A 5 star review for customer service …

A 5 star review for a damaged product may seem odd, but that's the point.
Most online retailers get items such as furniture sent direct to the customer.
Damage happens, but it's how the retailer deals with this that makes them worth dealing with - or not.
The way Shackletons dealt with our issue was a lesson to many other retailers.
This has resulted in, 1. This review and, 2. Us going to Shackletons first in our search for any more furniture. So yes. 5 stars we'll earned!

Good customer service

I purchased the Valentine Sunbed which showed grey cushions on 30/5/25

The Bed arrived very quick by professional guys and were very polite and helpful.

On unwrapping the bed I found that the cushions did not match the colour I had seen in the picture, I contacted customer service and spoke to Linzi after some discussions it was decided that the best option was to receive a full refund and get the bed picked up free of charge, it may have been a library picture but there was a swatch showing the colour of cushions that had been delivered , that is fine because of the customer service I will be using Shackleton for some future chairs that I like

Great customer service

We recently ordered a garden table/chair set from Shackletons online. Delivery was fast and well packaged. Unfortunately we were missing some of the bolts required for assembly. We called Shackletons and they immediately set about remedying the situation for us, and within 24hrs we had received a replacement for the missing bits, and assembled our lovely table set! The team did everything they could to make our experience with them positive, thank you!!

A top priced cafe insisting customers…

A top priced cafe insisting customers share a table at busy times is not good practice. However my main complaint was misleading and inaccurate discounting of a bookshelf I went on to buy, which was advertised as being previously for sale at £529.95 but was now reduced to £299.95. However as I understand the bookcase had never been on offer in the store at £529.95 and that Shackletons store price had always been £349.95 before being reduced. I mentioned this at the time but staff had no comment other than say they would mention this to Mr Shackleton.
I have never been asked to share a table in the past and have never experienced this kind misleading and dubious ⁸
pricing previously, but will now not be shopping there again.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are sorry to hear that your recent visit did not meet your expectations.

During particularly busy periods in our café, we may occasionally ask customers if they would be willing to share larger tables to help accommodate everyone wishing to dine with us. We appreciate that this approach will not suit everyone's preferences, and we apologise if this detracted from your experience.

Regarding the bookcase pricing, we take all comments about our pricing and promotions seriously. We are sorry that you felt the advertised reduction was misleading. Your concerns were passed on to management at the time, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. We are committed to ensuring our pricing information is clear, accurate, and compliant with all relevant regulations.

It is disappointing to hear that this experience has affected your confidence in shopping with us, as this is certainly not the impression we aim to leave with our customers. We value your feedback and will use it to review both our communication and customer experience.

Kind Regards,
Shackletons Home & Garden

Absolutely fantastic customer care

Absolutely fantastic customer care. Many companies say their customer care is good but the proofs in the pudding and I couldn’t be more impressed by Shackletons who sent out missing parts for our table next day delivery. The lady I spoke to was very helpful, rang me back within an hour, and got the job done with no fuss. Excellent.

Perfect service

From the person I spoke to by phone to give me product advice, to the on-line team right through to the delivery company they choose to use: everything was perfect.

Excellent customer service and after care

We recently purchased a dining room table and chairs. Unfortunately, the table and bench chairs together were not the right fit for our space. We contacted customer service and Linzi dealt with our query as to whether we could bring the set back and exchange for one better suited. Linzi came back to us within the working day and assured us that we could exchange, talking us through each step. Once we had chosen our new set, Linzi arranged for the delivery and collection of the first set. The whole thing was seamless. This demonstrated excellent customer service and we will certainly return in future with this peace of mind. The delivery team that came to the house were also excellent and very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. We are delighted with our new set, thank you!

Music in cafe is too loud

We used the cafe and found that the music (Smooth Radio) was too loud and intrusive. Despite asking twice, the volume was not reduced. On speaking with the manageress at customer services, her arrogant reply was that we had been sitting in the area where the speaker was, and that was the reason for the excessive volume. "That's the way we have it", was her response, which was most unhelpful. Be advised if you go there, they will not switch down the radio.

Customer is King!

We bought a Laura Ashley coffee table online, but needed to return it as it didn't colour match a sideboard from the same range (one was honey oak, the other sandy) From making contact and getting excellent advice and support from Linzi in the Customer Support team to taking the table back to the warehouse and being greeted by Alistair, who immediately recalled the information provided the previous day about the return, we felt that as the customer we were being treated fabulously.
They both made us feel that 'the Customer is King', both were very helpful and polite as well as being apologetic for something that was not their fault.
I can't recommend them highly enough.
Thank you!

Great service

When we went to collect our new purchase, it was ready and waiting at the warehouse and loaded into the car for us. When it came to putting the furniture together, there were some bolts missing. We contacted Shackletons and Matt dropped the missing bolts of the same evening at our home after hours. The service was great and the furniture looks fab in our home and is the quality you would expect from Shackletons. Thank you

Disappointed but the follow up was sincere

Ordered a mirror on the 20th of December only to be told yesterday it’s out of stock. Terrible! Had a phone call this morning 02/01/2026 to apologise which is unheard of. Very much appreciated.
