I actually have given up now with this…
I actually have given up now with this sofa and armchairs it’s just awful the new company is no better than the old company both just as bad literally no reply's to emails or phone calls I’ve only ever wanted to buy new seat cushions because the old company ones are so bad you can not use the sofa, I’ve had calls late at night last year from ‘Ian’ whilst he was driving up the motorway, I was in tears saying I wanted to burn the sofa and I just wanted to purchase new seat cushions and how he would come and sort it to now you don’t even get a reply to anything I’m done … do your homework they sell the dream but I’m not sure about customer service after purchase !

Shamelessly dishonest and awful customer service
I purchased the Orlando sofa from the original owner of Maker & Son; they sent to two side pieces and assured me the middle piece (it's modular) would arrive in a few months. I raised the issue of fabrics matching to which they assured me there would be no batch issues as it was a natural fabric...
The middle piece eventually arrived and of course, it was a different colour entirely to the two corner pieces I had.
I complained immediately to the company who said they would replace all cushions with covers from the same batch.
I had been waiting and chasing up these cushions for 8+ months, only to finally be told by a generic voicemail that the business had gone into administration. I spoke to the new owners who took it over to explain that i'd been promised these replacements, and they told me they were unwilling to honour the promise made by the company.
In short, attrocious customer service, dishonest completely (misled me for 8+ months that they were working on a solution) so now I am left with a sofa that costs £8k + and has mismatched cushion covers.
Totally disgusting way of conducting business. Never ever buy from these people. I have since warned several friends and colleagues off of the company, and most recently a few influencers who have posted wanting to purchase products. Shamelessly dishonest...

Dear Anna,
We are sorry to hear about the disappointing experience that you have had as a result of the significant changes to the original business in 2022. Sadly any outstanding resolutions, or promises made by the previous company, were not passed on.
As the new team and business going forward, we are able to offer at-cost solutions, however, as you mention, we no longer offer the Orlando design, nor work with the workshop who produced this design for the old company. Unfortunately this does mean that we are unable to obtain new covers on your behalf, however, we would be more than happy to share the details for the workshop with you if you would like to contact them directly.
We are sorry that we are not able to rectify this for you in the usual way but please do let us know if you would like to discuss this with us further.

Please do not buy from these cowboys
I bought a sofa, foot stool & chair from the original company. When the new people took over they offered money back or to fulfil the order - I opted to fulfil the order as I’d saved especially & wanted to complete the set. Zero communication. Everytime I’ve rung - they’ve said they were working on the back log. They are marketing these sofa’s as if they’re high end - which I’ve commented on, on their adverts. They have now contacted me to say they’re prepared to discount a further order but will not be honouring the order that I’ve paid for. Now, they have blocked me from social media. Absolute sham of a company - DO NOT BUY FROM THESE COWBOYS

Constantly puffing the cushions
Constantly puffing the cushions, they are very heavy and it’s a full time job! Very uncomfortable to sit on unless puffed and looks messy constantly. I followed the instructions to wash the covers, but the zips come apart and the stitching on the zips is coming away. I wish I had bought another sofa that wasn’t this much hard work!

Cushions losing their shape so quickly
We didnt have problems with the delivery however the we certainly expected better quality given that we spend €8k on this sofa! The cushions are not keeping their shape and moving around/sliding down so much. After sitting on it for 2 minutes, cushions lose their shape and i cannot be puffing them every time i sit on them, especially when they are this heavy and big. Dont be fooled by the puffed, perfect looking sofa you see on their socials, what you will experience is a messy looking sofa..

My biggest regret for our house renovation is using this company.
I ordered 3 sofas from them back in 2021. We also ordered two spare covers for these XL sofas and never received them. It’s all very well to say that people should contact customer service but I have done that many times and spoken to people and they are initially helpful and then mysteriously disappear, and won’t answer emails or the phone…and I still don’t have my spare covers which no doubt they will say it was too long ago that they were ordered. And the sofas aren’t that great. 1 in particular is lumpy and uncomfortable. A huge regret to ever have used this company.

Dear Stephen,
We are so sorry to hear of your experience with the original founding company and its administrators. We understand that prior to our ownership of the brand you had previously purchased a modular ‘Orlando’ design sofa that has now been discontinued and so, sadly is no longer offered.
Our UK licensee between March 2023 – December 2023 offered you a resolution under their license agreement. The licensing contract has now ended and while we are not always able to support resolutions promised by the previous licensee or company, the fabric needed for production of your new covers was provided to the licensee at our own cost and should now be complete and have arrived with you. If this has not been received please get in touch with us urgently so that we can help resolve this matter with you.

Inside filling just doesn't work - breaking our backs
We are having so many problems with our sofa and armchair - not from the make of them which I am sure if very good - it's the cushions - almost impossible to keep plump and then gives us bad backs. I think they need to provide better filling. Couldn't imagine if you had bad backs trying to plump them everyday - it's like a workout - I can't lift the L-Shape on our sofa.
Please provide more appropriate stuffing for the sofas

Following customer feedback, we have developed an improved cushion design since taking over the brand in 2022.

