Style, comfort and value with history. Our Pre-Loved Upholstery collection gives you sofas, chairs, recliners and footstools that are well loved but far from worn out. We know buying second-hand upholstery brings doubts — condition, smell, structural soundness, matching décor, and delivery. We tackle those head on so you can enjoy great pieces without uncertainty.
What You Might Worry About (And How We Deal With It)
Condition & wear: Each piece is inspected, cleaned, repaired where needed and clearly described. We rate condition (excellent, good, fair) so expectations are clear.
Structural integrity: Frames, springs, recline/riser/lift mechanisms get checked. If anything is weak or functional, we note it up front.
Fabric smell or leather smell issues: Items are aired, deodorised, and for fabrics we provide cleaning or protectant advice so any residual smell is minimised.
Style mismatch or looking ‘dated’: We try to curate styles that still work in modern homes. Neutral colours, classic lines, mix-and-match friendly upholstery so your new piece joins your room well.
Delivery & accessibility concerns: Bulky furniture, tight stairs, narrow doorways – all these are considered. Measurements provided; showroom available in Richmond so you can see in person; delivery & collection options clearly stated.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “pre-loved” mean in your listings?
It means furniture has been used before but is still functional, structurally intact, and has visible signs of use rather than damage. We clearly describe condition so you know what you are purchasing.
Can I inspect an item before buying?
Yes. In showrooms we have many pieces available for viewing. We also include detailed photos and condition notes in the online listing so online buyers get a good feel before purchase.
Is there a guarantee or return policy?
We try to ensure you are satisfied. Depending on the piece, we may offer short guarantees or returns. Check each listing for the specific terms.
How much does delivery cost for pre-loved upholstery?
Delivery cost depends on size, weight and distance. We provide quotes before purchase. Bulky items have extra care in packaging and handling.
How do I clean or care for pre-loved upholstery?
Follow material care guidelines. Fabric furniture may benefit from professional cleaning or stain treatments. Leather needs conditioning. Vacuum seams and clean spills promptly. Ask us for suggested products and tips.
