20% off plants, but poor stock of other things
Another visit to Harlow Homebase. 20% off plants was worthwhile, but still very limited stocks of other things, so did not get everything I wanted. Long queue at only cash desk that was open, but staff member (Susan) was very friendly and helpful. This store gives the impression that it is being run down and about to close, which would be a real shame. In the past it was much better stocked and a more attractive place to shop.

Susan my sales assistant (095740) was simply a delight. She really helped with my query. Then made idol chit chat which really made my day. I don't want having the best of days and she just made things so much better with giving me her time.

Orders two items from Homebase, computer said three in stock, got a phone call from Homebase to say only have one but, a Manager was going to another branch and will pick one up from them, So the two items will be in couple of days.
Very polite on the phone , explained everything to me, apologize for the delay, when I picked up the items ,it was from the young lady who phoned.
Great customer service, don't often receive it anymore, well done to Leanne
The store is always clean
The store is always clean, tidy and there is sufficient staff to help with queries. The staff are always friendly and polite. I was served by Lisa who was polite, friendly and helpful. It is nice to see a happy face.
Great Customer Service
I rang the store to ask if they had 4 particular plant pots in stock. Susan sent someone to check and then put them by the counter for me on a trolley. When I arrived I took a trolley in with me. Susan said to leave that and someone would put it back so I could take the resdy loaded trolley. I also asked if they sold another item, and was directed clearly to where it was. Susan was very helpful and friendly.
Fantastic Staff
The staff at Sainsbury’s Homebase are always so helpful. Denice especially was great today - thank you
