Unfortunately I was delivered a table and chairs but the chairs that arrived were the wrong colour and dont match the table like the ones I ordered! They are a completely different colour. So, I rang up and asked if I could have the grey ones I need from the store (they are literally sitting in there!) instead to go with the grey table I ordered. I was told this was out of the question and I will need to wait until the grey chairs arrive from abroad. I ordered this table and chairs for Christmas and so I now have an unmatching pair. I have just been told that this is human error which

We visited Hatters on Sunday out of desperation, as a friend had recommended this store, they had purchased furniture there and were really pleased. We had ordered a new suite at another store 7 months ago and have been let down with delivery 5 times with no notice, leaving us sitting on fishing chairs for the last 3 months, and no end in sight. My wife is 70 years old and suffers with chronic Fibromyalgia, so you can imagine how let down we felt by this other store. I won't say who they are because it would embarrass Oak Furnitureland!! So I have now cancelled that order. Just waiting for a refund

I have tried several of the mattresses available on line promising wonderful things but I just couldn't get on with them. Decided to do the traditional thing for mattress shopping by going to the shop and lying on them! The lady in Hatters was fantastic. She gave us time to wander then helped us find exactly what I was looking for in a mattress for my bed frame, that suited me by trying them out, a little bit softer, a bit more supportive, etc a real Goldilocks experience! The chosen mattress was a good mid range price but as it happened the bed frame was on clearance so I got a whole new bed

These guys have been around for years and years and the customer service has always been amazing!! I recently purchased a new bedroom suite and can't thank the professional ladies in the bedding department enough. 5 star service.
