“Super expensive poor quality wardrobes... AVOID this...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by trufy on 11/12/2019

Very unprofessional and ignorant stuff, all they care is money. They promise the world and they deliver very little. The designer would swear that they have their own fitters when I questioned it, but guess what, they subcontract all of their work to unqualified carpenters. We paid £5000 for a fitted wardrobe, if you can call it that. The finish product isn't anywhere near a fitted unit, it has gaps and excessive cork being applied between units/panels. However, no attention to detail whatsoever and of course, low budget material and hardware was used to manufacture it all. Let alone the fitting.... On top of all, the fitter damaged all my property during delivery of materials and the fitting of the unit. The floor and other surroundings were never covered/protected. All his tools were placed on top of my brand new bed and allover the unprotected oak floor. Anyways, when the job was done, fitter just packed his tools and walked away without cleaning his mess. Quite disgusted as I was promised the house will be cleaned as well as the wardrobe being left ready to put my clothes in. They forgotten to include the soft closing system when they manufactured the unit and came and fitted it all without saying a word. They agreed to do it when I questioned it but, they had to take the doors away to cut them shorter to allow for soft closing systems to be fitted. Of course as it was never accounted for the soft close, when they cut the doors cut them too short. WHAT tolerances this company works with??? A complete bodge!!!  There is more to write about my experience with SLIDEROBES, but I leave it here. Stay well away from them as there are better and cheaper firms out there, just requires a bit more research.

“Much better than expected”

★★★★★

written by VictoriaJune on 30/08/2018

I recently had a large Sliderobes wardrobe installed, from start (design) to finish (installation) everything was first class. Everyone involved was friendly, professional and helpful. I now have a bedroom that looks as if I paid three times more than I actually did. Everything was finished on time to a really good spec. Highly recommended.

“worst ever ”

★☆☆☆☆

written by Cornelius193 on 06/03/2017

Spent a lot of money getting 2 wardrobes in my house over 12k. 18 faults or problems in wardrobes when fitter left, joining two pieces of timber in main panels where should be one piece, chip out of wood, bigger gaps than should be, screws missing, caps missing, uprights not straight, very poor workmanship , hopefully they will sort it out as after service isn't great I'll update when sorted. Over priced defo better value for money out there. Part 2 The dispute is now finalized , they came out to house to fix problems, only fixed some, created more cracked two skirting boards, left more gaps, the units that was in showroom has no silver caps holding backs of wardrobes on where in one of my wardrobes i had 70 ugly silver caps doesnt look anything like showroom, still gaps between doors, one of the finish on one of the filler pieces on front of wardrobe is different, chalk missing in parts of filler piece, screw hole in one of shelves, three hand prints on one of the walls, some scuffs on them. The funny part is now they are taking me to court as this is to sliderobes standards i will upload pictures later to show what im talking about.

“AVOID Sliderobes at ALL costs!!!!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 04/08/2016

