3 sets of Avitus 3-Seater Sofa - Flax Narrow Herringbone and 2 Treer Coffee Table - Oak / Stone
"I have been looking for a proper sofa set to complete my living room. I'm so glad I found this one from OKA. Their customer service was professional and very helpful in helping me customize the sofa set to my requirements, and best of all the price is really affordable! The items were delivered to my doorstep early in the morning. I was amazed by the quick delivery, but when I opened the box and saw the items in real life, I was shocked. The quality of the sofa and tables are just perfect and I'm so happy. Looking forward to another great shopping experience. "

Conclusion
Reviews indicate OKA commonly delivers a positive in‑store experience: staff are repeatedly described as helpful, displays are praised and many customers report satisfactory product quality. However, several reviews raise concerns about delivery arrangements and additional fees — including high delivery or collection charges and slow or non-responsive delivery partners. If you are buying large or heavy items, confirm delivery fees, service level and pick‑up policies before purchase. Also check voucher expiry and stock policies if you plan to use store credit; ask staff to confirm how backorders and collections are handled.
