I want to say thank you to Ruth Olbrych and Distinctive Chesterfield Company.

I want to say thank you to Ruth Olbrych and the Distinctive Chesterfields USA company for making my dream and wish come true. My new living room set (2 chairs and sofa) is perfect, I could not ask for better. I am 6 foot 2 and an amputee, the biggest challenge for me is getting out of furniture to an upright position, due to most if not all furniture is made for shorter people. Upon contacting Ruth Olbrych (representative of company) she put me at ease upon telling me they can make the furniture to fit my height. I was so relieved, so the finished design added 6 additional inches to the overall height of each piece. After a short period of time I was notified the pieces were ready to come to the states. They arrived, were delivered and installed by a great staff. Overall, the experience was so rewarding and comforting to finally have furniture to accommodate my height, I cannot thank you enough for what you did for me. Thank you,

Great customer service

Andrei was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We have a flat with difficult access and he gave us a lot of his time to find a solute. Great customer service.

Best all round service I have ever received

From the moment I contacted Distinctive Chesterfields and spoke to Olivia to the day we received the sofa I could not have been happier. The service and the product is excellent and our new sofa is such a lovely addition to our extension and everyone comments on it's look and how comfortable it is to sit on. I can't commend them enough. Thank you

These are the best quality chairs I have ever had! The process was super simple, from selecting the fabric to arranging shipping, shipment and also aftercare has all been amazing!
You can tell how well made the chairs are, they look stunning, they are super comfortable and really couldn’t fault them.
The courier used was also great, they brought the chairs into the room I wanted, unpacked the chairs and removed the packaging as well as adding the legs to the chairs which meant the whole process was super simple and I didn’t have to lift a finger.
We have had the chairs for over a month now and they are just so comfy, the cushions are also great as they don’t need re-plumping everytime you stand up.
I really cannot recommend any more! We have 2 of the Hatfield chairs.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Fantastic bespoke designs, quality & service.Olivia is extremely knowledgeable.

I knew exactly what I wanted; & where I would be getting it from, I invested well in two generously sized “Traditional Statement Leather Chesterfield Sofa’s”. They Ouse depth, quality & class.
I visited the showroom twice & was not disappointed either time. Olivia was / is extremely knowledgeable & friendly. A warm welcome was received each visit.
Distinctive Chesterfields gave me a bespoke service & I could not be anymore happier with the result.
The communication, service & attention to detail were outstanding, second to none.
These sofa’s are a real show stopper - a real “Statement Piece of furniture”.
I’m proud to have bought locally & had them delivered to my new home Cleethorpes. Friend’s & family have been extremely complimentary of my timeless investment.
I cannot help but fall in love with the look, the feel & the smell of the quality; of My Distinctive Chesterfield’s 🤎🤎

No regrets

Amazing. I had to make a return and there were no issues. I got replacements in the color I wanted. Quality is the best I've seen. Will be buying more in the future.

Professional staff. Excellent quality product

Olivia was extremely helpful. Gave us the information we needed to help us make a decision. Visited the showroom twice before making a decision. We had visited other showrooms but at distinctive chesterfield we felt confident they would deliver AND the furniture is made locally. Not a long wait from ordering to delivery All went smoothly and we really like our chesterfield. Definitely recommend. Bought early 2024. Apologies for delay in reviewing.

Poor quality and service

Late delivery. Two pieces of the corner sofa didn't fit properly together. Cushions were misshaped and discoloured.
Attempts made to fix the existing sofa then taken away for a full rebuild. Really bad Comms from the sales staff and had to escalate to the owner.
A shame as it's a local company but I couldn't use them again.
Just received an email to comment today on my experience so it's a little out dated. Maybe they're awesome now 😁

Best in the business

Really helpful customer service. So many samples to choose from, the build is amazing. The fabric is soft the only issue was there was so much choice. I am now considering which room to decorate next to get myself a chaise long so I have an excuse to purchase again

Great softa

I ordered a chesterfield from distinctive chesterfield, a 3 seater Kensington sofa.
The craftsmanship is impeccable with a good solid build and built for comfort.
They even carried it up to my apartment at the cost of a brew and biscuits.
