Dorne

This is my first time ordering from them and it went really smoothly from start to finish. I wanted a set of replacement bike lights and they arrived the next day in a padded bag. Price was a bit above the big chains but the customer chat answered my question about the mounting bracket within minutes.

Bought a spirit level for the shed after the old one cracked. Had compared a few options and this one had the best reviews for accuracy at a fair price. The vial was clear and true straight out of the box, and it arrived in a sturdy case that protects the edges. I checked it against a known level and it held up well. Very pleased with it for everyday jobs around the house and allotment.

Compared to the big online electrical stores I usually use, Dorne's range of replacement filters for my extractor fan was far more accurate on fit, with the right depth and fixings listed clearly. I've bought the same ones twice now and they fitted first time, which is more than I can say for the last lot. The filter itself is thicker than the cheap ones and seems to last longer between changes.

Fits my bike perfectly, sorted in about five minutes. Ordered the chain on the Tuesday and it was on my doorstep Wednesday morning. Price was better than the local bike shop too. Would order again.

Compared it to the high street shop and this was a few pounds cheaper for the same heavy duty extension lead. Ordering was quick on my phone. The lead is a bit heavier than I expected but it feels well made. Delivery came in two days.

My old tap started dripping under the sink and the plumber's quote was daft, so I went looking for a seal kit that would fit my make. I have been ordering my bits from this site for about eleven years now, mostly for the house and the allotment shed, and it has never once let me down. The kit came with a clear diagram and everything matched up. Ordering was simple and it arrived well packed.

What struck me most was the printed order summary that came folded in with the parcel, which was rather thoughtful. The paint roller refills were a little dearer than I'd hoped, and the second roller was missing one of the frames when I opened it. They replaced it without much fuss in the end.

Bought a replacement grease filter for the cooker hood after the old one got gunked up. Fit was spot on and it cost less than the big names. Delivery was quick and the box was fine. Would order again for the price alone.

Needed a laptop sleeve for uni because my old one ripped. The sleeve was fine but the zip was a bit stiff at first. Delivery was next day which was good, and the price was lower than the student shops.

Lead with the bit I liked, the fitting guide for the hose was really clear. First time ordering, and the checkout was easy enough. The delivery took a few days longer than the site said, though, and I had to wait in for it. Still a good buy for the garden.

Compared it to the shop down the road and it was cheaper for the same phone charger cable, which is what I wanted. Ordering took two minutes on my phone. The cable came in a little bag with no box which was fine but not what I expected. Works well so far.

The fitting depth was listed clearly, which is the bit I always get wrong. I'd looked at two other sites and a big electrical store first, and this one was the only place that said exactly what size fits. Ordered the filter, and it went in first time. Happy with it.

Found exactly what I needed for the garden shed, a new padlock set for the doors. I'd been put off by the price elsewhere, but this was reasonable and the order went through without any fuss. The padlocks are sturdy and the delivery came within a few days, carefully wrapped.

Needed a garden hose fitting quickly because the old one split. I ordered on the Monday and it didn't arrive until the Friday, with no update in between. The fitting was the wrong thread size and I had to sort a return which took ages to get a reply on.

Sorted, brake pads for my commuter bike arrived quicker than I expected and cheaper than the big chain. Fitted them last night, no issues. Ordered on my phone in about two minutes, super easy.

Bought a linen lamp shade for the living room. It's a bit more grey than it looked on the site, though it still works with the rest of the room. Delivery took a few extra days over what the tracking said. Price was fine and I've not had any trouble otherwise.

Bought a set of galvanised door hinges for the shed, which needed replacing after the winter damp. I've used this site for tools for years and the hinges are heavy duty and the right size. They arrived well packed and the price beat the local ironmonger.

I needed a spare charger for work because I kept forgetting mine at home. The charger does the job but the cable is a bit short for my desk setup. Delivery was next day which was good and the price was fair for what I paid.

Ordered a replacement brake pad set for my commuter bike, and it's cheaper than the big chain and turned up quicker too. Checkout took about two minutes on my phone, which was a relief. Fit was spot on. Pads seem decent so far.
