“Absolutely terrible service spent 9k 6 months ago was told 3 months delivery time nothing 3 months time order delayed due to shipping was promised November delivery again nothing in November then in December get a call that 2 out of 3 had arrived and a foot stool hadn’t been sent so would now have to wait 6 months for that and January 15 for my corner suite. After several calls and complaints after January the 15th getting told that suite has arrived but has ended up at the wrong depot and would have to be moved before delivery can be arranged again it’s took them over 2 weeks to do this today feb 1st still we have no confirmation of delivery. Don’t expect the managers to respond to emails and the staff on the phone are useless not willing to help and tell you that they can’t do anything about it. Avoid this company spend your money elsewhere”

“DO NOT buy a sofa with sofology! If I could leave 0 stars I would have. Awful experience. We ordered a sofa with them, they arranged delivery date and they also arranged for Clearabee (miserable men that did this) to remove our old sofas the day before delivery of the new one. Old sofas taken away, next day of delivery no contact from sofology with a time slot. Get to lunchtime I contact them to be told that the new sofa is ‘ missing’!! How do you loose a corner sofa??! Have tried to complain but get nowhere. Got my deposit back as would never have re ordered the sofa with them and wait another 3 months for them to loose sofa again! So now we have no sofas at all thanks to sofologys lack of professionalism and communication! Absolutely the worst company ever and please listen to these bad reviews and give your money to a company that will not leave you with nothing to sit on. Terrible company that should be properly looked in to for what they do to all these customers. It’s unacceptable.”

“Having seen so many negative reviews, I feel like I have to share our (very positive) experience! We’ve ordered our new sofa first week of Sep 2021 just after we moved into our new house. The sales person at their York shop immediately told us the waiting time was 20 weeks and although it sounds long, we knew this is not an unusual lead time in the given circumstances (lack of lorry drivers, increased demand, etc.). The sales person provided us with a lot of info regarding different grades of leather, showed us additional leather samples which were from outside their standard range, etc. We decided to go for Sandro 1.5 Seater Terminal/ Corner/ 3 Seater (Cat 200/36 Pure White). 20 weeks (and 5 days) later, I received a call that our sofa arrived in their delivery network and could be delivered to us in 3 days on Sunday. We booked the date, received a confirmation via email and the day before our delivery we also received another text with 4h time slot. The Sofology team arrived bang on when they said, swiftly put together our sofa, disposed all the packaging and gave us enough time to inspect our new sofa to ensure we were happy with it. Everything was perfect (no marks, no scratches or tears) and bear in mind the sofa is in Pure White! It may have been an expensive purchase but quality costs and we are very happy with our purchase! Thank you Sofology!”

“Ordered our sofa originally 8 months ago now, first delivery attempt was wrong! Our corner sofa had an arm in the middle of it 🤦🏻‍♀️ After so much to and fro, we finally got to a resolution after having to drag a good will gesture out of them like getting blood from a stone. Fast forward another 4 months and the sofa was delivered WRONG AGAIN!! We try to get to a solution but customer services act like you are inconveniencing their day having an issue with the fact your sofa is wrong and there’s no hierarchy of management to speak to. Even emailing area managers warrants no response!! They take your money and do not deliver on their end of the agreement and act as though they couldn’t care less, this would never be allowed in any other business and what an embarrassment to work for such a horrendous company. I hope and pray they go bust as we have never had such a bad experience with a company before and all the negative reviews come as no surprise. We would much rather spend our money at a trustworthy establishment!”

“Absolute POS product. "20 year guarantee" is misleading. That guarantee only covers the structure. Anyway I bought a £2000 sofa which is VERY expensive next to the competition, because I wanted a high-end product. Within the first year the electric recliner mechanism broke. Engineer who fitted the new one said 90% of his job is replacing those things. About one month after the 2 year warranty expired, the recliner on the other side broke. £143 to replace with a 12 - 14 week lead time. To order this you are expected to just bank transfer money to their be account. No acknowledgement, no order confirmation, you just have to wait 16 weeks and hope I guess? Anyway a couple weeks later the recliner on the other side, which was replaced”

“Bought Sofaglide to protect new flooring which had been laid. Ended up with 2 massive scratches in the floor. Turns out they had forgotten to send the sofaglide, and so reject all claims for damage to the floor and have 'kindly' reimbursed me the £30. Really helped ease the pain of my new £2k floor being ruined. Shocking customer service and would not recommend to anyone.”

