Excellent service
Excellent service, with staff knowledge on hand. I didn't feel pushed to make a purchase and was left on my own free will to ask for advice. Very friendly staff and the sales lady Kerry was very helpful and talked me through each step A+

Jamie at the Barnstaple store was very helpful when ordering my new corner sofa. Couldn't fault his customer service.
I only gave DFS a four star because i don't believe that charging over £100 for delivery is good considering how much i have spent.

We ordered the sofa online as we visited the Barnstaple store yesterday for the second time at 12.35, the store was empty no other customers apart from us. There were two sales assistants one sat on a sofa at the back and the other leaning against the wall. Neither of them asked if they could help they just ignored us. We had gone in with every intention of placing an order but due to the complete lack of Customer interaction and service we left, deciding to order online very disappointing.

Good afternoon Paul,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review. We do appreciate any feedback and for bringing this issue to our attention.
We are very sorry for the experience you have received with DFS and we will look into feeding this back to the relevant store to avoid this happening again. I can assure you it's not how we like to treat our customers.
We are happy to hear you were able to order and apologies again for the inconvenience this may have caused, we look forward to delivering your lovely new furniture!
Kind regards,

A friendly welcome as we entered the store. She left us to look round, but said if we needed any help to come to find her. I did find two I liked so she came over. I chose one of them and she got the paperwork ready. I apologised, but I changed my mind and went for the other one. She said that's no problem, you need to choose one that you are completely satisfied with. Whilst doing the paperwork she went through everything I should know. Very informative. After completion she talked to us about her liking for Harry Potter which my son and Daughter-in-law were into too. She was happy to talk about it and didn't rush us to leave. We wished her well as she was due to have her baby soon. A very lovely lady.
I would certainly recommend this store.
