Quality Rating
Our products carry a Quality Rating from us, out of 5. It’s our honest view of how well a product is built and how long it lasts, so you can pick the right piece for how you’ll use it.
What we look at
- Material integrity: the quality of the wood, board, metal, foam and upholstery.
- Structural integrity: how well the frame, joints and fittings hold together.
- Overall durability: how well it holds up over time, based on the after-sales issues we see.
We don’t score looks, comfort or value for money. Customer reviews are a better guide for those.
What each score means
| 5/5 | Heavy, long-term use Superb materials and structure, with excellent durability. |
| 4/5 | Everyday, long-term use Good materials and structure, with excellent durability. |
| 3/5 | Everyday, mid-term use Good materials and structure, with good durability. |
| 2/5 | Everyday, short-term use Basic materials and structure, with fair durability. |
A half score, such as 4.5/5, means the product sits between two levels.
