The verdict

3/5Decent enough

A proper Midlands family business that's been going since 1968 — four showrooms across the region stocking a mix of mid-range brands. The staff actually know their stuff, which is more than you can say for half the chain stores. Not glamorous, but reliable and honest. The kind of shop your dad would approve of.
