We ordered 2 garden gates, which are reasonable quality for the price. I didn't get an email to say when they were being delivered which was disappointing, but they arrived 5 days after ordering.

The pergola is of superb quality. Instructions Not!

The pergola is of superb quality and we are delighted with it and the speed of delivery.

The instructions are atrocious and caused additional work as wrong screw bolts used due to their being two lots labelled the same (M6 x 15) but being different bolts!

Why they can’t have a video showing step by step instruction is beyond me.

This is why 4 stars and not 5

Dear Robert Morgans, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you’re pleased with the quality of the pergola and the speed of delivery.

We’re sorry that you found the instructions difficult to follow, particularly with the two sets of M6 x 15 bolts causing confusion during assembly. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and will pass your feedback on to our product team for review. We’ll also take your suggestion regarding step-by-step video instructions into consideration.

Thank you again for your feedback and for choosing us.

Don’t waste your money or your time with this outfit

I ordered a small cast iron bbq from this outfit and it was delivered inside a cardboard box with no protection . It arrived with parts broken off it . Someone had made a small hole in the top of the box to look at the damage before it was delivered to me .
I contacted the company on two different email addresses with photos of the box and damage and I received this response and I have followed up 2 times and no further response .

No goods received, cash returned.

Delivery failed ( twice ) and was RTS.

The item was out of stock when enquired about a new delivery date.

Cash was swiftly returned. Correspondence was good from the seller. I think using a different courier would benefit the seller.

Review on flat-pack shed

We were amazed how quickly the shed was delivered. I thought that the instructions that accompanied the shed were very good and all parts were labelled very well and correlated well to the instructions. To put in context, I am more 'have a go' type person and I was able to put the shed together. Three tips, 1) check you have all parts before you start, 2) read the instructions cover to cover and 3) spend time on getting the doors correct - that the fiddliest bit for me.

Do not buy anything from this seller, if you have an issue with your order there is 0 communication from the seller.
I've had to force a chargeback due to an undelivered item and their non-existant customer service.

I love the product which was a second order of the same thing because I found it useful. I had need of customer service which was very kind and attentive. I just wish they wouldn’t use Evri as a courier in my area. But I’m very happy with Garden Sanctuary themselves.

This hob cover/chopping board is ideal for protecting my induction hob. There are different types available but I wanted something a bit different. This bamboo cover was the exact size I needed.
Solidly constructed and well finished. The four pads on the base stops any movement.
