This was my first time of using The Modern Furniture Company. We ordered all of our dining room furniture from here and Nick was extremely helpful in assisting us in choosing the right table, chairs and sideboard. Delivery lead time was really good (6-7 weeks) as all furniture is made to order and was far quicker than other companies like Dansk were offering (excess of 14 weeks). All furniture was delivered and constructed on site by 3 people who took great care to keep the dining room clean and tidy and can highly recommend them especially when you consider just how heavy some of this furniture

A great company whom we have used on numerous occasions. We recently ordered our outdoor sofa, dining set & bar stools from Nick & Emily. The whole experience was excellent from reviewing options on furniture to ordering.
Emily was extremely helpful in providing different options in line with our budget and the delivery team were very courteous and made sure we were happy prior to leaving.

We ordered our Bonaldo TL table from Nick and the team at the modern furniture company. They were extremely helpful from the outset in providing advise on the different finishes and the most competitive on price. The service has been excellent throughout from ordering, to delivery and set up and we are extremely happy with our beautiful table. I would highly recommend The Modern Furniture Company to any family and friends.
