Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the high quality of the products, noting their sturdiness and durability, which many believe will provide years of enjoyment. The website is frequently highlighted for being user-friendly, easy to navigate, and offering a great selection with clear customization options. Many people also appreciate the excellent communication received throughout the ordering process. However, some customers experienced issues with delivery, citing delays, missing parts, or damaged items upon arrival. While some reviewers noted prompt and well-packaged deliveries, others reported waiting several weeks for their orders, sometimes receiving incomplete or faulty products. A few other people also felt that the quality of some parts was poor, with rough wood or irregular lengths, and that assembly could be unexpectedly complex due to a lack of pre-drilled holes.

Great customer service

Great customer service. Unfortunately we were informed soon after placing our order that the climbing frame we ordered was out of stock. We were offered an alternative climbing frame which was bigger and higher value. We decided to wait for the original climbing frame we ordered (due to size of our garden) but the customer service team were really helpful and happy to help with this.

I was really disappointed with the communication around delivery. For such an expensive purchase it was very anxious for me to not hear anything for weeks and when I had a problem with the courier who did not leave a phone number to return their call to organize delivery Wickey unfortunately we're not massively helpful. Lovely product and the kids love it but i would hesitate using again.

Smart King Climbing Frame

My experience with Wickey was good, after placing my order they kept me updated with delivery schedule, unfortunately it did take over 3 weeks to arrive but apart from the long delivery the product itself is great quality. All parts were there, no damages and the instructions were easy and clear to read. Would definitely recommend!

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS WEBSITE!!

DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM WICKEY!!

A quick scan of the 5* reviews on Trustpilot will reveal that they are quite obviously fake. Take a look at the 1* reviews for the real Wickey customer experience.

3 months ago I ordered the ‘Tower Playhouse Smart Coast House’. The estimated delivery date came and gone and still wasn’t dispatched. I contacted Wickey and they said I had paid (impossible as I paid on the website and had to send them confirmation on my bank statement). Eventually they sent it out and it arrived weeks after they said.

On arrival I unpacked all the wood and to say I was shocked at the quality of the wood would be an understatement! Not only is the wood covered top to bottom in green mould (I know some green can show after pressure treating but this is extreme) but the wood is so poorly cut, warped, wonky, unlevel and has very rough edges. Do they have a quality control process??

I did a stock check of the parts and found multiple missing pieces as well as pieces that I just could not use as they were so bad. I contacted Wickey who said they would send more out (took another few weeks to come).

This is more than a DIY project, Wickey do absolutely nothing but raw cut the timber. You have to pre-drill every single bit and because of the quality of the wood, you have to sand every single inch and corner of every single piece. There is absolutely no excuse as to why they can’t do this as part of the manufacturing process!!

Onto the construction… the assembly instructions are up there with the worst I have ever experienced. The worst part is that on one page they tell you to pre-drill multiple planks of wood for the platform at a specific measurement, then you turn the page and the holes don’t line up with the joists!! This has caused me to have 52 x 3mm holes in the platform. This will not only weaken the structure but also now allow water into the wood!! I raised this issue with Wickey who told me they would raise it with their tech department. I asked to send it back which they denied and offered me a 5% refund!! The cheek of it. The ‘tarpaulin’ decoration you have to cut yourself and looks awful and cheap.

The customer service at Wickey is 100% the worst I have ever dealt with. Most of the time you cannot get through, if you are lucky enough to get through to someone then they just feed you the same lies. I have had upwards of 20 conversations with the CS team and the issues are still not resolved. All they keep saying is they need to speak to a manager and will be in touch. Days pass and I ring again and get the same answer. I am so fed up at this stage the whole process has been horrendous from start to finish. I just want to send it back or get an adequate refund.

FALSE ADVERTISEMENT… and another thing. The ‘water slide attachment’ is absolutely not a water slide attachment. There’s no hole into the slide and if you drilled one it would just squirt upwards. More lies.

I have never left a review in my life but I feel like I have had no choice with this one. Months on and still no solution.

If anyone wants any further evidence of the issues I am talking about, please reach out. I have lots of photos to back up everything stated above.

STAY CLEAR AND DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!!

Order process was grand

Order process was grand, it would be great to avoid the extra delivery fee to Northern Ireland. I had multiple discount codes but the small print meant I missed out on all of them as they didn't apply to the specific products I was buying.

Poor quality/poor service

This review is my based on my experience with this company and its product as delivered and assembled by myself and I am only writing this review as Wickey have failed to address my concerns with just sending me back a generic e mail that had no relation to my concerns.
The decision to go with Wickey was purely financial as their prices were some what cheaper than their competitors and so goes the saying, you get what you pay for. I ordered the Play Fort with wobble bridge and wanted in the green and yellow. I had to pay an extra £15 to have the blue swing seats exchanged for green seats at the factory/depot, their excuse was that this product was already pre wrapped and they would have to unwrap to swop over.
The product took an absolute age to arrive and I had to ask several times when delivery was likely. When the set did arrive it was wrapped in polythene and on unwrapping there was a great deal of moisture on the inside. The checklist was gone through by myself meticulously and all was there apart from one size of slats being longer than described by 4cm (Had to cut these to the correct size as described). The timber was laid out in a dry shaded area with a good flow of air as I could not assemble for a couple of days. When I came to assemble three of the 2.4m posts had warped so badly I had to discard them and by more posts from a builders merchant. Many of the wooden slats had also warped slightly.
So onto assembly, the instructions are poor at best and the measurements of the wood as per the instructions were at least 7mm out than the actual wood itself ( eg wood marked as being 140mm wide is in fact only 133mm wide) this was across all the wood pieces measured. If you look at the website photo of the climbing wall on the Smart Fort you can see that there is a gap at the top of the climbing wall, this is due to incorrect sizing of the timber and that is on their own photo.
The webbing supplied to attach the wobble bridge is a far to short and only allows for eight 20mm screws on each of the four ends to hold the weight of a child on the bridge, This is downright dangerous and a disgrace that it can be allowed to get passed. To make the bridge safe, and once again out of my own pocket, more webbing was bought and secured by myself that made the bridge safe. The play Fort is now assembled but I am far from happy with the product. My advice would be spend a little more and get a product made in this country where components and customer service are hopefully much better.
Unfortunately, German engineering and service at its worst.
