“We bought 2 sofas last September 2024 was told will be delivered before xmas this did not happen was told Italian company was taking over so everything was delayed. Although we did get our sofas in January we feel we was mislead at the start so in view of this we will never go back to scs again”

“We had a suite from scs and we had a few problems with it but we got in contact with scs and they offered us a very substantial offer of cash but we just wanted a nice workable suite so they offered us all our money back that we had paid and then pick a new suite which we did and it will be delivered shortly , fantastic but we dealt with the lads in Dundee scs and they were absolutely brilliant they spoke to you as if you had known them all your life , great bunch of lads , would recommend the Dundee store every day of the week , well done lads keep up the good work 👍”

“Sofa was ordered in January and arrived over 2 months late and when the sofa has arrived it is faulty (seams where they shouldn’t be and two different colour fabrics used). I contacted scs and when I eventually got through they said they would send someone out. Another few weeks later they visited and agreed it was faulty but then went away and decided to only authorise one of the two repairs. I’ve been quoted another month for parts to arrive so I’m now 5 months from ordering with a faulty sofa. I’ve tried many more times to contact scs since to request a replacement or refund with no response. I received them on Trustpilot and they responded saying I had received the replacement part and when I looked it had been sent to an address over 100 miles away and then I got an email to say they’d sent the part again which would take 5 weeks to come. No response or explanation again. Honestly please don’t put yourself through purchasing with this company”

“Bought a Lugo corner sofa with electric recliner and a lugo 2 seater power recliner but SCS delivered the 2 seater with no recliner. Tried to reach out for a resolution but SCS just ignore my emails. Started a money back claim through my bank and also rejected the goods under Section 15 Consumer act. Once they have your money they dont care. The Lugo sofa chair has also started to sag after a few weeks use. Wishing I had went elsewhere. SCS seem to specialise in ignoring complaints. Horrible company”

“Bought 2 sofas 14th January. Expected delivery 26th April! Disposed of original sofas to make room. Then tx to say delivery delayed, not in their depot till 9th May! Another delivery date set for 13th May. Road closed at Chelmarsh but Highley fully open. No delivery again!! Another date set for today 15th May, I’m not holding my breath!! Telephone system abominable, also email system. You just can’t get an answer. Shop staff got the patter for these situations. I’m a pensioner and have had nowhere to sit for a month now. The stress and hassle is unbearable. If you’ve any sense, don’t touch them with a barge pole!!! 😡😡😡”

“My suite from SCS delivered 17 April 2025, so disappointed. I have tried to contact them on several occasions and had no response. The suite in the shop looked lovely and so well made. Got rid of our old sofas for this.”

“Ordered 2 sofas on January 19th estimated delivery was March 21st emailed on April 8th she said same delivery date but it could go 4 weeks over. Text message April 14th delivery for April 19th, as Easter had to rearrange to April 25th waited NO spas delivered. We are now May 8thSCS got my money and sofas and we’ve been sat in garden chairs until a loan sofa was delivered! Have now requested a full refund as SCS in breach of the consumer rights act 2015 for failure to deliver within a reasonable time and after agreed deadline. I now treat my contract with SCS as terminated so demand a full refund!”

“We are still waiting for our order to be completed five months after delivery date. Our order was delivered in December with the incorrect footstool and five months down the line they keep pushing back delivery. It's very hard to get hold of anyone and when you do they just tell you the computer says it will be in on X date, only for then that date to come and go time and time again. Seriously the worst company we've ever had to deal with, avoid at all costs. We've had to engage with the ombudsman it has been that bad.”

“I have given them 1 star because I don't have the option to give zero Had problems with my sofa from day 1 Yes they did send an engineer out who said it wasn't a mechanical problem but my recliner still sits an inch lower than the seat next to it. The whole sofa is is pants non of the cushions line up, the seat I sit on is divorced and gone out of shape even though it's supposed to be stung and was assured it wouldn't misshaped and I have only had it 4 months I have sent them 10 emails with no reply, but I will send them 1 every day until they answer me, plus it will make my case a lot better when I take them to the financial ombudsman because what they have sold me is far from the one I saw in the shop, to tell you the truth the one I got rid of was far better than this new one So just be aware when you buy something from SCS and you have a problem they aren't the best at communicating”

“Appauling customer service..100% no means of speaking to a customer service rep on same day as you call. You are advised to press 1, and they will get bk to you. This is ALWAYS 24hrs later..the delivery status on your tracker states one date and there is no pre evening txt containing the delivery link..please do not use this company..They suck the life out of the enjoyment of getting a new sofa..please,please.. go elsewhere and get something in writing about customer service and actually speaking with someone the same day as you call..Whole experience has been awful n i'm still awaiting a delivery text for a sofa due today..”

“Ordered the sofa in January and paid in full with delivery in March. The date has been changed for the 2nd time for delivery into their distribution centre. No one answers the phone, and no one gives a straight answer. I would advise that you go elsewhere for a sofa than this bunch of cowboys!”

“First off salesman ordered WRONG colour…….in upstairs sofa reclining chair footstool. Long delays in delivery, kept changing dates. Sofa upstairs very poor quality, material puckered, back of sofa different heights, was told the ottoman had storage…it has NOT! Downstairs reclining chair material has stretched and puckered and material has bobbled. Spent a fortune ( to use ) with scs and I bitterly regret doing so. My advice DONT shop here.”

“Don't buy from scs one repair inches first year and needing a second one which they want to charge £75 pounds for. The springs aren't covered after a year so don't sit on your sofa because that's what will fail. I have a 4 seater corner sofa that only 2 ppl can now sit on. DONT BUY”

“Purchased from SCS due to supposed quality of this furniture. How wrong was that decision. £5000 pounds worth of inferior quality furniture. present one, after two years. upholstery base and back lost all support in parts, patches. Now twoyears old . Big waste of money. Had a previous leather suite from DFS for 15 yrs (Not LA Z-boy) now passed on and still in good condition. Obviously LA Z- boy furniture not the quality it supposedly was”
