Ordered a sofa and matching chair beginning of September with a twelve week delivery time, this came and went with no contact from FV whatsoever. So we made numerous phone calls to the store we where finally given a date for delivery of the 22nd December, after going into store (as no one returns your calls), On the 21st December we checked that our ordered was still due for delivery the following day we where told yes everything is in the green and we should receive a text with the time slot. Well the delivery came the next day a loan two seater sofa not our order god only know when we will receive that sometime in January 5 month after they had taken our money disgusting service first and last order I will ever place with FV how they have the nerve to advertise on TV is behind me. You can see from the attached pictures what we ordered to what actually arrived

went back to the store straight away after delivery to tell them to take it back, was told that you have to have it for 2 weeks and then come back and they would make arrangements for someone to look at it to see what was wrong and take it from there, I have now found this out to be a trick on behalf of Furniture Village but thankfully thanks to Which Magazine I was in time to get my refund, There trick was that if you wait as requested the 2 weeks then waited because they say there was a belay in getting it looked at and it goes passed 30 days the option of refund is harder to sort out, don't get caught up with this but say straight away that you want a refund and put that in writing, go to Which web site and put info in and they will email you a letter to email to Furniture Village serving them with your rights, don't get caught up with delaying tactics.

BUYERS BEWARE Bought a Nicoletti leather electric recliner suite ( £5000 ) from the Southampton store, when it arrived one of the electric transformers were missing. Waited one month to get it, also found out that the USB system on the suite did not work and still doesn’t, the porcelain gliders which were fitted at an extra cost are still unable to allow me to move the chairs. Furniture Village sent out their independent inspectors( CASTELAN ) to review my complaints, the agent verbally agreed the furniture was not satisfactory and would write a report to FV. I have waited one year and still have not received a copy of this report, I have requested this on numerous occasions and was promised I would get it. I was sympathetic that the Store Manager ( Chris ) was extremely ill and due to this fact allowed the lack of response to drag on and on, recently found out that Chris had a brain tumour removed, his replacement store manager ( Garth ) stated that although Chris was seriously ill he should have dealt with the issue as he was still being paid during his illness. FV are now telling me that despite contacting Castelan they are unable to retrieve the original report. So I have a suite that was possibly manufactured badly. Furniture Village in my opinion is the worst company I have ever dealt with and seriously regret doing business with them.

I placed an online order. I as told it would be delivered in 7 days. Six weeks later still no delivery. I have paid in full. I tried live chat and was supposed to be transferred to another team but just got left hanging. Tried calling and was 39 in the queue! Sent an e mail a week ago and no reply. This is appalling customer service. Not even worth one star

I had to have 2 replacement items - a 2 and a 3 seater. The original delivery had 2 problems in that the arm had come away from the 3 seater and and the 2 seater frame was broken. An external engineer confirmed the faults. The replacement had the foot rests catching on the power settee and an almighty 'thump' on it being lowered. The 2 seater frame was again broken. Again, an external engineer confirmed the faults. Reluctantly, I re-ordered and the latest furniture seems ok so far.... I am concerned buy the leather creasing on another review as I have this issue on the second set after only a few weeks. The delivery guys said this was a common fault and theer was not enough foam in the cushions ! To pay £5k for a 3 piece suite is not cheap and I expect high quality. Concerningly, for the delivery people to say this shows how common a problem this is. So, 3 separate deliveries at my time, faults galore. Not even a gesture of goodwill ! Come on FV, show your worth.....

Nothing but problems! My mum spent almost £3500 on leather sofas… arrived and delivery man said they wouldn’t fit through the door (WITHOUT EVEN TRYING) . Then she was charged another £480 for them to “dismantle the sofa and rebuild inside her house “. After just a few weeks of use… sofa is sagging inwards and made a loud bang when my frail (7st) mum sat on it. Once again, called out technician… who toook off a panel underneath sofa and after 5 mins looking with a smsll camera inside, said everything is fine!!! Absolutely disgusting service and terrible quality products! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!