We originally chose to use Sliderobes as they seemed to be far better quality than the rest of their competitors off the high street and the wardrobes looked great. We promptly chose our designs for the two wardrobes and then arranged for one of their fitters to come around to give a quote. The lady turned up who worked out all the dimensions and then finally gave us a quote. The lady was great and had a great persona about her. The quote turned out to be towards the higher end of the spectrum, but being a permanent fixture in the house I thought this would be worth it and will certainly add value to the house. We decided to go along with the quote. About three weeks later I receive a phone call from Sliderobes (a lady in finance around Chelmsford / Basildon area) to arrange a fitting date. She mentioned that you could ONLY have two different dates (two days side by side) one mid month and one towards the end of the month. She was quite abrupt and rude but I still went ahead with the order (as I wanted my wardrobes) and I chose the two days mid month. Now, this phone call was on Friday and then I promptly received another phone call the following Monday morning from the lady to tell me that I could NO LONGER have the two dates I chose but instead I would have to have two separate days with about a week in-between them. I did not want this as I wanted the two wardrobes done together in two days. Again, she came across very rude and abrupt. I asked her if I could have two days side by side the following month and she told me that there were no more days available and that I HAD TO HAVE the two separate days that she originally told me. I told her that her company was not particularly 'flexible' and she replied... 'NO!’ I guess not. Anyway, after this I decided to ask for a full refund. I then decided to phone up the head quarters to complain about their lack of customer relations and to ask for a full refund. The Head of customer relations for Sliderobes said he was 'surprised' by the 'lack' of customer care I had received. He got in touch with the person who owns about 12 Sliderobes stores throughout the UK. He then phones up to find out why I have suddenly cancelled the order of which I give him the reason - outlining just how 'RUDE and ABRUPT' his staff member  was. He was surprised indicating that she had been an employee of his for around 8 years - makes me wonder how the company managed to stay afloat with employees as rude and as arrogant as that! Anyway, he then finally agrees to give me my deposit back and cancel the order. Two days later, having already found a much 'better' company and also less expensive to supply my wardrobes (a company based in the UK but I ordered online) I decided to have a quick look at the materials of the wardrobes in Sliderobes Cambridge again - just to have a look, nothing more than that. A day later I receive a threatening phone call from the man asking me if I had been inside the Cambridge store the day before. I had just gone in there to look at the wardrobe finishes i.e to see what the finishes looked like as a complete unit on the finished wardrobes. He told me that he was going to tell his staff that I am no longer welcome in his stores. Subsequently BANNING me from ALL Sliderobes stores - all because I had the audacity to go into the Cambridge store to have a look at the wardrobes in their entirety. He told me that he did not want to 'see me' or 'hear from me' ever again. I told him that I could not understand why he was taking this approach and he told me that this was an approach HE was going to take. Very similar attitude to the previous lady. I think he may not have liked the fact that I had been in discussions with Head of Customer Relations for the main parent company. The man came across threatening on the phone and all because I had the audacity of walking into the Cambridge store 'off the street' to look at the wardrobes in their entirety. Completely childish in my opinion and totally unnecessary. I resent being spoken to and threatened down the phone like that. I have now found myself two wardrobes which are currently being made up - the quality of which 'and service' are far better than received through 'Sliderobes'. He may have visions of me being a 'small fry' in a large world but I am certainly far from it - my family and friends are all high up (and I have certainly got a lot of contacts). I must say I was surprised to have received such a LOW LEVEL OF SERVICE and customer care from a company I thought were going to be the best. I was wrong and luckily I found a company elsewhere who were much better and also less expensive. The man actually saved me money in the end - something good actually came from this!!!! My business with Sliderobes is now over and I will certainly 'not' be recommending your brand to anybody in the future. To summarise.... DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT USING SLIDEROBES!!!!! THERE ARE FAR BETTER COMPANIES OUT THERE!!!!!! WITH FAR BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ALSO LESS EXPENSIVE - ALL FOR EXACTLY THE SAME PRODUCT!!!! AVOID SLIDEROBES AT ALL COSTS LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!!!

“Please Avoid and Look for Alternatives”

★☆☆☆☆

written by StuStringer on 29/04/2016

Please read this before committing! We have been looking to replace our wardrobes and after finding out there was a Sliderobes in Maidstone we decided to stay local. My wife and I got excited and went to the showroom and were greeted by a nice lady. An advisor had been assigned to come to the house for a quotation where after deciding on a design and colour the cost was £5700! We didnt argue on price as they talked a good game and the design was what we were after. After numerous calls for a visit to ask if I needed to pull down a door frame the owner came out in his new Jaguar and was one of the most condescending people I have met. No wonder he is not tasked with normal face to face business. He agreed the frame would need to come out 'but its ok, get the plasterer in afterwards'. Long story short, I got the wall sorted and Sliderobes came to fit on Monday. Disgusting! Uneven, marked, chrome tarnished, shelves not set back correctly, doors marked and DIRTY!!! £5700 and not even wiped down properly!! My wife spent the next hour cleaning them down. I spoke to the advisor who came out and asked us to make a list of 10-20 things we didn't like then after realising this was ridiculous agreed to replace all of the interior. Along with myself, Sliderobes are in the business of 'Luxury' goods. People don't NEED expensive wardrobes, we choose to have them. The team came back out to refit today. Not the whole interior, just a few parts. After the fitter had patronised my wife I have made the call today to request a call back. Quite simple, only my wife has been involved until now, but asked for a call before I get home at 5.30 or I would be dismantle the wardrobes and drop them back to the Aylesford branch. I received a call from the owner after my Facebook review who said they were not unreasonable people and they would come and collect the wardrobes and would save me a trip dropping them off. I got home and had a look last night and after deciding we were still not happy made an offer of an additional £2500 to take the total to £3500. Or I would still be happy to dismantle for a refund. I took a return call this morning who stated 'this is the best it is going to get' and if we chose to take it down they do not care as this is my decision. It turns out the 14 day cool off period with Barclays is worth nothing as they have already paid Sliderobes so an investigation has been opened. I have also contacted the Retail Ombudsman so a case could be raised against them also. Please look at alternatives rather than choosing this company. They are extremely nice until they have your money then wash their hands.

