Re: DFS Sofa Repair
I would have to disagree. Some time ago we bought a suite from DFS. The price was fair and we got an interest free deal. It is of a hard wearing fabric type,not leather. We still have it and it is good as new and shows very little wear. Leather suites might be a different issue. Perhaps if people took more responsibility for the care and use of their purchases,they might last a little longer? for example, dont let your kids or mutt trampoline or soil them..

Good to hear this! We're expecting delivery of our new fabric sofa within the next couple of weeks!
Have you paid yours all off? I ask only because we've got the interest-free deal, but don't LIKE having amounts outstanding, so plan on paying the whole thing off in one go. They told us it would be faster (and less paperwork) for us to just go to the branch where we bought it and pay it off with a debit card. Were you told the same thing?
If our sofa gets gets damaged due to improper treatment.. I'm blaming society.

Re: DFS Sofa Repair
We bought our first suite from DFS in Bury st Edmunds and it lasted for 12 years before we got a new one from DFS in Cambridge. Cost £1600 in leather and its the most comfortable suite we`ve ever had.
This is the one we bought. http://www.dfs.co.uk/sofas/leather/zione/159/2113/18
I paid for it via a debit card. the finance is only an option.
Big  to DFS in my book. Quality.

Yes,it was paid off years ago and the suite is still here and perfectly serviceable. We just let the 0% interest deal role on...

Re: DFS Sofa Repair

We got the half-price deal, too. We took it on finance, because we weren't sure if hubby's company would consider that a 'relocation expense' and reimburse us for it, and the sale ended the next day! Granted, the next "half-price sale" rolled around a month later, but after seeing the kind of things other stores were selling for the same amount of money, we were happy to go with DFS. (At some other stores, the floor model wasn't able to stand up to the wear and tear of potential customers trying out the sofas!)
Choccy is a popular colour! We got the manual double reclining one like this but in chocolate. They had a lovely bright green leather sofa, but 1) my 2 kitties have claws and 2) am I really going to want to look at that green for the next 10 years?! lol
