"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"

"What a brilliant team that work with Taz, I chose a highly patterned fabric for a long curved sofa and they nailed the task. I have a beautiful bespoke sofa and footstool that could not have been created anywhere better than by The Designer Sofa Co. Hats off to everyone who was involved in the build we are delighted with the result. Thank you so much."

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you so much to you too. This is what we try for on every order. We are not some off-the-shelf chain store, where you are just a number that does not matter. We know all our customers by name and you can talk to the same people when you need us. We care about you and your order, so only the best will do for you. Taz and the Team"

"I have nothing but praise for Taz and his team. They more than fulfilled my expectations with an entirely new take on a chaise longue. Taz developed the design and it all worked, with a well constructed frame and beautifully upholstered. I can certainly recommend this business if you want to own something that lasts."

"A big thank you to Taz,Zak,Haris and their team for producing and delivering an excellent sofa.The support and advice available was first class, friendly and importantly, honest. It was good to be able to meet the team who make the sofas and see the quality of components used in the manufacture of my sofa. Zak went the extra mile in helping with the choice of fabric (not easy as the selection on offer is phenomenal). the result is that I have a stunning and high quality sofa."

JUSTINE LEAPER (10th October 2018)
"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"

Brian & Margaret Laing (19th June 2019)
"A great thank you to Taz and his team for our lovely well made chairs, due to past disappointments in purchasing furniture we decided to go direct to a manufacturer and we found the best in The Designer sofa, Long Eaton. Our journey Took two hours and was well worth it, so we would like to say thank you once again for the kindness we experienced. Brian and Margaret"

Response from The Designer Sofa

"Thank you, Brian & Margaret. We find people are prepared to travel 200, 300 miles and more when it comes to getting good quality sofas and chairs with nice friendly helpful, none pushy staff. I know you had two lots of furniture from other companies and have not been happy, but I hear this story all the time over the past few years. People need to start looking at more than the price. One good question to ask is what springs do you use in the furniture? If you are serious about comfortable furniture that will stay Comfortable for many years to come you need a mesh-topped coil spring unit. Thank you again for taking the trouble to let me know your thoughts on The Designer Sofa. Ian & the Team"
