I bought this due to my old, heavy, towel dressing gown becoming thin and getting holes after 20 years of wear and tear. I find this is far superior to my old flat toweling gown as it's 420 gsm, tr... See more

Brilliant customer service

There was a slight hiccup with my order, which I don't think was of your making, and I have to say, the way out was dealt with was beyond expectations. There are many other companies that could take a leaf out of you customer-relations book.

Came on time

Came on time, no problem with delivery, was very rough, not as white as I’d expected, a bit yellow, a little bit underwhelmed. I should have paid more to get the one I really wanted.

Good Customer Service

I had a query and telephoned. I spoke to Morgan who was incredibly helpful and I was able to order what I needed. It is so good to be able to talk to someone direct rather than have to go on a website.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review.

We are sincerely sorry that the sizes of the bathrobes were not as expected; and our quality control team is currently looking into your order to ensure the items are up to our usual standard.

All our bathrobes are made 5% larger to allow room for shrinkage.

Again, we are sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

Kind regards,

Poorly Run Company

This review is only with respect to Customer Fulfillment and Customer Service as I never received the towels I ordered. In a nutshell, I ordered bath sheets with blue banding for approximately £70.00. A week after placing my order I received an email informing me that the towel was out of stock and that there would be a 6 week delay before I received my towels. The email offered the alternative of receiving a towel with black piping - apparently the only colour available. The email had no contact information.

When I contacted King of Cotton, it turned out that they had charged me for the towels even though they didn't have them in stock. The woman I spoke with on the phone was incredibly rude and unhelpful. There was no apology for being unable to fulfil the order or for charging me for a product they couldn't supply. Instead, I received a lot of "Yup", Nope", "Thats how we do it" between a liberal sprinklong of sighs.

My impression was that this company was running on an ad hoc basis with no rules or policies in place. Hopefully, they will return my money.

Very poor quality

I ordered 1000 thread count cotton fitted bed sheet. Compared to other 1000 thread products I have bought, the material is extremely thin. It is very hard to believe this is 1000 thread count.

The best in Duck feather and Down!

Having not had a duck feather & Down Duvet before and finding duvets too hot even in winter with tog 4 I was nervous that this one would not work! Not so! It works so well regulating the differing temperatures and causing better sleep!
King of Cotton are fast delivering and reliable. Would definitely recommend!
