giggirl Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I'm getting my new sofa here:http://www.sofa.com/A Stella if anyone is interested.I went down to the warehouse a couple of Sundays ago for a recce to check out the quality and such. Nice people and comfy sofas and the place was packed out. Given it has no passing traffic so it's a destination shop only, I was impressed to find it so full.

Husker Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Brought from both M&S and DFS in the past. I'd recommend both. Were only replaced because we moved or fancied a change - nothing to do with wear or quality.

Jeremy Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 We have an M&S sofa, it's very comfy and the construction is solid. The designs aren't exactly cutting edge, but there's a decent selection of styles and fabrics. The delivery men were very good too, they managed to get it in through the front sash window!I used to have a crappy one from DSF/Courts/Land Of Leather/whatever, the carcass was made from chipboard held together with glue and staples. The M&S one has a solid wood frame and seems very sturdy. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/22231-new-sofa/#findComment-526687 Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiepanda Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I have bought all my sofas / armchairs from sofa workshop. They sometimes have very generous sales - my sofas I got on buy one get one free, the quality is good and they have a fair range of price points so there's something for most people. The online range is usually cheaper (you get a more limited choice of fabrics) though they usually have those models in the shop so you can see them in the flesh (so to speak!). I need to know a sofa is comfy before buying and ended up buying something completely different to what I was planning last time round once I'd tested a few. Looking at the prices, it would probably still be top end of your budget but I still think they are pretty good value for money.http://www.sofaworkshop.com/sofas/buy-onlineThe branch on Tottenham Court Road were helpful when I was last buying armchairs.

Peckham native Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Highly recommend Sofas and StuffWent to their Parsons Green showroom and they were very helpful. A huge range of sofas on display. Got 10% off my order and delivery in a month. Delivery men were great, took all the packaging away and made sure the sofa and chair were exactly where I wanted them Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/22231-new-sofa/#findComment-526985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
