Good responsive customer service

Buying and delivery were straightforward. When we discovered we had purchased spare wheels unnecessarily, they responded quickly and without fuss. Companies prove themselves when things go wrong and Ron Smith definitely stepped up to the mark.

Disinterested in Purchase made by click and collect

Items wasn’t ready to click and collect
The men seemed vague and uninterested .
Eventually decided to help, but getting expenisive tools from Sam Turner now. Bit of a boys club not keen on women purchasing tools. Very disorganied with products at other warehouse, never ready to just buy and leave. Outdated computer system takes years to work.

We're disappointed to read your review.

We’re sorry your order wasn’t quite ready when you arrived. As mentioned during checkout, we always contact customers once their order is prepared for collection, usually within 24 hours (Monday–Friday). On this occasion, you came in before receiving that confirmation, which caused some initial confusion.

It’s great to hear our team could sort everything out for you in store.

Excellent Husqvarna Robot mower advice and install

The advice from Ron Smith’s engineer who helped me select the right Huqsvarna robotic lawn for my garden was invaluable. He then came a few days later to install the mower and set up its mowing areas, keep out areas and schedules. It was invaluable to have this done by them. Since installation the mower has been happily looking after my lawn for me, doing a much neater job than I could manage with my old ride on mower and saving me hours every week. The app is easy to master and I can see what the mower is up to at any time.

Excellent Lawn Mower

I was looking for a lightweight lawnmower to cut our back grass to replace a much heavier petrol mower which I was finding difficult to manage. From the write-ups on the website I was able to identify a machine to meet my needs. I have just used it and it measured up to my expectations.
