Great range to suit all budgets and all without a pressured sales team.

We visited the Northampton store and were pleasantly surprised to be able to wander around without any pressured selling tactics. When needed, Scott provided helpful information (and refreshments) and left us to make our minds up. There was no pressure to make a purchase. We did choose something from the store and were happy with the whole process.

Quick and polite

Ally in store was brilliant. The drivers gave an informed time of arrival, were quick but with polite service. They took all the packaging away when they left too! Excellent.

Bringing the outdoors inside

While our in store experience was good, and the sales advisor was lovely and helpful, when it came to delivering our sofa our experience fell short.

We received an email to say our slot was 7:05-7:25, but when I checked the tracking link they were 10 drops away, they arrived about 8:10.

My living room is recently redecorated and recarpeted (hence the new sofa).

The crew who delivered our sofa kept their boots on inside our home with no shoe covers and walked all over our new cream carpet.

I appreciate given the nature of their job, carrying heavy furniture, removing their work boots isn’t feasible but I would expect them to be able to slip shoe covers on and off, especially with a brand new carpet in place.

The last time they walked across my carpet, before leaving was just to place a manual on the sofa, completely unnecessary.

Shame really, as otherwise faultless, the sofa looks lovely.

Good Experience

Had a warm welcome from SCS, other shops didn't even acknowledge me! Scott was helpful but not pushy which I appreciated.

Enriqué was also very helpful. It was a good experience. I hope the after care will be as good if I need it. First time buying from SCS, so hoping I can consider them in the future.

Badly soiled carpet and laminated floor

The delivery was on time on the day agreed. It was a wet day and the delivery men had to walk across grass to get in. There was no carpet protection put down and no overshoes worn. This resulted in a very dirty cream carpet with wet mud and grass, a laminate floor equally as soiled. It was a big job cleaning the surfaces, especially as we had to move the heavy sofa. What would have happened if you were delivering to an elderly or disabled person? How would they be able to clean up after Please can this issue be addressed. Carpet protection should be standard practice in any company. It has happened with other companies that have needed to enter our home.

Wrong item sent and not all the…wrong item sent

Wrong item sent and not all the electrical parts so the recliner doesn’t work. Tried phoning to sort out and on hold for 2 hours and counting.

Absolutely brilliant service all round

Absolutely brilliant service from Kingsley and Ehis this morning. They very kindly moved my old sofa outside for council collection and were professional, polite and very lovely all round! The SCS tracker is very accurate and Kingsley and Amis rang me beforehand to say they were on the way. Excellent service all round. Thank you.

Great service

Our two delivery drivers were excellent. They arrived and delivered our sofa with a friendly and professional manner. They made it look easy but we do know it’s very heavy.
Thank you very much.

Quality of product and feedback on delivery service.

My mother is really pleased with the quality of her sofa and chair.
Delivery men kept us updated re delivery time.
Unfortunately they did not put protective covers on their shoes and trod mud into her carpet. They did so once asked by my mother's grand daughter who then had to fetch her vacuum cleaner to clean the carpet.My mother is 90 years old with mobility difficulties so would gave struggled to challenge or indeed clear up the mud should her granddaughter not have arrived.
Apparently there was a distinct and ingrained smell of cigarette smoke left by the men
Learning: Advise delivery staff to wear shoe protectors on all occasions. Request that delivery staff refrain from smoking in enclosed spaces to reduce smell.

Extra costs and inconvenience.

We went to SCS after Xmas to get a new sofa. We measured the space in our living room. We arrived at the store and one of the staff members showed us some sofas. We wanted an L shaped one. They had plenty of choice. We chose one which would fit in our front room. We did question about getting it in our house and were told it came in 2 pieces and the delivery team would get it in the house no bother. We happily signed and waited for delivery. We were really pleased when they could deliver a month earlier. The delivery team got the first piece in but had trouble getting the second piece in. He wasn't happy and told us that this sofa has a high failure rate for delivery. He told us that the suite would have to go back to the warehouse and an upholsterer would need to take it apart so it would fit. SCS gave us the phone number of an upholsterer who could do the alterations. We rang him and he told us it would cost £220.00 to do the work. This has really put a damper on the whole experience of buying a new sofa. The service was really good from the company but they should inform people to check measurements before they buy. We know we have a quality product but it has spoiled the whole experience incurring extra costs on top of an already expensive product. We were told your company wouldn't pay this cost so this is why we wrote this review.

Good Morning Catherine,

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

I am very sorry that your delivery did not go as expected on the day and understand your frustration regarding the extra charges for the upholsterer.

It is a customers responsibility to measure the furniture, and ensure the goods will fit into your room of choice, which is why we would not refund any of the upholsterer costs.
I apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused you and that this may not have been the outcome you had hoped for.

Kind Regards,
Lynsey - ScS Social Media Team
