The delivery was fast and efficient. If I emailed the company about anything, they were quick to respond. The product I purchased is good quality and easy to assemble and put up.

3 months no equipment
I waited 3 months to get my order, no apology from gorilla sports, no communication from gorilla sports. The only reason I got it was off the back of this review. 2 stars because equipment is decent when it arrives.
I ordered items on pre order in November got an email on 15/12/21 stating i would get tracking info in 7-10 days. I heard nothing so chased in January then got an email stating my order was with DHL waited 2 days still no info on the DHL website. In response to this review gorilla sports messaged me personally to say the order (60kg of wieghts) had been lost but was found and still gave no delivery dates! If my order was lost why didn't someone contact me!

Dear Mark, we are very sorry to hear you have not received your order!
This was a pre-order which was stated on the webshop and also the order confirmation you received. DHL is overworked at the moment so it might take a little longer until you can track your order - we are very sorry about this!

Dear Stephen, we are very sorry to hear this!
Our customer service has replied to you e-mails on January 17th. We sincerely apologize for the delay with your order and for our late feedback!
Slow delivery and terrible customer service.
I still haven't even received an update as to where the item is? It was ordered before Christmas and is now 17th of January. When I emailed asking for an update they said just be patient without revealing where the item is or how long it would be. Amateur hour customer service and terrible delivery. Will never buy from this seller again, just an awful experience.

No movement on my order and no status comms. I only learnt after I paid that the gear comes from a Germany and may be in more than one shipment. I have no idea when I will get it

Not received
I have been asked by Gorilla Sports UK to leave a review, however I am yet to receive my order which was placed on 29th December, or any response to my follow up email.
The money was taken from my account weeks ago, which included approximately £10 for delivery, but I haven't heard anything since my confirmation email except for the email asking me to write a review and have not received what I ordered.

The communication was not clear
The communication was not clear. Bought something for quick delivery..... 10 days ago and now still no sign of delivery. Received an email talking about Brexit and that stuff will only come in batches.... Brexit has happened quite a while ago. I would expect that you know your logistics a bit better

Dear Davide, we are very sorry to hear you have not received your order. Unfortunately we are still affected from the Brexit since regulations change(d) multiple times. In the webshop the delivery time is 7-14 days and we're pointing out that delays can happen. You will receive another email regarding your order shortly to solve this!
Vinyl weight set.
Good value, easy to use due to integrated handles. Packaging not very study, though no damage occurred.

Very fast delivery.
I ordered a jumping rope and it literally arrived 2 days later. While buying it I select the free shipping option. It said that it will be 9-15 business days. The package was very small so there was practically no waste.
Very good!

Ordered over a month ago and still yet to be delivered. I have contacted customer support twice and while they were quick to respond, little to no information was given. Both times I was informed delivery is still in customs, despite asking both times they have still not given me an estimated delivery date.
No warning was given that deliveries would take this long when ordering. Won't be using service again.

Dear Ailsa, we are very sorry you haven't received your order yet and are not pleased with our customer service. We can totally understand that you're upset! Unfortunately delays are normal at the moment but of course this is not an excuse that you were given no information.

Awful company
Shocking company. Didn't receive the weight bench until weeks after purchase. Wanted to return due to the substantial wait, cost for me to return would be £115 for the courier. They informed me of reasonably local drop off point (35 miles away) Decided to drive over to drop off and save myself the £115. Arrived at the depot to be told they do not accept parcels from Gorilla Sports as they never collect them and end up stuck in their warehouse. Wasted journey. Emailed to ask for an alternative address, they provided one miles away, with no option but to use a courier. Now stuck with a weight bench that I can't get rid of.