“overall very dissapointed”

★☆☆☆☆

written by BrendenGunn on 06/11/2015

ordered wardrobes took 8 weeks to arrive, when they did they were all wrong.. ordered again waited and waited and waited..every time we phoned we were told the people we wanted to speak to were unavailable , they already took large deposit.. after nearly 14 weeks we phoned yet again and still could not speak to anyone... In the end spoke to head office and got money back.. extremely poor way to treat people.. We went to another well known fitted wardrobes and from start to finish took just 25 days .. well impressed.. If any is thinking about sliderobes please think again..

“Worst customer service ever, can't even keep a promise!”

★☆☆☆☆

written by JJ_13 on 24/10/2015

They told us in September we would get our wardrobe installed by the end of October. They called 2 weeks ago to say "we'll call you next week with an installation date" Then no one called! I have since called them THREE times, on each occasion a member of staff promised to call me back & then DIDN'T CALL BACK! I've now had to call them FOUR TIMES & we still don't have a date! Really bad customer service when you can't even set my expectations or even call me back when you promise to do so (3 times you have broke your promise to return my call!!!) If I had known how bad your customer service was going to be I wouldn't have let you come & rip out my old wardrobe so quickly.

Hi,
You must be joking! I've already phoned you several times & no one brothers to ever return my call!!
It's now 10:45pm on a Wednesday night and your fitter is still here!!
He's now been here over 12 hours and I want to go to bed but I can't as he's still drilling, sawing & banging!!
This is totally unacceptable, plus he doesn't even have all the parts so can't even finish the wardrobe tonight!!
The whole thing is totally ridiculous and I'm completely fed up with it.
Please can you call me as I'm really really pee'd off if you hadn't already worked that out?
I also want to make a formal complaint but there are no compliant details on your website??
I look forward to hearing from you, but won't hold my breath.

“Just fabulous”

★★★★★

written by JackiesS on 14/10/2015

I should have written this review sooner as I had my slide robes fitted a few weeks ago, but have had visitors since! However I would just like to say that I cannot praise the Cheadle Sliderobes too highly. I was recommended to them by another firm on the Industrial Estate. They visited my property, assessed my requirements, designed for two bedrooms and (luckily for me someone couldn't have theirs fitted!) I had the fitting done within two weeks. The fitter was fantastic, he had a difficult space to work in but was very pleasant, clean, tidy and did a wonderful job. I really can't recommend this company highly enough if you want bespoke wardrobes/bedroom furniture then you should definitely invite them to your home.

“Fabulous service from start to finish ”

★★★★★

written by susiecate on 27/09/2015

I as delighted with the level of courteous and professional service i received from first contact with the office, to the design visit and the wonderful fitters who did an amazing job, fitting my wardrobes in just a few hours but to a great standard and leaving my bedroom clean and tidy. The design visit was also a joy and the designer (whose name i apparently can't mention based on site rules) was very helpful and patiently took time to work through all the options so i got the best use of save for me, not just a generic set up that might not have been the best configuration for how I use my wardrobes. My dealings with the office were also excellent and the lovely customer care lady (who again must remain anonymous due ti the review site guidelines) kept me fully advised on what to expect throughout the process. The finished result looks great and the quality is clear. Unlike so many jobs you have done on your property by 'expert' trades people, there are no glitches or snagging, jut high quality wardrobes that feel like they will last for years. The option of interest free credit is also a bonus, especially if you have recently moved (as i have) and have lots of significant outlay for major purchases. I couldn't recommend Sliderobes highly enough. Definite 5 stars.

