Great experience

We were made to feel welcome. All our questions were answered and Chris was very helpful. We weren't pressured and were given time on our own to discuss colour etc. The ordering process was also very efficient.

Clearance item missing remote.

Clearance item I was interested in was missing the remote, battery pack and charger, meaning its full functionality couldn’t be realised. Sales staff listened, were proactive in sourcing the missing kit and the sale was made. DFS have cleared a returned item and I collect next week. Excellent Customer Service. Very happy.

i was only viewing today with the intention of looking for some furniture to purchase at a later date to replace and update my property which is currently undergoing major subsidence repair.
I had the pleasure of being assisted by the employee Chris who demonstrated superb customer service skills and was so knowledgeable and helpful and such a great role model for his company employees .
I ended up buying my furniture today and it was only the great non pushy service from Chris that made me do this .

A wonderful sofa

We ordered our sofa just after Christmas and the staff at DFS Colchester were so friendly and helpful. Our sofa arrived exactly as planned and, 6 months on, we are so happy with our purchase, it has exceeded our expectations.

Excellent customer service without the pressure

I popped into my local DFS after viewing the website and struggling to decide on the style of sofa I wanted. I was only intending to browse, but ended up finding the perfect sofa & armchair. Chris was extremely helpful throughout the process, answering all of our questions and clearly explaining the available options. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and not at all pushy, which made the experience relaxed and enjoyable. Excellent customer service and a great shopping experience. Highly recommended!

Chris and Kevin

I've spoken to lots of sales staff and looked in different shops. We decided to buy at your Colchester branch because Chris was fantastic and so was Kevin. Chris was so helpful and as i had to change the sofa etc which he emailed to me I had to speak to Kevin to order in time for the Summer Sale. I hope they both get some commission.
