“We have now three items of furniture from Oak Furniture Land, which all on first inspection seemed fine. It’s not until you start using the polish do you notice the rough finish. The backs - sides and insides, these you can’t polish without the cloth being grabbed and torn. We had enough trouble getting a sideboard exchanged which had been damaged in transit, so decided just to put up with these rather than go through all that again. Of course I realise this could be the reason they make it so awkward to exchange products, it worked with us. We won’t be purchasing item number four.”

“Bought a table last June arrived a few weeks later but with the wrong chairs, rang up and swapped them no problem, ordered a tele stand, nest of tables, side table with drawer and a mirror last September. Rang them to ask when they were being delivered in January they had forgotten to place the order but could deliver just the mirror and tele stand 2 weeks later the rest would be April. That arrived as promised but then they rang me to tell me that the rest of the furniture still wasn’t available it will be another 3 weeks: when it arrived it was the wrong piece again, rang up to be told that’s what I ordered even though I didn’t and would cost me to get it changed. I understand with Covid things have been slow but 8months and they still can’t deliver the correct furniture. The guys who did the delivery were lovely on all occasions and the people on the phone but the staff in the shop rude”

“After waiting 3 months they tried to deliver one grey half and one navy blue half of a corner sofa. They couldn’t find the other half and expected us to wait another 7 weeks to get the rest of our sofa. After being offered a pathetic £60 compensation plus some vouchers for their store we got a refund instead.”

“Furniture arrived damaged,obviously happened during loading as the box was damaged by a forklift so there could not have been a quality check. We complained and were told we could have a £120 off to keep it as damaged or wait for a replacement. My advice is to order furniture from somewhere else.”

“Ordered our coffee table in September 2020 told date for delivery was 23rd December. It arrived on that day. So far so good. We immediately noticed there was damage to one corner of the table and the leg had split from top to bottom. It had obviously been dropped. After an hour and 20 minutes wait in the phone queue. Was told a new one would be delivered in feb 2021. After a “sorry” text to say this wouldn’t be happening we are still waiting for a new table. Ofl have had our money for 7 months and we would like what we had paid for in perfect condition. My advice is buy your furniture from an independent company. You might just get better after sales service.”

“Ordered a lot of furniture from OFL, all seemed OK but I noticed later that the door in my sideboard had two slits, but because 1 year had passed they didn't want to know, even though I couldn't get through to them because shops were closed and couldn't get reply by phone, they have refused to replace the door, disgusting customer care once they've had your money, I'm so angry”

“Waited six months for a light mango wood coffee table to be delivered only to open the box to find the top slightly damaged. Tried all afternoon to contact them without success and have now given up. Happy to take your money quick enough but once it's delivered you either lose the will to live or put up with what you get. I am gutted after waiting so long.”

“Diabolical service over and over again Updated review:: after the absolutely diabolical service I’ve received after all this time, my order arrived today they had sent the completely wrong thing. Embarrassed to say I had a breakdown on the phone to customer services due to the sheer stress this whole process has caused me. I will never, ever order anything from this company again and strongly advise others to not to either. Terrible service over and over again. I placed an order back in November for which I was charged twice (£700+). It took at least 5 lots of 1hr wait times to get through to customer service to be told the refund was never processed. Finally got the refund. My house then burnt down (very stressful) so I phoned OFL to let them know my new temporary address. Unsurprisingly the order turned up at the house that burnt down. Spoke to a very rude woman at customer services who didn’t believe me, told me my order would have to go back to the warehouse and take several weeks to be re-delivered. Spoke to her manager who was much more compassionate and rescheduled it for today. I’ve been waiting all day, waited half an hour at the end of the day to get through to customer services and was told the driver would be here in 20 mins, no phone call, no email and NO delivery. Awful, awful service, some nice customer service reps (some are incredibly rude) but terrible systems and I won’t be ordering from here again, not worth the hassle. I don’t know where my items are or if they will ever get delivered properly. Save yourself the bother and order from a better company.”

“I ordered dining room furniture (dining table and 6 chairs, 2 x sideboards, 2 x lamp tables and a coffee table) on 5th October 2020 and was given a delivery date of 11th Jan 2021. Shortly before this date we sold our existing furniture to make room for the new furniture. Then nearer the delivery date we were told that most of the order was available but not the dining table and chairs. We asked to have everything else delivered, but were told that we would have to pay for the full order to do this - so we did. We accepted the new delivery date for the dining table and chairs which was 30th March. Then today (26th March) we are told that the delivery date has now been moved back to 23rd April. After the usual "we are experiencing an unusually high demand" on the phone line, It was confirmed that we couldn't have our dining table and chairs until the new date (remember, the order was placed on 5th October 2020!). I suggested that as this was all one order, I should cancel the whole order and ask them to collect the part order which had been delivered. I explained that I had a contract with them to supply a full set of furniture that they hadn't completed in the contracted time, and therefore I had every right to cancel the contract and receive a refund - I was told that I couldn't do that. Wishing to be reasonable, I suggested a suitable compromise would be for them to deliver the 6 dining chairs (which were available and paid for) and temporarily lend me a dining table from my local shop until my table arrived in late April (or who knows when). This compromise was rejected out of hand by Oak Furniture Land. (Don't forget, we haven't had a dining table or chairs for months at this point) What a wonderful experience this has been - be warned! Appalling customer service.”

