store. Staff helpful,polite and professional, not at all pushy with sales. Everything explained clearly about prices, fabric choices and delivery.
The delivery team were also friendly and professional.
Biggest bonus, the furniture arrived 1 month earlier than estimated date,which for myself was very convenient.
Would definitely return to Poltronesofa in the future and would highly recommend.
