Ordered a bookcase, didnt even receive a phone call or email from then confirming the order. Then had to wait for over 4 weeks to get a delivery date- each time I had to chase them for it- only to get told less than 24 hours before that it had been damaged and they cannot guarantee I would receive another within the week. Had them cancel the order and refund by card which I was told would take a week.

Top customer service from the boys at Furniture Shop Uk, I had 2 issues with my order and contacted them on the sales team, I received a very quick reply and the issues were sorted in less than 24hrs, this was absolutely superb from a customer perspective and I will be shopping with them again. Thank you Furniture Shop Uk Team.

EXCELLANT EXPERIENCE. RIGHT FROM THE FIRST CALL HAD FRIENDLY AND KNOWLEDGEABLE HELP. PRICES WERE GREAT AS WE BOUGHT THE DEVON OAK LIVING ROOM RANGE. THEY COMPETED WITH OTHER RETAILERS. BEST OF ALL THE COMMUNICATION WAS IMPRESSIVE AS I WANTED THE DELIVERY JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS AND THEY KEPT ME INFORMED OF THE DELIVERY TIMES AND ENSURED THAT IT WAS STILL CONVENIENT. THE DELIVERY ARRIVED ON TIME AND THE STAFF TOOK GREAT CARE HANDLING THE FURNITURE. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THE FURNITURE SHOP UK ENOUGH FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE, PRICES AND VALUE FOR MONEY, QUALITY OF FURNITURE AND DELIVERY. AN EXAMPLE TO ALL RETAILERS.

Osaka faux leather sofa. After searching online and checking other review sites, I was warned off by some of the horror stories I read about OTHER furniture E-tailers, These guys offered the cheapest price, which then rang alarm bells about whether the service would be ok, (you usually get what you pay for) HOWEVER! The sofa I bought arrived within the 3 days as claimed on their website. I was allowed to sign for the item unchecked, incase signing for as checked means I write away my rights to return, without incurring a restocking fee. Today I have put the sofa together in my flat and I am very happy. So glad I cancelled my previous order through a highstreet sofa shop, for nearly 2 grand and bought the one I did for £350. Also I was updated throughout the day about the delivery slot, Its rare to find decent service these days. And this shop gave me that. a no nonsense decent service. The online chat was also very helpful, I've had worst experience with other shops where I could tell the person on the other end was not fit for a Customer service job. But not here. Do not be put off by the quality of their website. It does look a bit dated, but thats another topic. Im not here to review how pretty a website looks.

Very happy with our Eames replica chair for our daughters bedroom. She loves the bright pink colour. We were very impressed by the quick delivery. Thank Furniture Shop UK. I wouldn't hesitated to recommend this company of friends and family for sure.

Hello I just wanted to say how pleased I am with my sofa, and the delivery which was exactly when they said it would be. Although I paid the extra £10 for a two man team only one man turned up, through no fault of his own, but he coped admirably. I would certainly recommend The Furniture Shop Uk to my friends.

Purchased a lovely looking oak tv cabinet on their EBay store and paid for it immediately on 14th October. Cannot review the quality of the actual item as I still haven't received it on 3rd November. At no time has the company contacted me to explain the delay or speak to me. I have had to phone them to ask where my cabinet is. Every time I ring I get a different story and a different new date for alleged delivery. The gentlemen who answer the phone are rude and completely unapologetic. The latest one actually asked what would I like him to do in a sarcastic manner - answer, deliver the item I paid for 3wks ago

You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.
Unfortunately this customers TV cabinet has found to be damaged when it arrived in our warehouse the night before it was due for delivery. As we check the furniture before we deliver it, this item could not be sent. We phoned the customers phone number but she had only given us her works number. When she was told that she wasn't getting her delivery she wasn't happy. I would think she would have been even unhappier if we had of sent her a damaged TV unit. We explained we needed to get a new one from the suppliers, this took longer than usual but we did get it. The customer had phoned in between us getting it to find out when it would be delivered. On the Friday we had said it should be the following Tuesday but due to delivery issues we had to change it to a Thursday. After hearing this the customer then decided to go and vent her anger by writing poor reviews anywhere she could about our company. As she had done this before we delivered her TV unit we took the decision to cancel her order and refund her money. Upon further investigation we could see that this customer has left poor reviews for lots of other businesses. For anybody reading this you will see that this one customers review is out of character with all of our others.

I have recently purchased a dining table after a great deal of searching. This company had the table I wanted at a substantially lower price than any other site and free delivery to boot. I was admittedly a tad worried about the quality of the product because of the low price. I cannot emphasize enough how beautiful this table is in person. I cannot wait to entertain and show it off. Both the product and the service are outstanding. Do not hesitate to purchase from this company. I should also mention that I am actually in the furniture business myself. I sell hardwood furniture for one of the UK's largest retailers. I could not purchase a table this unique or at this price with my own company. Many thanks for my new table. I will be purchasing from you in the future.

I've bought many items of furniture from the Vancouver Oak range at The Furntiure Shop UK over the last few years and cannot fault my "customer experience". I keep coming back because their prices are genuinely the loweest I can find on the internet. I receive prompt confirmation of my order and delivery is quick, even though I live far away. Delivery of large furniture items can sometimes be quite frustating. Delivery man not caring about how they get the item into someone's house, push a peice of paper under your nose to sign for it and hotfoot away. This is not the case with the delivery staff here. When the give an approximate delivery time it is accurate - I have never waited long for them to arrive. They respect my home, firstly by carefully driving onto my drive, not acting like James hunt kicking up all my stones. They are courteous and friendly. Although the same delviery people come they don't mind being reminded to step over the threshold and not on it (one great oaf did from Ocado did and broke it - I had to have it replaced). The item arrives in good packaging and with the exception of one item all have arived perfect (the one item that was damaged was the fault of the manufacturer leaving a removable shelf inside loose!). Even reaplacing that item was a breeze. A quick phone call and they provided an entirely new item. Items I have bought from The Furniture Shop UK include a sideboard, two glazed cabinets, a tall boy and a hall table - I love every item.

Recently purchased a reclaimed elm dining table from Furniture Shop UK and couldn't be happier. Delivery was brilliant - delivered within the hour time slot they gave me. My table was checked on delivery and I'm totally delighted with it. Great price, great purchase. Many thanks

I was very impressed with the customer service that I received throughout the ordering process . I was called very quickly to be told that my item would take a few weeks, so my expectations were managed well. To their credit I was called again a few weeks later to let me know that my cabinet had arrived and we arranged a convenient time to deliver. The Filling cabinet arrived yesterday at the exact time I was told - I was thrilled and had the rest of the afternoon to myself! The cabinet looks great by the way !

I was a little bit hesitant about ordering a large item of furniture 'online' but after having made contact with the company before placing an order I decided to go ahead. I was not dissapointed - this company went out of their way to ensure I achieved the best possible price for an item which was subject to a price increase and made several telephone calls to enable me to achieve this. The item (Etienne Sideboard) arrived yesterday - excellent quality, good solid mahogany - it is everything I wanted and more, fabulous. Would not hestitate to purchase again from this company or recommend to a friend. Thank you

Sadly very true.
Terrible customer service, they'll take your money and run
