The mixer tap cartridge

The cartridge I bought fitted my tap perfectly and the handle now moves smoothly again. I've been ordering from them on and off for a few years. Checkout took a bit longer than I'd like because it kept asking me to confirm my postcode.

it's what I needed for the sink

We needed a replacement waste trap for the kitchen sink after it started dripping under the cupboard, and I'm glad I didn't spend more elsewhere. The listing showed the correct diameter and the seal fitted snugly. The only small annoyance was the search filters, which took a few tries before I found the right size. Everything arrived promptly and the plumbing has been dry since.

needed a proper spanner set

We needed a decent socket set after our old one lost half its sizes in the garage. I know my tools well enough and the sizes listed were correct for the job. Quality feels solid for the money, the ratchet clicks smoothly and the metric range covers what I need. Took a couple of days to arrive, nothing wrong with that.

exactly what the boiler needed

We needed a replacement diverter valve for an old combi boiler that had started leaking from the bottom and I'd spent ages trying to match the part myself. Found the right one here, the reference number on the listing matched the old part on my phone photo, and it fitted first time with the same fixings. Took maybe ten minutes to swap over and no more drips since.

Better than the big supermarket site

I'd first looked at the large supermarket website for a set of kitchen tap washers, but their search was rather confusing and the prices seemed higher than they ought to be. This shop was far clearer and the parts list matched what I had, so I ordered without fuss. Everything arrived promptly and worked perfectly.

Way easier than the other place

Got a new drill battery here instead of the big DIY chain, which wanted nearly double. Checkout was quick and no faffing about with accounts. It works fine so far, nothing to complain about.

Parts came but had to wait

Ordered a replacement door handle for the bedroom, the one that matched the old colour. Took four days to get dispatched and I had to chase them with a message. Once it arrived it fitted fine but the screws were a bit short.

The pressure washer nozzles

Bought a set of pressure washer nozzles for the old machine and they're the exact fit for the quick-release end. I've been a customer for years and always ordered the same sort of thing from them. Delivery was prompt and the packaging kept everything safe. They've done the job every time.

Delivery took longer than it said

Ordered on a Monday and the site said it would arrive by Thursday but it didn't show up until the following Tuesday, no message to say why. I messaged them through the chat thing and got a reply the next morning which was fine. The item itself was what I wanted and the price was a bit lower than the big sites so I don't feel too bad about it. Just wish they'd have sent an update.

fast and cheap enough

Honestly the best deal I found for a replacement windscreen wiper blade pair. Put it in the basket, paid, and it was at mine before the weekend. The blades clear the screen fine, no streaks yet. Would happily order again.

Decent filters for the price

Bought the pack of four replacement cooker hood filters. They're the same size as the ones I took out and the metal mesh looks sturdy enough. Delivery came in two days in a plain box with no fuss. Price is a bit cheaper than the main brand but I'll see how they hold up over the next few months.

Been using them for years now

I've been ordering from them for years now, mostly bits for the house and the car. The prices are usually fair and the stock is what I'm after, so I just go back to them without thinking. Never had a problem worth mentioning, which is why I keep coming back.

not quite what I'd compared

I'd been looking at a similar fan heater from a bigger retailer and this one looked a little cheaper. When it arrived the controls felt flimsy and the cable was shorter than the picture suggested. The return form was fiddly to find online and I'm still waiting to hear whether I'll get the postage back.

The best of the three I checked

I'd looked at three sites for a replacement bathroom extractor fan and this was the one I went with in the end. Price came out lowest once postage was added and the spec matched the old unit. Dispatched the same day and fitted without any drama, which felt like a good sign for the rest of the purchase.

Quick and easy from my phone

Got my new bits booked in on the app while waiting for the kettle to boil, took about two minutes start to finish. Price was fine, nothing shocking. Confirmation came straight away and the tracking actually updates. Would use again.

cheaper than the usual place

Got a set of cable ties and a little tub of grease instead of paying the high street price, and it was way cheaper than the usual place I'd have gone. Checkout was smooth and the order showed up in two days. Quality is decent enough for what it is.

Great for a cheap fix

Bought a set of car floor mats and they fit my car perfectly, no trimming needed. Ordered at lunch and they were here the next morning. Price was good too, cheaper than the usual places.

The replacement kettle element

I'd been after a replacement element for my old kettle, which the manufacturer no longer sells, and this shop had the right one listed. The fitting instructions that came with it were a little brief, so I did have to ring a relative to help me out with the wiring. The element itself is well made and the kettle heats up as it should. Delivery was steady and the box arrived intact, though a few days longer than they'd suggested.

a good place for garden bits

I'd say it's a sound place to buy garden hose fittings and I've bought from them twice now. The brass connectors are sturdy and the prices are fair compared with the garden centre. The only small bother was that the order page doesn't show the postage until the last step, but I didn't mind once I'd seen it.

Needed a new bike chain

Needed a new chain for my commuter bike because the old one kept skipping on the back cog. Ordered on the Tuesday and it showed as dispatched on the Thursday, which felt slow for something so small. When it turned up the chain was fine, a bit stiffer than I expected but it runs okay. Price was reasonable so I'm not too bothered about the wait.
