Superb tools, excellent service

Axminster not only provide excellent value tools and machinery, but their after sales service is first class. When a renowned delivery company delivered my new lathe smashed in transit, they immediately sorted out its collection and replacement. Couldn't ask for more.

Good product poor delivery

Bought the 1700 work bench and I’m delighted with it, easy to build and good quality. My only concern is the condition the delivery arrived in. The box was very damaged and there are a couple of dents on the bench top which is fine on a workbench but not when they were not made by me. My wife had to help the lady who delivered the bench because she couldn’t lift the package but by that time it had been dragged off the van and along the pavement. Perhaps Axminster need to address delivery expectations with the couriers.
