better value than the usual brand

Set against the brand I usually buy, this works out a fair bit cheaper for the same spec on a hard drive. I know this stuff reasonably well so I checked the capacity and interface before ordering. Everything matched the listing and it was recognised straight away when plugged in. Delivery came the next day, which I was pleased about.

A sensible way to order

I needed a replacement part for my garden shed door and this seemed the sensible place to look. The order was simple to place and the confirmation came through promptly. The part arrived well packed and it fitted first time. I found the staff at the helpline most helpful when I rang with a question.

Ordered a pair of headphones

Went with the headphones after comparing a few options online. Price was slightly above the cheapest listing I found but the seller ratings and delivery promise pushed me this way. Arrived well packed and they sound decent for the money. Customer service replied to my question about the warranty within a couple of days.

A cordless drill set

Bought a cordless drill set after looking at a few other options first. The battery and two chargers came in one box with everything listed. It has been a good drill for DIY so far. Delivery was quick and no problems at all.

the saved basket was a lifesaver

The saved basket was the thing I liked most, I'd left a phone case in there a week before and it was still waiting when I came back. Checkout took a minute on my phone in the queue for the train. Delivery was next day and the tracking link worked. Quick and sorted, nothing to complain about for a quick top up.

Needed a new set of reading glasses

I needed a replacement pair of reading glasses after mine went missing at the garden centre. The site was straightforward to use and the order went through without any bother. The glasses are a little pricier than I had hoped, though I suppose that is to be expected. Delivery was prompt and they arrived in good condition.

Quick and easy, would use again

Really quick and easy, I placed my order on my phone while waiting for the kettle to boil. Pay button was easy to find and the checkout didn't make me sign up for anything. Got a confirmation straight away and it arrived the next day. Dead simple, no faff at all, just what I needed on a busy week.

First order here

I needed a new pair of running shoes for a 10k I am training for, and a friend recommended this site. This was my first order here so I was a bit nervous about the sizing. The delivery took about four days, which was a bit longer than the estimate, but the customer messages kept me updated. The shoes are comfortable and the price was a good one. Checkout was simple.

Good value for what you get

Good value and that's the main reason I keep coming back. Ordered a set of kitchen bin liners and a multipack of batteries for less than I'd have paid in the local shop, and they turned up in two working days with no fuss. The site is plain but it does the job, you can see the total before you pay and there were no surprise charges at the till. Would order again for the everyday stuff.

Way easier than the other site

Compared to the other site I used last month, this is so much quicker to order from. The other one made me create an account and verify my email before I could even see the delivery price. Here I just put my card in and that was it. Order arrived a day earlier than estimated.

the search picked up exactly what I typed

The search picked up exactly what I typed, which saved me scrolling through pages. I checked three other places for a replacement tap washer and this was the cheapest by a fair bit. Arrived in two days and everything was there. Nothing to grumble about.

better than the big chain alternative

Compared to the big chain I usually use, this was a lot cheaper for the same headphones. The chain wanted nearly the same money with a slower shipping option. Delivery here took three days and the box was fine. Only thing is the returns label was a bit fiddly to find in the email.

bought a new phone charger

Picked up a fast charger from the site on Sunday night while watching telly. It arrived Tuesday, plugged straight in and works fine with my phone. Nothing to complain about really, box was a bit squashed but the charger was fine.

Needed a last minute birthday gift

Needed a birthday present for my sister and it was 2 days away, so I was in a panic on the bus. Ordered through the site, it turned up the next morning and the wrapping was already done. Saved me, honestly, my sister was chuffed.

got a gaming mouse

Ordered a gaming mouse on my phone during my lunch break, took about two minutes to pay. It came in the next day and the mouse works straight away with my laptop. The app kept me updated on where it was the whole time. No issues at all with this one, sorted.

Reliable for a regular top up

The verdict is simple, I order the same printer ink from them every few months. I know the product area well and the pricing here is competitive against the specialist shops. Ordering takes two minutes and the stock levels are always right. Delivery has never once been late in the years I have used them.

cheaper than the other app

Compared to the other shopping app I had on my phone, this one was quicker and cheaper for the same moisturiser. The other app charged more for delivery and made me wait longer. Ordered at lunch and it was here by the next day. Would use again.

Cheapest i could find

Verdict: good for the money. I checked several places for a set of storage boxes and this came out cheapest after delivery was added. Arrived in two days and everything was there. Nothing special but it did the job I needed.

The delivery updates are spot on

What stands out most is how they text you at every stage, from packed to out for delivery. I have been ordering from them for about six years now. My last order came exactly when the text said it would. Easy to deal with and no fuss.
