Hi Tony,

Thanks for the 5-star review, even though we’re sorry to hear the delivery didn’t go smoothly.

We’ll raise this with the courier, as leaving your parcel at the wrong property isn’t acceptable. We really appreciate your patience and are glad the rest of your experience with us was positive.

If there's anything else we can help with, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

The product is perfect

The product is perfect. There was a problem with the delivery but they let me know. So very good.
The delivery company was not so good. I was not informed that the product had arrived. I had to check myself, which is fine but they rell you that they will let you know when parcel ready for collection.
