we love next home and have spent a bomb in there, but you an get much better stuff for cheaper at places like dunelm and the range, which also have set up's to give you good decorating ideas.


Was about to say the range do some really good stuff and to top it off i get 25% off found quite a few small bits & bobs from there we want, but know getting around the sofa she wants from next, have to agree on how much people bang on about it, although it or most of it is better quality then say argos ect

Did my first round of shopping/looking yesterday & I have to say although Next isn't a prestigious brand it's certainly solid as far as the furniture goes. Not all of it is that great but it at least feels worth the extra money

But then again I found out I get 25% discount so my opinion has been bought :o

WTF? Next is hardly the kind of place you want people to know you bought stuff from.

They do good stuff but I wouldn't say it's a particularly prestigious brand.

next home is a more upmarket brand than say argos.

I'd rather have a £5 curtain pole tbh, do you think I had any input in what curtain poles I have?

You can't tell the quality when it's in the box. I won't be getting anymore.

I didn't know next was the sort of place you boast about buying stuff from either :boggle:

I just mean for ideas mate. I get home stuff from Matalan :lol:

Next stuff is extortionate. Got 2 curtain poles that cost the best part of £200 and they are crap.

I used to look through avforums but all the ones I liked involved having a wall basically covered in TV and speakers, missus wasn't having it :(

I normally have a look online then find nothing I like.

You pick stuff up as you go along, something will catch your eye.

Any decent places to check out online? Just for general decorating ideas, cool furniture, good ideas, colour schemes etc

Most of the top google results are a bit too grown up so looking for some suggestions

Might be good to start a list & have it pinned?
