“Sofa ordered 23/7/22. Delivery date was promised 21/10/22. This date has changed multiple times and I was told that SCS had it in small print that 4 weeks either side of this date was acceptable. Delivery date is now estimated 1/12/22 which is over 4 weeks late - trying to get communication with SCS is torture. I’ve not even received the sofa yet and it’s been a terrible experience……”

“Still waiting after 8 attempts to get a call back to get conformation of my sofa been cancelled and deposit back. Pushed into the purchase after advising we were just looking by been given a good deal at the time lead to belive if the new property fell through we could cancel which it did been trying si ce 20th September 2022 to get this done. Would not recommend SCS Cortonwood Barnsley to any one sales staff far to false and sale oriented.”

“AVOID AT ALL COSTS just received a 3 seater, 2 seater and footstool. All are damaged,so phoned asking for it all to be uplifted and a refund. After my conversation with the agent at the call centre, this doesn't look like it's going to go well at all. Really disappointed to be honest”

“Faulty sofa delivered. After several weeks They sent someone to inspect it and said he didn’t have the necessary skill so they would send someone else. Several weeks later they same man returned!! It was ordered in my partners name but they had no problem speaking to me on several occasions. Today when enquiring about the next steps they suddenly won’t speak to me because of data protection. This company is a joke!! Do not use them spend your hard earned money somewhere else.”

“Have had a Rafa leather 3 settee for nearly 2 years now. 3 weeks ago the settee developed a fault. Left arm rest became loose from the inside fixings. Contacted insurance and as it was a "manufacturer fault" they didn't want to know. Contacted SCS direct to explain the issue and they agreed with the insurance outcome, then went on to say" the frame is only under warranty for 18 months". This would have been easier to accept if was explained to us at the time of sale. We were sold the warranty as "all singing and dancing cover" which it clearly is not. Will never go near this company again after purchasing several settees in the past. So disappointed with the poor lack of support.”

“AVOID THIS SHOP AT ALL COSTS. Had sofa delivered with a broken frame. Couldn't use part of sofa for four months until replacement delivered. Replacement came with no feet and 7 faults which delivery men found when unwrapping. One being that hinges didn't line up so corner sofa didn't fit together properly. Couldn't get full refund until 2nd sofa picked up so I am left with no sofa for five weeks until new sofa comes from a better shop! Scs Couldn't give a damn poor aftercare and shoddy quality furniture! AVOID THIS SHOP”

“We had a corner sofa delivered but it had wrong feet and other issues. We had 5 delivery teams over several weeks coming to the house with replacement suites but with same issues. Finally a team arrived with the intention of fixing the suite but thy were sent with the wrong stuff so couldn't do it. The suite caused damage to our laminate flooring and it was agreed we would recieve £300 compensation for this, which we did. Finally we accepted the offer of a refund. The suite was collected leaving us with nothing to sit on. Now SCS are saying that the £300 compensation must come off the money we paid for the suite. Also we were told we had already received a part of the refund too but we have received nothing. No one says they know what is going on and we are minus a suite and short of £4650. We will now go to court if it is not paid soon in full. It has been a complete shambles from start to finish.”

“Purchased Cancace 2 and 3 seater sofa, made a complaint about the seats all sagging only had it 2 months. Aftercare came out to check it, took the whole sofa apart, why I don't know, only complaining about the seats. He said they would contact us in a weeks time, we'll that didn't happen. Phoned them after a month, they said there was a small tear which had been sorted out on the day. I didn't have a clue what they were talking about. Scs has just phoned to say there is nothing wrong with our sofas. So please whatever you do DONT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY”

“Disgusting customer service. I have colour loss on a leather settee which SCS promised to repair, even brought new leather covers to replace faulty ones. Their upholsterer said he was only booked in for 2 hours when it would take 6 so therefore he was unable to carry out the work required. After ringing SCS more than once to rearrange I was finally told 4 months later that they would not attend to any repair taking more than 4 hours labour. Surely they should have known this before promising the repair”

“I have given one star when infact I don't rate these any stars! My poor friend had her sofa delivered and both her and her young daughter were put in a very vulnerable position and left very traumatised by the awful delivery men who demanded she gave them £50 because they had slight difficulty in getting the sofa in her home, and they refused to leave her property until she did! This was reported both to SCS and the Police. SCS have recently written to my friend to inform her that both men have been dismissed from their job, and as a gesture of good will they will refund her the £50! As a gesture of good will!!! the money was wrongly taken from her in the first place! Absolute disgrace! She should be receiving compensation after what her and her daughter was put through. Not a bloody gesture of good will!”
