Great range of products, easy website navigation and ordering. Plenty of delivery updates, and spoke with a UK human over the phone who helped with my enquiry. What's not to like 10/10 to Cutwel

A very wide range of cutters.

A very wide range of cutters.
Willing to provide small quantites - 1 or 2 or 3 of a small item.
One item out of stock did not hold up delivery of others.

Thank you for the review. We appreciate you highlighting the range of cutters and the fact that we can supply smaller quantities when needed. It’s also good to hear that the out‑of‑stock item didn’t hold up the rest of your order at the time.

Kind Regards

The communication with the company was very polite, accurate and exceptional. My item was sent out same day and received it the following day. I have no hesitation in recommending this company. Many thanks.

TERRIBLE communication phone lines and…

TERRIBLE communication phone lines and webchat!
The telephone lines kept cutting out, within about 20 seconds, and the webchat was non-existent. PLEASE look at sorting this Cutwell; apparently this is a 'known' problem. That said, the Customer Service colleagues were incredible and endlessly helpful, the website is intuitive and products are fantastic. I would happily give 5 stars if it wasn't for the technical communication problems.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. I can see why you were fed up at the time. Phone lines cutting out and a dead webchat would frustrate anyone, especially when you’re just trying to get a quick update.

It’s good to hear the customer service team were helpful once you got through, and that the website and products themselves hit the mark. I know the technical issues you mentioned were being worked on around then, so hopefully things have been smoother since.

Really appreciate you sharing the full picture.

Poor communication

Thank you for leaving the review. I can see why you were annoyed at the time. When the website says three days, you expect three days, not to be chasing nearly a week later only to find out it hadn’t even been ordered yet. That sort of delay with no clear update is really frustrating.

I know the team will have already dealt with this with you since, but your feedback still helps us tighten things up. Thanks for taking the time to share it.

Kind regards

Lathe tool SCLCR1616H09

Thank you for the great review, we're really glad to hear the price, delivery and overall experience hit the mark for you. Sounds like the tool’s going to be a solid addition to the workshop once you put it to use.

Appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, and thanks again for choosing us.

Fast service but item was in envelope…

Fast service but item was in envelope that was not properly sealed, so thought an item had fallen out. No it did not it had not been sent but was not clear on paperwork

Reply from Cutwel

Thanks for sharing this, I understand why that would’ve worried you. An unsealed envelope and unclear paperwork is never a great first impression, and it’s easy to assume something’s fallen out.

Glad to hear nothing was actually missing, and I know the team will have already helped clear things up since. Really appreciate you flagging it though, it helps us tighten things up for next time.

If anything like this happens again, we’ll always get it sorted quickly.

Kind Regards
