Good Afternoon Arron,

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

I am pleased to see that you found the ease of the order outstanding and that the customer service you received was a positive one.

I am sorry that we did not achieve the 5-star service we aim to provide to our customers on this occasion and that this is due to the differing costs on materials available to order on your sofa.

The different costs should have been explained at point of sale as different grades of fabrics, colours and whether the material is fabric or leather does have affect on the price of the material chosen and ultimately the overall cost of your order.

If you need to discuss the colour with Store please do reach out to them on 0191 731 3300 so that they can assist with this

Many Thanks,

Worse delivery ever

The sofa was not late getting made, but it was right on the upper limit of the timescale which the saleswoman gave.

The real problem was the delivery though. They gave an estimated time slot in the middle of the week. I had to ask my elderly mother who has a bad hip to go stand in my empty living room and wait at the allocated time slot, as me and my other half can’t get time of work with next to no notice.

An hour passed, and another, and another, and another… I then had a voicemail saying the delivery driver has gone home sick in the middle of the day (England was playing in the World Cup that day…) the guy on the phone said sorry and didn’t give a date for redelivery. I tried to call back repeatedly, no one answered.
I dropped everything and went to the shop, I got a delivery slot a week later.

The day comes around, I’m in the same situation again with my mum standing around. An hour passes again, the “tracking” they provide.. they’ve got some nerve calling it that, shows your allocated time slot and never changes, even when that time has passed. I call the delivery phone number and I’m on hold half an hour in works time. The guy who answered could not have given less of a sh*t, it’s clear that he has this conversation all day and this is nothing out of the ordinary. After having me on hold again while he spoke to a supervisor or someone, he said “we can’t give a time, it’ll come at some time today”. I couldn’t do anything so I just had to ask my mum to stand around some more. Eventually, about 4 hours late, I get a call off of the driver saying it’ll be there in about 20 mins.

SCS/peltron is alright if you have no job, commitments and just sit around in your house every weekday for them to deliver your sofa when they feel like it. Oh and you can’t be too fussy about having no sofa at all for a week, because you already tipped the old one, obviously. If you don’t like the sound of that, buy your new sofa elsewhere.

Good Afternoon James,

I hope you are well.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review and for sharing your feedback.

I am very sorry to read about your delivery experience and how disappointing this has been for you.
I apologise to yourself and your mum for any inconvenience caused when the initial delivery did not go ahead, and for the change in the times.

We do advise that any timeslots provided are estimated and can change as they can come across unexpected delays. We understand how frustrating this can be and I will certainly pass on your comments to our Distribution Centre, to help us improve moving forward.

Kind regards,

I purchased a sofa from Poltronesofà in November 2025, and unfortunately it arrived with significant faults.

After a lengthy wait, the company inspected the sofa and agreed that it was faulty. A repair was arranged, but when the technician finally attended, the replacement part itself was also faulty. I was then told I would have to wait another six weeks before another repair could even be attempted.

Instead, I accepted the alternative offered by Poltronesofà and chose a replacement sofa.

Unfortunately, the problems only continued.

The first replacement delivery failed because Poltronesofà had not arranged for my original faulty sofa to be collected as part of the exchange. The company has since admitted this was their error.

Following this, the store manager agreed that I would receive compensation in recognition of the inconvenience caused and assured me that the amount would be confirmed before the next delivery. On the day of the rearranged delivery, my partner and I visited the store and were again promised a call before 2:00 p.m. with the compensation details. That call never came. The delivery then proceeded without the agreed discussion taking place, leaving me unable to make an informed decision and forcing me to decline the delivery.

After approximately eight months of delays, failed repairs, failed deliveries, broken promises and countless hours spent chasing updates, I completely lost confidence in the company. I asked for a full refund instead.

Although Poltronesofà has acknowledged that errors were made on its side, it has refused to provide a full refund and is instead insisting on retaining 30% of the order value.

The most disappointing part has not just been receiving a faulty sofa, but the way this situation has been handled from beginning to end. What should have been a straightforward resolution has become an eight-month ordeal that has caused unnecessary stress and frustration for both myself and my partner.

I understand that mistakes can happen, but I believe customers should be able to trust a company to resolve those mistakes fairly and efficiently. Sadly, that has not been my experience.

Based on how this matter has been handled, I would not purchase from Poltronesofà again and cannot recommend them.

Good Morning Susan,

I hope you are well.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review and for sharing your feedback.

I am very sorry to read about your experience and can appreciate how frustrating this must be for you.
First of all I would like to apologise for the concerns that were raised with your original sofa and also that you did not receive a call back from the store to discuss compensation as expected. This is not the service that we would expect for our customers.

As your order reference is not included I am unable to locate your details to advise further, I am sorry again that the outcome is not what you may have hoped for.

Kind regards,
