I think the thing with furniture stores is that there is never one which covers all your needs…read more There's always something that seems not quite right that you need to go somewhere else for. So it is with Habitat. I like a lot of their furniture, but their lighting doesn't do it for me, for example. I like their cutlery, but I'm less keen on their crockery. And so on. This is quite a nice Habitat store, laid out attractively over two floors, on the King's Road near Chelsea Town Hall. The staff are generally helpful, they have a nice range of accessories to complement the furniture, and they have regular, good sales. The one major item I did buy from Habitat was my dining table. Although it is "partially self-essembly", it is still a lovely solid piece of furniture and, unusually, opens out on the long side to form a square, which seats eight. It's great for working on, too. So spot on in design terms for me. I was a little nervous about home delivery - my flat is 78 stairs up, with no lift - but the delivery staff were cheerful and came exactly when they said they would, waited for me to check everything was as it should be, and that there was no damage, and then took away the packaging. That is what I regard as good service.

I never gave a bad review! But Habitat on-line well deserves it!…read more If I could I would NOT give one star! I bought my product (plate sets) on-line. I was told it would take 2-3 days to get my order delivered..after 6 days my order hadn't arrived. Called customer services as I was expecting visitors in some days time and absolutely needed these plates!! I was told the order went to the wrong place but would be with me on time for when I needed it. Plates arrived over a week later (No plates for visitors). The box was ripped (no "fragile" label) and plates were broken. I complained and was offered a £10 voucher to spend in their own store?! as a "goodwill" gesture from habitat?! I asked to return and get a refund after such a poor service. I was home on expected time of collection. No one knocked my door and I received an email saying collection failed because no one was home?! (NO note was left on my doorstep either!) I called habitat saying that they were not at my place! I asked if they could contact the driver and I was told they could not contact the driver?! Drivers have no phone number?! This is the worse service I have ever came across with.. it is very disappointing, especially when you pay the extra money for the quality!

One of Earlsfield's larger furniture stores, the Furniture City showroom offers mostly beds and…read morebedroom units, as well as a few other home furniture items. On request a full catalogue can be seen, so if something is not in store it can be ordered. The staff are friendly and courteous, but beware: even the cheapest options are 'orthopaedic' and 'doctor-approved', so you will need to research exactly what you need in a bed before buying. And the product range is impressive: there are the cheapest options which extend to top-end designer variants. The latest in body-absorbing mattresses and sleek bedroom unit designs litter some parts of the shop floor like a couple of Ferraris in a middle class parking lot. Prices are pretty good as well: check back as there are always specials on the go depending on what piece of furniture you are looking for that day.

The mattresses are of a high quality and beautiful made. Thank you IIfan.

How have I not reviewed this place yet? When in need of some furniture of random crap for the…read morehouse, this was my go-to place. Now I'm moving back into the area, once again it's a haven of everything old, cheap and totally not antique. I while ago I bought a really old heavy oak table here. It was covered in graffiti but with a little bit of sanding and a lick of paint, it's now a piece in my room that people comment on. It makes me even happier that you can haggle for prices, if you can understand the very strong Irish accents going on that is. I did struggle but eventually, we cut a deal and for £35 I could have the table delivered. They have books, vinyl, vhs, laps, wardrobes, chairs, dining sets. Every weekend it's something different so get there early if you want to have the best pick of stuff. Bring cash, no your spending limit and don't pay more than a tenner for delivery.

Don't let the haphazard pavement display, the rude staff or questionable furniture fool you: this…read moreis a furniture store. Barely. Not much indication is given as to what is new and what is second hand, or where the staff are located should you have a question. After raising your voice a couple of times, a staff member seems to just appear from somewhere near the back, but in my experience, this is not necessarily a mutually beneficial undertaking. Everyone has been to a house where it seems that not one piece of furniture matches in design. I think this may well be the product of stores such as this. Which is not all bad for some people, I mean, Britney Spears has mismatched furniture right? Getting the right furniture is probably very important: however if you're in a real hurry, this furniture store might just be a suitable port of call.

Me: "Yes, I'm here to write that Yelp review and I'll need several pieces of your furniture for, uh, long-term testing." That's the conversation that played in my head because the only way I'll be having any of this super-cool stuff is in my dreams. Conran sells amazingly high quality designer furniture and housewares. While most of it is very functional, some of it is... designer and therefore is very nice to look at but maybe not as functional. On the minus side, the prices are all perfectly displayed.

Shout out to Megan who gave us some great service. Went there during the sale and bought 4 pieces…read moreof Balmoral furniture (fancy!). Unfortunately one piece, the single bookcase had just been discontinued and we weren't able to order it. Megan then offered the store model as an ex display piece and seeing as I wanted two, called round all of the London stores looking for another one. Unfortunately (again!) one couldn't be found so she took us round the entire range until we found a suitable replacement. We also bought another store piece and completed the order. I had everything finally delivered yesterday and delivery was also good, the Laura Ashley people have me an expected time a couple of days in advance, called beforehand and delivered the ones from warehouse without issue. The independent delivery guy, Desmond, recommended by the store also delivered early. I felt really bad as I live on the fourth floor and one of his pieces didn't fit in the lift, he'd already told me that if this was the case there would be an extra fee, but the speed and professionalism he did it in meant that I had no problem in doing so. I'll definitely check out Laura Ashley again the next time I'm looking for furniture!