Over 2 years & still waiting!
I ordered a Song sofa, a couple of throws and scatter cushions on the 30th May 2022, paying the full amount of £7186.00. I have seen absolutely NOTHING! I have had very little ressponse from M&Son. I was about to ask for my money back when I was told my order was complete, in storage but there was a delay due to the difficulty the company was in, & was assured I would get my order & to be patient. OVER TWO YEARS of being patient is a joke.

We are sorry to hear your feedback and how the closure of the original founding business, which owned Maker&Son at the time of your order, has impacted your overall experience with us.
From our correspondence with you we can see that you had your furniture delivered to you prior to the closure but with the incorrect covers, and sadly a rug which you had ordered was not delivered to you. We appreciate your frustration that this was not resolved for you before the Brand and IP were sold and contracts of sale dissolved. As the new team responsible for the brand going forward, we have been able to provide at-cost solutions to the vast majority of customers who were left with unfulfilled orders. Sadly, we do not sell or stock the rug you purchased, but we are able to help with a set of new covers for your furniture.

So unhappy with the product
So unhappy with the product. So many issues, never ever rectified, the sofa has literally given us bad backs. We have to plump it several times in the same hour as the cushions literally fall onto the floor and squash into nothing. Once when a cover was replaced (due to the previous cover being incorrect) I was told that the sofas are 'made for people with house keepers' when I shared the plumping issue. The sofa makes our house look a total mess and we feel like we have totally wasted the huge amount of money spent.

Company finally back on track
This company has been through a lot of challenges since the pandemic but it seems that it is finally back on track. My first order fell foul of this rocky period inasmuch as I had a long wait for the order to be fulfilled and at times there was a bit of 'radio silence' during changes in the company. My order was fulfilled however and I wasn't disappointed with the quality of the product when it arrived. It was a different story with my recent second order. Customer service is excellent now and the order was delivered on time. I would have no hesitation in ordering from the company again.

Shocking customer service and quality
Shocking customer service and quality. After spending £10,000 on a sofa I was appalled buy the build quality. I removed one of my sofa cushions to spot clean only to find that the cushion had a large split which was leaking feathers everywhere. How this passed quality control I don’t know, as it had clearly been bodged together. This has also resulted in the latex pads inside rotating and making the sofa lumpy and very uncomfortable. On contacting M&S I was informed they would address the matter however despite numerous follow up emails to different team members I have been completely ignored. Very disappointed. Avoid this company.

Simply the goods are not as described…
Simply the goods are not as described and are of poor quality. Some cushions are almost empty of filling. The experience is like sitting on a lumpy plank. Other cushions sag and are unable to sit correctly. We ordered the new sofa in August 23 - arrived Dec 23. We noticed the poor workmanship immediately and advised the following morning less than 24 hrs. Over 3 months have gone by and to date, Maker and Son have failed to take any action to fix. Numerous emails and calls. Danny from Maker and Son was not surprised when we spoke in February. In addition the footstool came with the incorrect material. And in March, I called Maker and Son again, this time Emma took the call and she acknowledged production issues from August-Dec 23. And added they have revoked "their" license and Maker and Son has nothing to do with them! It's shocking! We purchased a Maker and Son product! Now we are being ignored! We fell in love with the marketing and description of the "most comfortable sofa in the world" and the experience from their mobile showroom visit. Over £8000 spent. In my entire life I have never had an experience so appalling.

Deeply disappointing
Further update: still no response from their customer service department despite chasing them. It has now been over two months. I have less faith in this lot than the last.
Update: despite the swift, public response below, I’ve heard absolutely nothing from the M&S team.
The quality and durability of these sofas are surprisingly poor. We ordered 3 X sofas and 1 X super king bed for the cottage and within a year the cushions became too soft, despite the faff of plumping them daily. The long cushion on the Song L-shape is full of lumps and can’t be unzipped so I’ve enquired about a replacement and am yet to hear how much that will cost. The new team are disinterested in resolving these quality issues and overall, considering the expense, we felt the need to warn others of our experience.

Crooks
After being promised a replacement for a defective sofa, the company went under, which was a significant blow for us, especially after spending £8,000 on a sofa we can't use.
This was already pretty bad. However it gets worse…
The new owners would not replace the sofa. However, they did offer us a 50% discount on a new sofa or any necessary repairs to fix the defective one. We chose the latter, paying an additional £2,000 for new sofa cushions, believing it to be the more economical option than a new sofa at half price. We made this decision based on good faith that the new management would fulfill their promise.
This arrangement took place in September 2023, with a £1,000 deposit paid upfront and the final payment to be made upon completion and delivery of the sofa.
In December, we were informed that the cushions were ready and were asked to pay the final amount. However, after making this payment, we received nothing and have never heard from them again.
Email and after email sent and completely ignored, leaving us in a state of total disregard.
The lack of communication and action from your side since the final payment was made is not only bewildering but also represents the worst customer service and crooked behavior I have ever encountered in retail.
We have a newborn, live in a small flat, and have nowhere to sit with our baby boy. I urge you to reflect on the impact of your actions and the distress they have caused our family.
