Visited the store with a rough idea of what we were looking for. So much to choose from, however store assistant George was Brilliant and assisted us on finding our leather sofa and riser recliner.

Overall a good experience

Overall a good experience
Had to wait a fair time for delivery. Not unusual with furniture companies .
I was under the impression these sofas (Poltronesofa) came from Italy - however the wording is Italian inspired. So not made in Italy .
Delivery was cancelled once .
Foot stool delivery ( the guys had a two seater sofa on their delivery note). So I had to stop them unpacking this any further - and they located the foot stool in the van . Although they said the sofa was down to be delivered to me . Strange 🤔
Time will tell how the furniture wears but we did invest in insurance.

Brilliant staff

Shannon was so helpful, followed up the visit with an email and let me know the sofa was reduced in the sale.
Ordered the sofas and applying for interested free credit was quick and easy with Shannon doing it all & explaining each step.
Only 5 weeks to wait for the sofas.

Delivery was too early

Delivery was confirmed between 7 and 12. On the morning my daughter (different phone number) received 4 calls and a text message, starting from 6am. The delivery team rang my door bell at 6:30. I said to them they were early and shouldn’t be here until 7am and they replied that they would have waited. Unsure why they rang the doorbell then?
The setting up of the sofa was fine just the delivery times

Good Morning Mrs Mulligan,

I hope you are well and thank you for your review.

I am vey sorry to see that you feel disappointed regarding the timeslots for your delivery.
I can see that the crew did leave the depot ahead of schedule, which resulted in them arriving with yourself sooner than we had initially advised.
Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Rest assured that I will pass on your complaint to our Distribution Centre management team to help us improve on our customer experience moving forward.

Mixed experience

I'm not enjoying my new sofa as I thought I would and have looked forward to receiving them. It is not as comfortable as expected and the surface leather is slippery making you slide down.
Secondly, I had to complaint and regularly check to know the status of my order.
Overall, I have a sour mouth taste.

Good Morning,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking the time to leave us your review.

I am very sorry to see that you are disappointed in the overall comfort of your new furniture.
The seating interiors are Foam which can be firm to begin with however we do advise that this does settle, and become softer, over time and in line with use.

I apologise that you felt you needed to chase us for updates regarding your delivery.
I can see that your goods were estimated to arrive at our Distribution Centre around 07/08/26 however this date can change by 4 weeks either side as per your terms and conditions. This information is shown on the order confirmation document provided once the order is placed.

If you have anything that you would like to discuss further then please do not hesitate to contact us on 0191 7313300.

Kind regards,

From start to finish perfection.

From start to finish perfection.
Having placed the order we were concerned if the new sofas would fit through the door.
On delivery day John and Josh did get both sofas through the door. They were friendly and professional in installed the new sofas.
No problems at all with delivery or installation.
We love the new sofas and the after sales service has been good so far.
Would definitely recommend Poltrone Sofa.
Thank you!

Fab service end to end…

The whole service end to end from purchase to delivery was great.
The only suggestion for improvement would be, when you have scheduled delivery of sofa (a bolt out of the blue!), pls do a courtesy call in addition to just a text message as you limit the customer's opportunity to be able to change it within a 48hr window!
