plainsharon 20 Report post Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) Day 53Purchasing of FurnitureWent to hommage furniture located at No. 40 Jalan Pemimpin Tat Ann Building, #03-02 and was serve by Charles and Eric, they were not pushy and they are definitely knowledgeable in sofa and mattress. We were the last customer and they took time to explain till 1.5hr pass the closing time. They hardly budge or rather do not budge on their pricing unlike certain stores. After purchasing from them we did a quick googling on them. True enough their feedback were nothing but just good review and satisfy customers. Glad that we have purchase from them and have paid full payment using CC as paying deposit will only allow deposit to be made in CC but balance to be in cash or cheque.Thanks to juxstapose that we have found a great place to purchase our furniture. We were planning to roam around more furniture shops to do more research but decided that we were too tired and decided to just purchase from hommage furniture We bought a 2.5 seater sofa with the same designa as below :Image is a 2 seater sofaImage is a 3 seater sofa :Hommage boast about the material used for this sofa to be exclusive for the sofa supplier :Material Used :Similair Barbarra or Brandy Lounge Chair :And a 1.5m Dining Table. 3 things off the To-Buy-List Edited December 3, 2013 by plainsharon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HeheThough they have their own principles, seldom felt safer that way that we wont be easily chopped. After we paid the deposit then remember to do up research on Hommage. Luckily all reviews on renotalk were good review.The non removable cover is really a draw back for us too but we somehow overcome it. Anyway to replace the cover will take a few hundred.

That one is cheaper and wif removable cover... Sorry ah, juz a little bit curious. =PComparing to the almost same sofa from star living and Hommange.Star Living : CheaperHommage : More comfortable and worth the moneyAs Eric was explaining to us how sofa are usually 5 legs for more support but this sofa from hommage uses 4 legs and still could provide 5 years warrenty. Further more, we test and find that the sofa from Hommage is more cushion-ie, have the bouncing feel while star living sofa feels more harder and not so cushion-ieFabric material wise, Hommage feels and looks are of better quality compare to Hommage.Star Living SofaHommage Sofa Edited December 3, 2013 by plainsharon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
