We ordered 100 chairs from Winscombe Furniture and we are extremely happy with the finished product. It looks great in the church and a very good build quality. The communication throughout the process, from enquiry to delivery, was excellent. I would highly recommend Winscombe Furniture if you are looking to buy chairs for a church setting.

The service from Winscombe and Paul was excellent from
start to finish. All our initial enquiries were dealt with swiftly and professionally, and Paul even visited school with a sample of our shortlisted Chapel Chairs from which we made our final selection. Delivery took place well within the projected delivery window and we are all delighted with the look and quality of the final product. Many thanks. More than happy to recommend.
