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.

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.

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.
