Great company, wide range of sewing products

I ordered a beautiful Necchi machine (with assorted free accessories) at a very competitive price and paid extra for a Saturday delivery. There was a mixup with the courier causing delay and mis delivery. When I contacted HobbySew they responded immediately and also gave me a small refund as s gesture of goodwill. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for a new sewing machine.

Janome 8050

I placed my order, which arrived promptly as said with free gifts of scissors and threads, there was a problem with part of the order, due to the telephone staff giving misleading information on free gift of extra feet on offer.
I phoned Jason to complain, and he apologised and the problem was quickly rectified and correct item promised was received.
I was pleased with machine, and thought it very good value for money.

Great purchase, excellent service

I bought a sewing machine on a discounted price and I was very pleased with the product- was looking for a very good sewing machine and chose an Alicia 66 instead of a Janone/ Brother and to my surprise I was very pleased with my purchase. The order came quickly and I was kept informed about the delivery. Would recommend the company to anyone.

Rude

UPDATE: ONE OF THEIR PHONE NUMBERS HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED. The other is not receiving calls.
They sent the wrong product, even though we cancelled.
Still no refund, no contact at all!

Original:
Placed an order, and was told delivery would be within 2-3 days.
Called a week later and was told to ring back.
Called again, placed on hold three times.
Finally told rudely and without apology it's two weeks for delivery from the manufacturer.

They have ignored emails and phone calls for refunds.
They also tried to have this review removed, flagging it.

Great customerservice!

Had a bit of an iffy start as my machine took a while to arrive. The chairman called me personally to sort out issues and another machine was sent out that day. Very happy with how they handled my complaint which was down to the courier (they send the 2nd out with a different company) And would definitely use this company again. Can't wait to start making sugar glider pouches and toys!
