Ordered fireplace that was advertised as in stock and paid for it after talking to the direct fires staff.
At that time they did not inform me the fire was not in stock. Not until I had made payment did I get notice it was not in stock and I would have to wait 4weeks .
Informed me a of a delivery date after chasing them and delivery was actually a week late.
Very poor communication and should not advertise items as in stock when actually not .

Visited Cheadle showroom.
Visited Cheadle showroom, lots of choice available. The staff we spoke to were helpful both in the showroom and afterwards on the phone. Order was delivered on time and because we did not have room to take immediate delivery, fire was held over in their premises and delivered on the requested day, taking count of our availability to assist unloading.

Great looking product but disappointing customer service
Ours was an easy sale as you were recommended to us by Bluebell and we had a good idea of the type of fire we wanted. We saw an example of this in the showroom and ordered it as seen. Unfortunately, when it was delivered, the crystals had not been included and upon querying this we were told that “You will have to come back to the showroom and pick up the crystals yourself”. Not great customer service with the customer having to make good the store’s error.

Delivery info very suspect
Reviews are useless unless they are honest. So here goes. My wife and I went to a showroom in Cheadle , saw an electric fireplace suite we really liked and purchased it on the day for £1649 including a £50 new buyer discount. We were told by the salesman that the item was in stock and would be delivered within 5-7 days and the delivery was included in the price. Their website confirmed the same also. After 7 days we had heard nothing from them so I called them up and after a chase up by Claire we were told the delivery was delayed due to a part not being available 🤷🤷🤷.. she called me back later and told us the item would be delivered 3 days later. A confirmation e mail said between 9.00 am and 6.00 pm.
The day came and I had arranged some muscle due to the fact the website / message details said they only do a kerbside delivery. At nearly 12 noon Claire rang and said it won’t be delivered today. No real reason given but it will come tomorrow. I asked why it was midday before I was being told and again no real explanation provided. I was annoyed as so much planning had gone into the day as we were going on holiday two days later. She said she had helped me sort out the delivery 3 days earlier and so I politely reminded her that it was me who had to chase them to find out what was happening and not the other way round. Didn’t seem to care and said they offer no compensation or goodwill gesture for the inconvenience I had been afforded. So take it or leave it. I put the phone down on her as I was so angry. The item was delivered midday ish the following day… one man delivery. My son helped him unload it and brought it into the house. The item was as purchased and we are happy with it. Communication poor / delivery info via sales techniques is suspect, but otherwise a great product. No further contact after delivery until asked for this review.

Hi David,
Thank you for your review.
We are glad to hear that you have been pleased with the electric fireplace suite now that it has been received, and we are sorry for any inconvenience relating to the delivery.
Our Sales team had advised of estimated delivery based on the supplier's normal lead time. It was only upon ordering this that our Dispatch team was told that a part was to be confirmed, and they contacted you as soon as they were made aware to keep you informed.
Dispatch then arranged an expedited delivery through the pallet service, as a gesture of goodwill and in recognition of the inconvenience to yourself. We appreciate that there was a further 24-hour delay on the part of the warehouse for our delivery partner and can only apologise for this. Unfortunately, while such complications are thankfully rare, shipping delays can and do happen on occasion, often due to factors beyond our control. Again, our own Dispatch team made sure that this was on an expedited service, at no additional cost to yourself, to try and ensure that this arrived with you ASAP.
If there is anything else that we can do to assist at this stage, please do let us know,
Kind regards,
Direct Stoves & Fireplaces
These guys need to get their contract…
These guys need to get their contract with their delivery partner sorted out. I deliberately went with this company because of the guaranteed 48 hour delivery. 5 days later and still have not received it. I don't mind a delay, but it's the lies and incompetence of the haulier service that means I do not trust anything I hear now. I cannot fault the service, advice and support from Damien in sales. Nor Claire from customer services ... but I now just want my money back.

Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear of any negative experience with our delivery partner.
We can see that you had processed an order with our sales team on the 21/03 which was then due for delivery on the 25/03 (48 hour/two working day expected delivery, excepting weekends). We appreciate that this was not delivered as anticipated on the 25/3 and that our dispatch team then had to chase this for you on the 26/3 to indicate a delivery slot that day.
We aim to fulfill any and all orders by the time frame recommended at the point of ordering. This being said, as we do use third-party couriers for deliveries we cannot 100% guarantee delivery times and can only apologise for the 24-hour delay.
Our delivery partner had provided a POD (proof of delivery) for this order and we take it from subsequent correspondence with our Dispatch team that the pallet was left with an immediate neighbour, such that you will have now received the goods.
If there is anything else that we can do to assist at this stage, please do let us know,
Kind regards,

Disappointed!!!
Purchased a fire fairly local to home, wasn’t told there would be a 5 to 6 week wait, that wasn’t a problem as such but I was never updated on delivery . When I contacted the seller I was told they would ring me back, they didn’t . I contacted head office who promised they would ring me back, they didn’t, Eventually I got a delivery date……the fire arrived with just one man, no way could he carry the fire which was on a pallet, I had to help carry it into the flat down a flight of stairs ( I had open heart surgery 5 years ago ) not ideal. I fitted the fire but came to remove the glass to set the logs and the glass was impossible to move , I contacted Direct Fireplaces who told me I had to make a claim under warranty ….bearing in mind I had only received the fire that day I find that strange……2 weeks later I’m still waiting for an engineer to call !! The only good thing was the price which was very competitive!

Delivery nightmare - entirely unhelpful
Seems we aren't alone in our disbelief at the terrible manner of the delivery drivers, reading other reviews. Ours has left the goods on a pallet abutting the pavement, blocked and damaged our gates and when explained that there was nobody available to receive the pallet (just a mother and newborn) responded that it was "not his problem". Charming. This company has a lot to learn about customer service, we will not be returning to find out how they get on.

Hi Mr Warren,
Thanks for your review.
We are sorry for any inconvenience regarding the delivery and saddened to hear of the negative experience with our delivery partner. We do appreciate your feedback so that we can try and ensure the best possible service going forward.
For future reference insofar as the pallet delivery, the delivery information on our website does state that "the drivers are contracted to deliver the item to your property and must use a pallet truck to lift/move the goods which are normally quite heavy and can be up to 1mtr wide (occasionally larger). If they cannot operate the pallet truck safely due to gravel/stone drives, steps, or slopes as examples they will only be able to leave the item at the first available access point. They will try to assist as best they can but can only stay at each property for a limited period. They cannot bring the goods inside your house and will leave the goods with you on the delivery pallet".
If you are still in need of assistance or would like to make a formal complaint regarding the courier, we would encourage you to email dispatch@direct-fireplaces.com with the query and any order information. Our team will be happy to advise as needed.
Kind regards,
Direct Stoves & Fireplaces

The driver who delivered our Limestone fire place was very unhelpful and when I requested to exactly what was in the create he stated only deliver the goods. However the driver who delivered the gas fire was really polite and helpful. No instructions on how to assemble the surround. Balanced flue gas required a little opening than surround was designed for. After quite a few adjustments we managed to overcome the problems. Overall a poor service.

Thanks for your review. We are sorry to hear of any disappointment with the delivery service.

Inaccruate delivery lead times.
It feels like they draw you in with inaccurate delivery dates. What was initially listed as 3-5 days quickly became 10-12, then became 30 days without any form of update. I had to calls 4 times for an update, so I cancelled the order.
I think improved communication and a bit of honesty are very much needed.

Hi Guljinderpal,
Thank you for your review.
As we're sure you can appreciate, our range of gas inset fires includes both open and glass fronted designs with their own benefits. The reason that there are strict fitting requirements for any gas fire (not just the model which you have ordered), including hearth sizes and clearances to combustibles, is in recognition of these being living flame appliances.
There are retailers who will sell fire guards and similar if, for example, a customer has young children or pets and wishes to install additional protection.
If we can offer any further advice or assistance, please do let us know.
