About HSL Chairs - York
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.

Disappointing
For the high price paid I was disappointed that the backup batteries must be replaced after each use - I would have expected rechargeable ones - and there was no provision to tidy the excess cable lengths - simple cable tie would suffice - and the transformer /battery box should attach to the back of the chair and not be left loose on the floor.
No, I suspect there are higher quality armchair suppliers and at more reasonable prices.

2 wonderful people brought the chair, very informative, friendly and I bought the chair.I was told it might be 6-8 weeks until ready. Actually it was just short of 6 weeks.
Delivery was amazing. A 2 hour window for delivery, a phone call at 20 minutes away 18 minutes later arrived.Brilliant all the way. And I love my posture chair!

Lee and Carl delivered our new Sofa and chairs with superb professionalism today
Very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere
Very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Lainey listened to my requirements and helped me try out several chairs and sizes, discussing the different features. So happy with her recommendation, which seems to be the perfect chair for me, rather than the one I'd thought looked best on the website.
First class experience from start to finish
A huge thank you to Carl p and Damion who delivered and put together our corner unit sofa today, after struggling to attached all nuts and bolts to join the corners to each side which wasn't easy to do as it wasn't a recliner, they did an amazing job, lovely pleasant lads
Very informative and helpful
Very informative and helpful, friendly purchase experience, delivery well ahead of what was expected. Actual delivery by Carl P and Damion was excellent, nothing was a problem, placement and information was A++, helpful, friendly and professional, just what you should expect of Yorkshire folk 👍

Delivery team rang with an estimated time of delivery. Damion and Carl P arrived dead on time with our new Stressless chair, which they carried round to the back of our house to place in the conservatory. They were friendly, courteous and efficient.

Staff at HSL York were very helpful when purchasing the chair and the delivery was on time and delivered by 2 pleasant and helpful gentlemen
Overall great experience though had to…
Overall great experience though had to wait 14 weeks (advised it would be 6-8 weeks) for delivery due to a mix up at HSL. Made enquiries after waiting 8 weeks and took another 7 weeks to arrive as the item is bespoke. HSL(Simon) was very polite however, knocked money off as compensation and the quality of the product is excellent.
Visited HSL York - Outstanding Service
Visited HSL with my parents to help them order new chairs. We were assisted by Diana at the York store who was extremely helpful and considerate and caring to our needs as my dad has dementia. The process from end to end to order 2 new chairs was seamless and I would highly recommend HSL and particularly the York store. This is our 2nd visit to this store and both times it has resulted in successful purchases. Thank you for you outstanding customer service and understanding. Diana was very understanding, knowledgeable and easy to get along with.
Great service 👏 Highly recommend.
Earlier this year, I took my mum to HSL at York to purchase a new riser recliner chair. We were looked after very well by Diana and my mum is thrilled with her new chair. Very good customer service and high quality furniture.
