Office furniture

The most unpleasant shopping experience ever. Very nice service until deal in done. We ordered our furniture in November and we haven't received it yet (March 14). The promised date of the delivery was January 15. We need a new dining table and a bedroom set but we will be avoiding Sterling House by all means.

Formal Dining Table and Buffet

Sweet talker, bad after service, extremely long wait time. Full of empty promises. Who in their right mind delivers furniture 2 hours before midnight. Table top slightly damaged, but no big deal. Edges slightly damaged, but no big deal it's just money.

This customer was treated like a friend so for him to post a negative review is absolutely incredible!!! In regards to extremely long wait!?! They were promised 4-6 weeks and he received in 5 WEEKS! We received their dining room set on a Friday at our warehouse and our delivery department called to schedule a delivery time but his wife Nina was ADAMANT about having delivery that same night as they had a party on Saturday. Our delivery department explained that we are already booked solid for that day and could get them on for the following day! She said that she HAD TO HAVE THAT NIGHT no matter what! Our delivery department called us and asked what they should do and I told them that both Bob and Nina are great people so please fit them in for that night no matter what. So we fit them in as a last minute add-on. At 9pm our drivers called them and explained they had just finished their last regularly scheduled delivery and asked if they still wanted them to come that night or should they come Saturday morning. Both Bob and Nina INSISTED that they still come that night no matter HOW LATE!?! So for Bob to put down "Who in their right mind delivers furniture 2 hours before midnight" is strange because HE IS THE PERSON THAT WANTED DELIVERY 2 HOURS BEFORE MIDNIGHT!! In regards to the edges being damaged...I sent our service tech out the next day to do touch-ups and Bob was VERY happy according to the service tech! I feel as a store we went above and beyond to help get these guys get their set on time and to get a negative review very disheartening.

I feel that as a store we tried everything to satisfy this customer who's name is Peter NOT John. I really think there should be some sort of control on Homestars part . As this customer did purchase from us but did not buy $3200 worth of furniture. He purchased a single $299 coffee table. The coffee table missed our Ashley truck for Christmas and I advised Peter Glarentzos (John) that unfortunately he would have to wait until our next truck in January. At this point I offered him a full refund if he wasn't willing to wait or he could borrow a coffee table until his came in. He said that he was "ok and could wait". When the table arrived in January, I personally delivered the coffee table to his residence in the Beaches (approx. 1 hour drive). As a retail store we pride ourselves on making EVERY customer happy. I realize we can't win them all but we honestly do try our best. These kind of reviews are upsetting especially after John (Peter Glarentzos) promised to have his review removed after I delivered his coffee table. I really wish there was a Homestars where we can rate customers :)

Sectional Sofa

Highly recommend Sterling interior for all your home furnishing purchases. We shopped around for months to find the best suited sectional for our new home and happened to walk into Sterling one day. We where very impressed with the friendly customer service from the minute we walked in. Peter was absolutely patient with helping us find the right sectional and kid friendly fabric. We shopped around and he gave us by far the BEST price around! Now, we are in the process of purchasing kitchen tables, lighting and accent chair from Peter. Peter said our sofa would take 6-8 weeks but was ready by the 5th week ... this is what happens when ordering from Canadian local manufactures. I've referred many friends and will continue too! Thanks for all your help Peter! Can't wait to finish the rest of the house!

Custom made Bedroom

We just received our custom made Mennonite bedroom set and it's out of this world!!!! What an absolute delight it was dealing with the people of Sterling. The manager is very knowledgeable about the products they sell and helped us customize the pieces to fit our room. He took the time to remove and replace handles so we would be able to better visualize how things would look.
He called over the his designer in helping select the right finish to match our room. She was very knowledgeable as well and helped us make the right decision.
The only drawback to this experience is that the set did take 2 weeks longer than promised but it was WELL WORTH THE WAIT!!
Thank you thank you thank you!!
Look forward to dealing with you guys again.

Bedroom set, bar set, desk

Sterling House Interiors is a location for Furniture depot. When I went into the store in July, I was attracted by the price the owner of the Furniture Depot gave me for what I was looking for. The two sales people (Cristina and Peter) were extremely friendly and helpful. I left happy with a $16,000 purchase.

In September when we moved into the new house, that was when the problems started. Our furniture was delivered on the scheduled date, however, one main bar was missing from the bar set (how would you miss that?), the mirrors on the wall bar were cracked, and the marble top on the night table was badly chipped. After talking with Sterling House people on the phone, the delivery guys took the wall bar back, and promised an exchange of the marble top for the night table. We were told that all three pieces would be delivered in two weeks. Two weeks later, no news arrived. We called Sterling House, and were told that maybe another two weeks. We patiently waited for another two weeks, still no news. Finally my husband and I drove all the way from Maple to Mississauga to the store, and in the store, we were told that our furniture would be delivered on the coming Monday. On Monday, the delivery truck came at about 8:00pm after my husband had been waiting at home for a whole day, with the missing bar, nothing else. The delivery guy told us that he thought the rest of the stuff would be here in another two weeks (Another promise of two weeks? What else is new?). That was about 1 month ago. Till today, we still didn't get anything. I sent many emails to the store, never got any replies ever again. My husband tried to call many times again, and he always got the answers that the purchase had been confirmed to be on the truck and that we should receive them at the end of next week. Now it is three months after the first delivery, we are still missing the exchanged items for the two damaged pieces.

My husband and I are the kind of people who don't like to whine, but it is getting to the point that either of us can stand the frustration anymore. He just made a fax to Sterling House to make it more formal, and I am thinking that if this issue is not getting resolved in another week or so, we are going to make a compliant to the Ontario Minister of Consumer Services.

Update: Sterling House called my husband after receiving the fax, however, this time, they claim that they didn't remember that was a chipped marble top to be replaced. How interesting!

My advice to this store is: avoid as much as you can unless you can stand the nearly to none customer service.

This customer was a super nice person to deal with! I feel awful that she and her husband has had to wait this long for her replacements. Unfortunately, the manufacturer of her furniture has been in "transition" and left us with no other recourse. When we promised her 2 weeks, this is what we were told by our supplier. We did attempt to respond to her everytime they contacted us but there was a period of 3 weeks when our email was not functioning. We did respond immediately to their fax. I have personally been dealing with this supplier to get this resolved and we have finally received replacements that we have scheduled to deliver next week. Karat please contact me at the store to see what I can do to compensate you for the delay and for your patience regarding this matter. I hope that we can make things right with you. Thank you.

Entertainment Unit

We were interested in finding an entertainment unit. Staff was friendly, helped us find something within our price range that fit our taste. They took the time and showed us different options from the catalogs they had in store.
