Top notch quality materials. Simply the best desk I have. Years later still holding up perfectly and the large size makes it very practical.

Good communication, great delivery, definitely choose the build service such good value

We bought a high bed with futon and desk underneath. We waited less than 3 weeks for delivery and chose the build service. Joe from furniture first delivered the bed and built it, very polite and professional. I am fussy and he did a great job, well worth the money. My daughter watched it being built and loves it. Its more of a gloss white wash finish but good quality and looks like it will last.

We have recently bought a couple of items. The team that installed the bunk bed didn’t put it together properly so the drawers under the bed don’t fit and the front fell off after a day. I have contacted FW who asked the manufacturer to call me who did in a timely matter but 2 days later I haven’t heard from FW even though I put a call in today. Also the chest of drawers we bought are faulty as the drawer handle holes are in the wrong place. A replacement is meant to be being sent. The lack of communication from customer services is a big issue currently. A call back and some care would be appreciated.

We're sorry there was an issue with this assembly. The manufacturer performs hundreds of assemblies every month for us and it's extremely rare for anything to go wrong (maybe once in a few months). We are sorry this happened to you and assure you that we and the manufacturer always take any customer issues seriously. We note you reporting the problem to us over the weekend, we responded on the Monday morning and you received a call from the manufacturer later the same day. We understood they explained that the parts needed will have to be sent down to the assembly team, who will then contact you to arrange a service call. This takes time to organize and I'm sorry if this was not made clear. When you contacted us two days later and again the following day we responded with an update at the end of each day, so I'm sorry if you felt there was a lack of communication but we certainly would not fail to update customers on an issue like this. We see you are due another update on Monday and will get back to you then. Apologies once again and thank you for your order.

parisot bunk bed

had been looking at bunk beds with storage everywhere for my girls and was having no luck finding the right one and in stock. originally i found the Parisot Stim Grey & Oak Bunk Bed with Wardrobe on argos website but was out of stock. i then proceeded to find the same one at family window. it was a little more expensive but i emailed the company and asked if they would price match. i got a reply off Jason who said they couldn't price match but could give me a discount. i put the order through and was given a refund of the discount straight away and then informed of delivery which was a few days later. great customer service from start to finish as well as the delivery drivers who were very courteous and let me know which box to open last. fairly easy to build by myself and good quality parts and fixings. my girls love their new bed and the little extras like hanging rail and cupboard space. thank you family window and will definitely come back if need any beds in the future

Thank you for going to the trouble to write a positive review. We do manage to deliver many orders quicker than the delivery time quoted, but always feel we should quote the worst-case delivery times to avoid disappointment. We're pleased your daughters love their new bunk bed and hope they get many years enjoyment from it. Many thanks again.

Excellent Service and Quality products

It's rare that we write reviews, but on this occasion i think it's more than justified, what excellent service from ordering to delivery in just 10 days, very impressive given the current climate, my daughter absolutely loves the bed and mattress we purchased, look forward to buying from this website in the future.

8 weeks later, no delivery

We ordered the Trasman Bunk Bed on 31 January and the website advised 3-4 weeks for delivery. We got a call from Family Window at the end of February advising that their were delays due to Brexit, and that the bed would most likely be delivered closer to the end of March but that the manufacturer would be in touch. This was very disappointing as it meant we had to move to our new house with no bed for our little girl. We are now at the end of March and no word from the manufacturer. Family Window call centre are polite but not helpful, and we still have no idea when the bed will be delivered despite waiting almost 8 weeks. Customer service have emailed to say that ‘they understand’ the manufacturer have already called us (they haven’t) and told us last week that they would call us today (they didn’t). Their website is still selling the same bed and now advertises that delivery will be made in 3 weeks, which is unbelievable given how long we’ve been waiting. Overall just really disappointed that we didn’t pick one of the many other websites selling this bed, as our little girl would have had her bed by now.

