Which are the most popular styles? We have found recently that Charlotte, Majorca, Kim and Dune are very good sellers. Charlotte in particular, is our No.1 by far.


Have you recommended the brand to other retailers? Yes, with confidence.


Please tell about the service you receive from the manufacturer? We have a good working relationship with Lunar, which stems from their professional approach to business. The manner in which they conduct themselves has been first class from back office staff to their sales representatives.
