"I want to thank you for the building and delivery of our 2 Jordan sofas. They are robust and constructed to a very high standard, just what we need with a lively young family. The customer service from start to finish has been friendly and the advice has been both helpful and professional without being pushy. They are stylish pieces of furniture which are very comfy and would look great in any setting."

"We were recommended to The Designer Sofa by a friend and was absolutely delighted with the service and help provided from start to finish. It was fantastic that we were able to have a bespoke sofa that met all our requirements where we could choose the exact size required and there was so much choice of fabric. Ian and the team have so much knowledge of upholstery and can also advise on certain aspects of the design to ensure it is exactly what you need. The quality and comfort of our new sofa is excellent! I would never buy a sofa now from anywhere else and recommend them to all my family and friends. Thank you to all the team."

"We always aim to please we are so glad you like the work we produced for you. All our sofas are made especially for each customer and we are very proud of the quality we produce which comes through in the reviews and feedback we get from our customers. You just don't get the attention to detail and quality that we produce in the High Street shops. Thank You From all the Team."

"Top quality sofa, made to measure, choice of thousands of fabrics and cost no more than lesser quality sofas at some high street shops. Plus a 20-year guarantee. It's nice to find people who care about what they make and sell these days. Chris Jowett"

"A big Thank You for all your advice and patience with us whilst choosing our new sofa design. You were both very professional helping with the design and the colours and materials. We have made a few minor changes which you have sorted out without question or hesitation, and we are now really happy with the final result and it looks great in our lounge. We are looking forward to many years of pleasure from it! We would not hesitate to recommend you to our family and friends who are looking for similar furniture in the future."

"It is almost unique nowadays to be totally satisfied with any service, however I am. From advice, design, manufacture and delivery these guys are the best I have encountered. Will recommend them without hesitation."

John and Gilly (4th September 2018)
"Taz, Ian and now Zak represent the very best in the business. We have nothing but praise for their craftsmanship, care and attention to the detail you want in your sofa. Their customer service is second to none. The very best of British - two new settees and third refurbished over a fair few years - we can speak from a very satisfied and longstanding point of view. Thanks guys. Gilly and John"

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you Gilly & John I much appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. when people buy furniture the just ask the price and never look at the specifications if you don't ask questions like what is the seat spring guarantee you could end up with a sofa with a 1 year and not a 20-year guarantee like the one we provide. You came back to use after a couple of years for more work because you know and trust us, this is the case with many of our customer that return and recommend us to their family and friends. Thank you from all the team"

Mr & Mrs Moon (28th September 2018)
"We enjoyed the friendly and helpful approach to the process of reupholstering our 20+ year old suite which has been transformed and looks very much as if it will last us yet another 20 years. The care taken at every stage from quote to delivery was exemplary and we'd most certainly recommend the Designer Sofa team to anyone looking to revive a tired sofa or chair."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank very much for your feedback, and it is reviews like this that make it all worthwhile. We are a family firm that treats people how we would like to be treated, from walking through the door for the first time, to coming to see your finished work before we deliver it to you. We ask all or customer to visit us when their work is compleated, whether is new or re-upholstery, to have a look and to make sure the work has been carried out to a high standard and they are happy before the balance is paid. Nothing is ever delivered to you unless it is 100%, we want you to be happy with the finished work. From all the team."

Mr & Mrs Hutton (23rd March 2017)
"Had our Belvedere sofas from you years ago and now they need some TLC thank you for restoring them. Highest quality extremely pleased with the result. Excellent workmanship nice to meet the team who worked on our suite. It's our second suite from designer sofa would recommend to everyone."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"We are now getting so many of our customers returning to us after 10 to 20years of having their sofas from us. They either want new or like you want their furniture re-upholstering back to new condition. Even though your sofa was 14years old, it has been lovingly returned to its former glory. Amazingly because we have re-upholstered your work it still has 6 years of its 20-year guarantee to run, but it will last for many years to come and will outlast the furniture you get from the chain stores today."

Peter & Sheila Roughton (11th December 2017)
"Uninspired by lack of choice, quality and value for money from high street retailers and department stores, the Internet persuaded us a trip to Long Eaton might be worthwhile. So pleased we did as the service afforded by Taz and his team was first class. From a picture we provided from a magazine, we had made a snuggler and a sofa in matching fabrics. At a cost no higher than we could have paid on the high street, we have two beautiful and unique pieces of furniture that we are absolutely delighted with. We would recommend anyone looking for quality and service and unable to find it on the high street, make the trip to The Designer Sofa at Long Eaton."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"A lot of people cannot find what they want on the high street and when they do the quality is not high enough. Smart shoppers like you think outside the box and think there must be more than the High Street and brands you see on the TV. This is where the designer sofa comes in, we can cater for your every need whether you want a really large sofa or small sofa, it's no problem for us. The looks of your sofa are important too, you can design your own sofa round the looks and quality that suits you. Thank You Ian"
