“Terrible company to deal with, 0 customer service and poor quality products. Please avoid this place as they sell you display furniture as new and make you wait weeks and weeks for delivery. Shameful”

“Worst company I have ever dealt with. Dining furniture delivered with no chairs !!! still waiting for chairs 8 weeks later with no communication from them apart from when it’s me that’s doing the calling. what we meant to do eat out dinner on the floor. Last week was meant to get replacement chairs as stand in but still not had any !!! almost £2700 and this is the treatment you receive. I would never order from this company again”

“I have bought several furniture items from Designer rooms in the last 6 months and have had the following issues: A bed room package for my daughter, ordered 6 months ago. First bed and chest of drawer arrive damaged. I call the customer services and a few days later I am offered paint to paint over the chipped panels. I complain and then they offer me a new bed replacement and a new part to replace the chest of drawer. Second bed arrived several weeks after and it’s worst then the first bed. With the panels chipped this time on the outside of the bed, very visible, I call again and the customer service manager promises that she will ensure the third bed is checked prior to deliver to make sure it is not faulty. The third delivery arrives again a month later. The delivery guy asks what is wrong with the bed and what is being replaced. He then goes to the van and comes back to say he is sorry the bed panels are all chipped , therefore leaves without replacing anything. I have been in touch with the manager again. I have been offered a replacement or a new bed all together however I can’t not go through this again. Designer Rooms has beautiful furniture however what you receive isn’t what you see in the showrooms. 6 mints later and 3 replacements later and my daughter’s bed is still damaged with chipped panels. We ordered a Fuji dining table 1.8m long and after weeks of waiting we receive a 2m table that has massive scratches on the glass, and it’s obvious it’s ex display furniture. I call again and get a partial refund on this just so I take my review off. The TV unit , first arrives chipped, a replacement part arrives weeks after but then the delivery drivers cause further damage by replacing the damaged part. I order a replacement one again and week later another one arrives it’s fine but the LED light isn’t working. So after 5 months of being in our new home we were finally able to put our new TV on. Moving on to the coffee table , again weeks after ordering a damaged table arrives with scratches on the glass and on the legs. I call and return the table with full refund however I had waited all this time to have my coffee table with the same quality I saw in the showroom but what I received again was an ex display table. I purchased a new coffee table from John Lewis and it’s in perfect condition with no scratches on the glass. My experience has been awful and so stressful. I am still waiting for my dining chairs and worried what quality they will arrive in and how much more of this I can take. Please avoid designer rooms, they send you ex display furniture when you have purchased a new ones. They do not quality check their products before delivery and take weeks and weeks for delivery. Can’t say much about their customer services either. You get better quality items in IKEA to be honest. At least you get what you pay for. Dishonest company (sending you ex display furniture and charging for new), poor quality furniture and long delivery times. Avoid at all costs.”

“I saw two items ( lovely mirror and a bedside cabinet) reduced to very reasonable price to take away from the Coatbridge store at Mackinnon Mills. Stephanie served me and was very helpful and Ross wrapped my goods and waited for me at warehouse door and safely deposited the items in the boot if the car for me. Both staff members were very open and had pleasant demeanour.”

“6 months still no delivery date for the furniture I ordered. Shocking customer service and after sales service with no commuation whatsoever. Loophole they are using is we were only given an approximate delivery date so are not entitled ro a refund. Make sure if buying from this company to get an exact delivery date in writing. 🤬”

“Designer Rooms following a visit from technical staff who confirmed my leather suite was flawed not fit for purpose called me to say problem was wear & tear and not a fault. Someone is not telling the truth. Not the sort of company anybody should trust to supply quality goods. Please beware.”

“Worst customer service I have ever experienced. Still not resolved. No communication No apology No resolution 1. I was told 6 week delivery 2. I was told payment was required in full to order 3. 10 weeks passed no delivery and no update from Designer rooms 4. I called 3 times to be told the stock hadn’t arrived and there was nothing they could do. Note: no apology offered during any of my 3 calls 5. Finally on my fourth phone call a delivery date was agreed Note: 14 weeks after my purchase 6. Planned delivery day I was contacted at 3pm to be advised the goods would not be delivered as the van had broke down. Note: still no apology 7. Finally the goods arrived, faulty and with the wrong screws. 8. I had to supply photographic evidence of this despite it being reported by the delivery staff 9. Now being told this cannot be resolved until the supplier re-opens at the end of August, a further 22 days from deliver I fully appreciate that unforeseen situations arise, however communication an apology and an anticipated solution goes along way. In future I will shop elsewhere and would advise any other customer to do the same. Expensive furniture/store with the most appalling customer service department and customer aftercare. Once they have your money they don’t care. Shop at Next at least they try to resolve any issues and communicate with you.”

“AVOID! AVOIDI AVOIDI !!! I would give zero stars if that was an option. I have never experienced such poor service and they just don't care. Do not expect them to communicate with you. You will spend weeks chasing them. Do not expect them to communicate with each other. That won't happen. Do not expect them to take ownership of the issue. They don't know how to. You can buy the item you like, cheaper elsewhere. Do it.”

“Furnished new house mainly from designer rooms part of which was an expensive leather suite. Unfortunately part of which has deteriorated just after the 12 month warranty period elapsed the surface is peeling off not in areas of wear. Designer Rooms have totally turned their backs and accepted no responsibility without even the courtesy of looking at it. Disgraceful customer service and indeed attitude.”

“Paid for a small mirror which was in the warehouse and ready for collection in a few days. No contact made by DR to collect in 7 weeks despite me making contact with them to chase up the order. Item is only now ‘available’ because I have requested a refund. Absolutely shocking service. Their “no refund” policy is a breach of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 when they cannot fulfill an order.”

“Spent over £1700 on a sideboard, couple of lamps and a clock. One YEAR later and the sideboard just arrived this week after threatening them with court action. The lamps and clock...still not here. And like everyone else....you guessed it...no refund allowed. Don't know how they get away with this.”

“I placed an order for furniture in october last year.... guess what!!!! 10 months later ,still no furniture. I paid when i placed the order ... big mistake.. As the other customers are saying they will not refund your money, only offer store credit which is absolutely useless if you dont need anything else... They told me they always have problems with that supplier, but have opened a new showroom in Braehead and on display is the a piece of furniture that they said they can't get. I too have contacted trading standards, the guy said next time he is talking to them he will bring it up. To me that sounds like he talks to them quite a bit.. I wonder why ??? To all those who are thinking in purchasing anything from this company.. think long and hard.. these reviews are from real people with a real problem”
