I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!
I ordered the Nespresso Gran Lattissima from Coffee Friend, and the whole experience was excellent. The delivery was incredibly fast, everything was packaged perfectly. The machine arrived in perfect condition, and they even included a high quality UK adapter for the European plug. Thanks to Coffee Friend, I was able to buy the machine at a much better price than elsewhere without compromising on service. I would definitely recommend them and wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.
Good price, lovely machine but not tried out yet. Delivery info not accurate on date originally given. Well packed but euro to UK electrical socket converter damaged before packing (as damaged piece of plastic nowhere to be found inside).
Placed an order 10 days ago and still haven’t received it. No communication at all

Bought a toaster and a kettle off coffee friend, after 2 weeks the toaster broke down so I contacted coffee friend for instructions for a refund.
Informed I needed to send a video of the faulty toaster showing it was not working,i explained I was not computer savvy and wanted to send it back for a refund.They replied on insisting I send a video before considering next step. Had to ask a friend to help me send the video to which coffee friend then replied would I like a replacement ,no mention of a refund . Only when I replied again they finally issued a refund.As for the toaster itself (chiato) nearly £60 its no better than a £20 one from Asda .As you guessed won't be using coffee friend again

Very fast delivery! Well packaged and wonderful high quality items.
Fast, easy and cheap. I was greatly pleased with the product, delivery and service.
Thank you!
Always been great when I've ordered, a very efficient online process, quick delivery in reliable and recyclable packaging and competitive pricing.
The quickness of the delivery from ordering was excellent and the goods were well packaged. It was with us in two days.
A great choice of coffee beans at a very good price. Excellent delivery. I was recommended this company by a relative and I would certainly pass this recommendation on.
The delivery took over double the expected delivery window and while they did respond to the emails they did not explain why my order was delayed.
Also the coffee machine came with a a two pin plug and uk adapter, which was not clear when I ordered and it makes the plug slot more bulky.

I have used coffee friend in the past and had no issues but when an issue does arise, how the company handles this is a true reflection of them in the long term to develop customer loyalty.
As mentioned I have ordered from them in the past and had the order delivered with no problems.
My last order I got the delivery notification from Royal Mail and noticed in the picture that it wasn’t my property. I immediately called coffee friend who said they would email me a form.
No form arrived but instead I was told that I need to wait 7 working days before they can put a claim into Royal Mail.
In the meantime I contacted Royal Mail who stated that the gps tracking doesn’t match up so she would put through a retrieval request to the local office for redelivery. This failed so she gave me a case number to pass over to coffee friend as ultimately they are responsible for resolving this swiftly.
I passed over this information and was told I still needed to wait the 7 working days.
This has passed and I have been told that now it could be another 30 days (which I believe to be an unreasonable amount of time) and what they will do about it will be based on what the courier says (which would be against their legal obligation to ensure the delivery of paid goods as my contact is with them and not Royal Mail).
Hopefully they will review their process as this is very anti consumer and if they do state they won’t do anything then I’ll have to take it up with my credit card provider but hopefully it doesn’t come to that.
If there is a swift update from coffee friend that changes my experience then I will of course update.
However I think it is in the interest of others to see how this company handles things going wrong.
