Advantages, you can design your own sofa on-line and choose colours etc…read more These sofas arrive on a huge shrink wrapped pallet, the frame is just basically pieces of mdf that lock together a bit like a kids play set Everything has to be assembled by yourself, problem with this being that the instructions are poor and difficult to follow. I'm an experienced craftsman and did not find it easy. These sofas are not cheap mainly due to the many good deals at other "proper" furniture companies such as SCS. This has to be one of the most expensive mistakes we have ever made, almost £560 for a pile of MDF, some lumps of foam and some material to cover it all. Any furniture in our house has to be hardwearing and this has failed miserably, after only 6 months nearly all the back cushions have lost their shape and the base cushions are all lumpy. We have now cut our losses and awaiting delivery of a properly manufactured sofa from SCS.

I've previously hada sofa bed - it has lasted well, and the price was good and delivery all went…read morewell. This time I wanted to add a 2 seater and stool. On the day of delivery I enlisted 2 others to be at home to help with lifting nad assembly - that's a lot of people's time for a no-show. I called Nabru three times just before closing and either got no-one avaialable or we'll get back to you (they didn't). I called the next morning and was told it would definitely be with me that morning (which was going to be much more dificult without the extra help, but at least something) At 1 in the afternoon I called again, then again, then again - each time there was no one available (apparently reception is unable to put calls through to anyone else and has no information, but they understand my situation). Every time I was told someone would call me back and that the driving would ring me an hour before delivery. The company never did return my call. Five minutes before delivery a driver rang me, then he rang again when he thought he couldn't come the direction the satnav was correctly indicating. He was bad-tempered, brusque, behaved as though I was personally forcing him into a job he didn't want to do and dumped the pallet on the road (hardly delivered 'to the door', which is through a gate and tiny courtyard.) We then had to set about dismantling the contents in the road and bringing it in piece by piece. A lovely extra touch after spending two days waiting. We haven't put the sofa together yet, but even if it's perfect - never again.

It is unfortunate that there is a pretty brand new Homesense two doors down as the layouts are…read moredrastically different. While Homesense looks modern and tidy, Dunelm just looks really dated and terribly cluttered. But, if you can get past that then you've come to an Aladdin's cave of homewares. Certainly if I was looking for a new duvet or a pair of curtains, I now know the place to go. The prices were certainly very reasonable and I had to chuckle when I spotted Star Wars: The Force Awakens tissues in a small Star Wars themed area. Insert your own fanboy related joke here.

Dunelm is a great store, with lots of variety of things for your home…read more Having first gone to the new Homesense, it was strikingly obvious that Dunelm is a bit overfilled, cluttered, and dated. However, they do have good prices, and lots of choices. They did have a really small Christmas section though, which was a shame. If I needed something in particular, like new curtains, I'd definitely come here. But just to browse, it's a bit too much.

went to smiths today!!!!!!!!!I had a great experience ,we needed to get some plants for the garden…read moreand we were really sucsessful today.I was really pleased with the experience today.There were thousands of plants in the garden centre,there were a lot in the inside area and an absolute abundance of plants outside.Also all plants were well kept and very watered,actually helped me keep cool in all this heat,they obviously take pride in each and every one of their plants.Also there is so much stock of everything(plants and non-plants).This has really pleased me as I've seen some garden centres which has hardly any plants and they are all neglected.However in this garden centre,they even have Christmas trees in June,but I suppose today(the day I wrote my review)is only 6 months till Christmas Eve!!!!!!!!!But I cannot see why you can't have a Christmas tree in June if you want to.I brought 3 small ones!!!!!!!!!Also I've been to garden centres in Christmas and they haven't had christmas trees.Also they were really well staffed as well,and our cashier was polite and even offered for someone to help us load the car.Also the smiths golf thing right at the back of the garden centre looks great and I'm sure will make a lot of money for the garden centre.Also their drive thru concept to collect soil was good and very well thought out,it's like a McDonald's drive thru but you show you're receipt to staff and then drive on to get the soil.Lovely experience!!!!!!!!

Smiths is a large garden centre just outside Uxbridge. There is a vast choice of greenery for sale…read morein a huge outdoor area, and also an indoor shopping area and cafe (not tried). It offers an extremely comprehensive range of products. Staff in the outside area can be hard to find but there are knowledgeable staff available if you need advice as I did when selecting a fruit tree for my garden. The level of customer service is high, I was surprised to discover that if you buy a heavy bag of fertiliser or compost it will be taken to your car on an electric carrier! So all in all a recommended place to go for garden supplies and products.
