When it comes to FAQ's relating to sofa & upholstery there is no enquiry more common than "can I order fabric samples?". Well, here at Utility we listen and strive to improve our service so that you have all that you need in one place. That's why we've added a brand new feature to our website - the ability to order fabric samples for all upholstered products quickly and easily from every product listing.

How do I order samples?

It's pretty straightforward. Follow these simple steps...

(We're using the Fritz Hansen Egg Lounge Chair as an example.)

Step 1 : Navigate to any upholstered product and click the "i" icon next to your desired fabric range. This will open a popup modal displaying some additional information about the fabric type.

Step 2 : Click "Order Free Fabric Sample". This will open up the fabric sample page specific to the brand you're desired product belongs to (in this case, Fritz Hansen).

Step 3 : Add your fabric samples to your shopping basket and proceed to checkout as you would with any other product.

It's as simple as that. We've also got a new one-step-checkout with multiple payment options (Paypal, Amazon Pay, Credit/Debit Card) that allows you to check out quicker.

If you find yourself having any difficulty placing your fabric sample order or need more advice, you can take advantage of our "live chat" feature during office hours (9am - 5.30pm) weekdays or email our sales team at sales@utilitydesign.co.uk
