The Windsor and Oakland Sofas Are Back — 12 Years of Quality, Reintroduced

The Windsor Sofa. The Oakland Sofa. Two of the most trusted names in our showroom for over a decade — and after 18 months away, they're both back. Same quality we've always backed, an exciting new choice of foam comfort, and introductory pricing that makes it easier than ever to get either range into your home.

If you've ever sat on a Windsor Sofa or an Oakland Sofa, you already know what we're talking about. These two ranges were the sofas our customers came back for year after year — not because we told them to, but because they actually loved them. The kind of sofas that turn up in living rooms across the country and simply stay there, looking great and feeling better, long after cheaper alternatives have been replaced.

For over 12 years, the Windsor and Oakland collections were the backbone of what we do at LSW Sofas. Supply issues forced us to pause both ranges around 18 months ago — and while we never stopped believing in them, we also refused to bring them back at anything less than the quality our customers have always expected. We're ready. They're back. And we've made them better.

"We wouldn't bring the Windsor or Oakland back until we were 100% certain the quality matched what our customers always knew. It does. We'd stake our reputation on it — and we are."


The Windsor Range

The Windsor Sofa Is Back — and Every Variant You Loved With It

The Windsor Sofa has always been one of those pieces that photographs well and lives even better. Its clean lines and classic proportions work in a modern flat in London or a period home in Edinburgh just as well as they do in a family living room in Manchester or Birmingham. That timelessness is exactly why it sold so consistently for so long — and why we're so pleased to bring the full range back.

The returning Windsor collection covers everything customers have been asking about since we paused it. Whether you're looking for a Windsor Chesterfield Sofa with its distinctive tufted back and rolled arms, a classic Windsor 3 Seater or Windsor 2 Seater as a standalone statement piece, or a Windsor Corner Sofa to make the most of a larger room, the full width of the range is available again from day one.

We've also seen consistent demand for both fabric colourways, so we're bringing both back in full. The Windsor Grey Fabric Sofa remains one of the most versatile choices we've ever stocked — grey works with virtually any interior scheme and holds its look superbly over time. Equally, the Windsor Stone Fabric Sofa has always attracted customers who want something just a touch warmer and more relaxed in tone, and it's back exactly as it always was.

Chairs are back too. The Windsor Grey Chair and Windsor Stone Chair are ideal companions to any Windsor sofa configuration, or they stand perfectly well as accent chairs in their own right. Matching your seating across a room has never been more straightforward.

Windsor Chesterfield Sofa

The full Chesterfield treatment — deep button tufting, rolled arms, and that unmistakable silhouette. One of our most requested returns.

Windsor Corner Sofa

Maximise your living space with the Windsor Corner — available in grey fabric and stone fabric to suit any interior.

Windsor Grey Fabric Sofa

The perennial bestseller. Windsor Grey is clean, contemporary, and works with virtually any colour scheme.

Windsor Stone Fabric Sofa

Warm, relaxed and effortlessly liveable. Windsor Stone brings a natural softness that looks at home in any setting.

Windsor Grey Chair

The perfect companion to any Windsor sofa — or a standalone accent chair for a reading nook, bedroom, or study.

Windsor Stone Chair

Match your Windsor Stone Sofa or use independently. The same quality construction, just beautifully scaled down.


The Oakland Range

The Oakland Sofa Returns — Tan, Charcoal, 2 Seater, 3 Seater, Corner and More

Where the Windsor leans classic, the Oakland Sofa has always had a more relaxed, lived-in feel. It's the range that customers in Leeds, Sheffield, Liverpool and Bristol fell for because it felt genuinely comfortable the moment you sat down — and still looked great three or four years later. We missed selling the Oakland. A lot. And everything that made it so popular is intact.

The Oakland range returns with its two defining colourways fully reinstated. The Oakland Tan Sofa was consistently one of our top sellers — that warm, cognac-adjacent tone brings real depth and character to a room, and it's back in both the standard sofa format and as an Oakland Tan Corner Sofa for those who want to go all in on the layout. For customers who prefer something more contemporary and versatile, the Oakland Charcoal Sofa is back alongside the Oakland Charcoal Corner Sofa, offering the same exceptional build in a shade that works with almost any interior.

As with the Windsor range, we're bringing back the full Oakland size lineup. The Oakland 2 Seater Sofa suits smaller rooms, apartments, or anyone who wants a quality sofa without overwhelming the space. The Oakland 3 Seater Sofa is the most popular configuration for family living rooms. And the Oakland Corner Sofa — available in both tan and charcoal — gives you everything: generous seating, striking presence, and every bit of Oakland's signature comfort.

Oakland Tan Sofa

Warm, characterful and deeply inviting. The Oakland Tan is available as a 2 seater, 3 seater and corner configuration.

Oakland Charcoal Sofa

Contemporary, versatile and effortlessly stylish. Oakland Charcoal is one of the most popular fabric tones we've ever stocked.

