Good quality items and quick to send

Good quality items and quick to deliver. Item (an arbour) was also put together on arrival. Sales emails out of sync a little as received emails about did I want to buy? When I had already purchased. Polite sales team responded to my email with a query. Would recommend

Delivery time too long

Nice product and pleased with price but delivery time was long especially compared to other retailers. So long in fact that I had to contact customer service to chase the order. In my case it took around 7 days from order to dispatch then another 2 days waiting for delivery. Why can’t items be dispatched much more quickly ?

Hello Stuart
Many thanks for taking the time to write a review. We are sorry to see that you only scored us 3 stars.
We sell a really wide range of different products and use different couriers, all delivery lead times are displayed on the product pages, some products are delivered next day delivery and some take longer. We try to be clear on this by displaying this information so that our customers can see it before they order.
We do hope you are pleased with your product.
All the best.

Delivered so quickly!

The best thing was the delivery was arranged very quickly. It saved me time. The country cream stones complimented my existing lay in the garden. All round very good experience with Buttercup Farms.

Give me the wrong advice just to get a sale

I had a very disappointing experience with Buttercup Farm. I spent around £300 based on their advice, only for the product to completely fail and end up in the skip.

They’ve since tried to blame the issue on the small amount of sand and shingle I used, claiming it was too heavy. In reality, it was only a very light sprinkle — far less than what a floating platform designed for something like a duck house would reasonably be expected to support. If anything, a few ducks standing on it would add more weight and it would potentially sink., so there was nothing excessive or incorrect in how it was used.

What’s most frustrating is that when I raised the issue, they refused to take any responsibility. Instead, they claimed I hadn’t asked the “right questions,” which feels like a convenient way of avoiding accountability. As a customer, you rely on a company’s expertise to guide you properly — not to be told afterwards that you should have known better.

Their response also included details that simply aren’t accurate, which makes the situation even more frustrating. Rather than trying to resolve the issue or offer any goodwill, they’ve chosen to shift the blame entirely onto me.

Poor advice, poor aftercare, and a complete lack of accountability. I would not recommend.

Hello Ken,
We emailed you as below because we did not give you wrong advice. We are sorry that you felt this way, but this is not correct.

Hello Ken

Thank you for your email.

I have looked into this for you and we have recorded that we had a phone call with you where you did tell us that you would want to add some wire mesh around the platform, which we thought would be fine as wire is quite light weight. However, you did not ask us if the platform would take the weight of sand and shingle and had you done so, we would have advised against this.


These platforms can take the weight of the duck houses that we sell to go on them, but it seems that you have added excessive weight which we were not aware that you would be doing and this has caused the issue. We can only suggest that you remove the sand and shingle that you have added on top of the floating platform and this will resolve the problem. It is also good to bear in mind that the float is made from pressure treated timber and wood being a natural product, it will absorb water and depending on how much rain, the float will sit higher/lower on the water and it has rained a lot this month so this will also have a bearing on where the float will sit on the water.

I trust this is helpful, but let us know if you need any other help.

Kind regards
Katie
