AVOID AVOID Only had the £3300 sofa less than 3 months, at which point we started noticing the seat had dipped on one side. On closer inspection we noticed the foot was wobbly, when my husband tried to tighten the screws, they were just spinning around, so we phoned the engineer. The engineer came out, took all the inside packing out, and didn’t replace them, then tried to tighten the screws which he couldn’t do. He then got up said do you want the sofa replacing or fixing, to which we replied I’m happy if you can fix it to which he got up and said ok well I will make my report out, and you will hear from furniture village soon, and we will get it sorted. Days passed and we never heard anything, so after phoning furniture village being disconnected put on hold, and being put on a wild goose chase, we finally spoke to someone who told us unfortunately the engineer tells us that the sofa has had a heavy impact, and it’s your fault, and the manufacturers warranty does not cover this. LIARS, THIEVES, AVOID THIS COMPANY. PETER HARRISON CEO, you should be ashamed, I am taking this further.

Hi all. Brought a reclining chair and was happy enough but then noticed that oil was leaking from the hydraulic ram. It leaked on our recently overhauled floor (sanded and re lacquered for in excess of £1000 ). Furniture village were slow to react and eventually refunded the monies paid after a number of visits as they said there was a fault with the chair. Since then customer services ( joke department) have offered us £80 😂 then £100 😂😂. I consider this an insult. They did say that they would pass this to their insurance company and call us back, this has yet to happen. Nobody will take control of this issue. I ask you to never purchase from this company until they become the company they could be.

Avoid at all costs! Wish I could give minus stars! Spent nearly £4,000 on sofas, a bed and mattress, was not told I’d be waiting over 5 months for sofa delivery and when requested to cancel my order I was told I was unable to do so unless I forfeited the £360 deposit paid. Sofa cushions are terrible, flat and ill fitting, technician told me I had to plump them by removing covers multiple times a day, thread coming out of the arms, a rip in the fabric which apparently was not a rip but a join to the frame and was stapled together, and clunking when sat on - this was after only 3 weeks of delivery! Bed frame broke within 4 months of delivery still waiting for parts 3 weeks later with no updates. Mattress is terrible but was told when reported I would “get used to it” but I have chronic illnesses so this is causing so much pain but still being told it’ll settle and there’s nothing they can do. I’ve had to call them more than 6 times due to them not honouring their word to call me back and basically told it’s my fault as I’m not caring for it properly and because the shop didn’t note my issues within the 30 days of delivery they said it’s my word against theirs. My complaint email has not even been responded to after almost a month and numerous chasing. I’m out almost £4,000 and they couldn’t care less - absolutely deplorable customer service along with the rubbish and not fit for purpose furniture.

Avoid at all cost. Very poor quality at very high prices. First suite delivered damaged replacement suite delivered damaged, opted for yet another replacement different manufacturers this being the third suite and it was delivered damaged now I have full refund. customer service is awful. Best advice to anyone avoid furniture village and best advice to furniture village is close your doors and stop trading

Most staff at Gateshead really helpful however some are only interested in the sale. They are paid on commission so ……. Two years after purchasing my sofa I am still battling on, initially store handling customer service and they did there best. When second sofa arrived faulty customer service had changed to a call centre and my real nightmare began. Eventually after miles of emails, photos, on the phone for hours on hold, got a phone call from a customer care manager whom you cannot call directly??? Eventually because my sofa has now been discontinued so they cannot replace and a similar one would cost more because of price increases they have offered a refund but this would mean no suite for 16 to 20 weeks and additional costs. They have offered a repair but will only pay £50 towards loss of earnings, I accepted one repair and technicians van broke down so it did not happen. Any decent company would not put their customers In Such a difficult and intolerable position, there is definitely no care or customer service at Furniture Village See for yourself before buying, give Customer Services a call it is very disturbing at how long the call wait times are

