Excellent products at a great price, easy ordering and collection. There was 1 wrong item when I opened my package. I didn't bother to change it as the trip back would cost more than the wrong item.... See more

I found the website ordering rather difficult. I filled in which I thought was all the boxes, only to be informed after a telephone conversation that I had missed the small box asking again for the postcode.
On the plus side the price was very competitive, after ordering on Monday noon, the order was delivered on Wednesday pm. All round very good 😊

No communication, order still not recieved

Placed order a month ago, items still show as in stock on website but order status just shows as "on backorder"
No items dispatched, and no response to multiple emails despite claims of replying within 2 business days.

Bose Shades Charger.

Works every bit as well as the original charger for a reasonable price.
I was very happy with the free next day delivery on Prime. Reasonably priced too.

Avoid this company

Avoid this company. They deliver cable is flimsy cardboard that get damaged in transit, when you refuse to accept as items are clearly missing they take no responsibility and refuse to re-imburse. They would rather call you a thief than investigate the courier company.

Item out of stock, still waiting for a refund

Ordered a new smoke alarm & got a phone call a few days later saying it's out of stock & asked if I would like a refund or to wait for stock to come back in, I selected refund. It's been over a week & still now refund.
Overall the service on the phone was great but im still waiting for a refund & not sure why it was available to order online if there was no stock in the first place.

Excellent service

Prompt delivery and a good range of products.
An accidental wrong item was sent last order, but this was quickly and professionally rectified and a replacement sent out the same day. A++ service.

The first delivery was damaged

The first delivery was damaged, after I opened the package. Contacted Superlec, followed their procedure for the collection of the damaged item, and received the replacement in very quick time.
Good service.
