We are extremely disappointed with our experience with DFS. What should have been an exciting purchase has instead turned into months of frustration, unnecessary stress, and poor customer service.
We purchased a bed, mattress, and sofa from DFS, and unfortunately the experience has been one problem after another. The bed started making loud creaking noises shortly after it was delivered, and it took numerous phone calls and a great deal of persistence before DFS finally agreed to replace it.
After waiting around three months for our sofa to arrive, we were shocked to find it had been delivered with visible dirty marks. After such a long wait, receiving furniture in that condition is completely unacceptable. It appears that no proper quality checks were carried out before it left the warehouse.
To make matters worse, the sofa care kit that we paid for was missing from the delivery. We paid for the product but never received it.
The customer service has been equally disappointing. Before making the purchase, staff were attentive and eager to help. However, once payment had been taken, the level of support changed dramatically. We were also informed that returning items would result in a 20% charge, even when the issues relate to the quality of the products supplied.
Overall, this experience has caused us a considerable amount of stress, wasted time, and inconvenience. We expected much higher standards from a company with DFS’s reputation. Based on our experience, we would not recommend DFS to anyone and will certainly not be purchasing from them again. Anyone considering buying from DFS should think carefully before doing so, as the product quality, after-sales service, and overall customer experience have been extremely disappointing.

Long long long lead times on sofa, shop itself was undergoing works so only 15 or so sofas on display, a million members of staff lounging around on sofas...

We had to wait a long time for a family that was looking at a sofa we were interested in. Robbie very kindly ask if we were OK. When I explained he politely asked the sales person to move the family whilst we had a look. We finished up purchasing the sofa. If it was not for Robbie I think we would have left
Thank you so much, can't wait for our new sofa to arrive.

Pleasant young lady who is in training, checked with her manager to make sure she gave us the correct information. Was helpful but didn’t put us under any pressure, she explained the extras available and accepted our choices.

Professional, friendly but not overly.
Knew his way round the iPad to bring up all the correct details. Double checked I’d ordered the correct item
