About HSL Chairs - Ipswich

Written by the company

HSL is an award-winning family furniture business with stores nationwide. We’ve been handcrafting and delivering beautiful furniture to provide true comfort for over 50 years. Making people comfortable is part of our DNA and that is why we do it.


We have spent over half a century making it our mission to understand the different sizes, shapes and needs of our customers. We have learnt how people sit, rest and sleep; how their bodies bend and move; and where and why they ache. We call this knowledge CleverComfort™, and it goes into the design and manufacture of every chair, sofa and bed we make – ensuring that our furniture fits the bodies of our customers perfectly.


Award Winning

HSL has also been recognised by The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise for one of our innovative designs, our wooden knuckle. The Queen’s Award for Enterprise is a prestigious award for recognising British businesses and other organisations who excel at promoting opportunity, sustainable development, international trade or innovation.


Made in Yorkshire

Whilst our roots still remain in Yorkshire, we have welcoming showrooms nationwide spanning the entire country and a national network of Home Visit Comfort Specialists performing consultations in our customers’ own homes.


Family Business

As we’ve grown, one thing that has never changed is the passion for comfort and furniture being at the heart of our business. We’re still family-run, we continue to hold traditional values in our hearts, and we have always been dedicated to providing a caring service and excellent value for money for all of our customers.

Ipswich showroom

We were very impressed by the friendly reception by Marie and Emma of the sales team at the Ipswich showroom. We were given time to make our choice and decision without being hassled. When we asked for information we were dealt with in a most friendly and informative manner and our questions were answered in detail. We were even given tea and biscuits !

Exceptional customer service

I recently visited the Ipswich store with my 80 year old Mum who needed a riser recliner. The three staff available were incredible. They asked meaningful questions to assess mum's requirements. They were exceptionally well trained and used expert knowledge to advise her. They work closely with an occupational health specialist which gives them valuable insight. They were patient and took a genuine interest in her. They all had excellent interpersonal skills.

I spent 3 hours choosing my recliner. The company kept me up to date with my purchase. They phoned me a few days before delivery to arrange a date of delivery. I was phoned 15 minutes before the delivery to let me know they were almost here. Jack & Martin a big thank you for your kindness.you are both amazing people.

Our visit to Ipswich

I visited the Ipswich store with my wife and daughter at the beginning of July to look at some new chairs. My wife has dementia so shopping of any kind can be a stressful experience . We were attended to by two lovely ladies, Emma and Lucy who couldn’t have been more kind , helpful and understanding. We spent nearly two hours in the store and had tea and biscuits. What could have been a stressful experience turned out to be a very enjoyable one and we look forward to our new furniture arriving,
Thank you to Emma and Lucy and the gentleman who also saw us from time to time - I think Shef was his name. I apologise if not.

Great service

Jason and Ashley delivered our chairs a couple of hours ago, they were polite and friendly and told us about the emergency batteries in the event of a power cut (so we wouldn’t get stuck in our chairs unable to get out)! Great service, thank you.

Lucy

Lucy, our comfort specialist , was so knowledgable and explained in detail the working of each chair even down to showing how to change the battery at least every year. We were astounded by how much information she had stored in her head!!06

Called on a whim and saw the Strawberry…

Called on a whim and saw the Strawberry Thief fabric on a Buckingham chair and loved it so much we ordered a chair and a 2 seater sofa, the staff were very welcoming, friendly and informative and very helpful with our order, along with a cool drink on a very hot day.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend HSL to friends and family.

Caring, supportive, knowledgeable and gentle assistance

We were given a warm welcome by Marie at the Ipswich branch.
She was kind, gentle and supportive in helping my elderly Mum choose a chair that was right for her.
She recognised the difficulties my Mum had and worked tirelessly and successfully to provide a solution that worked.
Mum went in feeling down and came out with a big smile on her face.
Thank you Marie

5 star service. Very professional

Wayne and Andy delivered my chair that I had ordered from the Ipswich showroom. They phoned as promised 30 minutes before arrival so I was ready. Both were very friendly and courteous. They were very professional and careful as they brought the chair in.
Andy explained how the chair was operated and gave me a demonstration. He then placed it exactly where I wanted it.
