Information provided by various external sources

We started The Wool Company making socks from kid mohair, the fleece shorn from baby Angora goats, but soon realised that there was a serious shortage of supply of high quality natural wool products of many kinds and started to develop our range. As well as selling to retail customers online we supply a number of corporate customers including world wide hotel chains, boutiques, stores, boutique hotels, breweries chains etc. Our wholesale division is relatively small but growing well, we now have excellent wholesale clients in the UK and abroad. At The Wool Company we have always felt that the the use of natural fibres for bedding and clothing is better in every way than petrochemical products and it is our mission to share our belief with the rest of the world that cares to listen. Our watchword is Quality: we source as many of our products as we can from the UK and most of our suppliers make their products in Britain and our famous sheepskins are mostly from Devon and Cornwall, but we also like to think that we supply the very best quality wool products from around the world so you can be confident that whatever you buy from us is of superb quality. We don't favour inferior UK products over better products from abroad. The Wool Company's priorities: High Quality ...... Value for Money ...... Local Sourcing. - Because of our low overheads you can also be confident of getting real value for money from us: you may be able to buy cheaper elsewhere but we don't believe you will get the same quality for the price! We are still a small company; the whole family gets involved in one way or another (our children have all helped with product testing, modelling, gift wrapping, packing and stock-taking and even art direction!) and, when the children are at school, our team totals eight. So if you contact us you will know you're getting a real personal service! Copyright © The Wool Company Higher Hill Farm, Cardinham, Bodmin, Cornwall, PL30 4EG

Dear Lesley
I’m very sorry for the inconvenience you’re having with this order. We always appreciate honest customer feedback, even if it is not wholly positive. I tried to phone you twice earlier today, but there was no answer and no voicemail box.

According to our records, your order was placed for the wrong item in error (the grey instead of the soft pink that you want). We did send you an order confirmation email yesterday at 16:38, just after you placed your order, detailing the "Merino Cashmere Blend Throw Light Grey Herringbone”, as ordered.
First thing this morning, we checked our emails for any updates to orders placed yesterday. Later this morning from 09:15 to 09:33, the order was picked, packed and processed. We then emailed you the dispatch confirmation at 09:34. This email contained the same item details as on the order confirmation email.

Between 10:27 and 12:33 we received 8 emails from you, replying to our order confirmation and dispatch emails (all of which detail the grey blanket ordered).

Your emails are (understandably) increasingly frustrated and desperate and angry. I'm very sorry for this. Sadly, however, the first email was too late, as we had already fulfilled and dispatched your order before your first email. We attempted to retrieve the parcel from the Royal Mail postage bags/pallets, but unfortunately it was already too late.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused, and are very happy to exchange the 'grey' throw you ordered for the 'soft pink' in due course.

Exchanging an item is easy. Please use our returns portal as detailed in the email I sent you, follow our normal exchange process, and we will send you the blanket you wanted. (We do currently have a few in stock). Since you chose the free delivery option you ordr should arrive in the next couple of days via Royal Mail Tracked 48. I should also add that the two items are of identical quality; the only difference is the colour.

Please note for future reference that we do have a delayed order confirmation system in our checkout which allows customers to edit orders for a period after they have been placed. This allows for errors like wrong items or address details, made during the ordering process, to be corrected.

We are delighted that you chose to buy from a local company that works hard to select quality products made in the UK or Ireland where possible. I can only apologise again for the inconvenience and hope that you will be happy with the soft pink merino cashmere blend throw if you decide to exchange the grey one for it.

Blue sheepskin rug

Ordered a small seconds sheepskin rug. Arrived quickly and well packaged. Lovely little rug, small yes, but perfect for what I wanted it for. And a beautiful blue. Would purchase from this company again

Superior quality products

Back in 2018 I ordered a wool blanket from this company and it is still beautiful and in mint condition ten years on. I recently ordered a sheepskin, dove grey for my disabled husband to sit on. He said it was wonderful, soft and eased his back like nothing else has. The company delivers what they say and their products are world class.

Still no order received nor response or anything - possible scam

I purchased a merino blanket that cost over £200 from this company. This was 10 days ago and not only I have not received the item, I am still waiting for it to be dispatched. On top of that I emailed them querying about this and no response received. Same over the website chat, no response. I’m now starting to reach over their social media until I get a response from them. This company so far seems to be a scam to me so I would not purchase from them.

Merino Wool Mattress Topper - TOTALLY FABULOUS!!!

