Roman Furniture 'In Leeds Market' is a small furniture shop with many cheap prices and special…read moreoffers. Most of the furniture has a modern, stainless steel look. There are a few chairs with brightly-coloured seats or heart-shaped backs that you could imagine in a teenagers bedroom and quite a few lamps in many different styles, some with unusual glass beaded lamp shades and others with more traditional lamp shades with tassels. Smaller items include glass vases and a range of shaving mirrors. They also sell one or two cots, fish tanks and small shelving units. If you're in the market and you happen to be on the lookout for one or two pieces of cheap furniture it's worth having a look in Roman Furniture but it has a limited range and only really caters for those who like their furniture with a shiny modern look.

Emmaus is a charity shop specialising in second-hand furniture and books. The charity supports…read morehomeless people to "move on from homelessness, providing work and a home in a supportive, family environment. Companions, as residents are known, work full time collecting renovating and reselling donated furniture. This work supports the Community financially and enables residents to develop skills and rebuild their self-respect." (www.emmaus.org.uk). The furniture is generally of a high quality and very reasonably priced with some quite charming vintage-style cupboards and shelves. The books are very cheap at 50p for paper backs and £1 for hard backs. Although there isn't a huge amount of books, what they do have covers a wide variety of types and genres. I would definitely recommend checking out Emmaus if you're looking for decent furniture at an affordable price, especially if you want something with a bit of character. It's great to know you would be giving unwanted furniture a new appreciative home while supporting a very worthwhile cause.

There is a larger branch on the edge of the town centre but it is a bit out of the way. This one provides cheap, good quality furniture whilst making people aware of the cause. They have tables, shelves, sofas and lamps. The staff are pretty friendly and if you can't find what you want here, are happy to point you in the right direction of the larger shop.

This secret haven of bargains is yet another hidden spot that I would have never unearthed had it…read morenot been for Yelp. And, I'm glad I found it -since it really is out of the way. Basically, the chances of me randomly wandering about Mabgate (or there abouts) and stumbling upon it are zero, truth be told. Don't let that put you off finding it too though, it's dead easy to get to. Go through the car park behind the West Yorkshire Playhouse, and cross over the bridge. Turn right up the road and it's there in a minute. As you walk in you'll be confronted by a sea of knick-knacks, furniture, bric a brac. It's not tidy, it's not overly organised, but it's full and it's a proper treasure hunt. In some ways, it's similar to Poverty Aid -a huge space filled with a range of things, tons of antique cheap furniture, from wardrobes to chests to beds. There was even a piano and an old school writing desk, cheaper than you'd expect to pay as well. After all, it's still a charity shop, which means bargains are abound. The clothing section was a jumble, pretty messy, but that's where your inner explorer comes in. Seek and ye shall find, etc. I did come across a mental pair of home made harim pants, in the most bodacious blue ever, but even at a single English pound I wasn't sure I was cool enough to pull them off. There's a wee cafe too, if you need a caffeine break, and tons of literature on other local charities, events, and what Emmaus get up to to keep you clued in. Bonza. Basically, it'll always depend on what you're after as to whether you'll succeed in a shopping mission. But, it's well worth a right rummage for all you bargain hunters, treasure seekers, vintage magpies and so on. Take a wee wander, and have a look. Who knows what wonders you might find!

Make that reason Emmaus. It is a charity shop with a difference because it is also a community that helps homeless people out of homelessness. I fist heard about it on Radio 4 a couple of years ago and decided to see if there was one in Leeds. It was set up in France in the 1940s and is now a worldwide organisation. People in the community renovate and resell furniture to develop theirs skills and help them out of homelessness. The shop part of the community in Leeds is pretty large. Most of this is dedicated to second hand furniture but there are also clothes, brick a brack and a book area around a cafe where you can get cakes and very cheap meals. It is possible to donate to Emmaus and it is definitely a worthy cause or you can support the cause by visiting the shop. I believe there is also a small branch in Leeds City Market.

SLATE (South Leeds Alternative Trading Enterprise) is a second hand furniture shop, opposite The…read moreRange in Hunslet, which is 'a social enterprise providing work opportunities for people with learning difficulties'. I got that bit off the website so I wasn't un-pc about it. Mostly I like SLATE because of the bargainous second hand furniture, but you have to go on a Thursday or Friday because that's when they get their new stuff in. On a Wednesday it's a bit empty. Also they 'sell' second hand Dysons for a five pound donation (ahem), which they put together from parts from broken ones. There's some legal thing though which is why it's a 'donation', I don't know, someone explained it to me and I got confused. One time we went here when the minibuses were being loaded up and some man shouted either 'SAUSAGE! SAUSAGE! SAUSAGE!' at us or it might have been 'TOSSERS! TOSSERS! TOSSERS!', we couldn't tell. It was a bit unnerving.

Thank you for the absurdly unprofessional service--truly an experience I won't forget…read more We ordered a wardrobe in February, waited two months, and were supposed to have it installed tomorrow. But now, you've just told me that the door is broken with no replacement available! Your proposed "solutions" are insulting: 1. Pay full price for a new wardrobe and wait another 2-3 months. 2. Buy a damaged display unit at half price--knowing it's in terrible condition and in fact you just wanted me to help with the clearance of old display! What a good idea for your company! Don't treat me like an idiot! No apology. No compensation. Just inconvenience and extra costs dumped on me. And keeping to take more advantage of me! Put yourself in my shoes: How would you feel? What would you do? I expect a proper resolution.

He clearly had no intention in finding fault with the sofa, why would he as he is working for you. Its is my intention to have my own assessment of the sofa carried out by a furniture specialist. Off course this is going too cost; however I am prepared to except their findings. If they say the sofa is ok I will accept their diction. However if they confirm there are faults would Pratts accept the findings. Your upholsterer commented, "We are looking after the sofa". Correct this was a huge investment for us. The sofa we received is not wearing well the cushions are of poor quality even after fluffing they still look misshaped. This sofa is not even two years old & it looks like its 10 years old. My wife & I are very disappointed with the product. We came to Prats expecting high quality furniture & feel that we did not get the quality we paid for. We feel we should have gone to DFS etc.
