I have recently been looking for two leather swival recliners with seperate foot stools. After an extened and fruitless search including online, I came upon Custom Design Furniture at Castle Hill. There I was greeted by very friendly staff (Puneet and Vladimir) After I explained what I was looking for, they were very helpful in explaining the… Read more

various options that were available to me and the advantages and disadvantages of the various options.

At no time did i feel any pressure to purchase, they were very knowledgeable of the products they were selling.

All information and exchanges were friendly and courteous, like talking to a family member.

With the information they both supplied me, and no pressure to purchase, I left the store with more information about my need and the benefits of the product.

Again there was no pressure to purchase, I left the Custom Design Furniture, feeling asb though I was leaving family members after a catch-up.

After careful consideration and some further research and visiting another store, looking at different manufactures and doing more comparison, I went home to think about my choices.

The next day I returned to Custom Design Furniture at Castle Hill and place a deposit on two Stressless, Sunrise swivel recliners chairs with seperate ottoman.

My reasons; apart from the quality of the Stressless product, it was the honesty and friendliness of both Puneet and Valadimir

12 weeks for a 6-week promised delivery. No response to emails. Rude and unapologetic when visited in person. Save yourself the immense hassle and do not give this company your business. They cannot be trusted to keep their word. Show details

Custom Design furniture have done it again – We could not recommend Custom Design Furniture Caringbah more highly. My husband and I purchased furniture from this company a few years back and were more than happy with the service, so when we needed more due to an impending move we went back. It was no trouble at all that we were moving interstate, they simply arranged the delivery at minimal… Read more

charge. Once again we could not fault the service or the furniture supplied. Alex and Ron bent over backwards to ensure we got everything we asked for and went out of their way to help us.

A lovely store that do truly custom design – Wonderful friendly team who really do work to the mantra that they can Custom Design almost anything they have in store. We were marvellously looked after by Brad who showed us all the different options we could have with a lounge we liked and we decided to buy it based on the fact it could be made to our choice. From there lounges to tables,… Read more

coffee tables and TV display cabinets can be made to length, width and wood style and tones that you choose. They really do Customize your Design. As I have said it’s the team who make this place such a wonderful shopping experience. They were very helpful and gave some great advice, especially Brad who truly is a service ambassador for this store. He was extremely helpful in our selection and was real about the delivery times.

Being that the items are made but custom to your choices in Australia, means there is a waiting period to get that special and unique piece of furniture, that will make your home that little different than those pieces you get immediately from imported of the rack, large chain furniture suppliers. Great selection and lovely options make this a real go to store for those pieces that reflect you, and your personal style.

Custom - means custom - exactly what I wanted – Custom Designs Taren Point were excellent. We spent a weekend looking at possibilities. Thought about what we wanted. Then discussed and designed a TV unit to accommodate all our components and storage needs. Love the outcome! On the several times we visited the store for ideas, we never felt pressured. In fact, we were encourage to take ideas from what we liked and discuss a custom design. Show details

Fantastic Store & Experience – Diana & Lisa at Custom Designs at Belrose were excellent. Diana knows the products so well and helped us enormously during a first visit to the store when we had a big order of furniture to organise. There was a good range of designs and colours to suit our needs. Calls and emails were very prompt and followed up on quickly. Our furniture was… Read more

built & delivered very quickly. Very happy with the delivery guys and our furniture. I would highly recommend Custom Designs at Belrose for anyone looking for good quality furniture to be made for their home.

Poor quality furniture – Don’t buy any lounges from this store. You definitely don’t get what you pay for! The quality of the lounges from the material to the manufacturing is very poor and looks cheap compared to other much cheaper lounges I have bought. Recently bought a $5000 lounge and was very disappointed as after only 3months the material started pilling. The… Read more

customer service I got to resolve this issue was appalling from the retailer to the material company. It took 4months to resolve and it would have taken longer if I wasn’t calling or emailing weekly. They were hesitant in repairing the lounge initially but with my constant insistence eventually they did . Buyer beware.

