BEFORE YOU PLACE AN ORDER:
If you decide you would like to place an order with The Online Sofa Shop by speaking to one of our sales advisors, please have the following information ready as it will help us process your order, however, we will be delighted to answer any queries you may have. Here are some of the most common questions for you to consider:
- Can access be gained easily for the furniture to be delivered? – are the doors wide enough, are there any awkward stairs, lift or passageways?
- Will the furniture fit in the room?
- Which range are you interested in?
- Which items from the range do you want to order? Please note that if you are thinking of buying extra items such as a footstool or chair at a later date, there may be a slight colour shade variance. It is therefore best to order all the furniture you require at the same time.
- What colour would you like the furniture in?
- How would you like to pay for the furniture?

YOUR GUARANTEE:
At The Online Sofa Shop, we are so confident in the quality of our furniture that we offer 12 month manufacturing warranty. The guarantee starts from the date of delivery and offers cover against manufacturing defects on the construction of the frame and frame springs. There are some things that aren’t covered by your guarantee. For example, deliberate damage - like treating it roughly or not using the right products to maintain it. It also doesn’t cover your sofa for use in a workplace or business - only for use in your home. And, don’t forget your warranty only belongs to you. So if you sell or give away your sofa, the guarantee ends.