“could do a lot better”

★★★☆☆

written by marisnr on 04/09/2015

first of all the product is very good ,the fitting service is excellent a fast service with no mess or fuss BUT the after care service leaves a lot to be desired with very poor communication between departments when problems arise after fitting .My wardrobes kept rolling back away from the end frames contacted the Lichfield showroom after leaving several answerphone messages they finally got back to me promising that the fitters would call to arrange a time to come and rectify my issues after waiting a week with no contact again I rang to leave a message on the answer machine in the end I e mailed the fitting surveyor who called me within five minutes and arranged for a fitter to call ,he came fixed the problem and thought all good until now cannot open one side of wardrobes and my wife cannot get to her clothes .again the fitters are supposed to ring me to arrange a time to call but still no communication very poor after care they seem to have got your money and are not bothered now

We had a self designed wardrobe fitted a couple of years ago. Nothing to fancy inside just a practical lay out. I was a little dubious after reading reviews that stated poor fitting but the guy who came alone was brilliant! His colleague who normally fitted with him was on a/l but this did not affect our fitters level of finish at all. He worked really hard and had it done within the day. The wardrobe is still looking as good as it did from day one :)

“Customer service post fitting”

★★★☆☆

written by campbs01 on 28/06/2015

Whilst I would recommend their wardrobes and fitting,their customer service afterwards is poor. Six weeks after initially phoning them, I am still waiting for someone to come and replace the dust strip which has come away from the door edge. The latest excuse is that they have moved their customer service to Glasgow. Incidentally, there is no separate number for customer service. It is the number you ring for arranging for a quote. I'm still waiting 4 days later for a return phone call.

“Very Poor Customer Service”

★☆☆☆☆

written by KeithGlasgow on 04/06/2015

I would like to say how good the wardrobes we ordered are but unfortunately after 6 weeks and despite paying a hefty deposit we have yet to see them installed. We have now been given a date of the 25th and 26th with no faith it will be done because we have been told only today that they cant get the veneer colour we want till then, something I would imagine they would or should have known 3 or 4 weeks ago. Head office don't really care, the salesman is trying to help but is just a messenger boy altogether an experience I would not recommend. We feel as though we are being held to ransom because they hold our deposit!

“Oriental White Glass & Mirror full wardrobe ”

★★★★☆

written by on 25/05/2015

We are really pleased with our Sliderobes full wardrobe. We have chosen the white glass & mirror oriental design, beautiful inside & out!! From design appointment to the fitting of the wardrobe, Sliderobes were very professional, keeping us updated with dates & appointment times & were punctual. Our fitters were on time & particular about keeping everything clean by covering furniture up in the room & hoovering the room once fitting was completed. Sliding doors run smoothly & the interior is exactly how we wanted it, storing everything in one place behind closed doors!!. The fitters even took away our old wardrobes that were broken down ready for the tip, which was an added bonus!! Worksmanship & product is true quality - you get what you pay for. Thank you!! The only issue we had was no breakdown of cost were provided for each individual item, this would have been useful rather than just a total amount spent!!

“Terrible Service”

★☆☆☆☆

written by scottbeccy on 22/05/2015

We have been trying to purchase a Sliderobes wardrobe for the best part of two months from the Glasgow store. It all started off so well, one of their designers came out to our property in Edinburgh. She was extremely knowledgable, helpful and had some great ideas and pulled together a design proposal for us. Then she appears to have left the business at which point our experience deteriorated rapidly. Calling ahead to check that a designer would be available, we travelled through to the showroom in Glasgow (there is no showroom in Edinburgh). We arrived to find the designer was not even scheduled to be at the showroom that day and the available staff had no access to our design. A further home visit was arranged with tehir General Manager where we agreed a price and requested that a comprehensive quote with the associated paperwork be sent to us. Three weeks later we are still waiting for the documents. Despite numerous phone calls and commitments that the General Manager would call us back, we have now given up. Sliderobes have wasted lots of our time and our renovations have now been delayed. We initially thought this was an excellent but expensive product, but given the service that we have received we would have no confidence progressing with an installation or the quality of their after sales.

Hi there. I am so sorry you have experienced this poor customer service from us - it's not how we do business at all, and it is something we take very seriously. I have alerted the Sales Director and the team in Glasgow and an investigation will now be implemented to find out what happened here and why we let you down so that we can learn from our mistakes. I am very sorry that you have lost confidence in us, but I hope that we can try and make up for it moving forward from today.

Do you have the 10 year guarantee? If so have you tried ringing them and asking them if they can mend them, they should have your measurments on file.
