Awful service!!!!!

The service provided by the recommended assembly company was horrendous. DO NOT pay for this service, the original assembly left a lot to be desired and when the same person came to rectify the number of issues he’d originally left he actually swapped a broken drawer around from the middle to the bottom and passed it off as if he’d fixed the drawer. We were told that at least the drawers open and close and so they are fit for purpose which on a brand new bedroom suite isn’t what you’d expect to hear. We finally accepted a small reparation fee as both the company & assembly firm weren’t budging with their stance. We definitely won’t be using this company again!!!

Hello Neil

We are sad to receive your 1-star review despite all the efforts made to resolve your issue related to your order.

I can see that we have been in regular communication with you regarding the assembly of your furniture and came to an agreed resolution.

You ordered a full bedroom set including a wardrobe, 2 bedsides and a chest of drawers.

The final issue you faced was related to one piece of furniture, which we offered to resolve by a free revisit with replacement parts or a whole new chest of drawers but you chose to settle with a partial refund accepting the chest of drawers as provided.

We strive to resolve all matters as quickly and fairly as possible offering resolutions according to our terms.

We appreciate your business and cooperation in the matter.


Best Regards

Exceptional service

So impressed with the thorough service from start to finish. Well worth paying the extra for the wardrobe to be built if you can; the expertise, care and consideration of the person sent to do this was exceptional. Thank you.

Poor Quality and Installation

Quality of sliding wardrobe is is non existence. Have two drawer units one of which does not even fully open due to sliding door preventing the drawer unit from opening. Think twice before ordering from hear..
I was told someone would be in contact on Monday 9/9 after your reply to this review to resolve issue. Now it's 11/09 and still no answer from anyone?

Hello Mr. Patel,
We are sorry to read your review which was posted without reaching out to us first to discuss and offering to resolve your issues.
We can see that you signed the satisfactory completion of the assembly of your wardrobe. However, we later followed up with you to address the quality issue of the wardrobe having small amount of glue residue seeping in between the groves and also the internal chest of drawers not opening fully. We agreed to offer a free assembly service re-call to rectify your issues and refund you for the internal chest of drawers.

I am pleased to see the resolution was satisfactory and you are happy with the wardrobe and service we have provided.


Best Regards

Brought 2 wardrobes for my kids room…

Brought 2 wardrobes for my kids room from this company at £699 each thinking that it would be better than Ikea quality but man I was wrong. Not only was it the cheapest quality, it was so hard to put together. Have had it about 6 months now and drawers are coming apart and the cupboard doors are frayed. I am so upset with this that I felt I had to come and pre warn anyone who tries to buy from this lot. Seriously wish I had just stuck to my guns and had gone to ikea. This is definitely unacceptable, not only is it expensive it sooooooo rubbish in quality.

Hello Diana,

We can see that we were in communication with you in January, 9 months ago and assisted in addressing your issues.

The issue related to your wardrobes were due to how they were self-assembled. we pointed out a number of panels were not fitted correctly and there were many misalignments that would affect the functionality of the wardrobes.

We kindly offered a discounted assembly service to assist you, which was unfortunately not accepted.

The scratches on your wardrobe were reported after you had completed the assembly and as per our terms and conditions you must report and send photos of any damages to parts prior to assembly. This is important for us to cover you under the warranty, otherwise the manufacturer deems it to be damaged during self-assembly.

Lastly we would like to ensure all readers and potential customers that our wardrobes are built at high standards using quality materials and if any unfortunate issues occur we strive to support you and resolve them to the best our ability including free replacement parts and assembly service re-calls according to our terms and conditions.

We sell 100's of wardrobes every month and a few unfortunate cases do not represent the true overall reputation of our brand with over 99% of happy customers enjoying our wardrobes since 2009.

My opinion of my bedroom furniture.

After a prompt delivery by a helpfull delivery driver the furniture was erected, very happy with my purchase, looks very nice and the quality seems very good. My only problem was 4 screws missing to fit top shelf, hopefully they are on there way to me.

So as my last review got deleted

So as my last review got deleted! All I’m going to say now is 13 weeks from ordering, I have had a damaged wardrobe sitting in about 50 pieces in my bedroom for months, and this company doesn’t want to rectify the issue. I’m now having to go through the process of trying to get my money back through my bank and getting help from trading standards. AVOID THIS COMPANY!

Great wardrobe

The wardrobe looks very nice and everything seems to fit together well. I was surprised that the company in charge of assembling it only sent one person and it took him 7 hours but he was vey pleasant and seemed happy to do the job. The wardrobe itself is as described and expected.

Milano wardrobe

Easy enough to assemble and looks really nice once in situ. Only found the instructions after opening every box, it would be useful to mark the box which has the instructions in.

Nice quality furniture

We ordered the Petra sliding door wardrobe for our son's bedroom, along with 2 small drawer units, one to go inside the robe, the other as a bedside table. Communication between us and your company has been great at all times with the items arriving early but plenty of notification. These are very heavy doors and panels so i would recommend either using the assembly service or making sure theres a couple of people able to lift/drag very heavy weights.
The furniture is good quality but took quite a bit of assembling over 2 days with 3 people on hand at times to support the panels so be prepared. It looks great now its in place and plenty of space. The only negative is the drawers dont exactly match the robe but are close in colour. I would definitely use this company again.

Wardrobe and assembly

The communication from Wardrobe direct and the fitters was wonderful, a convenient date for the fitters was made.
The wardrobe is sturdy, looks great, we are very pleased with it.
However, it took the fitter 8 hours to assemble it, my husband had to help the last 2 hours.
This is a 2 man job, I wouldn’t dream of not having a professional fitter to assemble it. Each piece is very heavy and it’s complex, time consuming task.

DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY

Avoid at all costs!!!

I have reported this company to trading standards, it's the worst company to purchase from! Terrible communication, empty promises and the most importantly NO WARDROBE. I purchased a wardrobe back in June and I've been fobbed off constantly, finally thought I was getting somewhere when my delivery was confirmed for 10am-7pm and they never showed up, no message or phone call to say they couldn't deliver. I've tried all numbers for this company and you just get put through to a switch board saying the company isn't on their database.... so protect your money and go elsewhere!

Hello Hayley,

There seems to be a misunderstanding and we are sorry to confirm that this review is not entirely true and very misleading to our readers.

I can see from our records that we originally delivered a wardrobe within the specified timeframe as promised although it unfortunately turned out to be the wrong colour.

Unfortunately, the delivery system blocked your re-delivery and we explained about this technical glitch in our communications with you over the live chat and via emails. You were also able to connect with us by phone and was advised we were working on a new delivery date.

Once the issue was resolved, we then offered 3 delivery dates to you over a period of two weeks, 2 of which you declined and the other which was missed and you subsequently requested a cancellation by email which we have processed instantly on the same day for a full refund.

We like to ensure all readers that we are a reliable and trustworthy company with over 10,000 customers and a few reviews do not always portray the full picture.

We always intend to deliver orders as fast as possible to keep rotating our stock and we have no interest in holding back or delaying orders. We understand that delivery dates may not suit everyone and some may fail for various reasons at times but we endeavor to offer alternative dates within a reasonable timeframe, as quick as possible, subject to availability.

Best Regards
General Manager

Well made and really sturdy

Well made and really sturdy. Clothes rail too high for normal reach - so holes redrilled. Needs more pre drilled holes to easy adjust height of rail. Drawers fit smoothly. Overall a good quality product 👌 ✨️
