We had been planning to upgrade our old corner unit for a while, and decided that today was the day 03/08/26. Chose DFS metro retail park had a look around with no pressure or hard sell just us at our own pace.When we had made our choice then a member of staff became involved again with no pressure and no you must have this,that, or the other.
All done and dusted in about forty minutes,paid for delivery date set and all parties happy the kind of service we like and again no pressure,just freedom to make our own decision.

A pleasure to shop at DFS

The showroom is light, bright, friendly and well laid out, we especially liked the coordinated accessories.
The staff did not pressurise us, but responded immediately when we asked for information about a settee. He was friendly, helpful and gave us useful information about the settee.
Our order was recorded quickly with minimum fuss and we liked the fact the order was checked by another member of staff to ensure it was correct.
We were pleasantly surprised at the quick delivery time- only 2 weeks!! Very excited!!
We’re also impressed with the five year guarantee and our member of staff gave us valuable information about how to keep the settee in good order.
Altogether an easy, reassuring and pleasant experience, thank you we will definitely recommend DFS 👍

Greeted by friendly staff upon entering the store but didn't feel 'ambushed'. The lovely Emma dealt with us and was so smiley and helpful. A really pleasant experience.
