“ScS Sofas – false advertising, arrogant customer service and zero accountability I ordered a sofa from ScS after seeing their clear advertisement promising “delivery before Christmas.” Shortly after placing the order, the listing was changed to delivery after Christmas, even though the original advert clearly stated otherwise. When I raised this issue, ScS offered an explanation blaming their supplier, claiming that the delay was “beyond their control.” However, this does not excuse the fact that the advertisement was misleading and no proper update or apology was provided to customers who ordered in good faith. When I contacted customer service, Jamie was arrogant and dismissive, showing no interest in resolving the matter. Instead of helping, he made the experience even more frustrating. To make things worse, ScS suddenly changed the finance instalment amounts, then later denied any changes had been made. This is not only unprofessional but also potentially unfair trading behaviour. Since then, my follow-up messages have been completely ignored. There has been no accountability, no resolution, and no customer care whatsoever. I will be escalating this matter through every possible channel, including the Ombudsman and regulatory authorities, to ensure ScS is held responsible for misleading advertising, poor conduct, and unfair treatment. A truly disappointing experience – I would strongly advise others to avoid ScS Sofas.”

“First delivery was cancelled with no explanation or follow up delivery , considering the delivery time was from 7am , i had to physically go into the shop to get any answers , the rearranged date came and they arrived , very negative from the start about it not fitting, considering the old sofa was a large dfs jumbo corded corner , so I had to go back again to the shop, and I now have to wait for them to try again .. joke of a company , It'll be my first and last time buying .. if I could give less than 1 star I would”

“We ordered 2 four seater sofas (Ontaro 580) and a foot stool in the same colour. When they were delivered the foot stool was the correct colour however the two four seater sofas were completely a different colour (Ontaro 540) ! We called the same day of delivery when we began opening them and sent them WhatsApp photos which clearly demonstrated the colour was the wrong colour. 6 weeks later after so many stressful calls to their customer service team and putting it into writing with photos we still were no further forward. We kept being told they were ‘going back to the manufacturer’, we were still no further forwards and were offered £154 from the manufacturer for a ‘shade difference’ -we of course declined this as it was a completely different colour not a shade difference. In the end we drove a 200 mile round trip from our home in Oxfordshire to the store in Harlow where we placed the order with one of the sofa cushion - at our own expense. The stores manager agreed the manufacturer had indeed delivered the wrong colour and wrote to the customer service team outlining this. After not hearing for a further week we called them to ask for this to be resolved. It still took a further week before finally SCS offered either a refund or for us to deselect a different sofa as the ‘no longer worked with the manufacturer’. We of course opted for a refund as I would NEVER EVER purchase from this company again! It took a further two weeks for SCS to uplift these items from our home and another 4 days following us calling again to request the refund.”

“I bought 2x 2 seater settes and a separate chair just short of 2 years ago. The chair cushion has sagged really bad definitely not comfy any more and looks shocking.., alas SCS don't want to know only to send a technician out at a price of a £75..as if he's going to side with the customer...I doubt very much. My last suite lasted 15 years I expected this one too...don't waste your well warned money on SCS... luckily found a an upholsterer who said the filling is really sub stranded and will right it for £46. Thank god there are some decent retailers out there”

“Absolutely disappointed with my SCS sofa. I paid £1700 (some on interest free credit). Delivered 19th June 2025 and the sofa is already sagging where I sit - and material loose and sagging. 2 seater electric reclining and each seat doesn't line up with the other. Technician been - what a letdown! The mechanics work OK and he felt the sinking foam seats weren't a problem. I will be taking this further. I'm not someone who usually leaves reviews but felt I should. If I could give no stars I would.”

“Paid over £3000 for a reclining sofa and chair thinking I was getting good quality furniture. After a year was crease wrinkled and saggy. Complained to SCS as I was paying over 4 years and didn’t want to carry on paying for this rubbish. After many emails and being ignored all they suggested was sending someone out to assess it at a cost of £60! Absolutely disgraceful customer service and quality. I will NEVER purchase from them again. Still paying for a sofa and chair I no longer have as it was so disgusting. Got far superior from DFS and over £1000 cheaper. I am absolutely disgusted that I have 2 more years to pay on an inadequate and horrible set of furniture”

“Disgusting company our sofas have never been fit for purpose now going through small claims court we will NOT leave this! Don’t expect your sofas to last more than a few weeks before they start sinking! The material is disgusting! And to try and dirt it out to get money back from SCS just don’t bother that’s why we’ve gone to court.”

“I was in a terrible spot after being unable to recover my lost funds. It felt like no one could help me — until I met Mr. Erin and his team. They were calm, clear, and incredibly supportive from the first message. They had a real plan, and their instructions were so easy to follow. What I appreciated most was their constant communication. They made me feel heard. And in the end, I got every cent back. I’m beyond grateful.”

“Absolute nightmare. After paying nearly £2300, SCS delivered a sofa with a mismatching base and back rest with different colours and texture. It is nearly a month since delivery still making silly excuses for not getting it swapped. SCS says it is a manfacture's problem and reluctant to do anything about it. Going to consumer court for sorting this out. Avoid........”

“The nightmare continues... Sofa delivered with holes in the base on 19th May. Lots of phone calls but no response. Eventually AFTER a review (3 weeks later, after ignoring previous correspondence) we get a response. We are told that a technician from Emmiera will come and examine the sofa. 7 weeks after having the sofa delivered, the technician arrives. The communication with ScS and the technician means that he hasn't got the right coloured materials to mend the base; the sofa also has NO fire safety label. We don't want the sofa, and have informed ScS about this on the few occasions they have responded to communication. I will be seeking legal advice as to where we stand with this fiasco.”