“Six months wait I could except do to covid, but to be told on day of delivery they had lost my sofa how do use lose a sofa? After many many phone calls it never came to light although they kept saying it was in the warehouse which I found hard to believe, after 3 weeks of phone calls they agreed to give my money back which did go back into my bank very quickly. When I read about all those people with faults to their furniture that they can't get put right I feel I have had a lucky escape. I would never recommend anybody to get furniture from Sofology showrooms are lovely as are the staff its after sales which lets them down.”

“Worst experience ever! Had to wait 6 months for the sofa to be delivered. When the day came , the driver advised that the 4 seater spilt sofa had been sent in 2 different colours ! We have one half brown and one half black! Driver advised it was best that they left it with us as it meant that the replacement would be sent quicker . This is not the case. I’ve had to call and email numerous times , waiting for hours on hold. By the 4th call I was told that the sofa would be reordered and we’ll have to wait till May 2022. I asked for email confirmation, again nothing. Called again this week to be told it’s now June 2022. Again no confirmation in writing . I was told that there was no one I could escalate this issue too. We also paid £40 for a care kit which we’ve yet to receive, that’s a 7 week waiting time. We’ve paid nearly £3000 for this sofa and been left with 2 miss matching parts. The customer service is so poor . Seems sofology are quick to take your money but not resolve a major issue . Never again!!”

“AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!!! Agree with every negative comment here and they don’t even deserve one star! I have ordered my items in August, still have missing items in mid January and still haven’t been contacted by Sofology after me wasting so many hours waiting on customer service line day after day and having the same conversation with I guess pretty much all of their customer service staff by now. Huge let down!”

“Bought a linara sofa from sofology. Almost immediately we had sagging problems. Sofology have sent out two experts(term used wise) to assess. Both didn’t sit on the sofa. Both turned sofa upside down and said webbing ok and left. Sofology won’t send anymore people out to look but said I can do my own report if I want although I doubt it will do any good. I even said I would have the one in the Doncaster showroom as that one seems fine, but not allowed that one. So I have said I want a repair or refund as sofa is not fit for purpose but sofology don’t want to know. I would avoid these clowns at any cost.”

“No regard for data protection. Looks like they use a foreign company to send marketing emails to avoid data protection laws. I am getting marketing emails from them. No contact email whatsoever to contact them, only a phone number to the sales department who don't care. No reply from Facebook messages either.”

“Terrible service, sofa arrived late with marks on. 3 months later after the sofa was delivered I have still not received the cleaning and protection products I was advised to buy to keep my sofa looking good. After sales service and communication is diabolical.”

“Linara sofas sagging within days. The cheap filling is a disgrace. Nearly£4K for a pile of junk. There’s even a fb page for cheesed off customers. Customer services nightmare to deal with and technicians like robots spilling the company spiel about how normal this is. Just avoid at all costs.”

“Thank you for arranging my refund so quickly which was paid into my account within 3 days. Your customer service was professional and friendly. Thank you for all your help and we still love the lounge suite we purchased from you.”

“We ordered a sofa and chair from Sofology p, Poole in September 2021 with an expected delivery date of 18th December 2021. Amazing customer service in store. We then read all the negative reviews and were really concerned if we’d made a terrible decision. At the beginning of December we were advised by email our furniture had been delayed and we thought oh no is this where it all begins. However we then received an email saying they expected the furniture on 8th January 2022. We received a phone call on the 11th January to arrange a delivery which was booked for 18th January. We got a text the day before advising us of a 4 hour time slot for the following day. The delivery came in the promised time slot and the delivery men were very polite, unpacked the furniture,made sure all the recliners worked and that we were happy with everything. In light of all the terrible reviews I thought we should put a good one showing they can get it right, maybe we were lucky but we cannot fault them.”

“Totally agreed with all negative reviews. Just no words to express our disappointment! Do yourselves a favour and simply avoid this company. I'm certainly in opinion that someone (hopefully there is a lawyer in the readers) must gather all these bad reviews, bind them into a thick folder (containing all customers info) and sue Sofology company in the court for being quick in swallow customers' money but providing zero customer service, not delivering the ordered products as promised etc etc. Any one volunteering? It is simply a systematic fraud! Happenes again and again to each client who falls into their trap.”

“Dreadful experience. Sofa ordered 4 months ago. Full balance taken a month ago but one sofa went missing then found but unable to determine how it could be delivered. Sofology cancelled my order and refunded my money without any final discussion. Absolute disgrace. Do not shop with these time wasters!!!!!!!”