Oakland 2 Seater Sofa

Available in both Tan and Charcoal. Ideal for apartments, smaller living rooms, or as a second sofa alongside a corner unit.

Oakland 3 Seater Sofa

The family favourite. Available in Tan and Charcoal, the Oakland 3 Seater is the go-to choice for a central living room piece.

Oakland Tan Corner Sofa

The full Oakland Tan experience in a generous corner format. Makes a statement in any room and never fails to impress in person.

Oakland Charcoal Corner Sofa

Substantial, striking and surprisingly versatile. The Oakland Charcoal Corner is one of our most anticipated returns.


What's New For Both Ranges

Choose Your Own Comfort: Soft, Medium or Firm Foam

This is new for both the Windsor and Oakland collections, and it's something customers have been asking about for years. Every sofa — every Windsor Sofa, every Oakland Sofa, every chair — now comes with your choice of seat foam density. You pick, we build it that way.

Soft

A luxurious, sink-in feel. Ideal if you love that wrapped, cushioned comfort at the end of the day.

Firm

A supportive, upright seat. Great for posture and a longer-lasting feel over time.

This matters more than many people realise. Foam grade directly affects how a sofa feels over years of daily use, not just on the day it's delivered. We've always used quality foam across both ranges — now you can specify the density that's right for how you actually live. Whether you're ordering a Windsor Stone Chair for a quiet corner or an Oakland Tan Corner Sofa for the main family room, your foam preference is built in at the order stage.

5-Year Insurance. Under £50. Because We Back Every Sofa We Sell.

We've always stood behind the Windsor and Oakland ranges. Twelve years of sales with a customer base that kept coming back is the clearest evidence of that. So when we say we're 100% confident in the quality of every sofa returning to our range, that's not a marketing line — it's a statement we're prepared to put a number to.

A comprehensive 5-year insurance package is available with every Windsor and Oakland sofa for under £50. That's five years of protection — accidental damage, structural cover, genuine peace of mind — for less than £10 a year. The reason we can offer it at that price is simple: we don't expect you to need it. But we want you to have it anyway.

Free UK Delivery. Assembly from £25. Nothing Hidden.

Every Windsor and Oakland sofa is delivered to your door completely free, anywhere in the UK. Whether you're in Newcastle or Plymouth, Cardiff or Glasgow, Nottingham or Southampton — free delivery is exactly that. No postcode surcharges, no fuel supplements, no surprises at the checkout.

Why LSW Sofas? Because We've Sold These for 12 Years and We Know Them Inside Out.

We're not a warehouse clearance site. We're not a dropshipper. We're not the kind of operation that photographs a £400 sofa against a white background and ships it in five flat-pack boxes from an overseas factory. The Windsor and Oakland ranges are sofas we have genuinely sold, genuinely backed, and genuinely believed in for over a decade — and that experience matters when you're making a significant purchase for your home.

The UK sofa market is full of options that look the part in a product image and fall short within a couple of years. The Windsor and Oakland ranges are simply not that. The construction, the materials, the quality of foam — it's all at a standard we're prepared to put our name to and back up with five years of insurance and a direct line to our team if anything isn't right.

Frequently Asked Questions — Windsor & Oakland Sofas

Are all Windsor and Oakland variants available now?

Yes. The Windsor Chesterfield Sofa, Windsor Corner Sofa, Windsor Grey Fabric Sofa, Windsor Stone Fabric Sofa, Windsor Grey Chair, Windsor Stone Chair, Oakland Tan Sofa, Oakland Charcoal Sofa, Oakland 2 Seater, Oakland 3 Seater, Oakland Tan Corner Sofa and Oakland Charcoal Corner Sofa are all available to order. If you have a query about a specific configuration, call us or get in touch and we'll confirm availability.

Why did the Windsor and Oakland ranges disappear?

Supply constraints beyond our control forced us to pause both ranges around 18 months ago. We used that time carefully — we didn't want to bring either range back until we were completely confident the quality matched what our customers had always known. That point has arrived.

Can I choose my foam density on any Windsor or Oakland sofa?

Yes — Soft, Medium or Firm is available on every sofa and chair across both ranges. Simply let us know your preference when you order. If you're not sure, our Medium grade suits the majority of customers and households well, and we're always happy to talk it through.

Is the introductory price available for long?

We've launched both ranges back at an introductory price to give as many customers as possible the chance to order at the best possible rate. This pricing won't stay in place indefinitely. If you've been thinking about a Windsor or Oakland sofa, now is the right time to order.

Can I visit your showroom to see the Windsor or Oakland in person?

Yes — we're based in Carlisle, Cumbria at Unit 3, Atlas Works, Nelson Street, CA2 5NB. If you can get to us, we'd always recommend seeing and sitting on a sofa before you commit. There's nothing quite like it.

What does the 5-year insurance actually cover?

The insurance package provides comprehensive cover including accidental damage and structural issues for five full years from delivery. Full terms are available at the point of purchase. For under £50 across a five-year period, it's one of the best-value add-ons we've ever been able to offer.
