Pros and cons
COLAMY
Pros
- Priced from €199.99 with free delivery and a €0 threshold, so a single chair costs the same as a second one
- Delivery time of 0 weeks, which ranks 1 of 50 brands on speed
- 3 year warranty, level with the office chair category median of 3 years
Cons
- Assembly included is a no, so you put the chair together yourself and the €199.99 entry price covers the chair alone
- The range is office chairs, dining and armchairs, so anyone wanting a sofa or a bed looks at Dublino Moebel instead
- Warranty of 3 years is shorter than the longest terms in the office chair category
Teak Warehouse
Pros
- A stated delivery window of about 3 weeks applies to Ready to Ship orders
- Furniture is assembled in Texas before dispatch, so it is ready to use on arrival
- Returns run up to 10 days after delivery for a full refund, store credit or an exchange
Cons
- Delivery rates vary by location and order size, so the freight charge lands on the order itself
- Retro-active price matching is refused, so a lower quote found elsewhere stays with that seller
- Returns close 10 days after delivery, leaving little room for a slow decision in your own space
Who each suits

- Anyone fitting out a study or spare room who values free delivery over a showroom visit

Teak Warehouse
Who it suits

- Shoppers who like to judge a piece in their own space, with 10 days after delivery to send it back

Questions about each
COLAMY
How much does a COLAMY chair cost?+
Prices start at €199.99 for the range covering office chairs, dining and armchairs. Free delivery is included and the free delivery threshold is €0, so the price you see is the price you pay at checkout. There are no delivery fees and no minimum order value.
Is there a membership or a plan I have to renew?+
COLAMY sells individual pieces rather than subscriptions, so there is no introductory price that later turns into a renewal charge. You pay at the point of order, and the 3 year warranty runs alongside the piece rather than being tied to a plan.
Teak Warehouse
How much does Teak Warehouse furniture cost?+
Entry pricing starts at $149 for a stacking chair, which gives you a floor for a first order and says little about a large set. Freight varies by location and order size, so budget for it separately from the furniture. Delivery is charged rather than covered by the store.
How long does delivery take?+
The published lead time for Ready to Ship orders is 3 weeks. Pieces outside that group carry their own timings, which is worth confirming for the specific item before you commit. Collection is by appointment, so you can take a piece once it is ready rather than wait for a delivery slot.
