Would prefer human contact re delivery date
Ordering online was straightforward, though I thought delivery charges were high for one large box. I received text for delivery day which was no good for me and then was unable to speak to anyone to rearrange, I left mssg on chatbot and it took a few days to receive new delivery date, again by text. Goods arrived on day with good communication and helpful delivery team. Item was easy to assemble and good quality.

I ordered a storage box 12 days ago that said it would be delivered within 3-5 days - I paid a premium delivery to have my item assembled. After 12 days no one has contacted me and I have no idea or if and when its being delivered - terrible communication would not use this company again

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.
We’re genuinely sorry for the delay and the lack of communication regarding your storage box. We completely understand how frustrating and disappointing this must be, particularly as you paid for a premium delivery service with assembly and were expecting your order within the stated 3–5 day timeframe.
We can see that one of our team members is already dealing with your issue and has reached out to our partner courier to obtain an update on your delivery. Please be assured that this is being actively followed up, and we’re working to get a clear update for you as quickly as possible.
We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your patience while our team works with the courier to resolve this for you.
Kind Regards,

Great service, comms and items
Ordered the 6 x 3 Legacy Pergola, with the louvered roof, along with one 3 ft Privacy screen. Overall it was a great experience, the CS guy (Felix) was very helpful and I am delighted with the pergola and screen. The build quality is great and made a real difference to our back garden. I will be ordering more Privacy screens in the future.

Love our new pergola
Great range of pergolas and able to find exactly what I wanted, Delivery was hassle free and placed in my garden with care. Able to put up in a few hours with the help of my teenage son and looks amazing. The free heater that came with it was the cherry on top, had it on several times and keeps us lovely and warm. Honestly couldn't fault any element of my experience. Will definitely use again and highly recommend.

Helpful Staff
White Stores has a great selection of garden furniture. I purchased a cantilever parasol. I mistakenly ordered the wrong item. This was resolved quickly and efficiently by a helpful member of the customer care team. I was kept updated on my purchase and the product arrived on time.

Customer service/Product Quality
Customer service, delivery times and delivery notifications are excellent. Products are very high quality. On the downside, a chair was delivered damaged in damaged packaging and replacement took time but all corrected eventually and with no fuss.

Ordered compact corner sofa with fire…
Ordered compact corner sofa with fire pit table. When the it arrived we had a sudden downpour and the delivery men got completely soaked but they still delivered to my garden room. Thank you. One box looked damaged and when we opened it, it was the box holding the glass guard and the glass was smashed. I contacted White Stores straight away and was asked to send pictures via email. The wonderful Arabella got back to me via email within 2 hours to inform me that they would send a new glass guard out to me within 4 days, I received it in 2 days and it is now all set up in my garden. Accidents happen but it is how it is handled and in my case Arabella not only replaced the item in days she also apologised and checked that I was okay due to the glass being shattered. Fantastic customer service.

Garden Furniture Cover
Looking for a patio furniture set cover. Have had several different covers in the past that have not stood the test of time. I accept nothing lasts forever especially when exposed to the UK climate.
Came across this cover by Protex. The dimensions Length 200cm, depth 80 cm & height 85cm were the closest I came across.
The quality is very good as are the types of fastenings that it has to help it fit securely.
Impressed & hoping that it will outperform my previous covers.
