schong2111 Â Â 10 #13 Posted June 13, 2012 Don't think I've been past the shop as its not on my route to anywhere really, but there's a few decent things on the website. Shame there's no mention of prices though. Â Although I would like to see the sort of person that buys some of the other items of furniture on there..

rubydazzler   11 #14 Posted June 13, 2012 The dining chair that they are selling in the style of a giant pink high heeled shoe looks particularly lovely.It's a dining chair? I wondered what it was, although I would so like that shoe in the red and white in my hall, just for the laugh, like! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

quisquose   10 #16 Posted June 13, 2012 i love driving past and having a nebby in the window. its not my taste but it is very different. i like imagining what sort of folks buy them and how the rest of their homes look  well done for daring to be different  Same here, although I don't think it's anybody's taste tbh, but it does make me smile.  Lilco's comment was very helpful, and I notice the website is in slightly better taste than the shop window. If the shop window is just a bit of fun, an attempt to be different, create interest, then well done for that. You certainly got mine, hence this thread.  If there really are buyers for the stuff in the window, then well done for that too. You can no doubt sell snow to Eskimos as well.  KHAN190's patronising (pre-edit) comment was less than helpful though. I notice from the website that a Mr Khan is the owner. If that's him then he should be ashamed of what he said, and take advice from Lilco before posting in future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bethsmummy   10 #17 Posted June 13, 2012 The website has surprised me actually. You do have a few nice modern pieces. So I stand corrected. You should display more of the modern/ sleek lines / high glossed furniture. That would attract more business I'm sure. Sorry though but I had to laugh at the sofa with the pull out mini bar. That should appeal to a few sheffielders. Lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

mrsb73 Â Â 11 #19 Posted June 13, 2012 It always makes me chuckle when I drive past it and I too wonder who has any of those pieces in their house it all just looks so cheap and tacky but that's just my opinion if it floats yer boat then that's all good!

Bethsmummy   10 #20 Posted June 13, 2012 Yes me. Don't think her indoors would approve though, and no i don't live in a council house.  :D no neither do I that was just a huge generalisation by the owner of Roomstyle. Having a go at a large proportion of prospective customers is never a good idea. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
electro_bits   10 #21 Posted June 13, 2012 To be honest this shop is a nice place with a lot of nice stuff, plus the owners arent too bad either, my family has been usin this place for years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
mafya   246 #22 Posted June 13, 2012 I actually know the owners of Roomstyle and would say the furniture is not all like the something different pieces on display, I think it is a good way of getting people interested in what other pieces the shop sells. Well worth a look if you want decent furniture at decent prices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Lol  The owner of roomstyle wouldn't post a comment like that, probably a relation or employee as the owner is a very nice chap.
