Only fit for a Roadside Cleanup
Purchased a $3000 leather 3 seater sofa from Nick Scali Taren Point/Caringbah.I was so disappointed with the workmanship I asked for the sofa to be taken back the next day.Nick Scali said they would send a repairperson to "iron "out the creases .He came within the week and managed to remove a few wrinkles.I told NS I was still not happy and wanted the sofa removed.They then sent a "Leather Doctor" twice who said the sofa was in line with normal wear and I agree it looks like an old leather lounge that you see on a roadside cleanup that has had ...Read more
"normal wear" for years not a brand new sofa.The 15 year old lounge this new one replaced was a NS and obviously made in a different country as it was still in a reasonable condition in fact better condition than my now 4 month old sofa..I feel sick everytime I look at my new lounge and so disappointed with the after sales service .Do not buy and expect a good quality,well made sofa from Nick Scali.I will now pursue this with Department of Fair Trading and if I do not have success you will probably see it at a roadside cleanup in the near future :(
Purchased in November 2021 at Nick Scali Furniture NSW, Caringbah for A$3,049.00.

Really bad customer service
I'm happy with my furniture but the customer service is appauling. I can't count the number of times our scheduled delivery was changed. I'm still waiting for another furniture piece that I ordered and paid for last year December 2022. I won't be shopping at Nick scali again.

Misleading sales man
We purchased a lounge for $3200 + $90 for the delivery Total price was $3290 that included our delivery in this price as advised by the sale person. We paid our outstanding balance to Nick scali of $3200 30 minutes prior to our delivery was advised we had an outstanding balance of $90 and also pay $90 to the delivery driver. Called head office they could not give an answer as to why we now have to pay extra $90 received a call from the Kotara store and they also could not help and advised us we have to pay the amount or we won't deliver your...Read more
lounge was advised I could not talk to the sale guy we initially purchased sale with as he was on a day off and no one could help was just told to pay. Also when you call the shop you can not speak direct to anyone you have to leave a message. When you get quoted a price told delivery fee is included in the total price and then 30 minutes before delivery you find out you still have a outstanding balance it is very poor and misleading. Nick Scali you have lost a customer as we no longer have trust in your service.Purchased in February 2021 at Nick Scali Furniture NSW, Kotara.

To offer some clarity, our delivery drivers are sub-contracted to Nick Scali and as such, our delivery charges are separate as these go directly to our drivers. These charges are never included in any pricing provided regarding our furniture items. I apologise if this hadn't been clarified to you at the point of sale.

What's Happening With Our Purchase ???
Bought a lounge suite from your Midland Store on the 13th January 2020 paid in full. Have only been contacted from the store once have been in several times asking what's happening told Store Manager would call us (Never did). Went back in to store given apologies for not calling us with an estimated delivery date of 1st April to 9th April called in again told following week but would be confirmed by telephone call this week. My partner called around to the shop today and there is a sign on window saying you closed 3 or 4 days ago. Is anyone going to call us to let us know what is happening with lounge suite ? You've got my money the least you can give me is communication

Hopelessly faded after 14 months
A leather lounge which we purchased 14 months has faded from a lovely mustard colour to a cacky green cream colour, where it faced a window. Nick Scali refuse to remedy this in any way, instead insisting that we should have read the product document before purchase. We were handed no such brochure until after they took our money, I would never have bought such an inferior product if I’d known. Another leather lounge bought from a competitor is still perfect after 10 years. He Nick Scali was such an expensive purchase for us and they could not c...Read more
are less. Avoid this company! I have been researching my rights under Consumer Law. Apparently a company cannot simply claim to write off faults as acceptable. I refer to an episode of The Checkout which explains this. This is for Consumer Law To decide. So I will be taking this up with Consumer Law.Purchased in September 2021 at Nick Scali Furniture VIC, Frankston.

