Went to look around out local MFI whilst out and about. It was their final 'closing down' clearance today. Pretty sad to see everything being stripped out and sold off. They were evening selling their coffee machine and the seats from the staff room.

No wonder!

MFI has been criticised for the excessive frequency and length of its sales. In a six month survey by consumer magazine Which? it emerged that 4 out of 5 kitchens in the "sale" had never actually been sold at the higher price against which the discount claims were being made. Which? stated that "MFI's pricing policy deceives its customers into thinking they are getting a better deal than they are. In some cases, its pricing is downright misleading". MFI's advertising of such sales also came in for criticism for using phrases such as "Hurry! Only four days left" or "Prices too good to last" even though a new sale would almost always be launched immediately afterwards.

MFI is also known for being one of the first ever companies to be investigated by the BBC programme "Watchdog". The programme attempted to buy a £600 kitchen advertised by MFI, though the advert was misleading and the price only actually included kitchen units but not the appliances shown.
