Has anyone experience of a company called Furniture express nr. Estepona?
We are considering buying a furniture pack for our apartment in Almerimar.
Any feedback or views would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Don

Thanks for the help, but I've looked at Villapac.
The Furniture Express site is http://www.furnitureexpressspain.com
Anyone know of them at all?

Hi DonH,
We actually went out to take a look at Furniture Express Spain (www.furnitureexpressspain.com) a few months ago on a sort of mission to source companies we can recommend to future clients. We came away feeling we had found a very likeable and professional company who bend over backwards for their clients. They have even agreed to deliver to Costa Calida/Blanca at no extra cost (even though they're based in Estepona). They will mix and match furniture and even throw in a few freebees for good public relations. Unlike some other furniture companies there are no hidden costs and they're not afraid to give you the price of individual items.
Personally I would have no hesitation in recommending them, I'd also like to add that we're not connected to them in any way, we just felt we could trust them. We will be recommending them to our clients.
Regards,
Steve

Hi Don
We bought from Furniture Express and have been delighted. They sent me photographs via email of bits of furniture that I upgraded/asked for clarification, are very flexible and really do care that you get exactly what you want. They even arranged to deliver our furniture on Saturday 23rd December so that we could use the apartment over Christmas. When we visited for the first time, it was like walking into a show flat (pictures on the wall, cushions on the sofa, ornaments dotted around.
Go for it, you won't be disappointed.

We furnished our property near Orihuela only this month using Furniture Express. We found their service first class from beginning to end. Being a British company based in Spain, they were able to fit in with our plans at short notice and delivered on a bank holiday which was a real life-saver as our completion date coincided with the holiday week-end. Kathy and Anthony provided a personal and efficient service and I found their advice re: specific furnishings, extremely helpful. The boys arrived with the furniture at 9am on the Friday and when we returned to the property at 3pm it was like walking into a show-house - they did everything, even down to arranging the place mats on the table! Their after sales service has also been first rate and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Just come back from Duquesa, spent a week looking at furniture shops and was getting really fed up as I couldn't see anything with a wow factor, that was until we walked into Furniture Express and it took my breath away, everything I had been looking for.
Glad to see the comments about them further down as I am really nervous about buying in Spain, but Liz went throu everything with us and mixed and matched lots to get what we really wanted, we went for the Marbella package and can't wait until January when it should all come together. Only back yesterday and already had four emails from them. So fingers crossed it all goes to plan.

Having just come back from Spain , unless you are very short of time then do it yourself gradually as you can save so much money. What we are doing is buying the lounge furniture from one company - probably Imperial in Malaga and get the other products ie kitchen products from the large supermarkets. Curtains can be made in your local shops or Merlin Leroy or is it the other way around. One company was charging us a fortune for the curtains to be made and when we saw the cost of material and ML charge only 10 E a metre to make them - these companies are making a kill. Spain has such a choice that you could probably buy the curtains off the shelf. It is very tempting to hire one of those companies and believe me I have been tempted . We bought a beautiful set of cutlery for 6 which included steak knives, bread knife and two other chopping knives at the Supermarket at La Canada for 19 Euros - that supermarket is absolutley briliiant rather like an upmarket Waitrose but I cannot remember its name.

Tamsin, it would be Alcampo supermarket according to Google. Must say, although we're in another area totally, we much preferred sorting it all out ourselves & likely much cheaper for better quality but we did take our time which is something often others don't have. Market stalls make curtains too very reasonably.

Also an advantage of doing it over time is when you get a package, initially its great, but when its in theplace sometimes things look a bit odd or not quite right, or you see something else that would have matched better, so I prefer to get the basics then take time shopping around for the rest
Others feel differently and prefer down to the last teaspoon done and ready to go!

Just to say Furniture World at Estepona has a very large selection of everything you could possibly want, even fitted carpet!!
However, leave Andelucian Dream Interiors well alone, having purchased a package from them would not recommend them to anyone!!

I Agree, just had them, thought they were great until I seen all my neighbours and felt embarassed telling them how much ours cost, all the bedding fell to bits in first wash, cutlery etc is the cheapest and pictures all cheap, I'll be replacing them all bit by bit, even the tv stand is naff.