Hi Debbie,
Thank you for providing us with your feedback. ... Read more
As you can appreciate, with any natural product when exposed to sunlight for long periods of time, will cause fading whatever the natural product may be. As stated on the care documentation you received at the point of sale and on your tax invoice, we recommend you to "avoid direct sunlight which can fade colour." As you've disregarded what we've recommended, we cannot be held liable for any damage caused due to the choice of placement of your lounge in your home, and going against our recommendation of avoiding direct sunlight. I'm sorry to say the issue you're experiencing has not been caused due to a fault with the leather of your lounge, instead caused due to negligence. Sincerely, Hayden Nick Scali Customer CareI repeat: the warning about sunlight was not given to me until after the sale. I strongly object to your choice of language that this issue was caused by ‘my negligence.’ Since you are throwing that w... Read more
ord in, may I use it also and accuse Nick Scali of negligence in selling a product that will sit in rooms with windows where there is sunlight (unless you intend for them to only go in garages) and not make them fade proof (as the Gainesville suite has been this past ten years. ) Your tone is indicative of the snaky defensive and hostile response to our distress. that this big ticket purchase has been such a dud. Off to theSmall Claims Tribunal we go.Customer S.Nick Scali

Be aware
Be aware of the clause that says on delivery it’s your responsibility to dispose of rubbish. Well... industrial strength cardboard 8 meters long impossible to dispose of. It was dumped on my front lawn and I was told it’s now my problem to dispose of it. I would need 8 recycling bins to dispose of it and that’s if you have the strength and cutting tools to cut it up. Nick Scali service are ignoring the problem and only reposted to me with “I agreed to it”. Now it’s going to cost me $200 to dispose of it.

We offer a service whereby we install and assemble your furniture where you specify and move the old furniture out of the way if required. However, as stated on your order and in the SMS you had received, we do not take the packaging and plastic away from our customers' homes as our drivers make consecutive deliveries and it is a Workplace Health and Safety (OH&S) issue for them to have things like plastic and cardboard strewn over the floor of the truck when they're lifting sizable goods. However, I do want to let you know that this is an area we are aware of and we are always looking to improve our service for our customers. As such, we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. Sincerely, Hayden Nick Scali Customer CareSimilar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Say NO to Peace sofa by Nick Scali
I purchased the Peace sofa from Nick Scali Furniture with the upgraded leather and protection kit for $4489.00 including delivery. Shortly after purchasing the sofa the cushions lost there firmness and the sofa became very uncomfortable. The sofa looks good but as a for it's comfort/performance, it is terrible!! I would not recommend anybody purchase this lounge suite.

A prompt and well handled problem.
After a short time one of our single seater lounges had marks in the leather.
Nick Scali acted promptly in rectify problem.
Of particular mention is their upholster "James De Maudave" who after checking with us what time could he replace damaged suite I found this young man to be both extremely courteous and very well mannered.
It was a pleasure to meet him

Very Prompt and professional service.
In December 2015 I purchased a 2 seater and a 3 seater leather lounge, each with electronic recliners from the Nick Scali store at Kotara, Newcastle. Staff were excellent and received delivery of my lounge without any dramas. About 10 months both electric recliners stopped working. I contacted the Kotara store and they put me in contact with the Nick Scali warehouse in Sydney where I spoke to Abdul and he promptly posted me out two new electrical cords for the lounges. Upon arrival the cords were incorrect but with another phone this was rectified quickly by Abdul and the correct cords were sent out. Many thanks for your prompt and professional service. Much appreciated.

Expected more for my money
My 4.5 seater Nick Scali leather Peace lounge cost over 5 grand and i didn't expect it to start sagging after a few months of normal use.
Customer service was fantastic, prompt reply and repair organized within a week.
Upholsterer added extra foam in the seats but it only slightly helped.
I was told that it's normal for the lounge to sag over time.
Frankly I'm disappointed.

