Our Journey of Authenticity: A Look At Our Online Reviews

Here at Sitting Spiritually, we're incredibly proud and inspired by the feedback we receive from our cherished customers. With over 400 five star reviews, each review is not just a testament to our craftsmanship, but a personal narrative of the experiences shared between our creations and the spaces they adorn. 

Over the years, the feedback loop with our customers has not only fostered trust but has been the cornerstone of innovation in our designs. It’s the minute, thoughtful touches suggested by our customers that have often blossomed into some of our most successful product designs.

How do you know if reviews are real?

We're acutely aware at Sitting Spiritually that we live in times where the authenticity of online reviews is often featuring on the news. With giants like Amazon facing scrutiny over fake reviews, it's understandable that potential buyers might look at our extensive list of glowing reviews with a pinch of scepticism. 

This brings us to address the authenticity of the reviews we’ve garnered on platforms like Trustpilot and Google, and why they are as genuine as the warmth you feel on a sunny day in our bespoke garden swing seats. So much of our family business is based on trust, honesty and workmanship, it's integral that you feel that same sense of trust when you browse our website.

How we collect our reviews
