Back at Dunelm, the Olney Behind Sofa Storage Unit has received six reviews to date. The first states: “Looks good. Bit fiddly to build but not quite as bad as others made out. Just be methodical and follow the instructions.”
The second notes: “Just what I was after for behind my sofa in my newly decorated living room. Put together by myself no issues. Great storage unit. Looks smart and practical lots of storage space, yet to fill.
“I love this unit,” a third wrote. “The colour matches perfectly with my other furniture. It serves its purpose brilliantly for storage, the side cupboard is a bonus. It sits lovely behind my sofa and I can display some of my ornaments on the lovely top.”
One shopper, however, wasn’t quite as taken with the storage unit and awarded it just two stars. It reads: “Lovely looking piece of furniture but it way beyond the average person to build it.
“Not helped by some unlabelled parts. My husband is very practical – he built our house – but this nearly finished him. So I wanted to prepare others to factor that in to the purchase.
“Great for storage,” a four-star review mentions. “It took me five hours to assemble this sideboard. It’s sturdy and it looks great though.”
