Absolute chaos trying to buy a pair of grass trimmers. Arrived with one stolen by Evri and had to wait ages for missing/stolen item to arrive. I hate Evri and they should stop using them! Have you not seen the Panorama program a few years ago about them being bone idle and auctioning off undelivered items in Birmingham?

Very good digging fork

Very good digging fork. Feels really sturdy and great in the hand. Love the wood finish. Feels like it’ll last me a lifetime. Massively long warranty is an indicator of the manufacturer’s confidence in their product

A fast response to my faulty watering can. Vouchers to cover buying a new watering can and postage given. Reordered, vouchers used and an additional £1.45 paid. Very happy with replacement thank you. Having worked in customer services myself, the extra money I paid was fine, but meant you got 4 stars and not 5.

A One Stop Shop for all Gardening Equipment

The agent I spoke with when wishing to return the watering can with ordering the wrong size did not explain the £5.00 charge clearly. I was advised it was for making an error when the charge was for the return postage. However, the representative I spoke with yesterday 11 August 2026 concerning the refund was very helpful in organising the refund.
Thank you

We are, however, very pleased to learn that the representative you spoke with yesterday was helpful in resolving the refund for you. We value your business and are always working to improve our service.

Let down by delivery agent

K&S Customer Service would get five stars. However, the company is let down by its choice of Evri as its delivery service, hence the overall three stars. However the initial delivery, "mislaid" by Evri was promptly replaced and is of excellent quality.
