The colour of the sofa in the showroom under spotlight was nothing like the colour situated in my sitting room with natural light or artificial light in the evening. A fabric sample was not provided... See more

We visited the Paltrone Sofas…

We visited the paltronesofa SCS at the Carlisle department yesterday looking for a new sofa, and we're so pleased we did. We found the perfect sofa that suits all of our family's needs, with a few extra bells and whistles that we absolutely loved.

Graeme was fantastic from start to finish. He took the time to demonstrate all the features of the sofa, showed us the different fabric options, and explained the warranty and care packages without any pressure. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience enjoyable.

We left the store to have a chat about our options, but thanks to Graeme's excellent service and the quality of the sofa, we came back later that day and placed our order.

Thank you, Graeme, for all your help. We can't wait for our new sofa to arrive and would highly recommend visiting Paltrone Sofas at SCS Carlisle if you're looking for great products and outstanding customer service.

We visited the Carlisle shop today and we were met by Charlee who was an absolute natural. She made us feel at ease and was happy to answer any questions we had. Charlee gave great customer service and is a real asset to the shop.

Ciao Mrs Ferguson,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking the time to leave us your review.

I am very sorry to see that you have rated us as * on this occasion.

I can see that this order was placed with us on 28/04/26. Your order confirmation document show an estimated delivery lead time of 19/06/26 which we do advise can change by 4 weeks either side.
The terms and conditions do state that all orders are non-cancellable once placed and in this instance your furniture was delivered on 18/06/26 so this did arrive with you on time as expected.

I am sorry if the outcome was not what you may have hoped for.

Kind regards,

A lovely experience

A lovely, friendly welcome from Vikki at your Carlisle store. She was excellent at guiding us through the many beautiful sofas and their choice of fabrics.
She never once made you feel pressured into a purchase but was on hand to show you the many fabric choices that best met our needs.
Once a decision was made she guided us through the price structure and explained fully the time scale and delivery queries that we may have had.
Everything was explained to us in detail with a beautiful friendly manner.
Vicki is an excellent team member and even supplied us with a delicious coffee.
Would definitely recommend.

Perfect!

I recently purchased a sofa and had an excellent experience from start to finish, thanks to Steven. He was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process.

Steven took the time to explain all the different colour options and materials available, making sure I understood the benefits of each fabric and finish. He was patient, answered all of my questions, and helped me choose the perfect sofa to suit my home and lifestyle without ever making me feel pressured.

He also clearly explained the ordering process and kept me informed about the expected delivery dates, ensuring I knew exactly what to expect. His communication and attention to detail made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

I’m extremely happy with my purchase and would highly recommend both the store and Steven to anyone looking for quality furniture and outstanding customer service. Thank you for making the whole experience so easy and enjoyable!

Very well laid out store

Very well laid out store , warm welcome from the friendly staff, our "salesperson" was Lily who was excellent all round, we also spoke with the manager who was also excellent . Quality products with plenty of options at a fair price. All in all it was a totally enjoyable experience. Highly recommended.

ITCHY

The service in store was excellent. As it is a long delivery time updates would have been helpful. The sofa delivered is considerably taller than the one tried in store. Also I have had several insect bites since it arrived.

Ciao Ms Bell,

I am pleased to see that you found the team to be friendly and helpful on your visit.
I have tried to call you today, just to see if there is anything we could have done differently to achieve a 5* rating.

We would really appreciate your feedback so if you feel happy to update your review, you can do so in your TP account by going to ‘My Reviews’, locating this review, and selecting ‘Edit’, where you can amend both the rating and review content.
