Singularly Useless

Singularly Useless. Delivered a sofa with a fault, took it back then redelivered the same sofa with the same fault "as new"

Store won't do anything about it. Don't bother, buy from someone else.

Good Afternoon Jon,

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review and for bringing this issue to our attention, your feedback is always appreciated.

First of all I do want to take this opportunity to apologise on behalf of DFS for the experience you have received, I have taken a look into this and I understand this situation must be increasingly frustrating. I can assure you this is not how we like to treat our customers.

I have taken a look into your order and can see this has been raised to the store manager please be rest assured they will be in contact to discuss this further with you.

Order with Josh

Josh was super helpful in giving us all the key information regarding all aspects of our purchase and was so enthusiastic about the product! He was not too pressuring when we entered the store but was on hand to help when we needed him! Very knowledgable and a great seller!

We had an incredible experience this afternoon. Unfortunately, I can’t remember the salesperson’s name, but he listened carefully to exactly what we were looking for and helped us find the perfect sofa for our new home.
He was informative, professional, extremely knowledgeable, and polite throughout. Nothing felt rushed, and his excellent customer service made the whole experience enjoyable. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase and would highly recommend this store to anyone looking for quality furniture and outstanding service.

I went with my 85 year old Mother to buy two chairs to replace the sofa that her belated husband died on. That was back in November 2025. The chairs were delivered on 18th of February 2026, and the drivers put the legs on. After the drivers departed, we noticed one of the chairs had one leg 3cm shorter than the others, which made the chair very rocky. We brought it to DFS notice, they sent someone round to confirm the default of the leg. We phoned several times, been to the store several times. We are put off every time, customer service are sorting it, then we get an email with a delivery date, then nothing. It’s a joke, 5 months on, still, nothing. What can we do? I’m still bewildered why the drivers put the legs on, the chairs are meant to be craftsman made!!!

Hello Stuart,

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are deeply sorry to hear about the issues you have faced with furniture and the subsequent handling of your concerns. Your feedback is extremely valuable, and we understand your frustration given the situation.

Please note all furniture is hand made to order but any legs still need to be screwed in, they come unattached on delivery to protect the goods in transit. After looking into the order I can see replacement legs have been ordered to fully restore your furniture and once we received these from the supplier, we will be in touch to fit them for you as soon as possible. Apologies again for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Kind regards,

We had a fantastic experience at DFS. We originally went in to help my aunty find a 3-seater sofa, but thanks to the great service she ended up buying the sofa, an armchair, and a footstool too!

Adam was brilliant from start to finish. He was friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. He gave us plenty of space to look around without any pressure, but was always there when we needed advice. His opinions on the different sofas were really helpful and honest, which made choosing much easier.

Nothing felt rushed, and the whole experience was relaxed and enjoyable. Excellent customer service from Adam – he's a real credit to DFS. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the store and will definitely be back in the future.

A sale well done

A personable young man willing to engage in conversation ahead of making the sale we wanted. Efficient and knowledgeable when the time came to fill in the paperwork. A pleasant experience.

I had looked online so was aware of what I was looking for. The person who assisted me with my decision was very pleasant and went through the necessary jargon. Very happy with the service received. Although I think the cost of delivery is very high