AVOID - Faulty products and horrendous customer services The product was faulty and it has been over six months and we still don’t know when the problem can be resolved. We bought a £4000+ bed with Tempur mattress from furniture village. The delivery took ages with missing parts for the bed (and broken panels in one bed side table) but these were the least of our problems. The supporting frame for the mattress does not sit horizontally on the bed frame, with an over 1 inch gap at the foot end, so it is rocking on the metal bar underneath. When you sit on the bed it naturally makes a lot of noise, and when you lie down the two of you would roll to the middle. The headside is lower than the foot side. They sent a home serve repair technician after weeks of delays but he could not fix it and asked furniture village to order a new support frame. After several weeks of further waiting, it finally arrived but the same problem persisted. The furniture Villiage guy installed it said he could not fix it and we had to get a replacement or refund. However, furniture Villiage insisted on sending yet another home serve technician to CONFIRM the problem before refunding us, and this is likely to prolong the process for weeks again. It has been well over 6 months and we still have a faulty bed that is giving us backaches. The sales people are great and the customer services people are friendly when you do manage to get through to them (and it is always a struggle to get through to them), but the company is not interested in helping customers and they would put you through hell if you experience any problem. We might have to seek legal action against the company if it is not resolved soon . In fact given the number of people experiencing similar problems as shown on this review site, perhaps we should all get together and take collective action to sue the company for damages. They offered faulty products that are faulty and clearly not fit for purpose. We just bought a house and quite like some other furniture in the store but will not be buying anything from the company again.

After 8 months of waiting finally, received our dining table and chairs. The whole experience with furniture village was so bad from day one , we will never use them again and I have warned everyone I know not to use them . Staff were rude and unhelpful especially at the Crawley branch from the manager down. Positives the lady I spoke to at Southampton was very helpful and got our chairs delivered promptly ( there was a month between deliveries of table and chairs) Also the delivery company Celtheath Ltd very professional.

I worked for them and was told to send damaged goods regardless. Lazy managers that only want to hit targets.

Bought 2 sofas in October 2018 delivered December. Only ever cleaned with stuff I purchased from them. I now have leather sofas that are peeling. They sent some one out to have a look on Wednesday they phoned me Thursday to say it was contaminated but he can't say what with and that its not a manufacturer fault he only looked and rubbed sides with white cloth (different leather to cushions). And to be told it's basically my fault because it could of been on my clothes, then I was told even what people eat or drink comes through your pores. So basically don't buy leather from furniture village if you intend to eat and drink and sit on your sofas. I was also asked by another employee why I was cleaning it and I said because its dirty bearing in mind sofas are light grey to be asked well how are they dirty, well because we sit on them. She put phone down on me in the end because she said I was shouting I wasn't I was annoyed to be made to feel stupid.

Now on our 3rd leather sofa from furniture village Darlington. Which again has gone faulty they sent there independent technician/clown to do a report. He agreed the foam had flattened but there was no fault to the frame,webbings, but was unable to do a repair because he has nowhere to do it? But now the report has come through to say their “technician” found no fault I am now in process of getting a independent report done on advice from trading standard. And going down the legal route. Our sofa foam has flattened as is not capable of support and completely unusable, and didn’t even reach its first birthday. I Would certainly not recommend this company to my worst enemy, and very sad to see so many people around the country have had the same treatment. But I will endeavour to fight to the end as you all should

Bought a Carolina " leather sofa " top surface started to peel after few months on seat cushion and head area. They sent out their "expert to examine " told it was because I had put my head on the leather and the oil had made it peel ...what a load of nonsense. This is not real leather but has a polyurethane coating sprayed on it.. Fobbed off until they said warranty has run out, noiw not interested in keeping customer happy...Avoid anything made out of fake leather from Furniture Village ...

I have purchased many items from this store and yesterday I visited the Brighton store with my daughter. Our salesman was Paul and we bought a dining table high backed settle and bench. Paid a deposit and signed Finance papers. This was promised to be delivered before Christmas. This morning she received a phone call saying No worries but your items can't be delivered before Christmas. She had to cancel the order and was informed she would have to drive over to get refund done. On arrival it wasn't Paul who we ended up dealing with. I was told to give him my card and he would set up the refund but that it had to be written on a form and sent off. This wasn't explained to me as I had to pay by the card machine and thought I could get refund on it. He didn't answer my question. We then asked for proof that the finance and refund were done. None of our questions were answered and his attitude was shocking. He then told my daughter not to argue. She moved towards him and said loudly that this was arguing. I am absolutely disgusted with the way he dealt with her and he said he would call the police. She said go ahead. He walked away and shouted Happy Christmas as we left. There were other older staff sitting at desks but nobody tried to defuse the situation or explain your policy in any way. As I said I have bought lots from your store but will never shop there again. I would appreciate it if you contacted my daughter and apologise on behalf of your store. My daughter's name is Louise Stillman
