Abode was brilliant! Great service, not pushy, good product, great price.
My wife and I spent a few days looking around all the furniture shops to find the right sofa.
Most shops were just too desperate for a sale and wouldn’t let us just look.
Abode staff allowed us to feel welcome to browse without the need to push for a sale, the staff were friendly and answered any questions honestly.
I ordered our sofa and paid by card, after I had measured at home later I decided to add an extra section to the modular corner sofa. This was no trouble at all I paid £100 for the extra piece and they added it to my order with no fuss.
It seems that most sofas can be delivered within the week. However the sofa we wanted was not in stock so we had to wait for its delivery.
We didn’t book for installation as I’m quite capable of putting things together.
The delivery was by their own staff so you only have to deal with one organisation, the 2 delivery people carried the sofas in to my front room, where I wanted them, they were friendly and helpful.
Our sofa was a modular corner sofa so came neatly boxed and was easy to put together, we had 4 plastic feet missing from one of the sections, I contacted Abode and they supplied me with the feet again with no drama.
Our Sofa was the Landos Corner sofa which is a modular leather corner sofa.
When I took delivery I noticed that the sofa was lighter than our previous one but also a lot cheaper at just £1100 including the extra section.
The landos is a firm sofa and has a shorter base so that your back is supported without having to slide up on to the seat, it also means that my wife, who’s short, can sit and still have her feet reach the floor! The shorter base makes my front room look a lot bigger than with my old corner sofa as there is more floor space but more seating!
The sofa was the cheapest option of all that we had seen in other shops but we chose it because: it was the right sofa for our needs; we like to support smaller, local businesses; and mainly because the staff were friendly, helpful and not pushy.
