Overview & Key Metrics
Our Analysis
Service quality
Most reviews praise helpful store staff and design consultants by name; a minority report issues with installers or delivery handling.
Value for money
A few reviewers note reasonable pricing, while others report paying for high‑cost installations that later showed workmanship problems.
User experience
Many customers describe smooth in‑store appointments, sign‑ups and website resources; a smaller group report frustrating delivery or site announcements.
Product quality
There are isolated positive mentions of product range, but several reports describe damaged deliveries and inadequate installation workmanship.
Communication
Named staff are often described as clear and helpful; however multiple reviews cite poor delivery communication and unhelpful customer relations responses.
Overall experience
Overall impressions skew positive thanks to helpful staff and design support, offset by sporadic delivery and installation complaints.

Conclusion
Reviews show a clear pattern: many customers commend named store staff and design consultants for helpful, detailed service. Recurrent issues centre on delivery partners and a few installation jobs that customers found unsatisfactory. If you plan to buy fitted products or book installation, get written delivery arrangements, installation warranties and inspect goods on arrival. For shopping or design appointments, expect attentive in‑store support but check delivery and installation terms in advance.
