We're looking to buy a three piece suite. Having looked at reviews of various stores I can find lots of negative reviews but very few positive ones. I suppose many people only write a review if they're not satisfied with their purchase. Has anyone recently bought a sofa/ chairs who can recommend the shop  or the make of furniture?

The thing is people are quick to leave negative reviews when unsatisfied, but are not so quick to leave positive ones.

Personally I wouldn't buy from a 'warehouse' type place, but from a smaller specialist (local to us) furniture shop, who certainly knows his stuff.  We bought our suite there (three seater, two seater, chair and 'pouffe') about fifteen years ago, and apart from one professional clean, it's still looking good.  It hasn't faded, sagged, lost any spring or comfort, and we're more than happy with it.  It was a make the shop owner recommended, not one we'd heard of, and I'd happily buy there again should we need to replace our suite.  

Here's a link for anyone who lives in North or West Yorkshire and is looking to buy a new suite: Wilsden Suite Centre

If it's comfy in store then that would sway me, longevity is something I'm not interested in as decoration time dictates another new suite. Last one a couple of years back came from 'The Range' with two single recliners and a 2 seater recliner, next could be anywhere and anytime the walls need a new lick of paint.

Crikey, Dave....that must work out a bit expensive! surprised

(We don't redecorate all that often either)

You guessed right Ian laughing, neither of us like decorating now even though both of us have more time to do it. This suite could well outlast us wink
