3 seater reliner

From entering the shop to leaving the shop we were no way pressurised into making a decision on our product. Lauren who seen to us was very helpful and had plenty of knowledge about the product we were buying.

Painless experience

We visited the store with a view to purchasing a sofa and two armchairs. We found a large selection of styles and fabrics, the staff were friendly and attentive without being pushy, so it was a positive experience. Lauren was super helpful and very patient when working out the best options for us.

Last week Me & my partner visited the Sunderland store to view the corner sofas. We were undecided on which one we wanted, so the next day when I decided I rang up to place an order. A few days later I decided to call back over to the showroom & get a bit advice from someone as I thought I'd ordered too many scatter cushions . When the man put my details in the I-pad & he realised I'd ordered over the phone he said sorry I can't help you. If you need any help you'll have to ring Rebecca who you placed the order with & he just walked away from me . I was disgusted at the bad customer service. It's all the same company so regardless of who I'd ordered with , someone in the store should have helped me considering I was spending £4300 with them . I cancelled the order & I'll spend my money in s shop where they have better customer service .

We are very sorry for the experience you have received with DFS and we will look into feeding this back to the relevant store to avoid this happening again. I can assure you it's not how we like to treat our customers.

We appreciate you wishing to cancelling due to this and apologies again.

On arrival we were met in the store by Lindsay who made us feel very welcome. We bought a king size mattress, 4 dining chairs and recliner with footstool. Lindsay knew her products well and she answered all our questions to our satisfaction. I believe, that to have knowledgeable and friendly staff is a definite asset for DFS.