“Lied to about delivery to get a sale, and let massively let down by aftercare and delivery team. We bought, a lot of furniture in September 2021. We decided to go go to Oak Furniture Land as the first company we went to could only guarantee delivery end of January 2021. We decided to shop around and we went to Oak Furniture Land. We found a furniture set welcomed and from speaking to the sales assistant she said that delivery date would be just after new-year. We were undecided at this point as we loved the furniture set and it was only a delivery date of a few weeks earlier. The delivery assistant then told us that it would most probably be delivered early anyway saying she was 98% positive we would have all our furniture before Christmas. Based on what she told us, we bought the furniture. We were due to have the furniture delivered Monday 4th January 2021. However this was not the case. 28th December 2020, exactly one week before delivery, we received an email stating that they could not deliver and provided a link with a new delivery date. Angry and frustrated, but as the furniture was already paid for, we begrudgingly proceeded and the earliest available delivery date was 2 April 2021! Another three months down the line. As it happens today Friday 26 March 2021, 6 days before delivery, we have received yet another email saying they are unable to deliver and to select a new delivery date. The earliest date they have is 15 July 2021, another 4 months down the line. Having been lied to at the start and no prospect of receiving the furniture in a timely fashion we called up to cancel the order and get a refund. Firstly, we are upset that we were being made to wait so long for furniture. However, the main issue is being lied to at the beginning. I truly believe that this was a lie to get a sale. And from looking at the website they are advertising the same products with a 12 or 16 week wait. Again I would suggest to anyone buying this is a lie. They have monumental backlog of orders, and any new orders will be added to this. I believe this to be a pathetic display from a company as big as Oak Furniture Land. I will not be back and I will encourage others to stay away.”

“after waiting 7 months for my tv unit the delivery driver left it in the street and told me I would have to take it upstairs myself due to lockdown restrictions I told him it was supposed to be a door step delivery not a street delivery. Two days later my daughter got a delivery from them and low and behold they delivered to her top floor flat and placed the chair inside her hall. It seem if you are getting easy to handle furniture that is not heavy it can be delivered to the door step and not the street. Will never use this company again.”

“Terrible service! Wrong sofa delivered after 12 week wait. I ordered a grey corner sofa, One half was grey the other was blue! They took the blue away and said a manager will be in contact. I then started to unpack one half and found it was badly damaged and ripped. I called head office very upset this had happened and was told to wait another month for re delivery or a refund. For me this a is terrible service I will do my best to tell everybody to not shop at oak furniture!”

“After Sales Customer Service Issue. After buying many products from this company, we recently ordered a triple wardrobe. On delivery (which did come early), we found two doors to be damaged from shipping. A new door arrived within a week but the problem was with their sub-contractors 'homeserve'. They were contracted (it's in the emails), to contact us within 24 hours in order to set a date to come and fit the door. It took almost 2 weeks and 3 phone calls just to get the date. Oakfurnitureland were not interested insisting it wasn't in their remit and could to nothing to chase up homeserve. On the said date they cancelled 2 hours before. This couldn't be helped, but the next date they could come was yet another 2 weeks away. Meanwhile our bedroom resembled a students living quarters. In the end my husband fixed the door himself. Oak furnitureland are sending another door out to repair a dent in the other side but the frustration in trying to arrange this has put us off ever purchasing from this company again. Our contract was with Oakfurnitureland, not homeserve and they should have stepped up to the mark.”

“Faulty furniture, Homeserve came twice to no avail . Asked for replacement which was to be delivered yesterday . I was expected to dismantle the recliner settee and chair and build the replacement! Told them to keep it and have organised collection and refund . Again I can only get the refund if furniture is dismantled and wrapped ! Unbelievable. I checked with Furniture Village in case it was because of COVID . They deliver , put together check and take away all packaging, which again Oak Furnitureland do not .”

“I would leave 0 stars if it were possible. I ordered a dressing table in November and the projected delivery date was for 3 months later. I received emails confirming a delivery time slot, but on the day itself, I did not receive the delivery nor did I receive any communications as to what had happened. Upon calling customer service, I was told that I had been apparently left a voice message on the day of delivery to inform me that the table wasn't in stock and wouldn't be arriving until June. There was no apology for the lack of communication, no explanation as to why they didn't follow up with me via email and their only response was to either wait for June or cancel my order for a refund. I opted for a refund via phone, and it has been several days with no further communication from oak furniture land and no refund as been issued to my account. This company has taken my payment for 3 months although they had no means of delivering the product. Even when contacting them, they have yet to issue me a refund. A shambolic company that I will now be avoiding at all costs.”

“After waiting 16 weeks for our sofa parts of it was missing on closer inspection of the three packages these where the label on there. Note different order number and different names, which name of them is my name . I phone the store and complained which they reply fill out a fault form with picture ,which i did and sending attach of labels. They was not interested about the labels and said they would order the missing parts. Which i have chased twice . Phoned again today and the chap was willing to help and did agree that they got the attach of labels. I also told them about the delivery drivers that where rude as i paid for the service for them to put the sofa in the house ,as the the driver was having difficultly in getting the sofa though the front door shouted " i haven't got time for this " and dump the sofa outside and walk off he did come back after i said i can take the front door off and again rudely said the his colleague he reckons he can get the front door off. I asked for compensation for missing parts of sofa having other peoples orders and rude drivers. All they come back with £70 voucher to spend in store. I will never use them again. If you don't want the same experience them stay clear”
