Manufacturing and origin

According to the company's information, beds and some of the sofas are handmade in the UK. The rest of the sofa range is designed in the UK and produced to those designs by specialist manufacturers in Europe and Asia with whom the company has worked for years. Each product page states the origin of each piece. All pieces come with a five-year structural guarantee.

Buying, payment and delivery

The store allows you to order free fabric samples before buying. Payment can be split into three interest-free instalments via Klarna or Clearpay, with terms applicable to over-18s and subject to approval. Delivery is free across most of mainland UK; some remote areas, such as the Scottish Highlands and islands, may involve longer timeframes or a surcharge. Assembly is offered as an optional paid service. Most orders are delivered within 7 to 15 days; in-stock items often arrive sooner, while made-to-order pieces use the full window. The company has a selection of in-stock products with delivery in 3 to 5 working days.
