Quick delivery and the stools are great, just what we wanted

Great product, speedy delivery and superb after sales service. Thanks.

Can’t fault anything. Barstool is easy to put together, great quality and comfortable. It was delivered in good time and I would buy another.

Great stools at a great price and delivered quickly.

Fast delivery. Good quality. Would highly recommend.

Great product, excellent quality and good price! We love our new stools!!

I cannot recommend Barstools.co.uk. Of eight chairs purchased (and one replacement), 6 of 9 had issues.

Items were shipped in flimsy cardboard packaging which arrived buckled and some even open. Damage sustained would have been avoidable with proper packaging.

Fire resistance badge was missing, alongside manufacturing errors (e.g. missing upholstery), shipping damage (torn fabric on chair corners exposing internal padding), and missing screws to attach the legs. These issues persisted on two consecutive orders. For high value items, a surprising lack of care went into the packaging and shipping process.

In addition to the product issues, we were told after purchase that our item was not in stock and it would be 16 weeks to ship (whilst in stock online), only for the correct item to be "found" a couple of hours later and shipped.

My experience does not appear to align with the other reviews, but it was terrible, and I have no confidence a full set of chairs would be delivered over any number of attempts.

Edit: it's important to recognise customer service have put in effort to make this right. The representative I spoke to on the phone was very polite and supported organising the return for these items after offering to replace them again, or switch to a different design. Unfortunately due to the shipping practices I cannot see a way forward that isn't to return and refund these items in full. A shame, as they would have been lovely chairs.

Edit 2: two weeks on from the chairs returning to Barstools.co.uk, no refund has been received. This now exceeds the refund timescales given by Barstools.co.uk themselves, as per their refund policy. Despite the friendly customer service, I advise potential customers to consider alternatives.

Edit 3: I have now received a refund, after another call to customer support.

Edit 4: In order to retain this review, I had to submit order details and personal details or it would be removed. I have now done so.

First time ordering and I’m really impressed. I’ve purchased an item without realising that it was a ‘pre order’ and I have contacted customer services to cancel/refund the item. From most retailers, you’d normally expect an email confirming that the refund is processed and sums would reach the account within 5 working days. However, Amanda and Molly, who assisted me on this, went beyond expectations and made me feel a valuable customer which rarely happens on nowadays. They are great negotiator, professionally but friendly still, and I ended up a retained customer by purchasing a substitute item for next day delivery. I certainly will be retuning to barstools in the future and will not hesitate to recommend them to friends & family. Thanks again

Avoid at all costs. I placed an order and then received an email to say the item wasn't in stock and that I'd have to wait 6 weeks. Instead of automatically cancelling my order and refunding me they were all too happy to process my payment. I then had to request a refund and now nearly two weeks later I'm still yet to receive it.

The item in question is still showing as in stock on their website. I'm fairly certain this is illegal. If not, it's incredibly shady practice.

The stools arrived quickly and were well packaged. Easy to assemble and are lighter than our previous bar stools so are easier to move around. They fitted better than expected in the space and my one recommendation to barstools.co.uk is to provide more detailed measurements as this helps when customers have a specific location where they need to fit.

After some research I decided to buy this bar chair, as I liked the design, colour and features such as the 360 swivel, and long range of height adjustment. I decided to go for the real leather version as I felt it would be more hard wearing.

I recieved the chair promptly, and when assembled, was very confortable, the leather felt nice and it functions well. But I was dissapointed as there was a small damage to the leather on the underside, and some small dents on the base. They I think may have occurred during storage or packing. Additionally whoever did the finishing on my chair didn't properly grind down some of the welds in the footrest area, and appeared to use too wide an abrasive head to finish the brushed steel effect, so there are circular scratches where it should have a horizontal brush with, not against the grain of the metal. I was now worried I was going to have an annoying process ahead of me.

This may not sound so great at first but I contacted them, and first dealt with Tracy who was very polite and understanding. She requested pics which I provided. I also dealt with Amanda at customer services who was also very nice indeed. I was then offered a partial refund and keep it, or to send it back at their expense, as it was damaged on arrival. I chose to return it for a replacement and wanted to confirm the details and what prep they required of me.

A few hours later I recieved notification that my replacement chair had been dispatched before I'd even returned the first one. Impressive, but I read on, and the message informed me that I need not return the first chair! I was blown away to be honest.

The second chair is much better. The leather is fine, and the welds are better finished. The base has a few very minor imperfections which are acceptable. The stem and outward facing part of the footrest is fine. There is some scratching against the metal grain in some of the corners where the welds have been cleaned up, but not nearly to the extent of the first chair in number and severity. Also it's in a more obscure area so not obvious. My thoughts are on a non-bespoke chair like this, is you'll never get one that is 100% perfect if you're really really strict. I will say though that the actual seat must be pretty much perfect, you don't want usage to worsen the problem.

Considering the service I have recieved, I couldn't in any conscience extend the issue, and they have promised to pass my feedback to the relevant people to improve further, and in this case I believe them.

As for the company, I certainly recommend them. I would buy from them again without hesitation. Their staff are lovely and you don't get the feeling like many companies that they just don't care. They appear customer focused, and as having been a retail manager in the past, find this the most important aspect of running a business. It takes many good customer experiences to cancel out one bad one in people's minds.

Thanks again Tracy and Amanda, and Barstools.co.uk :)

Well the stools are great but ours arrived scratched and we had to wait over 2 months for a part refund.

Love our new Osprey bar stools. They are very comfortable and stylish. We had a problem with a couple and they were replaced straight away no issue. I would use company again.

Speedy delivery and quality of seats was good for the amount we paid for them. Unfortunately one of the chairs has been damaged already. Not the companies fault.

The product offered (Rocco) is of excellent quality & reasonably priced. Assembly was straightforward & I am delighted with how they look in my kitchen. Would'nt hesitate to recommend Bar Stools to family & friends.

Excellent service and excellent product, very easy to use site, would highly recommend.

Great Macy bar stools. Compact. Bought 4 of them in the sale. Next day delivery. Easy to put together with clear instructions. Lightweight to move about. Good footrest. The back is low which is what we wanted but if you want a higher backrest then another stool would suit you better.

I was sceptical that they would meet the 3day delivery offered. I purchased 4 stools ,they got alot of admiration from the younger trendier friends and family so I purchased 2 more. Now we all eat at the island and the table is for the moment redundant. Real quality and style.

The very quick delivery was excellent, ordered the stools and arrived within 2 days. Great selection of stools and information on the site about each stool so you could get the measurements especially if you were very specific to a certain size and height. Would definitely use again and higher recommended. Quality is to a very high standard and definitely built to last.
