The delivery times where as told
The delivery times where as told . I received messages and calls to advise me on the timing the sofa would be delivered. The guys where very helpful with helping me move my old sofa out the way .. they made sure I was able to use the recliner buttons and all the rubbish was taken away . Very friendly.

The delivery tracking system worked well earlier today and the delivery was on time. The delivery team assembled the 3 SEATER SOFA REF 10346908 which
was fine. But when assembling the ARMCHAIR
REF 10346909 the base was obviously not level with the casters fully engaged. One of the team adjusted one caster leaving the thread exposed which severely affected stability strength at the rear RHS of chair This has been reported back by the team with photo' added. Kind regards. Martin Holland.

I was given updates of the delivery up until the day of delivery, the delivery guys were top notch, having phoned when they were ready for delivery so i could make parking easier, they both friendly and helpful all the way through the delivery process and made sure that i was happy with everything
Sofa as seen in showroom and prompt and complete delivery
After reading the horror stories on facebook, I was extremely happy with my experience with SCS. The texts, emails and tracking works well. I received a telephone call to confirm they were 30 minutes away and they arrived shortly afterwards. The sofabed was brought in in sections and reassembled in the room. Very speedy and polite team.

Top Notch Delivery Service/Overall experience
Very pleased with the delivery service..infact, very pleased overall from start to finish. 💪💪
Two gentlemen came to delivery our furniture(1xarmchair/2xTwoSeater). Very respectful of the property and very helpful all round. They fitted the sofas and placed accordingly where we needed them..no fuss 💪👍 If I could add more than 5 stars..I would! 😎
Good service
Arrived before their predicted time , friendly and were very efficient in delivering our furniture

Very good service on time and friendly very happy and was tracked all the way
Delivery of sofas was great
Buying the sofas was the easiest part. Really good service and advice.
On the delivery day, Chris and Simon rang through to inform me when they hope to be with me (dependent on traffic around the Dartford area!) I think they were travelling from Essex.
Both Simon & Chris were pleasant, jovial and brought my sofas in and placed them where I wanted them. They made it look so easy.
Thank you
A very satisfactory delivery
The delivery guys called me to advise their time of arrival and were prompt. They were polite, friendly and efficient, and tidied up after themselves.
Good ambassadors for SCS.
Bonaci and bonaci were a great delivery…
Bonaci and bonaci were a great delivery team friendly and knowledgeable

Disgusting company
If you read all my reviews regarding our sofa from SCS you will understand this review.. we have never had such bad treatment from any company ever!! Our sofas were never fit for purpose we are now going through small claims court and after my last review they answered and said someone would be in touch to discuss further and once AGAIN nobody got in touch they never ring you back!! I’m not too concerned as this will all go for us with our court claim but just another lie they have told us! DO NOT BUY from this company. We will wait to see the outcome of the courts but depending on the outcome we will NOT leave it this company must not get away with treating customers like we have been treated! I have just read your reply SCS and I was told they would ring me by the end of Monday it’s now Wednesday!!this happens every time they say they will ring.. they DONT!! Once they get your money they don’t want to know!!

No one knew Colchester was close except me
It would be easier to say what went right than what went wrong.
It took over three months to get our order of 2 two seater settee’s. Firstly we got a date for delivery on the 18/07/2025 No delivery no calls text or emails. I finally got through to SCS and they informed me that the Colchester store was closed for refurbishment and nobody knew anything. After countless phone calls I got through to head office, I explained what was happening and you never guess what they put me through to the Colchester store which was closed. My temperature was getting high and not happy. A few days I got a text say my delivery was to be on the 25/07/2025 between 13.00 and 19.00, you guessed it no delivery. I stayed all day just case it came but nothing no calls no text nothing
On the 28/07/2025 I managed to get through to head office, after a heated exchange I told them to cancel my order and return my £500 deposit. I was promised my order would be delivered on the 29/07/2025 between 07.00 and 12.00. I got an email saying my order will be delivered on the 25/07/2025 then a little while later I got another email saying that it would arrive on the 29/07/2025
Finally my order arrived at 08.00 they delivered my order and left
I will not ever be ordering from SCS again, very disappointing
