Joanna was very helpful when we were deciding on which fabric to choose for the settees and made suggestions on colour of walls, etc.

Only problem was that the colour samples she had ordered for us never came and we had to make a journey to the store to collect the shop samples and go back the following day. The samples have still not arrived so Joanna is having it sent to the store instead.

Excellent service.

We had looked at the website but wanted to see what the bed and mattresses were like in store. All the staff members we passed spoke a cheery good afternoon. Upstairs we were met by Louise who was very helpful and guided us to an alternative mattress that we were able to rest on. Louise was very knowledgeable about the products and we found her to be excellent, as excellent and as helpful as other staff members that we have been helped by on previous occasions. At no time were we rushed and after choosing the colour we made our purchase.

We were treated with curtesy and respect

We were treated with curtesy and respect. Our questions were answered and relevant information offered in a way didn't put pressure on us to make a decision straight away. At the time of purchase the salesperson again gave all relevant information and confirmed our order was completed to our satisfaction and understanding.

An excellent experience at Cookes

We visited Cookes after we had a frustrating and discouraging experience from an online company. We noticed immediately that at Cookes there were a number of staff ready to help. We explained that we were looking for a small sofa and were shown available items that were suitable. We were particularly interested in a Parker Knoll sofa from a new range. During the time we spent at Cookes we received excellent attention. Nothing was too much trouble and our numerous questions were calmly and patiently dealt with. We were given time to consider our purchase and everything was explained carefully. We would like to thank Cookes and the staff who assisted us for the level of service that is not often experienced.
