Great service, great quality. Our caravan seating was totally falling apart due to sunlight degradation. I contacted Amanda with dimensions and a photo and she quoted me and said that it would take approx 3 weeks. I was very pleased with the price and said that I would contact her again when we stopped using the caravan. We went up to see her with the seating and cushions, picked the fabric and she said that it would possibly be 2 weeks. We were called in 1 week to say that they were ready. We were really pleased with the quality of the work and the pricing was very competitive.

Amanda has been so helpful helping me choose and even customise the footstool by adding a different colour piping. I received the footstool exactly 2 weeks after ordering it which is what she had promised. It's of the highest quality. It looks so perfect in my living room. I definitely recommend ordering from this shop.

I commissioned a buttoned footstool from Amanda, and enquired whether I could supply my own fabric. This wasn't a problem and Amanda gave me details of how much was required After she had received my fabric, I realised I needed a bigger footstool, contacted Amanda, and she responded immediately stating it wasn't a problem. My footstool was made and shipped within two weeks. It arrived, packaged really well. The footstool is beautiful. Immaculately made, fantastic quality, perfect. The service and quality of workmanship that Amanda and her company deliver is outstanding. There is absolutely no

Amanda was fantastic, helping me choose a leather that she did not have in stock. Provided me with colour samples. Really responsive to my queries and patient with me whilst waiting for pay day! Very friendly and approachable. My large leather footstool is perfect, the legs matching my country cottage chair and 2nd sofa. I feel privileged to have a piece of commissioned furniture. Hand made in Britain. I would happily recommend. Good quality,good value very professional and responsive Amanda made it a perfect online transaction.

Bought a footstool via Etsy and am so pleased with my purchase! I contacted Amanda as the sofa I have is a lot taller than average and she was able to tailor the measurements of the footstool to be taller in height and the result is amazing! Within 3 weeks of initial contact, my footstool arrived. So pleased with the service, fast communication and the quality of the footstool. Such good value for money and free delivery! Would recommend to anyone

Just received our footstool/coffee table and we love it. It has been a pleasure to buy through A.H Furnishings because unlike lots of larger companies, they give a fantastic personal service. I first spotted the footstool on Etsy but I wanted a different colour to what was available on Etsy. I messaged Amanda and within two days she had sample fabrics sent to me in the colours that I wanted. I also asked for a slightly higher footstool and she was able to do that too! Chatting over email was so simple and quick and Amanda was true to her word on delivery timescales, then letting me know as soon
