While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Disappointed to find that after visiting your outlet in Castleford and requesting a length of cable (in your catalogue) I STILL had to pay a delivery fee to have the item collected at the store.

Product ordered as a guest log in but it was easy to do. I was told I would receive a message when the item arrived but I didn't. However I called the store and they were really helpful. It had arrived. I collected within the hour from lovely friendly staff. The item, a tool bag, was just what I ordered and I now have one happy partner.

Trotec air cooling fan

I purchased a fan from this company. It does everything and more it’s fantastic I would recommend it. The picture on the website does really allow you to see how big it is. It’s huge and really does keep my living room cool and Aired.

I cant Express how grateful we are to the guys at the Ashfley estate CEF. They literally saved our bacon. Unfortunately I left the motor home cable at home...yes lots of interesting words on route trying to find a cable & not miss our ferry! These guys literally made a cable up, Robert harry and a loyal customer from o CFF called Simon. Absolutely cant thank you enough for what you all did. My knights in shinning armour. A absolute massive thank you 👍 alison & david on now a much needed vacation from our NHS day jobs 😊
