1st Class Service!
Popped in to the store for a browse at new dining chairs. When we asked about certain models, the assistant was so helpful and friendly. She looked at different payment options and suggested stain cover. She made our purchase a great experience. Very efficient and 1st class service.
We opted to collect our goods from the storage facility behind Sainsburys. They asked what time we wanted to collect and had our chairs ready for us. All we had to do was reverse up to the door. The staff here were also very efficient and friendly.
Shop staff excellent and delivered on time
Shop staff excellent and delivered on time with no problem. Thank you
Absolutely brilliant
We have only had our furniture for one day but it looks beautiful and is so incredibly comfortable. I took out the insurance offered and this will ensure i can keep it looking as wonderful as it does now. The whole process was easy and communication was great. The delivery was really good too with both men doing a brilliant job in very warm weather. All round superb customer service and i would absolutely shop at Gillies in Perth again.

Robert was extremely helpful and guided us through choosing both a mattress and a bed that suited our needs. His knowledge and friendly approach made the whole process easy and stress‑free. I would happily recommend this company to others.

Annoyed that online the Amtico floor cleaner was in stock. I live in Perth so requested a click and collect service, yet it took a WEEK to receive my goods from store pick up

Good deal on the carpet
Good deal on the carpet, the fitters did a grand job quick and professional.
They arrived late in the day, it seemed to us they had a number of other jobs which had delayed them. Unrealistic programming by somebody.

Would have been 5 stars but 7 months from ordering to delivering is not ideal
The whole experience was excellent.
Sales people at the shop were informative and helpful. Having ordered and paid the deposit we were given an accurate waiting time. Arranging delivery was also excellent: we were told the day and then the time of which the delivery would take place. The two delivery men were very polite and professional, and were a credit to the company.
First time purchase from Inverness…
First time purchase from Inverness branch was a good experience, mainly due to sales person Kerry. Her professional yet laid back style and patience was a breath of fresh air. Full marks to her!
