A bit of a wait as the furniture we purchased was out if stock.
But well worth the wait. It’s great furniture well made. Cushions are nice and thick. Very happy looks lovely
Delivery was good too . Just one mark on the coffee table looks like a deep-scratch but I'm not prepared to wait so long for a replacement.
Many thanks Theresa

We’re sorry to hear that you had to chase us to arrange the delivery of your product. We understand how frustrating this must have been, particularly when you were expecting your order to arrive without needing to follow up.

Pergola purchase

We recently purchased a pergola from White Stores Manchester and honestly couldn’t be happier with the whole experience.

We visited the showroom on a completely random weekday, not really knowing much about pergolas. Although we’d done quite a bit of research and had a good idea of what we wanted, we weren’t even sure it would be possible because we needed a particularly tall pergola to accommodate our patio doors, which open outwards.

We were fortunate that, on the day we visited, one of the sales assistants, Wado, was working. He was very helpful and took us around the store, explaining all the different options and variations and really taking the time to understand what we needed. He was able to design a pergola that worked perfectly for our requirements, taking into consideration the specific details of our space and even suggesting things we hadn’t thought of ourselves.

Wado was incredibly patient, knowledgeable and helpful throughout. He is such a warm and friendly person, and we immediately felt comfortable asking questions and discussing our ideas with him. His knowledge of the products and his willingness to find a solution for us made such a difference, and we never felt rushed or pressured.

We also arranged for White Stores to deliver and fit the pergola for us. The fitting was carried out by two men from Bayway Logistics, who did an excellent job. They checked with us at every stage of the installation, explained what they were doing and made sure everything was exactly where we wanted it. They were quick, efficient and extremely polite, and they cleared everything away once the job was finished.

We’re absolutely delighted with the finished pergola. It looks beautiful, fits our space perfectly and has completely transformed our patio.

A huge thank you to Wado and the team at White Stores Manchester, as well as the two men from Bayway Logistics. We’re absolutely delighted with our pergola and highly recommend them!
