Is this Cooler too cool for school ?

Just what I wanted in a cooler ... nice size, great looking and a real nice shade of blue. Best of all, it keeps my ice cubes and food items ice cold for hours and hours. Works even better with the optional Freez Packs, which are available in three different sizes ... and, although you can use any of these options, a couple of the mid size packs would be the best fit.

This 17-litre cooler is solid, spacious and well build, and should last you countless years with normal wear and tear. You know you want one, so go order one today.

Good service and great price from Best Buys ... and delivery was top class as well. I would not hesitate to use this Company again.

Saved the day

Ordered the wife's birthday present and would you believe on of the items was the wrong shape. Emailed them. Got a call the next day apologising and the day after the correct item arrived. Result

Good

Service was excellent, well wrapped and in good condition ( not used yet) would have got excellent rating if it wasn't for the fact it wasn't delivered on the day that courier had said ( there had been a mix up) so had to wait in two days.

really quick delivery

4 tents arrived so quickly that I decided to order 4 more - and £30 each cheaper than anywhere else. That's accommodation for 32 scouts sorted!

Definitely one to shop with again

Bought a set of camping chairs, no defects or problems with them and much cheaper than any other seller. Shipped within a day and arrived well packaged. I'll definitely shop here again.

Excellent service, brilliant price

I bought a Vango Ark 400 tent from Bestbuys and was delighted with the price which came in £20 cheaper even after adding the £5.99 postage cost. I the tents great having already bought one for my eldest daughter, who loves home easy it is to put up - it really does only take 5 minutes to erect the tent and abit longer to secure the guy ropes. She loves how spacious it is for camping with friends.

Very helpful and efficent

Unfortunately the item I ordered from Bestbuy was not in stock. Bestbuy contacted me and ran through other alternative options, even adding products to the website so I could view them whilst speaking on the phone. My replacement order was delivered the next day. The service was excellent!

Fantastic!

Our ordering process was easy and the confirmation email I received was clear and informative. The bright pink junior vango nitestar sleeping bag we bought was a great price with reasonable delivery charge, and my 2 and half year old loved it so much she wouldn't get out of it and wanted to sleep on the living room floor in it!
