Excellent Quality Products and Service.

I ordered the Epping Oil Spray and when it arrived I could not get it to work, despite reading the instructions (One criticism, the writing was very small - not easy to read). I telephoned the company and spoke with Phoebe. She immediately sent a video link and I was able to get the Oil Spray to work. I ordered a few other things as well and I am delighted with the quality and speed with which they were dispatched.

Pair of mills look beautiful together

Pair of mills look beautiful together. Impressed that each came with two tops so would work for both salt and pepper.

Whilst the mill works well for salt it has worked less well on peppercorns and sadly I tend to reach for our old mill (also a Coke and Mason) rather than it’s new replacement

Cole & Mason Oslo Salt & Pepper Set

I purchased a Cole & Mason Oslo Salt & Pepper set from John Lewis in November 2023. January 2026 saw the pepper mill mechanism suddenly break. John Lewis couldn’t replace it as they were out of stock and said it came under a ‘written off’ policy so provided me with a gift card for the purchase price which was some £10 less than it would now cost to buy a replacement set. After a few weeks the set was still unavailable at John Lewis on line or in local stores, so I contacted Cole & Mason direct explaining the situation. After a couple of emails with them, including photographic proof of my original John Lewis receipt and that of the subsequent refund, Cole & Mason honoured a replacement Oslo set to me which arrived within a few days (even though I was told it could take up to 10 working days!).

Shout out to Phoebe and the rest of the Cole & Mason Customer Service Team for what I feel was excellent customer service.

Quality products and great service

Exceptional company. We had to contact as failure with the grinder mechanism on our salt mill. Immediate response excellent communication throughout and although our salt mill was no longer available they immediately offered a gift voucher to choose another mill. We chose their latest design and paid extra to have the complete set we also received a matching tray to house the set. The new set is very attractive and has different grades of grind available. We are delighted with our new acquisition. Cole and Mason seem to be one of the few companies who honour their guarantee.

Marvellous Customer Service

I contacted Cole and Mason to enquire if my 30 year old pepper mill could be repaired as it was part of a set. To my delight they replaced it. This is fantastic customer service. Thank you

Guarantee is 100% adhered to

I tried to get the part for my pepper mill but couldn’t find it so decided to let the company know it was broken. Really didn’t expect to have anything done as I’ve had the mill for over 2 years, but, it was very easy to deal with and the lifetime guarantee of the mechanism is true. Made it very easy for me to have a new pepper mill sent out. I’m over the moon as I love the set and didn’t want to part with them. Thank you
