Looking for new sofas

After visiting Metrocentre Store and having a problem with the store getting an email to me I nearly gave up but remembered there was a Poltonesofa store on Durham.
I have visited on 3 occasions to make sure I was happy with the sofa I purchased. I spoke with Terry Jen and Samantha and I have to say they were all extremely professional nothing was a problem, I wasn't harassed in any way and felt comfortable throughout the whole experience.
I have ordered my sofa now excited waiting for its arrival

A lovely store which is well laid out.

A lovely store which is well laid out.
Sadly not a great deal of assistance or product knowledge from the staff member.
Despite that I did make a purchase based on the information formation gained on the website before my visit.

Buy at your own risk!

They ordered the wrong configuration of my couch and then blamed me saying that it was my fault because I asked for/didnt review my order properly. Not interested in resolution just making up excuses to avoid resolve. If i were you I would pay that bit extra and deal with a proper company like DFS or Sofology.

Ciao Kyall,

I hope you are well and thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re unhappy with your experience.

When an order is placed, all customers receive an order confirmation and are given 48 hours to review and amend any details, including the sofa configuration, before the order is processed with the manufacturer.

We do appreciate that mistakes can happen, however we do also rely on customers checking the order confirmation carefully to ensure all details are correct.

We apologise if you feel dissatisfied with the outcome.

As there are no order details provided within your review I am unable to look into your account further.

If you do require further assistance please send an email to socialmedia@poltronesofa.co.uk along with a screenshot of your review and order number in order for this to be looked at.

Many Thanks

Good experience

The guys who brought our furniture were lovely, really careful carrying it in and placing it in the house and really friendly and chatty.
The only issue is I did not get my leather cleaning kit??

Disappointed in the poor after sales / customer services support

I ordered my three seater double recliner in January and it has been delivered today in May. The pleasant experience of ordering and delivering has now been overshadowed by the fact that one of the recliners is defective in that the neck and lumbar buttons aren’t working. It’s disappointing that you are unable to speak directly to customer services and have to submit an email and wait! Hardly makes you feel valued and supported. Very disappointed with the quality of the product and the after sales service.
Following on from this I have received an email from the parts department to confirm that they have accepted I have a case and have ordered the replacement part with an expected delivery date of 12 weeks and then will have to arrange a technician to attend thereafter. I loved the sofa in the showroom but am not loving the sub standard sofa currently doing half a job in my living room.
