It's so easy to put up and the foal, who is only two weeks old, can't hurt herself on it, even though she has already chewed it and stepped on it, she hasn't done herself or the fence any harm. Great... See more

Best Price, Quick Service

Hobuk supplied the latest model Makita leaf leaf blower at the cheapest price and a quick delivery as promised! Indeed they blew the competition out of the market!

Not next day delivery, waited a further three

Ordered £123 worth of products on a next day delivery promise. My wife waited in at home all day the following day but the delivery was not received. I contacted HobUK and was told the delivery was lost so they will send another out. This seemed to take a further three days but finally received. Despite the inconvenience HobUK did not offer anything as compensation other than an appolgoy.

The products were all as described and were well packaged.

Rapid delivery of good value product

Hobuk listed the lowest price for the Makita BHX2501 blower. Carriage was also free. Delivery was very quick, the machine arrived in good condition and has since proved very useful - a good quality machine.

Blown away

Ordered one of the Makita 4 stroke leaf blowers from Hobuk first thing on Monday Morning. They had the cheapest price I could find on the net. It arrived Tuesday Morning. Hobuk did exactly what they said they would. Would I use them again? Definitely!

The Makita leaf blower is also brilliant, streets ahead of my late two stroke one. The whole package blew me and the leaves away!!!

Hobuk great service - but delivery service poor

Hobuk dispatched the leafblower smartly to UKMail so that the 24 hour delivery could be met as advertised. UkMail failed to deliver the next day, or the day after - with no contact to me as to why there were delays (two days waiting at home to sign for the product). I had phoned UKMail on the second day and was assured that delivery would occur that day. On the third day I contacted UKMail to get them to hold the product at the UKMail depot. Despite these instructions the product was delivered to my home (fortunately someone was at home at that time as I could not stay at home any longer).
Hobuk - great service - but let down by poor service by UKMail (delays and lack of communication)
