Ian &Paul … the two delivery guys

Ian &Paul … the two delivery guys, went above and beyond to get my mattress to me ‘on time’…
Chantelle… from the office… was so incredibly helpful.
The ladies from the Portrack Lane Stockton branch, could not have been more sympathetic, helpful and accommodating.
I will certainly use this company (when the time comes) and recommend them to friends.
Thank you all.

Excellent service

Upon entering HSL my wife and I were greeted by Allison asking if we would like a cup of tea or coffee and then was shown around the various reclining chairs, guiding us in the right direction for a chair that would be suitable for me and her guidance was a great help in choosing the chair that would be good for me an order placed and looking forward to a comfortable time ahead

Great service at Portrack Stockton

Ali & Steph provided great customer service during our visit. We tried out a number of chairs to find the correct size and did not feel rushed. We had arrived quite late in the day but they were happy to let us take our time with choices. While the chair is not the cheapest on the market, we went for the one with most features which should provide great comfort to my husband who spends most of his days in one chair. All in all a great experience done with the minimal of fuss. Chocolate biscuits were great.

Visited Stockton on tees HSL store.…

Visited Stockton on tees HSL store today. Was greeted warmly by Steph. We were allowed to browse without being hassled. However, Steph and Alli were both on hand to answer specific questions we had about the product we were interested in. Great customer service from 2 ladies who were professional, warm and friendly. Would definitely recommend. Also HSL deliveries called within an hour of leaving the shop to arrange delivery in 3 days. Exceptional service.

Quality product, knowledgeable, friendly staff …

Took elderly parents to Stockton shop to look for chairs today. Ali & Steph (who was training) were both amazing, understood needs of both Mam & Dad quickly, made them feel at ease, taking lots of time to explain the options of chairs on offer and what each could do, allowing them to time to try each so they could make the right choice. They worked out best deal and explained cost, delivery times etc…great service by two lovely, knowledgeable ladies would definitely recommend HSL Stockton to all.

HSL Stockton are Great!

I was looking for a riser Recliner chair for my Partner and after seeing an advert on TV, I decided to give HSL at Stockton a go. On atrival, I was greeted promptly by Wendy and made to feel very welcome. She introduced me to her colleague Jackie and advised us to have a look at their range. I felt quite overwhelmed by the choice and I was unsure of what I even wanted. Both Wendy and Jackie were brilliant, showing me what was available, what offers were on certain chairs and explaining different motor specs and how they matched my needs. Within half an hour, they'd convinced me what to buy and explained the whole process from purchase to delivery. Afterwards, I felt very confident in my purchase and reassured that I'd bought what I needed. The complimentary biscuits and tea were a lovely touch. Wendy and Jackie are an absolute credit to HSL Stockton, both are knowledgeable, friendly and extremely helpful. I felt in very safe hands with both of them - excellent customer service.