Three call outs on poor quality.
Twice I have had Nick scali staff out to fix the frame and the metal legs, as mine squeaks badly when you sit on it. Not to also mention the repair man had to add a missing support leg that delivery staff had forgotten to add when delivered! (They just want their $90 bucks!) I have also had to have a leather repair man out to fix stitching that came loose in the corner. (I have no kids and no pets, the couch gets barely used!) Customer service has been good and respond quick, but I paid just over 4 grand for this couch! Just shows price means nothing anymore. If you want a quality couch get one made in Australia with a metal frame, not this Malaysian made mess. 8 weeks waiting for this thing and all I get is disappointment.

Excellent lounge
The lounge is very stylish and feels amazing. The leather seats are hard so you will not sink in. Very comfortable and head rests can be lifted up or down. Make sure that if you get a light colour such as the bone or white, that there will be a jeans transfer to the leather which is very hard to get off. I would suggest that you put a leather conditioner on before you use it. It's similar to comparing it to a car, a polished car is easier to clean than a car that is not.
We have a bone colour and a chocolate brown. The chocolate brown is easier to maintain.
Comfortable, unique, great quality, hard seats, will be stylish in 10 years as well
Expensive but worth it

Great product from a great store
Over the last 12 months we have been shopping around looking for a new lounge suite and always came back to Nick Scali. We decided to update most of our lounges and dining suite and this was one we were very happy with. The build quality and ease of purchase was in part due to the simple processes in Nick Scali but also mainly due to the fantastic staff (Julie) at the Canberra store. We were that happy with the service and range of products we bought all our new suites there.
Great service and fantastic range of modern products at a reasonable price. We know they will survive just as long as our previous sets.
So much range it took us a while to choose...not really a bad point but wow they have some nice stuff in there

Heard bad reviews but turned out to be good.
We wanted to buy a different looking couch and loved Nick Scalli designs. After reading online reviews, we had to think hard weather to go with them or not. As we didn't like any other company's design, except for more expensive stores, we decided we'll give it a shot.
We went to South Warf store in Melbourne. The service was less than ordinary. Staff don't know the products at all. And there is an old lady there who wastes your time by simply talking(but not about the product)! We signed the papers finally and left store feeling ordinary. On...Read more

Has anyone bought the Peace lounge suite in light stone and if so, were you happy with it? I am not sure whether
to buy a light colour or dark colour.

Yes, we do have it in the bone colour. Depending on usage and if you have kids, it would have to be cleaned thoroughly every 6 months. Dye transfer is an issue with lighter colours.
My parents have one in chocolate brown, very easy to maintain, dont have to clean it and no dye transfer issues.
Customer S.Nick Scali
Dear Lorraine,
Thank you for your enquiry.
I can understand finding the perfect lounge to reflect your lifestyle and tastes is a very important decision to make. Here at Nick Scali, we have an extensive range of lounges each with different characteristics and features, thus giving you a variety of options to choose from. Our leather grades are also categorised to benefit active lifestyles, comfy living, and those wanting to achieve a uniquely natural and authentic feel in their home.
With the right care and use, you can see yourself enjoying your new Nick Scali lounge for years to come. Our Peace range is 100% leather and as you've noticed is offered in various colours. Choosing the right colour is also an important decision to consider and often ties in closely with lighting (natural and artificial) in any space.
With this being said, have you considered the colour scheme inside your home and are you also thinking about textures? Do you want to achieve a contemporary or an antique look? Does your existing furniture match/complement any of the colours offered for our Peace range? I'm happy to answer any questions you have on this, please feel free to contact me via [email protected].
Sincerely,
Hayden

Hi there. Can I ask which type of leather did you choose for Peace? Was it Performance or Natural? And how do you find the quality of the type of leather chosen? Thanks in advance.
1 answer
Hi there
Think peace only comes in natural. That's what we bought.
I bought a white one. Looks stunning but even with a lot of care from us and the house being kid and pet free, there are stains.
The leather care kit we bought from them is good. It has worked for us do far. I just wish I opted for coffee colour which they had in store. That looks great as well.
Also as I have many visitors at a time, I shouldve bought a bigger couch. Peace is great but takes a lot of space with not much seating. I have to add additional chairs to my living area.
Their service is great which helps but staff have no knowledge of product at all. Found that in two stores.
