Item very good quality, as described and arrived in good condition and in good time, can’t really ask for more
As a reasonably long term customer of Turners Retreat including rare visits when I venture North, more frequent mail order purchase plus two days of tuition with Mick Hanbury I have never been disappointed by the service and friendliness of the staff. Wish I lived nearer.
Goods supplied as ordered in a sufficient manner. All of excellent quality.
swift dispatch and receipt of order. - perfect
Everything is excellent from service to quality & price of products
This online purchase was fine. But dealing with Turner's Retreat will always be overshadowed by a previous occasion of a telephone call with a very rude and arrogant sales/customer services person on the phone.
All received quickly, packaging could be improved, overly large box with lose spindles of wood and glass - as though all just thrown in box.
I can't praise this tool store enough for its convenience; the user-friendly website, extensive tool selection, and lightning-fast delivery have made them my go-to choice whenever I need new equipment.
Prompt, speedy and efficient service
Excellent service as always.
Great selection , reasonable prices and very fast delivery
The mechanism is reasonably high quality and sturdy. A fair product albeit a little overpriced but I am putting this down to the shiny finish on the top as opposed to the grinder bits. Having said that, the finish on the top is not perfect. The main issue is as reported by other purchasers. There is not enough grounding wood (once the precision boring has been completed) to secure the end capture plate screws. The only way to secure the plate is to angle the securing screws away from the bore and into the body of the grinder. It can be achieved but with extreme care. Having said all this, the mechanism works satisfactorily.
The usual top class service from Turners. Having completed my order I realised I needed another item. One quick phone call and it was added to the order saving me the postage if it had been treated as a second order.
Quick delivery of high quality timber and tools
Very simple. I ordered the wrong thing. Posted it back on Friday, got the replacement following Tuesday, no fuss, no quibbles just excellent service.
Brilliant service stuff sent promptly and just what I wanted. No problems Richard
I needed a sierra pen kit asap for project and as usual Turners Retreat came up trumps with their easy ordering and quick delivery service.
I was promised free delivery over £50 I was then billed nearly £6 for delivery. In the small print it say UK mainland free delivery. I emailed the company. They agreed I should have free delivery and got a phone call from them. I therefore ordered again. Few days later Becki emails to say im not having my second delivery charge back. Only an email reply this time. Even though human voice on the first order said that was wrong and refunded me. Becki emailed no and charged me. Can’t bill someone and change your mind when it suits. Turners should Union flag logos all over its home page making those that are part of the Union believe they will be treated as such. I would no have place an order over £50 on either occasion if I though I was always going to be billed. Disgraceful. Be aware this seems like a legitimate con!
There was a slight shortage in the delivery. When I repoted it online they promptly sent out the missing items. No problem.
