Gplan Cabinets

G Plan Cabinet Furniture a summarised independent look. This review should help you when is comes to finding the best possible deal.

Heritage Oak Furniture
According to G Plan this is a French Oak range, the style is chunky and does look to be actually made from real solid oak. Prices are competitive considering this should be considered branded furniture. You can pick up a Solid Oak Sideboard from the Heritage Oak Collection for around £600. This does not compare to favourably with sideboards from the likes of Oak Furniture Land but the quality is comparable, it does compare well with furniture from other regonised brands like Morris Group.

Fresco Teak Effect Furniture
We have discussed this range before has something of a retro style to it, should we call it 60's inspired styling. This is teak effect should quality is not solid wood. Using a Sideboard to benchmark prices the Sideboard is just over £600 unless you really adore the style avoid you can get better quality for your money. The Heritage Oak range for one!

Monet Furniture
This is available as bedroom furniture only (no dining or living) but we would suggest this is very much in fashion, a Louis Philipe bedroom furniture. The beds are sleigh style and cabinet tops are curved finish. Quality no idea G plan themselves seem sketchy is it solid wood or veneer, what veneer is used. A large Chester of Drawers is going to cost c. £600 expensive but very nice looking.

Next update we will take a look at the rest.

G Plan Furniture Sale

Well the time approaches for a big time in the furniture industry and this is January Sales. Most retailers will be kicking off the sale from Boxing Day. You can around this time pick up some absolute bargains for G-Plan as retailers will be allowed to discount heavily to clear stock.

This is theory of ours that G Plan control retailer prices quite heavily on the basis that allowing a free for all would devalue their product.

This is pure speculation of course but it would seem this policy has left the door open for a few independents to enter the market with an attractive offer for consumers. These now are at such a size that the old school bricks and mortar business can now no longer compete.

We are discussing here mainly cabinet furniture in the above paragraph, as far as I'm aware the sofa market has yet to see a new big power emerge. It would seem that the likes of DFS are pretty much on the ball when it comes to merging their marketing activities online and in store.

Apologies we have wittered on a bit, the bottom line is keep a close on furniture prices in the Boxing Day and January Sales, before parting with any cash make sure you search for any G Plan voucher codes.

G Plan Furniture Deals

Just a little heads up a relation of mine is a bit of dab hands at getting the best deal and she had shopped for ages looking for the best deal. In the end she phoned Barker and Stonehouse and spent some time on the phone getting a discount, you need a lot of charm.

Then she had the audacity to ask for interest free credit and she got it! It might be a strategy to get your furniture cheaper I think the best way is to actually phone the company and state you have an order to place today but need the best price.

Furniture retailers are quiet currently and are prepared to do a deal to get orders. Consumer Power!

G Plan Sideboards


One of the mainstay pieces of furniture for the G Plan Brand is off course the range of G-Plan Sideboards. As well as the Fresco which we discussed in our last post another popular cabinet furniture range which boasts a sideboard is the Gainsborough collection.

The lowest price we could find after a quick check was from Stokers Furniture and was coming out at £925. As ever you might be able to buy cheaper if you have a good shop around.

Our advice is to actually talk to a human to see if they will do you a deal especially if you are buying a number of pieces.

Their pitch to consumers is as follows;
Part of the Classic Collect, Gainsborough provides that special touch to every home. Designed to suit modern living Gainsborough's natural beauty enhances the warmth and welcoming feeling of your home
You should be able to have some luck with prices as the rumour is that some of the older brands are now really struggling. On a previous post we discussed Pinetum and their troubles and now it looks as if they are gone for good as we wrote on Furniture Choices, something of a furniture news site.

G Plan Fresco Buying Guide


One of the most popular furniture ranges that G-Plan offer is Fresco so we thought we would do a little article which could act as a buying guide on where to get the best price on this range of furniture.

The G Plan Fresco range has very much of a retro style to it which seems to all the rage at the moment so it is no shock to see G Plan do so well with it.

This collection was originally launched around 1969, the same year as the first moon landings, at the time we think it was regarded as ultra modern but now it does look dated. Very strange how these things work because despite its dated looks that look is very much back in.

You could of course argue that this has never really gone out of fashion as such.

Our benchmark Product will be the Fresco Sideboard the Large one, product code FRE040. The recomened retail price on this product is around £1,100.

We founbd three suppliers quite quickly (could not see on Furniture Village site) and here is how they shaped up.
