Garden Furniture

Advantages: Comfort and style
Disadvantages: May not stock them in bnq anymore!

...I like to have stylish furniture, I bought this for my dads house in cyprus and it looks fabolous in the summer, we even use it in the house during the rest of the year. Not only does it look good but it also brings extremely good comfort, the cushions have special foam in them which has been designed to ensure maximum comfort. The cane used is of excellent quality, selected and shaped to ensure the best standard of product possible. It is very easy to assembly, with clear instructions given, so anybody can do it! I found mine at bnq for £299. However i am unsure if they still stock them but i have seen many available on ebay, offers varying. They really are a pleasure to sit/lay on and enjoy the sun or even have them inside the house. Would really reccomend them to anybody wishing to purchase a value for money...

Review of Jacobs, Young & Westbury Cane Garden Furniture

What next? candy canes

Advantages: cheap attractive
Disadvantages: sticky

...What next Candy canes. Red, green and white twisted canes of sugar sweets. These attractive canes come in a pack of twelve They are positioned in a red box each cane weighs 12g made up of sugar, glucose, syrup, flavourings and lots of e colours The cardboard box has some gift tags printed on the back these can be cut out and put on the candy cane I bought these sweets to give as little gifts for Christmas stocking fillers. I sellotaped some across wrapped parcels. I always give my dad a sock with a few nuts an orange a few choc coins and a few novelties so I popped one in the sock. I didn’t , but I think they would look quite attractive on a Christmas tree . They could also be used as place name markers at a children’s party they add a bit of colour and interest I had a broken cane they are fairly...

Gorgeous dolls house furniture!

Advantages: Well made, safe, robust
Disadvantages: None that I can see

...My niece has a beautiful dolls house called the Marlborough Dolls House which is a John Crane Pintoy product ? in fact I wrote a review about it some time ago. There are various sets of furniture available to fit in this, or indeed any other, dolls house including bathroom, living room, kitchen, nursery and bedroom furniture. Earlier this year she received the set of living room furniture which she loves playing with and it is so cute I just had to tell you about it! Since I had no idea how much it cost I have just searched via Google and found the set ranging from £14.99 at Mail Order Express, to £13.95 at Amazon, down to just £12 at www.kidsrooms.co.uk where they also stock furniture for all the other rooms too! Incidentally the pictures of the items on this website are excellent and can be enlarged so that you can...

DFS Furniture

Advantages: Good quality, nice looking sofas
Disadvantages: Take forever to arrive, go somewhere smaller and you can take your suite away

..., which isn't guaranteed! The seat backs and arm cushions are attached to the sofa with zips, and one seat-back zip has broken just from our sitting against it! Perhaps not worth the money after all. I now think you're better off going into a less well known, smaller furniture retailer and buying a suite for about £500. It probably won't be ruined much before a DFS suite and it's not so gutting to have to replace!...

Review of DFS Furniture Store (Shop)

A good furniture store

Advantages: Good range - reasonable prices - good staff
Disadvantages: Delivery not included

...DFS is a furniture shop that sells mainly sofas and armchairs as well as some additional accompanying furniture. The majority of their range is produced in high quality fabrics and leathers and appears to be very well made. We have just purchased our new sofa from there after looking for many weeks for the right "deal". Many of the furniture shops offered some great ranges and great prices but did not match our requirements exactly. Eventually we found DFS offering the ideal sofa and at half price. What we liked about DFS was the lack of "Hard Sell" tactics. There were plenty of sales staff around but none were hassling us to see if they could help. They made themselves obvious enough for us to ask if we needed assistance. The layout of their stores is both logical and functional. Nothing is too cluttered and the suites are layed out...

Dfs Furniture Store

Advantages: Reasonable prices nice people
Disadvantages: Nish so far

...Now that my son is has grown past playing with plasticine and slopping food everywhere into playing with girls and slopping beer everywhere, and my dog is too old and fat to jump on the furniture, it is with a certain sense of irony that I regard my latest purchase in the suite department. Why, oh why, oh why, oh w.........you get the idea, did I never, in the years during which the choice would have made my life easier, choose a leather sofa? At the beginning of last year, when my suite looked as if it had been used for practice scrums by the New Zealand All Blacks, those nice people at DFS had yet another sale! I allowed my brother to accompany me to the Dfs store in Carlisle because he loves shopping with me and some of my immaculate taste may one day rub off on him. I have bought suites from Dfs on two previous occasions because...

White, Sherbourne furniture - not wardrobes

Advantages: Made to fit
Disadvantages: No measurements on initial plan, designer didn't give full options of various height/depth/widths.

...wardrobes. Lots of flexibility regarding height, width and depth but designer tends to draw what THEY like, where THEY want it, so be ASSERTIVE and ask loads of questions about alternatives/options/measurements/positioning. Initially, we nearly ended up with low level bedside cabinets, hadn't initially been told we could have more suitable mid level - all because designer drew what SHE likes!! Also had to absolutely INSIST she move kneehole dresser to where I wanted it as opposed to where she wanted to put to be "symetrical" - who cares, it's MY bedroom. She chose 500mm deep dresser top, same as existing for "more floor space" (as fitted butting right up to wall as opposed to Schreiber self assembly which had 5" gap behind it - because of previous rad position, which would be moved for Sharps furniture, thus closing that gap...

What a Polish -Tesco Value Furniture Polish

Advantages: It does the job just as well as more expensive ones
Disadvantages: none

...I have quite a lot furniture which is made of wood so I do go through a lot of polish so when I discovered Tesco Value Furniture Polish I thought I just give it ago and it only costs around 33p which I would say amazing. So off I went with the polish in one hand and the duster in the other and started to use it on my Dining room table. It is so easy to use and so I sprayed a little on the table and I soon found that it came up with a lovely shine and the dust just disappeared. I found the smell not as strong and overpowering like other brands of polish and that is a bonus for me as often I find I can get knocked out the the fragrances of many other furniture polishes The design of the aerosal is the usual colour scheme of blue,red and white and it holds 330ml. There are warning notice on the can saying this product is very...

Review of Tesco value furniture polish

Nice furniture, slow delivery

Advantages: Solid wood furniture at budget prices
Disadvantages: Long delivery time

...I bought a solid mahogany bookcase from this site back in early july. It has just been delivered in late september, though the site did state that delivery could take up to 16 weeks on this item. I did have some concerns due to a few reviews where quality was an issue. Now I have the product I have to say that it does look very nice. It is very solid and has nice lines, and it was shipped mostly assembled so I just had to slot the shelves in. Looking closely at this product it is clear that it is not constructed of 'furniture grade' wood - there are natural defects in the wood in just a few places, and these have been sloppily filled with some generic white filler before the item has been stained - generally in non-prominent places, though there is one on the front face of the lowest shelf that I notice at least! One corner of the case...

Review of OakFurnitureLand.co.uk

Oak furniture delight

Advantages: Measurements, customer service, quality, speed, honest, communication...
Disadvantages: You just keep buying more stuff from them!

...The service I've received ever since enquiring with your site has been nothing short of exemplary. I had some questions on delivery with my last order (around £400 I think) which were answered by one of your staff calling me! Not the other way round! The furniture is perfect, and delivered without fuss and at my convenience. I recommended you to a friend of mine, who is looking at purchasing from you before the end of January and I have personally just placed another order for a further piece of furniture to complete my living room. I actually tried to convince myself to put off the purchase for a few months but I have to say it really was the exemplary service at all times and exceptional quality of the furniture which convinced me to bite the bullet and order again so soon after the last order. Well done, it is refreshing to deal...