We are very sorry that this bunk bed ran late. It was in fact the manufacturer that spoke to you (and all of our other customers) initially to advise that the bed was running late, and that it was likely to be delayed until the end of March. We did ask them to call you again on the Monday when you asked for another call and am sorry that it was the next day (we believe they apologised and explained they were awaiting an update on your delivery), and we know they have spoken to you since too. This new bunk bed became hugely popular and the factory needed time to catch-up on demand I'm afraid but is now back to the the original delivery time. As an Authorised Dealer, no other source can delivery their beds quicker than us but we absolutely understand that you wished to cancel and refunded you in full the same day. We apologise again for this running late and hope this does not deter you from looking at the Trasman range in the future, as they are typically one of our most reliable suppliers.

Great service!

I have to say this shop has great service.
I ordered a "Parisot Office Pedestal Desk Workstation". It came within two weeks. It's pretty decent quality. I did have few parts missing for a drawer, however, the service desk is excellent and they responded straight away and sent it to me the same day. Arrived just a few days later. I am very happy with both the service and the desk I bought.
I definitely recommend this shop and the desk I purchased.

Excellent customer service and quality product

Excellent customer service and communication. We requested more information about the product and the customer service team got the information from the manufacturer for us. We ordered a Flexa bed which is excellent quality and we are very pleased with it. The only small negative is that it was quite complicated and time consuming to assemble, but it was worth it for such a good quality item.

Thank you very much for going to the effort of writing a positive review - we're very grateful when customers take the time to do so. We try to give as much product information as possible on the web site but are always very happy to provide more details whenever customers have any specific requirements or questions. We talk to the various manufacturers every day and it wasn't a problem to discuss your questions with Flexa. We're pleased that you are happy with the bed and hope you have many years of use from it. Thank you again for your custom.

Bought a bed for my son weeks of delays which I understand as a result of COVID. However, then as it’s the manufacturer that delivers they are completely unhelpful and refused to even phone the manufacturer when the item failed to turn up on time the day if delivery..

I’m sorry that the telephone team said they could not call the manufacturer's delivery team for an update. Sometimes drivers can be delayed but it’s rare and they would normally just let the customer know if they are going to be very late. I can see a colleague did actually call the delivery team and then call you back within 10 minutes of receiving your message, and report that on this occasion the driver was running 20 minutes or so late. I apologise that you were told otherwise. There was a temporary delay on that particular bed, but it’s all back to normal now and in stock. Thank you again for your understanding and patience, and we hope you enjoy your new high bed.

Not terrible, but not recommended

Overall, not recommended. We bought two flexa Nordic highsleeper beds with the desks underneath. They feel extremely flimsy and they move a lot if an adult climbs up onto them, for example to change a sheet. One of them has a ladder which seems to be a bit wonky and when we climb on it the whole bed seems to tip a little bit. The beds creak a lot and make a lot of noise, despite checking that the screws and bolts are all done up properly.

We bought these during August when there was apparently a sale on. When we emailed family window we were told the sale was on until the end of August. Exactly the same sale appears to still be on in September. It would be interesting to check back in October or later to see if there is still such a sale.

I'm sorry, we can not identify you or your order from the user name but do not want to leave this as it is as Flexa are a premium brand and will want to come back to you. Can you please contact our customer service with your order number, delivery postcode or buyer name and we'll follow up with Flexa. Any issues with stability or creaking are extremely rare and usually resolved by talking to one of their assembly team, which we can arrange. On the issue of the sale, our "Summer Sale" was extended on some lines into the beginning of September but that has long since ended and the prices will have changed some weeks ago.

Excellent service & product

We bought a Parisot setup desk for our Son and we have not seen him since! delivered safely within 3 weeks and the product really is outstanding he absolutely loves it, easy to assemble and the LED lights really set it off, this would also be a great option for people working from home.

