Hi Essops,

I have received your email which is not helpful " NO guarantee on covering fabric or leather " why not have guarantee if you know you are not selling quality, I paid a lot of money to be told this now when they are ruined, I was told at the store that the couches had full 1 year guarantee when I purchased them , then your email is saying that there is not guarantee for leather? also we started writing you emails and WhatsApp of complains with Photos since May with no response.........see attached photo is this even genuine leather?

Below is the private email received from Essops yesterday after writing complains since May with no response, why would I buy an expensive couch that starts pealing a few months later and does not have guarantee???

Good day
I trust this email finds you well.

****Maintenance****
Fabric:-

- Fabric lounge must be vacuum daily to remove dust
- Cleaning must be done via steam cleaning or with “Masterguard Textile Care Kit”( available from our stores).
-Masterguard or Teflon Coating is recommended to prevent liquid seepage & staining (enquire price in store)
