Genuinely a helpful company
Genuinely a helpful company, always replied quickly on Instagram when issues arose due to DHL, plates themselves are awesome, ordered 100kg of cast iron and they're great, will make an effort to come back when ordering more plates and equipment.

Fantastic customer service
On customer service alone, these guys get 5 stars from me! Armie was brilliant in helping me with my order (which I messed up)! Can’t wait to get the equipment now - have no doubt it’ll be 5 star quality if it’s anything like their customer service.

Hex dumbbell set with stand & Bench
Fantastic equipment. Brilliant service team.
Ordered a full hex dumbbell weight set with stand and weight bench. Order process was simple. The team were very responsive and kept me updated throughout the process. Delivery was earlier than estimated as well which was fantastic.
The equipment is brilliant and has massively improved my home gym setup.
Certainly be ordering more from the team.

Super helpful & speedy delivery
I made an error on my order & put in the wrong address (Road instead of Avenue). I contacted the help desk & John was super helpful, contacting DHL & getting my order delivered to the correct address.
He was also reassured me that he'd deal with it & there was no need to be concerned.
And I love the bells, excellent packaging too.

Home gym equipment
I bought some home gym equipment from Northern a year or so ago and was extremely impressed with the bench and dumbells I received, and the speed of service. I bought an additional set of dumbells recently, again with speedy (free this time) delivery. A rack I also purchased didn't quite work, but Northern were exceptional in responding and arranging a return and refund. Brilliant company and excellent value products.

Grey faux foam wooden flooring in my games room.
This is the best foam flooring I've seen on the market, and it looks amazing in my games room. The only problem I have is that different packs are 1 or 2 mm different thicknesses, which means they don't all sit flush on the floor.
Other than that, I love it.

I’m really glad to hear you’re happy with the foam flooring and that it looks great in your games room.
I’m sorry about the slight difference in thickness between the packs. I understand how this can affect achieving a perfectly flush finish. We’ll make sure this is shared with our quality team for review so we can improve consistency going forward.
Thanks again for your honest feedback and support.

1st time buyer, exceptional service
1st time ordering from Northern and what a great experience. I made a mistake with my order and Ryan in their service team was exceptional in helping me put it right.
Everything I ordered look great and the sandbag in particular feels great to handle and it's clearly built to last.
Will be back for more 💪🏻
Thanks
