Store service okay. After sale, delivery and customer complaints terrible.
VIC, South WharfKew dining table and chairs was purchased from southwharf store. Great sales staff, very helpful. Waited 4 weeks for delivery stock had to ordered. When delivered a chair leg was snapped in half (in transit?). The chair was left with me and the drivers said it happens all the time and that the store would be in touch to replace shortly. This never happened. I called the store a couple weeks later to ask what was happening and was told that 'the girls in the office' weren't back yet and would be in touch. I was asked to email the store photos of

After which I called the store again and was told they don't manage these issues and gave me a phone number for complaints. I subsequently called them who said there was no record from the drivers OR the store about the issue and 'were really sorry'. I was then informed to forward the previous email trail, which I did and they would arrange a replacement. I asked for this in writing which I have since received. On the call I was also told that I wouldn't get a new chair (due to no stock) until end of march. This makes it 4 months between purchase and the proper product in my home (if it is actually delivered in march). Not a great experience with obvious process and quality holes in the chain.

Unreliable products and deplorable customer service
VIC, South WharfPurchased a TV Unit, bookshelf and bed-frame from Focusonfurniture in November 2015 and received the furniture in December 2015. Within a day we realised the bed-frame wasn't assembled properly and there was a screw sticking out of it and the bookshelf was uneven and was very wobbly. Contacted focuson and they sent someone over to repair it (they just put felt under the bookshelf). 5 months later, in May 2016, one of the TV units cabinet doors started to come loose and eventually gave way, had a closer look at the hole and it looked like it had
... Read more been previously filled with wood filler. Contacted focuson again and they replaced the whole unit. 6 months after that, the other cabinet door for the new unit started to come loose and gave way as well. Same issue as the previous unit but on the opposite door. Contacted focuson again requesting a refund as we were fed up of having them come over to either repair or replace their faulty products. Took us 3 days of following up with them before we go a response, and they only responded after we mentioned we would take this to Consumer affairs & VCAT. After a few back and forth e-mails the lady we were in contact with stated that this is the first time whereby 2 different units have broken down and insinuated that we were the reason for their faulty products and it was the way we have used them that caused this issue. We would have accepted wear & tear if we used the cabinet everyday, but we only keep important documents in there and rarely even open it to take them out as we don't need them on a day to day basis. Mind you, we have products from IKEA, Target and fixed furniture that has hinges that was installed 10+ years ago in the apartment that until this day still works fine and have not caused us any issues whatsoever.Find out how Focus On Furniture VIC, South Wharf compares to other Furniture Shops

Nice product and good value
VIC, South WharfI found the bed in the store and then looked it up online later. I called the store later to chat about delivery and price and made the purchase over the phone. The sales person was helpful and the delivery people did a good job assembling. It would have been awesome if they would have also taken the cardboard packing material, but left it for me to get rid of. If that had happened it would have been a 5.

Faulty couch - terrible customer service!
VIC, South WharfPurchased a heavy duty fabric couch recommended by sales man. In less than 4 month the fabric got issues. The technician guy offered a temporary fix and recommended to go for exchange of faulty fabric. You sent emails to seek advice and received Terribly rude customer service from [name removed] and [name removed] to pursue the issue through other channels! I would NEVER recommend their customer service!!!

Good quality Great Value for Money
VIC, South WharfAfter comparing pretty all major furniture stores we decided to go with FocusOn as we found it to be the best value for money. Some other competitors offer more stylish and comfort furniture but they are double the price as well. We got great service in-store and free shipping as well.

My AWESOME Orlando suite
VIC, South WharfBuying my queen size Orlando bedroom suite on 16 August was the culmination of a 5 year dream, and I'm ABSOLUTELY OVER THE MOON with my purchase - its honestly like sleeping an a cloud - the THERAWRAP ORTHO FIRM MATTRESS was the icing on the cake.
Every time in walking into my bedroom, I go WOW seeing the suite - I'm completely satisfied with my purchase and the staff were AWESOME TOO.
Good but could be better
VIC, South WharfBought the April queen size bed. Love the colour and so far, quality is holding up good. I think the slats all had to be drilled into the frame, which I thought was unusual and would not have preferred this. Delivery was communicated well and on time.

VIC, South WharfWe moved in to our new home from a rented place and needed to buy furniture for our new home. We did visit the DFO South Wharf store and bought the following:-
Orbost Dining Table and 6 chairs
Wormy Chestnut TV Unit
Wormy Chestnut Coffee Table
People in the store were friendly and really helpful in getting us to make a decision. It was easy to opt for the 24 months EMI option and the delivery booking was smooth and the delivery was impeccable. All the product was delivered and installed properly and we are really happy with our decision to go with Focus.

VIC, South WharfI made the purchase at the store. Sales staff were patient, knowledgeable and helpful.
Unfortunately, the two lads delivering the furniture were not. They unpacked my couch and then stuffed all the packaging onto my balcony. This is not only a breech of my apartment rules, it's hazardous to the public below (I'm on the 26th Floor). When I asked about it, they insisted they don't take away the rubbish. This came as a surprise as all other deliveries I'd received had all taken their rubbish away. This bad service was an ugly blight on an otherw
Furniture is great but got a pretty bad experience with their service
VIC, South WharfAs much as I'm happy with my couch, I got a very bad experience with their customer service. I wanted to buy an insurance to cover my couch, and they told me they would give me a call back as soon as they get the kit which come with the insurance.
I got a phone call a few weeks later from a very angry seller, who asked me what was my decision about the Kit. I was still expecting their call about that. He told me I was a liar as his colleague called me in front of him and let a message on my voice recorder. I was quite surprised to be treated
Good, Satisfied

Supprised
VIC, South WharfPurchased in store. Supprised with quality of goods (Buffett and side table, also a couch about 3 years ago, in great condition still). Unimpressed with miserable sales people. You should probably pay them more.

No Dramas, Good Service
VIC, South WharfWas looking for a couch for my apartment and happened to stumble upon Focus as they were having a mid-season sale.
Pros: Sales rep was friendly and attentive but not pushy. She answered all my questions.
Delivery was also great. No dramas and driver called 1 hour before, giving me time to get home in time. The delivery guys were friendly and did a great job at assembling my couch.

VIC, South WharfThe delivery teams contribution to your business is exceptional!

We rescheduled delivery to my convenience which was greatly appreciated!
... Read moreAbsolutely no idea how to treat a customer
VIC, South WharfAt all costs stay away from Focus on Furniture at DFO South Wharf. I have been let down 3 times now with the same delivery of my sofa and the care factor is zero with them. When I complained I was treated like dirt. I will say that one guy, [name removed], is a good man but unfortunately the delivery process is out of his hands. Other employees are so rude I was left red faced and tearing my hair out. My advice.,.,anywhere but Focus On Furniture and Shane Crawford should be ashamed to be associated with this farce of a company.

Hello Nick,
The VIP offer was absolutely available and valid on the weekend just passed and was subsequently a huge success. I am unsure why the store would not have honoured the offer for you. Th
