TESTIMONIALS

Everything about this acquisition has been a rare and poisitive experience. My Idler arrived promptly, clearly marked and very well packed. It's self-evident the quality and stitching is of a high quality. I shall be pleased to pass on your contact details to any of my friends who may want to learn more.

One of the nicest varieties of swing seats I experienced was as a child when friends had an enormous old 'swinging sofa'. I was delighted to find this design has been resurrected by a fellow enthusiast as The Idler, a product faithful to an original 1930s model....

"My neighbour has just bought an idler and it reminded me of these photos taken on my daughters 21st. Thought you would like to see them. I still feel luxurious every time i sit on my idler and it has become a treat for all my friends to drink tea or if feeling particuly decadant a glass or two of champagne - it's become a village institution."

"One or two really lovely items are worth the investment - I bought Wilverley's Idler Swingseat last year which the whole family fought over. Choose one or two colours in the scheme, much as you'd do inside the house, and then use plants as the colour that knits the scheme together."

"Just to say a huge thank you for our Idler Swing Seat. It's everything that we thought it would be and more. We have sat on it every day since we have had it and everyone that visits admires it. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone."

- Ode to Idler by the sea -

Oh what a wonderful sight It's absolutely my heart's delight Into its cushions I sink feeling so in the pink I think I might be here for the night It lives up to all expectations A reason for huge celebrations As I swing to and fro I am just so all of a glow Completely overcome with elation To her friends our daughter decides to announce Off up the garden she goes with a flounce "We have the bees-knees of a swing seat Where we can all dangle our feet" Round they will come all set to pounce

The dog eyes it up with suspicion Pondering whether to take up a position The indoors sofa is his love But this one moves from above Oh what a terrible decision The bubbly was a lovely surprise We could not believe our eyes Thank you so very much We had to get in touch Here is to our Wilverley Idler.

"We have been enjoying our little haven in the garden tremendously. Thank you very much for such a hassle-free ordering and delivery, great instructions (with scissors!)and a fabulous product. Easily the best purchase we've made for ages!"

"Am sitting with coffee (too early for chilled wine) and the added bonus is that the wifi reaches here - many happy hours ahead. Thanks so much for a fantastic product and excellent customer service."

"The foldaway stainless steel frame is portable and tough and the marine grade canvas covers can be hosed down or removed for cleaning. The sprung cushions are surrounded by durable coir ...."

"Hurrah! Wife is very pleased. It is truly a swing seat for the Gods."

"Elizabeth a big thank you I love my swing seat!"

I'm just ringing to say how delighted I am with my Idler. I'm absolutely thrilled to bits!

"I have only had my swing seat for half a day but I know already that it's the best thing I've ever bought."

"Simply fantastic, the swing seat is beautifully made and much better than my expectations"

It is simply superb, we gaze out over the pond and relax completely!

"We've used our Idler every day - I can only say that I wish I had bought one years ago."

"A purchase I will not regret. I've been Idling away for weeks"

We just wanted to say what a wonderful The Idler swing seat is. Saturday was warm and sunny in the afternoon and we took the opportunity to sit and enjoy the sunshine. It is so comfortable that we struggled to leave it and I know we will appreciate our Idler for many years to come. Thank you!! We will certainly recommend it to our friends.

All I can say is that I am absolutely chuffed to bits with my new Idler, outstanding quality and amazing attention to detail.

I just wanted to say thank you for the Idler it was delivered safely on Friday last and is now standing majestically in my garden.

I know it's going to give me many years of pleasure and relaxation. The weight of the cushions and the fabric set it apart from any other swing seat I have ever sat upon. The most special memory it evokes is of sitting on my friend Judy's idler 23 years ago, which had been recovered ad-hoc in denim! The Devon sun shone down on us as we sat on the idler eating cake, drinking tea, putting the world to rights whilst watching my children then age 3 and 1 feeding chickens on the lawn.

The Idler is a thing of beauty.

Just to confirm that our idler was safely delivered on Thursday and we are absolutely delighted with it. I want to thank you so much for pulling out all the stops on the delivery lead time to enable us to have it in time for our family party, and in time for a forecast week ahead of glorious weather! I am looking forward to idling away many happy hours both in this and future summers!

The Swinging Sofa
"Before Autumn usurps all outdoor relaxation, loll your Indian Summer days away on a swinging garden sofa. This one, aptly named 'The Idler', from Wilverley is made with thick gauge canvas, properly sprung cushions and the design is reminiscent of the swing sweats from the 1930s."

"Just thought you would like to know the Idler arrived safely and it looks fabulous here on Cortes Island in Canada."

"We're delighted with the Idler, it's a wonderful asset to our garden."

"We are absolutely delighted with the Idler, it is even better than we thought. Your packaging of the seat was superb and the fabrics really lovely. We already have it assembled and had afternoon tea using it yesterday, it's delightful and it brought back many memories of my husbands family. Once again many thanks for creating such a quality item."

"I received my Idler and I'm phoning to say how absolutely fantastic it is, the quality of the fabric is more than I could have wished for and the little things like including a pair of scissors was really nice....we're delighted."

"Well - now I am the happy owner of the swinging garden sofa, and had my breakfast in it today - in the early morning sun! I am very satisfied with the sofa and the quality and I know I will have a lot of pleasure for the years to come."

"Just a message to say that we have now got our beautiful seat installed in the garden. It looks great and we are very pleased!"

With Summer looming, now is the time to buy your garden furniture. This vintage-looking upholstered Idler swing seat from Wilverley costs £1695 for plain canvas and comes in various colours and patterns.

"We can now relax in our garden!"

THE KING OF SWING
"Invest in Wilverley's luxurious swinging garden sofa, the Idler and learn the art alfresco indolence. It is based on a model from the 1930s that is still used in the garden of Elizabeth Durrant, the company's co-founder. Traditional craftsmanship has been combined with state-of-the-art materials to create a piece of garden furniture that is as comfortable as any indoor sofa."