Ignore the Negative Reviews

Ignore the Negative Reviews - I ordered my desk sometime near the middle of June, and quoted around 4 to 6 weeks delivery - it took a month in the end but response from Family Window was quick. Upon arrival, the desk appeared in excellent condition, no damages etc.

The only thing I would say, the instructions show each part is numbered, however the parts itself doesnt have the numbers on them, so had to try and work out which was which. Other than this, excellent service and product.

Ordered the parisot corner gaming desk for my son. Was told around a 6 week wait time but arrived in 4. Quality is excellent and its really sturdy. It can be set up with shelves on either side of the desk so 2 sets of instructions were provided which I thought was great! Usually flat pack furniture is rife for having the wrong instructions where you basically have to figure it out yourself. Only took just under two hours to build and my son is ecstatic with it! Would definitely recommend!

Sorry, we can not find any order under your name as either a buyer or delivery contact so can not identify you to resolve this directly. Please contact our customer services by email or on 0333 577 99 60 (8am-8pm) if you are unhappy with any part of the product and we'll arrange for a replacement. These are hugely popular desks and we sell many hundreds every month, but if any arrive with issues we will resolve them.

Parisot Office Pedestal Desk Workstation

My experience with this order has been a long but good one. So after looking to find a new desk now that I was working from home, I was really starting to run out of space on my old one. So instead of going to my normal websites I managed to find this one. Delivery time said 3-4 weeks which was fine, then got an update to say might be another 1-2 weeks due to the covid situation. So in the end it took about 7 weeks to arrive. Was given a delivery window of 11am - 1pm and arrived just after 11.30 which was great. As for the assembly, it took me a few hours putting all the screws in and ended up having to have my flatmate help me to put together all the pieces, so I would say it's definitely a 2 person job if you want to get it up sooner. Any times I had to contact for support everyone was very helpful. It's going to take a while to get used to the extra space but it's going to be worth it! :) After reading other reviews, I would recommend to others but try and plan your order for delivery and for any extra delays that might happen. I Would buy from again if I had more space.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write a positive review, we really appreciate it. We have now managed to catch-up on the high demand for this particular desk and are back to normal delivery times, and thank you for your patience whilst we did so. You are right in saying it's a 2-person job to assemble the desk, due to it's size, and are pleased you're happy with the result. Thank you again.

Fabulous customer service and high sleeper bed

I bought a Noah 4 high sleeper stompa bed from Family Window, which was for a much better price than many of the other websites (I checked loads). The product was absolutely brilliant, and my two sons absolutely adore the bed. I was very impressed with their customer service. I had some delivery queries that they responded to really helpfully and quickly via email. And when there was a very small thing that wasn't delivered, they very quickly arranged for it's delivery next day, as well as offered a complementary gift. Have no fears from ordering from here. They're really great with fantastic service which is so rare these days. Highly recommended.

Sorry, just seen this. We understand you are disappointed we could not offer assembly, but these dates are not correct. You ordered the desk on 16th MARCH with assembly, the UK went into lockdown a week later and we contacted you on 27th March to ask if you wanted to have delivery only. At that time you asked us to delay the order until restrictions were lifted. We contacted you again on 3RD JUNE asking if you still want to wait or to have delivery only, and you asked us to deliver. You were offered a delivery 2 weeks later but we were asked to delay that until 22nd June. You later reported that there were some fixings missing and these went on an overnight carrier, with our apologies. We are sorry we had to suspend our assembly service, and as it is a national service and would require people to work in different people's homes all over the country, we are just not able to resume that service yet I'm afraid. We hope your grandson enjoys his new desk and thank you again for your order.

Same excellent service as before

A big thank you to the team at Family Window for your excellent customer service again. Found you very responsive. We were worried after reading some reviews but reassured are not representative and we did indeed get our order exactly when you said we would, just like our first order with you. Sorry for fretting!!! P.S. great product and easy instructions so not a problem your assembly service isn’t back yet.
