Good atmosphere in the store at Carlisle

Good atmosphere in the store at Carlisle. Was approached on entering offered help if required. Was left to look around at our own pace. If we needed help we only had to ask. Finally settled on our choice. Reece was extremely good at explaining options, timeline and payment schemes. He was very pleasant and relaxed. We completed our purchase with ease. Delighted with our experience. Thanks Reece.

Avoid this shop

Avoid this shop unless you are buying for a home you are in already. We were in the process of moving home and needed a sofa for the new house. With DFS’s ‘bespoke made to order’ service we decided it was best to order in advance of us getting the keys to the new house. The saleswomen assured us if the house was to fall through as long as we has a letter from the solicitor confirming it wasn’t our fault we could get a refund. Utter b******t. When the purchase of the house fell through DFS were uninterested. They just kept hounding my wife asking when they could deliver. They consistently went with the warehouse was getting a refurb so they needed the stock out nonsense. It transpires there was of course no warehouse refurb. Sounds like they pull that line on the regular unless they get their warehouse refurbed every 6 months. If it was up to me I would have told them to shove their deposit but they put fear into my wife that we could end up in court for breach of contract. Now we have a new unwanted sofa crammed into my wife’s elderly grandmothers spare room because we have no where else to store it. Thanks for the terrible service DFS Carlisle. My advice, buy your sofa from elsewhere.

DFS made buying a sofa easy

DFS made buying a sofa easy. They stood back when I needed them to and allowed my to make choices in my own time. The member of staff then processing the purchase was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Having had a previous bad experience with another company, DFS made buying a sofa a pleasure.
