"After a lot of searching around for a sofa, I realised what I wanted, to what I actually needed was not going to materialise. I found an absolutely amazing company, who were willing to do exactly what I wanted, the colour I wanted too. Despite the current climate, they were still able to deliver. I can not speak highly enough about the quality, the comfort, the materials used were absolutely perfect, from beginning to end the whole team have been professional and thoughtful towards me as a customer, kept me updated with processes, never failed with responses. I had 2 pieces made to measure, I can only say how exceptionally pleased I am, that I choose this amazing company, they absolutely delivered the outcome as promised. So pleased, I would shout from the roof tops to say I strongly recommend them. If you want quality, style, bespoke with no corners cut, this is the place to be. Just to add professionalism is the icing on top. These guys surely deliver the result. Thank you so much, from one exceptionally happy customer.🤗"

"We found this fabulous company on line while looking for something else, and what a find! We rang and enquiring about getting new sponges for couch and chair, Taz explained they could do them just put the covers in the post, we will do the sponge for you and deliver them as he didn’t like to use a courier! We were not disappointed the cushions are amazing and are really comfy. Thank you so much everyone involved!"

"This is a brilliant company, staffed by helpful, flexible people who take an enormous amount of pride in their product. The sofas produced by The Designer Sofa company are absolutely top notch. Beautifully made, very robust. You genuinely get the impression when they deliver you the finished product that they love your sofa as much as you do! They're so proud of their craftsmen and upholsterers and are understandably horrified at some of the shoddy, over-priced rubbish parts of their industry are happy to churn out. All this for a good price. Given that they can make absolutely anything in any style or material you want, why would you go elsewhere? We showed them the type of arm style we wanted in a magazine, they made it. We found a wool we loved from an obscure Welsh mill, they sourced it and made a beautiful footstool out of it (which would have cost three times more if we'd bought elsewhere and would have been nowhere near as well made). A quick story to illustrate the customer care you get from Tas, Zac and the team: as they were delivering my sofa from Long Eaton and my dad still lives there, I cheekily asked if they could also deliver an item of furniture my dad was giving me because they were coming up anyway. It was a very heavy butchers block which takes three men to lift. Many businesses would have said no to the extra hassle. Not only did Tas agree without hesitation, but one of their carpenters fixed its leg while it was at their factory! Free of charge! In his lunch hour! Because "he loves anything in wood and couldn't resist it"! It's the sort of care and pride that you only get with a family company more interested in pleasing their customers than chasing a quick buck. This is the longest online review I've written for anything, ever. I don't normally bother, even if I'm pleased with what I've bought. But I felt so delighted with my sofas that I felt compelled to share what a great little family business this is."

"We thank the team of the designer sofa in Long Eaton for the excellent service. They carried out a home visit to check the sizes of the three-piece suite, from the initial visit to the to the delivery the team were always quick to answer any questions and make sure the specifications were exactly what we wanted. We have now had the three piece suite for several weeks and we can only give the highest recommendations for the quality and service thank you to the team at the designer sofa, thank you. John"

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you for calling us a team because that's what we are, we believe a team can work a lot better than a collection of individuals, everybody has to do their part from start to finish to make a good experience for you. I really wanted to make you happy, because you told me the last two suites you have had you have been unhappy with them and this is your third attempt, that's why you have waited to do this review you because you wanted to try the furniture for a few week first to make sure he was happy. This means a lot to me Ian"

"Thank you so much for our lovely corner sofa. It fits the space perfectly, and is really comfy. I have waited a year to write this review, as I wanted to truly test the sofa! Well, after dealing with two kittens, and four adults, and all the cushion covers being washed (we specified a washable fabric) it still looks like new. The ability to choose precisely so many aspects of the design; the helpfulness and expertise of everyone and the superb quality of the sofa are a few reasons why you are the best!"

Doreen and Roy (2nd June 2016)
"We are sending as promised some pictures of our `new` 3 piece suite. It is hard to believe that this is our old one re-built! You have done an absolutely marvellous job – we are delighted. Friends who have seen it so far can`t believe what a magnificent job you have carried out and you have been such a friendly firm to deal with. Needless to say we shall certainly recommend The Designer Sofa to anyone who wants a new suite."

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"

"Our sofa, chair and footstools where purchased 7years ago and apart from a few dog hairs I haven't brushed off today they still look as good today and are just as comfortable as when we had them. Furniture that's made to to your own requirements whether its extra support needed for a bad back or preference for a slightly taller chair back Is not a problem. The service, knowledge, quality and craftsmanship from all at The Design Sofa can not be beaten."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"It`s nice to get feedback from a customer who has had our furniture for a few years and have had a chance to see how good it is. We can make furniture to fit you and your room, and if you have a bad back or some other medical condition we can make a sofa to help you. Our furniture is not mass produced very quickly like the sofa on the high street, each one is handmade especially for you. When your frame is made your name is put on it at the beginning and our craftsman will then turn it into your sofa or chair. Thank You from all the Team"

"From the day we walked into the shop, the family have been so helpful. The chair and sofa we received is just as we wanted, nothing has been to much trouble, with a Christmas delivery after a delay obtaining materials due to world shortage. Second home visit to fit final order. I cannot recommend this company enough very professional and caring about their furniture.And more than happy to shop with them again."

"After looking for the perfect set of sofas in what seemed like every retail store, and visiting many bespoke manufacturers, we arrived at The Designer Sofa. Taz was fantastic from the start with his knowledge and enthusiasm. We found our perfect sofa style and whereas we thought we knew what material we wanted,, we changed our minds after seeing a sofa in the showroom. As it was a suede type fabric, I was worried that it would not stand up to the crowds that come through our house, Taz gave me a sample to take home to spill anything and everything on it. We did, tea, coffee, red wine, curry ... wiped off, amazing. It was a joy to purchase from Taz, there was never any sales pressure. We love our two new large sofas and are planning for additional orders for chairs, cushions etc for the rest of the house. We won’t go elsewhere. I have recommended the store to friends and family. Thank you again Taz, Zach and the lovely team."
