Thank you Dominika
We had looked online ahead of our visit to the St Albans store so we had a fairly good idea of what we’d like - Dominika was super helpful in advising on the model we were interested in, she struck a great balance between offering options without being pushy and leaving us lots of time to make up our minds. A great experience, thank you.

Hi Richard,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m so pleased to hear that our team made you feel welcome and that your visit led to a lovely purchase.
I’m really sorry to hear that one of the complimentary mugs cracked the first time you used it that’s certainly not what we’d want for you. If you’d like, we’d be more than happy to arrange a replacement for you, I will be in touch to confirm this for you.
Thanks again for your kind words about our staff, I’ll be sure to share your feedback with them. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Just desperate for help … and my sofa
Much like others on here right now, it seems like there is a very concerning issue with Loaf right now. How can a ‘system upgrade’ reduce a store of this size and reputation to this horrendous situation and dismal service where as a customer who bought their sofa in January and knows it is with Wincanton to deliver, cannot indeed get their sofa delivered, despite calling and calling and emailing for 3.5 weeks solid and I am still getting absolutely nowhere further than when I started!! I have spoke to at least five different people including at ‘head office’, however not one of them can help or do anything of value. It’s the same script, ‘sorry to hear your frustration, I’ll pass it on to the team to give you an urgent call back’. And then …. No call back. At this point I have been paying £10 per week to store it! I’m being charged whilst I wait and wait and getting fobbed of my equally sounding frustrated staff members.
My order number is SO901140. I never leave reviews like this but feel I’ve been given no other option at this point. It’s hard not to worry about what’s really going on at Loaf, having spent £4000 with you 8 months ago. As a desperate customer, PLEASE can someone help me!!!!!!!!!

Hi Teresa / Megan,
It was good to talk to you just now. I'm so sorry we've been unable to get this order out to you faster, the length of the storage time has caused an issue on our system internally, but not to worry - we'll get this order out to you asap with a specialist delivery service next week as promised.
If you need anything else in the meantime, please don't hesitate to let me know. And don't worry, we'll get this all sorted for you.
Kind Regards,
Peter.
Avoid!
Customer service is unbelievably bad, and when I say unbelievable, I mean truly unbelievable for a so-called premium brand.
I ordered a new sofa on 10th August from the St Albans store (paid in full) with an estimated delivery date of the end of September. A week later, I emailed customer service to change the sofa colour, no reply. So then called customer service (on hold for 30 minutes before getting an answer), as you cannot call loaf stores, to change the colour of the sofa, the change was made, and this extended my estimated delivery date by a week.
A week later, I received a reply to my old email, saying the change of colour could not be made. I replied to this email with a screenshot of my confirmation that the change had been made, and to ask for double confirmation this had been done, and no reply.
I called customer service again a week later to advise them of the email exchanges, and they had no idea why someone at loaf emailed me to say the change couldn’t be made, and said the change had been made, but my delivery date has now been pushed to mid October. I of course was not happy with this, so asked to speak to a manager to understand why my order has been delayed again, and was told no manager was available to speak, and that they would call me. This was two weeks ago, and I have had no call.
I have been emailing back and forth to ask for an update and a refund until delivery (as loaf can now not tell me a delivery date) and have needed to chase each email I send two or three times before receiving a generic reply not answering any of my questions.
The final straw was today, when I called customer service (as you cannot call the stores) and was told there is no manager to speak to, and when I politely asked the customer service agent what they could help me with, they hung up on me.
I paid in full over a month ago for a very expensive sofa, and as of today have had no response and have no delivery date. Terrible!!

Hi Zak,
Thanks for getting in touch, please accept my apologies. Having looked into this I can see our communication should have been clearer when you chose a new fabric in Mid August.
I've spoken with our production team, and can confirm that the making of your sofa is fully on track and on time and will ready at the start of October. By the end of next week you'll receive a booking link from our delivery partner to choose your delivery date.
One of my team will give you a call now, to go over any other questions you may have.
Kind Regards

Excellent customer experience
Having ordered some swatches online we decided we needed to visit a loaf ‘shack’ to confirm our thoughts and have a sit on our potential sofa purchase. On arrival Ellen took us under her wing and helped us work through our colour options and what potential contrasting cushions would look like. Having settled on our selections we rushed off to look at some rugs elsewhere(sorry) and then placed our final order for our new sofa and cushions when we got home. Visiting St.Albans was a huge plus and Ellen is to be congratulated for how she walked us through things.

Cushions loose the shape quickly
We brought a new sofa and we were really excited as it was a big investment to buy a beautiful loaf sofa.
After a few weeks we noticed the back cushions were loosing there shape. Each day this half d no matter how much we plumped them.
We complained and they sent a sofa tecnition to plump the cousins by basing them with his heads (exactly what we were doing every day) they reported there was nothing wrong with the sofa. We complained again and they refuse to listen to us.
Terrible customer service.
I would not recommend buying a load sofa unless you like miss shaped cushions.
I am happy to supply photos to anyone as proof

Hi Nathan,
Thank you for reaching out to us and for taking the time to leave us a review.
I'm so sorry that your sofa is not comfortable and has not matched expectations. I can see that an independent technician from Emmiera attended your property and assessed the sofa for manufacturing faults. We rely on technicians reports to advise us of the best course of action when our customers experience issues with the items they have received. On this occasion the technicians have advised us that there is no manufacturing fault present in your sofa; my apologies.
Since there is no physical fault with the sofa or its seat inserts, there is very little we can offer you that might improve your experience - I'm so sorry about this.
If you believe this is an error, then I encourage you to contact us again at sos@loaf.com and we can look into the situation further.
Kind Regards,
Peter.
Helpful and patient
Was advised by a helpful, knowledgable member of staff. Patient and not pushy at all. Overall there was a great balance between having staff available to answer questions but not feeling monitored or pressured by sales staff. Really helped with the purchase.

As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a member of staff who was helpful and knowledgeable about the products we were interested in. She was attentive to what we needed, offering helpful advice and guidance that we would have missed if we had not come into the shop. She gave us time to look around and was available when we needed to ask questions. We did not feel any pressure to buy which was refreshing. She was efficient when organising the order which made it very easy to purchase our sofa when we got home.

I went into the St Albans branch which is always so friendly, clean and welcoming. I was enjoying browsing but needed a little advice and a lady was so helpful. Really wish I could remember her name! It was so not pushy, just informative, great advice and I left knowing I’d bought the right sofa for me. Loaf just get everything right - amazing sofas and brilliant service