DO NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY. I purchased the product on March and received it on October – The store was simple to navigate. The products I received were unsatisfactory for what I paid for, this entire process was stressful and frustrating. I will not purchase from this shop ever again. Show details

Failed to deliver correct Chairs and Table leg scratched – Very unpleasant experience and poor customer service. I purchased a Dining Table and ten chairs from Custom Design at Hills Super Centre in September 2020. I’m told there is a 6-8 week wait. After 6 weeks I am delivered my table and ten ‘loan chairs’. These chairs are both different model and stain. I notice that the table leg is scratched and I'm… Read more

told they will fix it when my chairs are swapped out. Fine, I accept this. Fast forward to February 2021 and the scratch is repaired and my chairs get replaced. But they are the wrong model. Different to what I requested. Another few days go by while they try to get the chairs I ordered and now I'm told that the chairs I chose are no longer available, discontinued. I had the option for a full refund and return the furniture within the week. So am I supposed to sit on the floor while I wait another 8 weeks? Very inconsiderate, dishonest and no empathy to the customers expectations. Would have been nice to know when furniture is discontinued BEFORE you sell it. Would have saved me a lot of hassle and anguish.

Renee is an absolute legend. She suggested a range of leather & timber recliner chairs that we wanted to put into our new caravan. Her courteous manner was very much appreciated. She followed up on our requests to supply us with a delivery date prior to leaving in mid-March. Thank you Custom Designs Belrose....and Renee. Show details

The worst product ever – We purchased the attached sofa 6 months ago, within 2 months it sunk and left our a-s marks on it. Contacted [name removed] and was advised we could have a replacement (but the manufacturer stated we would be in the same position 6 months down the track) or we could upgrade, AT OUR COST, a former foam. We wanted to support an Australian company but have been truly disappointed in this company. Show details

Brilliant furniture storewide – Custom Designs has impeccable quality furniture, and customer service. I bought a sofa and armchair at their Moore Park store (the Soho 3 seater and Soho armchair).

Adam. Jane was really personable and helpful with her knowledge of the 'contending' sofas I was considering buying- Soho, Jojo and Cleo; Anthony has really across the board knowledge of the furniture industry and passion for quality customer service; and Adam was attentive and enthusiastic.

I am so happy with my new sofa and very happy with my choice.

Dining room table - stained colour nothing like showroom – Bought a dining room table, and the colour is nothing likE we went through in store. I spent thousands of dollars on this table and dislike the colour so much. I now put table cloths to hide the true colour of table. Such a disappointment. I went back to store, and had an argument, as nothing like showroom pieces, or what we described but he said… Read more

it looked good, and was told will probably need to pay more to re stain. Spent so much money already and can’t afford to pay more, so now have to live with it.

Highly recommended – We are absolutely thrilled with our new wall unit. Anthony and the team could not have been more helpful and it was an absolute pleasure dealing with them. Nothing was too much trouble and the unit was tailored exactly to the size we wanted and the colour. This company gives good old- fashioned service which is so rare today. Can highly recommend Custom Design Furniture. Show details

FANTASTIC SERVICE AND FOLLOW UP – We recently purchased 2 lounges from Custom Design Moore Park. We had looked at numerous lounges before we went to this super shop. Anthony and his team were outstanding. Anthony in particular took time to listen to what we needed and absolutely nothing was too much trouble. This extended to when we had a query a couple of months after we had… Read more

Amazing service – I had looked at many shops for a sofa to fit a difficult space before I went to Custom Designs at Moore Park SupaCentre. The staff could not have been more helpful, they lent me fabric swatches to take home and trial and at no stage did they rush me or try to close the sale. The custom built sofa when it arrived was worth all the time and effort,… Read more

Great service and great range – We ordered 2 sofas and a chair and ottoman from Jayne at Custom Designs Moore Park. She spent ages with us and was very patient and helpful. We were extremely satisfied with Jayne and Anthony and all the staff for a professional caring attitude. The sofas and chair are just what we ordered and are very stylish and comfortable.

