“The carpet we ordered with SCS was not only measured incorrectly leading to a large gap on our stairs where they ran out of carpet, the fitting was awful (we can no longer close our bathroom door because of it) and the carpet in the bedroom is clearly faulty with an obvious line running through it. SCS customer service has promised to call back with details about how to resolve the issue but after 2 days, several phone calls and broken promises, I'm still waiting. Just awful. I'd never use them again and will be warning off everyone I know.”

“I bought the drake sofa and cuddle chair June 2023 costing me over £2000 after 6 months I began getting white sticky patches on the chair .they sent someone out to look at the furniture and he also pointed out that it was on the sofa as well he done nothing only asked me if I had contaminated it myself I’m 72 years old I haven’t heard from them since they came out”

“My wife and I spent over £2000 on this Two Seater Sofa, Chair and footstool In August 22 (Six Months Ago) We thought it would get more comfortable with time. Not so and subsequently my wife has had to visit the GP with a very sore Tail Bone at the bottom of her spine from sitting on the couch, the chair that I sit on isn’t very comfy either. What is going to be done about this ? I will take this to every Social Media. Data Base in the UK plus, I am also going to speak with Raw Deal as well . We are both disabled pensioners age 67 and 69 and cannot afford to be throwing good money away just to make ourselves unwell. I will give SCS a chance to make this right before I take it further Regards Alasdair & Hilary Davie Cove Bay Aberdeen”

“After paying almost £4000 for two sofas from a lovely salesman in the showroom in Dec 2022, we feel very let down by after sales/warranty side…had issues within 4 months and company not prepared to do a thing even though a technician said that the seat had definitely gone defective and he would order parts, his manager overruled him and now we are having to take the matter further, following months of calls and emails, extremely deceitful behaviour from warranty company. We waited four months for delivery as well. Never buying anything from SCS again and will be warning everyone we know.”

“My sofa has developed a fault whilst still under guarantee but I cannot get them to even consider having a look to recurve fault unless I pay a call-out fee The quality of the furniture is abysmal avoid this company at all costs if you do happen to buy from these do not pay for installation as I did and had a delivery driver putting furniture together whilst openly stating he didn’t have a clue what he was doing so I ended up with chairs with legs fitted back to front”

“Bought a 3 seater and a 2 seater from these cowboys after a few weeks the cushions on the 3 seater caved in .After getting in touch with scs they sent someone out to have a look at it and decided it was not a Manufacturer fault and are not prepared to fix it and said I would have to pay £500 to put it right. Do not buy from these people customer service terrible Avoid Avoid Avoid”

“In February 2023. We ordered a lovely sofa for our holiday home. A home that is privately used and not rented out. The sofa was delivered in April 2023 - Within 4 weeks, cushions had split and the staples that hold the material under neath had come apart. The sofa had been sat on twice. Many phone calls later and an incredibly sarcastic and unhelpful male advisor, a refusal of help re repair dates. I have had to go to the ombudsman who has taken on the case. We are now in November 2023 and we have now had our brand new sofa repaired but still no sign of the agreed compensation”

“I don't normally write reviews but on this occasion I feel the need to...I had my hallway carpet fitted...I was told to take up all the old grippers on the stairs and landing, otherwise they would not fit the carpet, My grippers were virtually in great order but i ripped them up which took some effort...The two men thst came round to fit the carpet established at the time of fitting that I was single (women on her own)and did a rubbish job of fitting carpet, no grippers, not much glue as carpets lifts...I complained to SCS and guess what, they wanted to send the same two guys back out to me to put it right...I felt uncomfortable with this, these guys even tried to sell me carpet from back of their van for other rooms in the house....I won't use them again”

“The seat cushion is not of satisfactory quality. Had an upholsterer to have a look, he said that the foam was of poor quality, and should be replaced with a foam with a 30.35 ILD. They replaced the foam with the same poor quality. I complained again this time the technician said, they won't replace the foam with a better ILD as this is what I payed for. I Disagreed with the decision, he then said that he will put in his report that the chair had no faults. I would like to point out that the chair in the showroom was of far better quality. I have to be the biggest Sapp on the planet paying a total of £870 for a chair that is worse than the one I gave away.”

“Went to my local SCS today at silverlink Wallsend the sales man on the floor would not leave us alone to look and make our own decision he drove us out the door because he was so pushy”

“Bought 2 G Plan sofas which still smell 6 months after delivery. I have raised the issue 3 times, received a visit from a technician who advised he never smells an issue. In my opinion they are charlatans!”

“Poor customer service. After care waste of time, wife rang wrong number but was transferred to after care, no answer 50 minutes. rang further twice same result. Asked for a call bk twice. Both times called and hung up. 3months old felix 3 seater power and power chair. Stuck in upright position, there is power to the chair but no operation from buttons. Even called at local store Drakehouse sheffield. No help there either. I wish I'd gone to Dfs. 🙄. Poor customer service when it comes to aftercare. I assume I'm going to have to make yet another phone call.”

“Had our settee 4 weeks and leather has stretched so much you can't get comfy on it. Think it is called puddling. It's absolutely dis gusting that SCS won't do anything about it. Its like sitting on a very lumpy cushion. The leather is stretching all over the settee.”

“Just had carpet fitted, the fitters say it is faulty as it is coming away from the backing. Have rung Scs and have to send pictures. Very disappointed as not a cheap carpet and will have to go to trouble of moving all the furniture again. They say that someone will be in touch, I hope this is settled quickly.”

“Absolutely and totally unsatisfactory service from ordering to installation of our carpet,we ordered living room and stair carpet from scs Ipswich we paid in full received an email with wrong carpet quoted on order,to be fair I should of cancelled at that point,rang scs they assured me it would be the right carpet and it was an error,when carpet was to be laid carpet fitter rang to say the stair carpet had delaminated but he came and laid living room carpet which was ok,rang scs to find out when stair carpet would be here they said needed to reorder 6 weeks later it was ready arranged a time for fitter on the day carpet fitter rang said van broke down and he wouldn't be coming to be fair he came on the Saturday to fit it,next day my daughter cut her foot on inspection all the spikes are coming through gripper rod rang carpet fitter he said he would come back never has-so there you have it very poor service, customer service are very poor,regret the whole experience. Please be warned I may have been unlucky but reading other reviews sounds like this is the standard.”

“Waited 4 months for our sofas to arrive (10 weeks overdue) they arrived today one of the sofas had a rip down the side the other had a foot long black mark on one side both had to go back . I wish I had read all the 1 star reviews on trust pilot before I set foot in the SCS store never again will I buy from SCS”

“Went along to my local scs to find a good quality solid sofa and chair the saleswoman recommended the Griffin range stating it was a good investment and would last many years. On inspection in the shop it was good solid high sofa but when delivered not the same quality within 3 days of my partner sitting on sofa the seats had gone soft and he felt as though he was sitting on the floor and struggled to get out of seat. I paid £2,600 for something that can't be used because its uncomfortable to sit on.”
