Buying upholstered furniture


Delivery

When buying upholstery, take a tape measure to check that you can get the furniture into the desired room and that it will fit the intended location.

Some retailers offer a ‘trial delivery’ service whereby they can check whether the furniture will fit before a firm delivery is placed.

When your furniture arrives at your home, check carefully that it is ‘as ordered’ and fault-free. Damage and defects should be reported as soon as possible so that the matter can be resolved swiftly and satisfactorily.
