Didn’t get the complete order. Rang customer service didn’t realise it was a call centre based in a different country. Very hard to understand the conversation. Item was to be here on March 12. Still waiting on refund.

Absolutely woeful delivery service

Absolutely woeful delivery service. Placed an order a 9 days ago, still yet to get the items delivered.

The delivery person came to the door, waited 30 secs and before I could come downstairs tried to leave, apparently because i hadn't answered the door fast enough. He claimed he couldn't deliver the items as he had "closed" the delivery option (whatever that meant) in his tracking app.

Still waiting for another delivery attempt despite being promised a maximum wait of 48hrs (4 days ago).

Now the customer services are claiming it will take 2 more days, as there are still missing items to be delivered from the depot to the delivery firm

Nearly 3 months waiting for…

Nearly 3 months waiting for paintbrushes and sheets. Left up to 8 enquiries about the order's status. Had to threaten with the small claims court and link to a citizen's information page on deliveries to finally get a refund.

IF THEY DON'T DELIVER AFTER 2+ WEEKS APPLY FOR CASHBACK FROM YOUR BANK - DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME CONTACTING THEM.

Ordered a kitchen and it arrived on the date it was supposed to within 5 weeks, the main reason I am giving 5 stars is that all the correct parts were included and correct sizes witbout damage, for over 100 items. The design on the kitchen was helpful in store and the quality of the doors is fine.

I had ordered Imandra bathroom furniture in December 2025. Later bq contacted me to tell it is out of stock and i need to wait. I agreed to wait. Finaly it was delivered in February 2026 with one piece of furniture missing. Was told by customer service the picture and description of furniture on BQ site was incorrect. ??? Thought ok mistakes happen but still will get a missing piece. Finaly after a long wait of customer service response found out i will not. So i have to return it or keep it as it is. It is on the wall in my bathroom already and I paid for fitting it while waiting for their response. So very very disapointed and would not recomend or pls think twice before buying from there.

5 star service from Maurice!

Couldn’t recommend Maurice higher for a kitchen design. We’re moving to a new build house in Waterford and a local luxury designer brand were the recommended vendor for our development. After meeting with the luxury designer we decided it wasn’t for us and we shopped around. We went to Maurice with a slight idea of design in mind and with Maurice’s help we ended up with even more than we could have imagined. From the perfect aesthetic for our chosen style to smart storage and effortless flow through the kitchen, Maurice helped us create our ideal and dream kitchen. Even when it came to some hiccups with the install, which had absolutely nothing to even do with Maurice, he still had everything resolved within days for us. He answered all of our questions and gave us plenty of options to expand our vision, without overwhelming us. He was always in a fantastic mood, he was great craic and so easy to chat with. A complete gentleman who’s fantastic at what he does. Super grateful for him!
