Really happy with the product
Really happy with the product, price and installation service. It arrived on time, was installed with care by polite delivery staff who demonstrated the features and made sure that we were happy before leaving. Excellent all round from a local company.

Thank you for the review. We send an email ourselves once the item has been dispatched.
The item is then collected by a third party courier, the evening before delivery a text message is sent with a 2 hour time slot for delivery and tracking information on a link.
Once delivered the courier then updates the tracking information to show that the item has now arrived.

Everything about delivery fine
Everything about delivery fine, lovely delivery guys. Would be 5 star if your tracking system could be understood, 4 phone calls - incomprehensible followed by 4 emails a day after delivery letting me know it was on its way.

Ordered a freezer
Ordered a freezer, when it was delivered it was difficult to go through front door. Drivers were determined to deliver, they ended up taking freezer door off with a lot of persuasion got it through. They were so helpful and friendly, I had nearly given up on having the freezer, we had ordered one the week before, it was too big to go inside so we reordered very helpful in shop. Drivers were Jason and Warwick, thankyou.

Extremely Concerning and Unsafe Payment Practices
Paid £800+ for an oven by credit card… then got a call asking for MORE money by bank transfer.
My bank immediately warned me this could be fraud and that I’d lose protection under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974.
When I refused? I was told: pay or your order gets cancelled.
Manager didn’t care. No proper explanation. No respect for basic rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
This is NOT normal. This is NOT safe.
Avoid.
Update 14/03/26: I have reported this matter to the Trading Standards Authority.

Thank you for your Trustpilot review, however, it is important that the correct, factual information is recorded.
You were not asked for more money, you were asked to make the payment for the Smeg oven by bank transfer, as per the many emails that we have had, we explained that:
1. We were not delivering the item to London for you, you wanted to send a third party to collect your appliance on your behalf.
2. We do not accept card payments in these circumstances due to the high risk of fraud or chargebacks, as we do not have your details or the details of the third party who would be turning up to our warehouse to collect your new items.
We offered you the opportunity, tat if you were not happy, we would accept a cancellation for the order, as we understood, you may only want to purchase via a card payment, however, our price was the the cheapest in the UK, so you confirmed by email that you wished to go ahead.
You have arranged for the collection of the oven today, following your successful payment yesterday.
As we explained, your rights are not affected through this type of transaction. This is perfectly normal and a practice designed to help protect our customers along with our business.
We hope you enjoy the new oven.
Well done Gillmans
Janine the Sales Advisor was very efficient and pleasant which lead me to purchasing a freezer and a washing machine!
As my husband has been very ill for some months I decided to arrange for the new appliances to be installed and the old appliances taken away, together with all the packaging.
The delivery tracking was great and the service given by Danny and Mike was fantastic.
During this difficult time, it was amazing to find such helpful service, thank you

Product arrived in good time and condition.
Product arrived in good time and in good condition. Very happy with my purchase. Only issue is with the delivery service which left the delivery on my doorstep when I was out without any option to redirect or text or email informing of package delivery. As there are sadly many occasions when parcels have been stolen from doorsteps in my road, I’m lucky that it was still there.
