I got 4 bespoke dining room chesterfield chairs made fron Kingsgate Furniture and i can honestly say the chairs are beautiful superb and of the highest quality. I was told by Kingsgate that the chairs would be made and ready for delivery in 4 weeks. I was given a delivery date when i placed my order and true to their word the chairs were delivered on the specified date. The staff were very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful in particular Michael who i had several conversations with. If you are looking for quality and value for money from a friendly professional company do not hesitate
