About HSL Chairs - Solihull
Written by the company
HSL is an award-winning family furniture business with stores nationwide. We’ve been handcrafting and delivering beautiful furniture to provide true comfort for over 50 years. Making people comfortable is part of our DNA and that is why we do it.
We have spent over half a century making it our mission to understand the different sizes, shapes and needs of our customers. We have learnt how people sit, rest and sleep; how their bodies bend and move; and where and why they ache. We call this knowledge CleverComfort™, and it goes into the design and manufacture of every chair, sofa and bed we make – ensuring that our furniture fits the bodies of our customers perfectly.
Award Winning
HSL has also been recognised by The Queen’s Awards for Enterprise for one of our innovative designs, our wooden knuckle. The Queen’s Award for Enterprise is a prestigious award for recognising British businesses and other organisations who excel at promoting opportunity, sustainable development, international trade or innovation.
Made in Yorkshire
Whilst our roots still remain in Yorkshire, we have welcoming showrooms nationwide spanning the entire country and a national network of Home Visit Comfort Specialists performing consultations in our customers’ own homes.
Family Business
As we’ve grown, one thing that has never changed is the passion for comfort and furniture being at the heart of our business. We’re still family-run, we continue to hold traditional values in our hearts, and we have always been dedicated to providing a caring service and excellent value for money for all of our customers.

It was a tricky purchase but the staff at shirley were really helpful 👍🏻
First Class Service
Excellent service from Rachel and Vickie exceed all expectations.
Rachel communicated several times to ensure product (Sofa) was fit for purpose.
Choose your ideal chair in comfort!
Kim was marvellous at helping to choose a suitable chair for my uncle.
In advance of choosing a chair I would now recommend that you take measurements of the user BEFORE visiting a showroom. Kim was extremely patient with me having to phone my uncle and getting his carer to take the measurements.
As the chair will take 6-8 weeks to make and deliver, I cannot comment on the product, just the experience of choosing a chair, which was great.
Really helpful
Lovely chairs, good range of style, colour and sizes. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff who gave us plenty of time to consider our options
HSL Leather Chairs
We received our HSL Leather Chairs - absolutely beautiful and so well made. We are thrilled with them so thank you so much. Paul and Paul, who delivered our chairs were super - had quite a tricky time getting the chairs inside, around corners etc., but they did it despite how extremely heavy they were - all with a smile and super customer service in mind - so professional. You are both a credit to your company. Thank you.

A lovely warm welcome …
A lovely warm welcome when I entered the showroom. Rachel took the time to understand what I was looking for and there was plenty of time to try out the different chairs and sofas for comfort. There was no hard sell or rush to close the deal, just a relaxed conversation about the options available, the size and fitting points and the pros and cons for different circumstances, all over a nice cup of coffee. I left a couple of hours later having placed an order and am now eagerly awaiting confirmation that my furniture has been made and is ready for delivery.
Friendly and informative.

Outstanding Service.
Excellent advice and very courteous and friendly service at the Solihull Showroom. Hassle free attention to all our queries and chair trials. I even got to sit in the Chair I liked best for fifteen minutes enjoying comlimentary tea and biscuits! Our order for the Chair was processed immediately after the refreshments and our chair was delivered in the agreed time slot a few days later. All the chair's packaging was taken away as agreed. The Chair itself is fantastic just as I had hoped.

Excellent Service
I have received excellent information and service today from Prabs at the Shirley, Solihull branch of HSL. She is an excellent ambassador for the company; very professional in a gentle and friendly way and extremely knowledgeable.
This is the first time I have been an HSL customer myself but I did support my elderly mum to buy a rise and recliner chair many years ago so I was expecting quality service and that is what I got today.
I am looking forward to receiving my Burrows Relax chair in due course.
Very Happy
we visited the HSL Solihull branch and I was sure I wanted a fireside chair!! After being shown around by Vickie who answered all my questions and I came out after ordering a recliner chair. It has been delivered today by Alex and Jed who were soooo helpful and friendly and who made sure the chair was where I wanted it and fully working. HSL have been great from start to finish and whenever I have called them at head office all my queries were answered completely. I thoroughly recommend this company
Kim & Rachel were extremely helpful

Excellent service and help choosing reclining chair
I went to HSL to buy a reclining chair. I have had back problems for many years and have had difficulty in finding a chair that was comfortable. Rachel spent a lot of time waiting whilst I tried out sitting in many chairs. She gave good advice on how I sat and what I needed for correct posture. She was very patient and waited whilst I went for short walks to steady my back as trying the chairs was causing pain. I couldn't fault the care and time Rachel spent with me. I am looking forward to receiving my chosen chair believing that this time I have a chair that suits my needs. I had been to four other showrooms and none of the assistants were as helpful, caring and attentive or had the expertise and knowledge that Rachel. had.
Couldn’t have done it without Rachael
After approximately 18months sofas, chairs and fabric choices have been made. Thanks to Rachel who has been so patient through my many changes of mind about which seats and fabric combinations for the first time in my life I bought a 3 piece but in various colour and fabric choices.
The Solihull showroom staff have been warm and welcoming. Shout out to Mike for an excellent coffee and shifting of chairs around the showroom to help me rule out some dubious seating combinations.
All that’s left is to patiently await the arrival and to enjoy my new furniture😊