Sales are not aware how add-ons affect the final product and are reluctant to resolve issues if they – Jayne at Moore Park works hard to get the sale and once done she doesn't want to know about you especially if something gets wrong with the furniture. Be careful when customising the furniture you see in store. While sales people would be happy to sell additional features, they'll do nothing to rectify issues if such features significantly affect… Read more

comfort (even though sales have deceptively withheld that information from you).

In our case the sofa bed we received was higher and shallower in depth compared to the sofa displayed in the store, back cushions were also shorter. Overall, the lounge we've got was quite uncomfortable compared to the one we saw in store and based on which we made the purchase. When I contacted Jayne, she had no intention of helping to resolve this situation even though it was her fault of not warning us that installation of bed is likely to affect height and depth. Her response was "nothing can be done". When I insisted, Jayne promised to discuss our situation with the manager Anthony and contact us ASAP. Haven't received a word from her in more than a week, we went to the store to check how the things are traveling. Anthony did not seem to be very keen to help us either, however, he promised that some other person will come and take a look at the lounge. Needless to say that no-one turned up. More than a month since they promised to send someone and neither Jayne nor Anthony bothered to follow up with us.

Now using the lounge for about two months I noticed that one seat cushion started sagging, perhaps because the foam was not evenly cut. Given Jayne's attitude towards their customers, I'm very reluctant to raise these issues with her and her boss - it's simply waste of my time. It's particularly disappointing because they knew I'm pregnant and want to have these issues sorted soon.

happy customers – We recently purchased a 3 seater sofa from the Moore Park store. Changing the seating and back cushions from 3 cushions to two was no problem and we were also able to change the length of the sofa. How refreshing to be able to basically design your own couch. The staff were so helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We love our very comfy couch and will definitely be using them again in the future.

BEWARE of a "custom design" order actually being done correctly – We purchased a 'Boston style' loungeroom set at Custom Designs Moore Park store in September 2017. IT HAS TAKEN 7 MONTHS to have all of our furniture delivered!! Satisfactory service initially, however when the 'Custom made' display cabinets arrived they had not been made as per order. The incorrect cabinet doors were taken away to be corrected… Read more

as per the original order.

The doors were returned correctly made but damaged.

The doors were then returned incorrectly stained on 3 separate occasions and did not match the rest of the furniture.

Throughout this ridiculous process over 7 months the extremely poor communication between warehouse and sales staff left us frustrated and angry.

Furniture arrived on every occasion extremely dirty and dusty.

Notice given for time of delivery is poor and via text messages of broken English.

Warehouse and delivery staff have a very limited command of English which makes it virtually impossible to communicate when there is a problem.

I would recommend if you have a "custom made" design delivered that is incorrect, do not let them take half of the order away as they are clearly not capable of correcting such errors.

Or simply... do not purchase a "custom design" from "Custom Designs Furniture"!

If what they offer is not quite what you are looking for, look elsewhere! Buyer beware.

Outstanding service – Knowing we only had a finite space for our new sofa, we visited the Moore Park store to get an idea of what was available and Anthony and his staff helped us make our decision on shape, type of cushion, style and of course the fabric. Everything was made to measure and fitted perfectly into our space. Then we chose covered dining chairs and the… Read more

fabric chosen complemented our sofa beautifully. Anthony was just as excited as we were to see the final result. The whole process from decisionmaking to final product was smooth and easy. I would definitely recommend Moore Park Custom Designs to anyone wanting high quality Australian made furniture at a reasonable price.

An amazing purchase experiemce – We went to the Supa Centre in Moore Park to shop for a lounge. Every store we went to had the same approach - here is what we have; it comes in a choice of 3 fabrics, and you can have it in 9-12 weeks. Then we went into Custom Designs where we met Anthony. We had the most amazing purchase experience as Anthony designed a lounge that exactly… Read more
