Reliable service
I've used Woods on line a few times and never been disappointed with the delivery service or products

Hi Amanda,
Thank you for your continued support and for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review.
We're delighted to hear that you've used Woods several times and have consistently been happy with both our products and delivery service. Providing quality furniture and a smooth customer experience is something we take great pride in, so it's fantastic to know we've met your expectations on each occasion.
We truly appreciate your loyalty and look forward to serving you again in the future.
Thank you,
Emma-Louis, The Woods Team
Beautiful table
The table we ordered is absolutely beautiful, even better than we were expecting. Great quality and looks fantastic. They were very quick to dispatch the table, the only reason for 4 out of 5 instead of 5 is because the delivery company weren't great. I can't fault the customer service of Woods though but potentially would be worth using a more reliable delivery company

Hi Sarah,
Thank you for your review and for your kind comments about the table. We're delighted to hear that you're pleased with your order.
We're also glad that you were happy with our customer service and the speed of dispatch. We appreciate your feedback regarding the delivery experience. While we work hard to ensure orders are dispatched promptly, we understand how important a reliable delivery service is and we're sorry that this part of the experience did not meet the same standard.
Your comments have been noted and will be shared with our team as we continually review our delivery partners and processes. Thank you again for your feedback and for choosing Woods. We hope you enjoy your new table for many years to come.
Thank you.

Disappointing Quality & Customer Service
I recently ordered 8 dining chairs from Woods Furniture.
However, on delivery the chairs looked substantially different to the website image and the quality was not to the standard I expected.
I was therefore forced to return the goods in order to receive a refund. The return was at my own expense and cost in excess of £100 on top of the original delivery costs incurred.
It then took the company more than 15 days after receipt of the returned items to issue my refund. And this was only after 2 chaser phone calls ( the first of which assured me that the refund had already been processed, which was clearly not the case).
The refund was a substantial amount of money and I would still be waiting for it had I not spent time chasing the company.
Not the standard of customer service one would expect from a reputable company and a disappointing standard of product too.
So, at £200 out of pocket I won’t be shopping with them again.

Hi Mrs Foley
Thank you for your review.
We're sorry to see that you did not like the chairs you purchased through our website. We do try to ensure that our website photos are truly representative of the appearance of the products we advertise. As mentioned on the website the colours can appear a little different in your home due to the difference in lighting between your home and our studio.
In any instance where a customer decides that they do not like a purchased item once they see it in their home, we strive to make their choice to return them as easy and transparent as possible as laid out in the support section of our website.
Your refund was processed in line with our advertised timescales, unfortunately in this instance there was a system error which resulted in a slight delay between us issuing the refund and your bank accepting the payment. We are truly sorry that this occurred. As soon as this was notified to us, we resolved the issue the same day to ensure your money was with you as quickly as possible.
Kind regards
Paul

Outstanding product and service…
It is little wonder that Woods has been trading successfully for 151 years. Karen in the Bournemouth shop was incredibly helpful whilst choosing our table. Office phoned a week before to check our availability. Mark phoned 10 minutes before arrival to alert us to the imminent delivery. Both he and Dylan assembled the table quickly and efficiently and could not have been more helpful. What is more, the handsome table represents exceptional value. Here’s to the next 151 years !

We visited the Dorchester Shop
We visited the Dorchester Shop, its a beautiful furniture shop so well laid out and there was so much choice! The assistant was so patient and helpful.
Delivery arranged, got a phone call from the warehouse to confirm delivery date. A further phone call 2 days before with a time slot and then another delivery 30 minutes before arrival.
Mark and Dylan were the most helpful men!
Would definitely recommend

Damaged Goods, Poor Delivery.
After ordering my desk, I received multiple messages and emails informing me their drivers would call an hour in advance which they failed to do. The box was badly damaged, the driver said he would make a note of this but the delivery ticket says "box damaged" it says NO. Best to avoid this company.
Update
Sent Woods the damage photos and delivery confirmation, they said they would call me back, still waiting.
Totally unacceptable.

Fabulous service from all staff at Woods but especially Eliza. She helped us decide on our sofa, not an easy task with all the choices. Very patient with us and explained every detail about the process and extra protection, stainguard, if required. Eliza kept us up to date with delivery times. We loved it so much we went back and ordered two accent chairs with Eliza. Super helpful and friendly staff. Excellent quality furniture with great care taken when delivered and put together by the team. Highly recommend. Bonus it was all in the sale.

Great service from the team at Woods Furniture
Massive thank you to Woods for the service we had with our sofa delivery. Andy and Mark were the delivery guys who brought the sofa up 2 flights of stairs on an extremely hot day. Also a big shout out to Sennen in the Dorchester shop who was very knowledgeable and professional. Certainly a five star review for these guys.

READ SMALL PRINT BEFORE PURCHASING
I purchased a large piece of furniture which doesn't look great in the room. I want to return it but have been told that it's not possible as it's been assembled. This goes against Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. Very sneaky and illegal of them.
Read the small print before purchasing anything from this company.
