Woodworm in 2 month old Oak Furnitureland drawers
Comments

I discovered woodworm on my two wardrobes, chest of drawers, dressing table and nightstands delivered in 2019. Phoned Oak Furniture land today and after sending photos they are replacing the lot next week. £2000 +oliviaknight_99 said:Hi,
I purchased a chest of drawers and 2 bedside tables from Oak Furnitureland In October of last year.
Bedside tables arrived in November, chest of drawers early December. All fine on arrival.
At the end of January I noticed a small hole with dust at the front of one of the drawer panels, thought at first it was a small chip.
This hole soon turned into 5 with dust piles on the floor, and having sought advice from friends in the building trade there is no shadow of a doubt its woodworm. Considering the chest of drawers arrived 2 months ago the furniture most definitely arrived with the woodworm already in the panels. I understand that all wood should be treated for such things prior to sale.
I have tried calling OFL numerous times with no pick up and have filled in the complaints form as well as sending emails including pictures as evidence (also attached here).
Can anyone advise on my consumer rights around being refunded/having the drawers replaced?
Thank you,
Olivia