This is with out a doubt the worst company I have ever dealt with, They never respond every time you call which takes over an hour to get through they just tell you that someone will be in contact with you within 72 hours which is a LIE. I am now going through my bank to get this resolved, my advice is STAY WELL AWAY

Worst company I have ever dealt with say they will call you back but never do spent 4k with them and they treat you like dirt once they have their sale goods not delivered when they say excuse after excuse given, goods not right when delivered and what a job to speak to them about putting things right Worst thing for me was seeing my wife so frustrated trying to deal with them had to do it myself in the end Don't put yourself through it buy somewhere else and save yourself a LOT OF HASSLE

This firm feels like they are operating as a large scale con. What I received was of much lower quality than the one in store and I have been trying to return it for months. The staff make you go around in circles and keep restarting the whole process. The staff then progress to making various threats and ignoring any requests.

Ordered my sofa at the beginning of July last year .. a year later I am still waiting for my sofa that I have paid for !! I have a phone call to say my sofa has arrived to be told on 3 occasions that it has been “lost in the warehouse”. I had to fight to be able to get a loan sofa when this first occurred in October barring in mind I was 7 months pregnant. The loan sofa arrived broken and we had Someone come put to look at it from furniture village who said we should never have been left with it and it’s not fixable.There has been no replacement and we still have a broken loan sofa a year on with no sign of our sofa. I have never received such bad customer service and am still waiting for answers. Very upset. After posting a Google review nearly a month ago I got a reply and the review and was asked to send a email to an address… still no reply. They have my money and I still have no sofa and it will be a year next weekend that I ordered it. Really don’t know what to do now. Disgusting customer service

We Brought our sofa over a year ago we took insurance out but been told that my cushions Have turned mauve because it’s facing the Sun !!! My sofa is facing the TV I’ve been told there is nothing they can do about this no one even came out to look . And then I get a email saying if I can prove it’s a manufactured fabric fault they will look into this . This surly is there job to sort this out that’s why I paid 250 insurance 😡 All I wanted was for them to replace 3 cushions now I have a £4000 so far that is mauve and grey . This is disgraceful by your company over the years I’ve spent a lot of money with yourselves and so have my in-laws but now we have learnt our lesson don’t trust your company and I’m sorry I will let the public know that you will not help me replace my 3 cushions even though it’s not my fault This happened to my table that we ordered at the same time problems with that as well and my in laws sofa was delivered with the wrong cushions Disaster after disaster after disaster So so up set

Purchased an very expensive Italian Nicoletti sofa and 2 arm chairs - paid over 3.5K. Ordered the suite in June and it arrived late in September. The most uncomfortable sofa and arm chairs we have ever owned. Avoid Furniture Village at all costs.

Thieving company taking our money and not sending a replacement. DO NOT USE. Stupid, terrible, ridiculous, rubbish, unprofessional company. Ordered a 3 seater sofa and a cuddler back in November 2021, said it would arrive 20 weeks later. And so they did in April 2022 with a malfunctioned cuddler and the three seater sofa's spine completely broken. They told me we don't have to do anything, they logged it and the company will resend a new sofa in however long. I chase the village up several times and I explained we require a replacement for the sofa and we need someone to come round to take a look at the cuddler as it isn't working electronically. I was then on the phone to someone else a second time and had to explain myself the situation, worried this time the message was not getting into them as they can't understand the very simple situation I am in. They managed to send someone round to fix our Cuddler, and at this point I am praying they are getting our replacement sofa ready for us. 9 weeks pass, no word from the village, I get through to their customer service and the woman tells me no replacement is on its way! Nothing! And what is worse, the type of sofa we requested doesn't even exist anymore. My partner and I have been in our cold conservatory during the winter and during the summer boiling whilst we wait for the Village to send our replacement sofa so we can finally use our lounge we haven't been able to use since Christmas. This is a terrible company who don't know what they are doing and would have got away with over £2000 of our money if we just kept waiting and waiting. DO NOT USE.
