“I would not have even rated them 1 if there was a choice of 1 or minus. They don't inform customer that you are not allowed to cancel your order and they don't verbally or give you written figure of the cost ie glides etc. Why would I want glide for stool costing £40 when if can lift it . I tried to cancel my order within 2 hours I was told that I could not because allegedly the manufacturers have started to build the sofa. What a load o bull. The Manager in Dartford store is rude, abnoxious and a liar. Had heard how of how many unsatisfied customers there are. Stupidly i was trying to prove them wrong. Legally you have the right to have 7 or 14 days cooling off period but this is the only way SCS traps customers.”

“We bought a sofa which was over stuffed and manager in shop did not want to know. He suggested he comes round and jumps on it. Give it time he said. We did it was no good. Contacted customer services and we had to pay for one of their upholsterers to do report on sofa. She said over stuffed and took loads out. I asked for refund of fee as sofa was faulty when delivered. They refused.”

“Ordered carpet and wanted to include passage but was told it couldn’t be done as manager was to busy to work out a price so unable to get it. SCS phoned to say carpet would be fitted today first thing came back from holiday early to get furniture out of rooms no carpet fitter arrived unable to contact SCS by. Phone texts or emails my advice would be avoid. At all costs especially the hull branch do not use they talk a good sales pitch but don’t deliver”

“After carpet was fitted we found damage to walls where plaster had been damaged - carpet not fitted properly - not stretched enough before cutting - it bubbles up in several places - 6 months later we are still waiting for job to be fixed - terrible service and attitude - will never use them again”

“This is a lying unscrupulous company. Sold me flooring and arranged weeks ahead for fitting .on the day no text so rang and on list .3pm no show so rang back and said my fitting cancelled because this scummy company got a full house fit so cancelled without telling me. My son and I were self isolating the following week as he was due to have serious valve and artery heart surgery so they promised next day then cancelled as didnt have the flooring. It took nearly a week later and was difficult to sort out with self isolating. Fitter said he was leaving as they are as dodgy as they come blame game never them . Shocking customer service and a totally unscrupulous company PLEASE AVOID like the plague”

“Customer service is non existent. Ordered sofas after was told it would definitely arrive within 12 weeks, we did leave 3 weeks after just in case. Got rid of old furniture one week prior to our 12 week dead line to now been told after phoning every day for over two weeks that the furniture maybe another three weeks plus before deliver. A e. Mail or phone call would have been good to let us know the furniture was delayed. They quick to take your money but that’s about all they care about”

“Never again! Carpets laid last November - 3 out of the 5 styles we chose are defective and need to be replaced. The third carpet was only surveyed and confirmed faulty a week ago and without any contact from the aftercare team, fitters turned up expecting to replace that room while doing the others! As for the sofa, cushions lost all their shape within 2 weeks of having them, currently having to plump up about 3 times a day just so they look kind of ok although no point as they are flat again the second you sit on them. Customer service.......doesn’t exist! Would not buy from them again. Wish I had read previous reviews first before buying.”

“Worst service I have ever received, firstly we did not receive order confirmation email as they did not take down the correct information, secondly when we finally got the email after holding for hours on several days we got the emails but with the wrong dates agreed for the carpet to be fitted, when we contacted the store, they cancelled that date but did not get back to us with alternative date, we then had to contact them again after being on hold again for over 40 minutes, they then confirmed another date after I had to visit the store, during this visit we were told they had no carpet fitters to fit the carpet but they still continue to sell carpets and promise fitting even though they have no fitters. After the second cancellation I informed the flooring manager Lee that I expected another date confirmed today, I did not hear from him for several hours, so finally I had to call customer service line again on hold for nearly an hour, was finally put through to the store Lee informed me that he could not confirm a date, so I if the regional manager would conta6me to discuss, he called me back and said that the regional manager could not contact me as they were to busy !!! I then informed him that I would be cancelling my orders for both the carpet and SOFAS, where he then informed me that we could not cancel and that we would be sued if we did. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. Please do not use. The store in question is the Purley Way branch in Croydo”

“STAY AWAY!WARNING! Where to start but I'll make it in a list for simple reading: 1-flooring ordered with wrong doorbars sent. 2-received contract which was incorrect in fitting costs. 3-had to pay double fitting costs as SCS totaled the wrong fitting price! 4- waited three months to get flooring fitted. 5-had to rearrange fitting dates as they had no stock after ordering. 6-had to get another fitter as the fitter they recommended was verbally rude and abusive. 7-had to chase refund for additional fitting fees that we were quoted contractually wrong. 8-bad blasay service from manager. 9-had to go into Croydon store four times to project manage staff 10-constant emails to store and HO with no outcomes 11-WORST EVER !”

Don't bother... we signed but we're still undecided and told we had 7 days to change our mind. So we thought we had 7 days to cancel. They DO NOT tell you otherwise. My partner started to feel unwell and left the shop to sit in car i was starting to feel groggy. so I signed thinking if we didn't want it we would straight away cancel. A few hours later we got more poorly went and got tested and sad to say we have covid 19 hence the rush in store when we started to feel groggy. I tried to cancel 6 hours later sent numerous emails and phone calls to be told no they didn't imply we could cancel, which they did. And we were buying this £4000 couch weather we liked it or not as we signed doesn't matter on the circumstances unless someone died or got sacked which they would want proof. My partner and I are now quite poorly and stressed and just stuck with it. No1 wanted to help and the emails I got in reply were quite snotty. Never have I been treated in such a way by a company. And never will I ever go near them again. The fact our father bought a sofa which totally peeled after few month should have made us stay away. They ignored his calls to he's stuck with it. We were assured in store this was a one off and needed to sign. When I got back and read reviews it's not a one off at all..”

“Poor quality products that are massively overpriced compared with the other sofa shop a few doors away. Aggressive commission based selling of unwanted add ons and when we tried to cancel our order we were treated with rudeness and disdain. Unfriendly , unprofessional and unhelpful. I would definitely not go back and will tell everyone I know not to use this shop. Rude, rude rude.”

“The price was great for my new sofa,I was given the hard sell and assurance that the sofa would fit in my front door ,apartment but guess what it didn't,for 3 hours it was left on the doorstep in the rain until some other driver came to pick it up.Then came the attempt of taking it apart and putting it together in my apartment a week later l add,the cushions don't fit,the back of my sofa is stitched together appallingly .weeks later ,12 hours of my time trying to speak to people about this ,having to repeat myself time and time again because they keep passing me over to some other idiot to resolve the issue,I'm so very angry with such poor and inadequate people whom personally don't have a clue what they are doing.18 weeks I placed my order,I'm finding my sun loungers more comfortable would not recommend this company at all its appallingly customer service.”