Well- all I can say is that the Merino Wool Mattress Topper ought to be MANDATORY for all and everyone!!! It is truly remarkable- amazing- miraculous - and any other superlatives I can think of. I recently had a shoulder operation and found it hard to sleep - but even before that I would toss and turn a lot - either too hot or too cold … or just plain uncomfortable ( I am in my late 70’s so quite a few aches and pains) anyway- this beautiful item arrived - the double Merino Wool Mattress Topper- and for the first time in years I slept all night long- perfect temperature- perfect softness and comfort. Absolutely DELICIOUS.
I have one serious complaint however…
I don’t want to get up out of bed - and when I do manage to, I can hardly wait to get back. ( that’s two complaints in fact)
So - don’t hesitate one moment before buying this - it is truly life changing. I can’t believe I had to wait all these years before getting one.
If you are young or have babies- get one for everybody in the family - children included!.

Thanks for taking the time to review your purchase and we're absolutely thrilled you're sleeping better as a result of the mattress topper. These mattress toppers have been a firm favourite of ours for over 15 years now! We've even had a customer saying it cured her husband's restless leg. All the more reason to stay in bed!

Eileen was fab

Eileen was fab, answered all my questions quickly, I purchased the car seat cover and it does not disappoint, it’s a light cream colour so goes well with the beige interior in the Volvo, soft, warm, doesn’t slide around, does not shed at all, which a concern of mine.
Delivery stayed 3-10 days but mine arrived in a day.

Great shoes deserve great socks!!!

I recently ordered a pair of shoes from Herring Shoes, beautifully made and supremely comfortable. The only thing that let the look down a little was my socks! Then I found The Wool Company. On offer there they have everyday mens 100% silk socks, ok at £11.00 a pair they are not cheap but the shoes were quite expensive so why not? I ordered a pair and in just a couple of days they arrived. Do socks really make that much of a difference to your shoes and how you feel wearing them? Oh yes! The socks are so comfortable and look amazing too. The customer service at The Wool Company is professional and friendly and coupled with Royal Mail Tracked Delivery, your order arrives safe and on time. Just heading back to The Wool Company web site to order more silk socks! Brian B

First purchase and won’t be the last. Fab products.

I found the website by chance and liked the rose gold merino & silk shawl to go with a silk dress for a wedding. The colour was out of stock but a “second” was offered at a greatly reduced price. I ordered it, not knowing what to expect and am absolutely thrilled with it. I’ve no idea why it’s a second, there’s nothing visibly wrong with it. The quality of the fabric is exceptional, I’m already eyeing up other products as Xmas gifts.

Web Images Inaccurate — but high quality goods

I purchased the Emilie Double-Faced Wool Blanket in lavender — but soon discovered that the colour represented online is very different from that of the actual product. You'll see that the image shows a blue-based lilac, with a dove-grey underside. In reality the blanket has a warm, tan/beige underside, edging that is also beige, and the lavender is a puce-pink — a much warmer colour. I know screen settings can alter the colours slightly, but this was such a dramatic difference that for a moment I thought they'd simply sent me the wrong colourway.

There's also some confusion about the sizing. The Italian company that make these blankets, Lanerossi, who I assume sell on through The Wool Company, list a single as 160cm x 220cm, but The Wool Company call their 'Single' the 180cm x 210cm — which is what Lanerossi deem a double.

The quality is terrific, and though the returns process took ten days (and is done at the customer's own expense), I think I'd buy from this company again. I'd probably call up the store and ask to be shown the product on video-call: I don't feel confident that the web platform really shows what you're getting, and it's a bit of a trial to lug blanket-boxes to and fro from the post office, having risked it.

Excellent service and beautiful…

Excellent service and beautiful product. I ordered a baby shawl for a baptism, this arrived very quickly. The shawl itself is gorgeous, so soft and beautifully made. It is absolutely perfect. Customer service was excellent as well as I made an error in my delivery information which was rectified immediately by the team. Thank you!

Five stars to this closenit family…

Five stars to this closenit family company with exceptional customer services. First time placing an order and from the customer service representative on the phone to the personal touch email from the co-founder made me feel like a valued customer unlike some other brands that are profit driven and couldn’t care about their customers.

I purchased the ‘ Quilted Wool Pillow Protector and it exceeded my expectations. It looks & feels padded and will extend the life of any pillow. I bought to use with my wool pillow. It differs slightly online but looks much better in person. I will be sure to purchase another set.

Thanks Wool company,
Warm Regards

Beware inaccurate sizing and no postage refund

After Falke discontinued my favourite silk socks, I ordered two pairs of silk socks from The Wool Company. They were sold and labelled as size 3-7 (I’m a size 4). When they arrived I could see that one pair was too large, but had to open the others to find out that they were also too big. I tried one on: it was loose and sagging on my foot and wouldn’t stay up on my ankle. I emailed to let the company know the issue, but when I returned the socks they didn’t refund me the £5 postage I’d paid. I don’t think this was fair given that the sizing was misleading. So I’ve wasted £5 and a lot of time. Won’t be using again.

YOU DESERVE A MENTION

I use a lot of wool felt for my small textile gift business. I can always rely on the wool felt company for QUALITY felt. Also love the stars and hearts for spacers on Bunting. Amazingly quick delivery and well packaged too.
