MFI Bedroom Furniture

i have to say, i am not a fan of MFI bedroom furniature. when i moved into my first flat, i ordered a wardrobe, chest of drawers and a bed side table. i was quite happy with the price and it cost me £30 to have the lot delievered which i thought was quite reasonable. the items arived within a few days and we set about putting them together. i have never read such complicated instructions in my life. you expect them to be a bit hard to read but these really were something else. it took 3 of us to work out how to put the items together and then there were too many screws of one type and not enogh of the other. luckily because i had ordered a few items, there did work out ...  Read the complete review

Ah the pleasures of newfound cohabitation: give and take, yours is mine, joint decisions. For me, John Lewis is a one-stop shop. I would happily buy all of my household wares there. For the other half....well maybe it's just asserting his independence, or maybe he really can get the same thing elsewhere for cheaper. So we investigated the goods at MFI and I had to admit they looked alright on the shop floor. In the spirit of compromise, we ordered one wardrobe from my spiritual home, and one from his new find. John Lewis delivered within 2 weeks and on the date and time specified. MFI took six weeks to deliver......and they brought the wrong wardrobe. By the ...  Read the complete review

I'm afraid my experience of MFI fully lives up to their reputation for poor goods and service. My soon-to-be husband and I spent almost £1000 on bedroom furniture in August. This was planned to be our dream bedroom, to last us for years, etc etc. When the furniture finally arrived, we discovered a number of missing and damaged parts. As the furniture was not delivered all at once, and as we assembled it item by item, each discovery of something not right had to be accompanied by a call to the customer disservice helpline. I never waited on hold here for less than 30 minutes, sometimes much longer. At one stage, I asked for a small fixing piece to be ...  Read the complete review

Have you ever had the feeling of complete despair after having spent over 10hours building furniture only to find that you haven't been given either the right parts for something or that something hasn't been drilled etc. That?s what has just happened to me. About a month ago now I went down to MFI Homeworks in Lisburn and purchased some furniture (OK a whole rooms worth of furniture) and decided rather than to waste money on getting them to build it for me, I would do it. At the moment I wish I hadn't. Well last Sunday was delivery day and no sooner had they delivered the packages, than me and my dad were in middle of trying to put them up. ...  Read the complete review

When most people think of the furniture store MFI, they tend to think of the store in a negative way. I’m sure that this has a lot to do with people of my age ( I’m 33!!) remembering all the times the store was featured on programmes such as “That’s Life” because of their misleading advertising and poor customer service department. So I thought I would share with you my experience of MFI. As a few of you may know, I’m currently pregnant with my first child. As a result of this, we have had to give up our music room and transform it into a nursery. Money is a big issue at the moment for us, and whilst we want the room to look ...  Read the complete review
