Downtown have a great selection

Downtown have a great selection, no pressure by sales people and extremely competitive pricing, speedy delivery from order, and the two delivery men put on overshoe covers before entering, very obliging too.

Duvet purchase

The duvet I purchased was really good quality but unfortunately the colour didn't match my room so I returned it. The purchase was easy online and delivery was swift. Getting a return reference was easy, efficient and very quick and the refund was also paid promptly.

Outstanding service .

In spite of faulty carpet being delivered to Downtown distribution the staff acted swiftly and sympathetically to ensure disruption to our domesticity was mitigated. I would especially praise the staff in the carpet department and the carpet fitters who were magnificent , all a credit to the company.
Overall outstanding service which is a rare luxury in these modern times.

New sofa from Downtown

Buying my new sofa from Downtown has been a really pleasing experience from start to finish. Every member of staff were super professional, informative and helpful. I was kept abreast of deliveries right the way down the line. Even the delivery men were lovely, quick and clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Downtown and would not hesitate using them again.

Excellent service from staff at Downtown Grantham

We very much appreciated the help we received in store (Grantham) from Elizabeth for quite a significant number of items and Tim and Andrew for very carefully installing them in our son's first home. We were grateful too to Adrian Wragg (Manager) for the coordination of assembly. Most impressive customer service delivery and excellent products. Than you.

Reply from Downtown Stores

Dear Stuart
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.
We're delighted to hear that you're pleased with the quality of your furniture, but we're very sorry for the length of time it took to arrive. We completely understand that waiting from March until July is frustrating.
Unfortunately, like many other retailers, we have been experiencing supply chain disruption due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, which has affected shipping routes and caused delays to deliveries.
We are just as disappointed by these delays as our customers. Whilst we do everything we can to keep orders moving and provide updates wherever possible, these shipping disruptions are unfortunately beyond our control.
We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding throughout the process, and we hope you enjoy your new furniture for many years to come.
Kind regards
Tracey

Excellent service

Ordered in store and dealt with by lovely and knowledgeable sales staff. Delivery of chest freezer arranged very quickly. Unfortunately when the freezer was deliver it was badly damaged. Contacted Oldrids who were amazing in sorting the issue. The damaged freezer was collected 2 days later and a new one delivered at the same time.
