If you want a new sofa in time for xmas '21, my advice would be order it now! In fact if you want a sofa in time for xmas '21 my BEST advice would be to avoid these cowboys completly! 6 MONTHS i have been waiting and still no sofa. Complete joke of a business. Don't get me wrong, they are very polite when they phone to apologise for failing to deliver on their promises, but still they fail!

Shopped at Birkenshaw. Given the right amount of attention. No pressure to purchase from pushy staff. Salesman Tony was really helpful and found the colour and texture of material we were looking for. Delivery date was later than usual due to covid, however this wasn't an issue for us. Delivery guys were lovely, did their job well. This is the second couch we have purchased from Instyle. Had the last one for 15years. Very happy with purchase.

We bought a lovely grey corner sofa from the shop in Birkenshaw. After a week or two it was covered in bobbles. We complained and their expert was sent out to investigate. The guy commented that the issue "wasn't a fault just a characteristic of the material." Brilliant. What we have been forced to do since is use a pilling machine to shave our sofa umpteen times a year. Absolutely ridiculous. Would never go near these cowboys again.
