Great products and really useful information about what my daughter needs, I had overlooked the small stuff! Very impressed

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The actual package in itself was good! The mattress cover came with a small stain. I was a little bit confused because when I read the website, it sounded like the packages were meant to be IN my room... See more

I got the budget version of all three packs and I am super happy with all of them. The packages were in my room when I arrived and saved me a lot of hassle in the first few days when I was stressed fr... See more

Everything was perfect!

The service was really nice and on time! It was delivered early so I would not have to worry... and that was the best thing!

Excellent customer service

I bought both a “kitchen bundle” + “bedding bundle” and my parcels arrived at my residence on the same day I placed the orders, I couldn't believe it!! it was great since I got everything I needed.

Kostas understands our situation like no one else; students get rooms with neither bedding nor kitchen utensils and Essentials help us with these "essentials" on time. Excellent customer service, friendly and always helpful.

Really convenient, average quality, great customer service.

I ordered the "Dining bundle" and the "Essentials bundle".

The delivery was on time, and the box already in the room when I checked in, which is really convenient.

The dining bundle is ok, the bowls are really small, and the quality is average at best, but I didn't expect more for the price.

However, the essentials bundle is a disappointment. Even though the pillows and the sheets are okay, the quilt is the main issue. It is tiny even though I chose the right size on the website, not warm, and the material is really poor, almost like a disposable quilt.

In summary, even though the quality is not the greatest, the convenience of this service is what makes it worth it and I would buy it again if I had to.

Edit: Updated from 3 starts to 4 stars, the customer service was really reactive and helpful.

Quick response and helpful

They were very helpful in guiding me to the right kind of bedding for me as I have allergies and the down filling didn’t suit me. They replaced it and I find the comfort bundle just right for me. I like how they reached out when I communicated my issues and sorted things out promptly.

Hi Abbasi,

We are really sorry you are not fully satisfied with your order. The Linen tend to soften after the first wash.

Good quality!

Good quality!
The kit was complete and good quality for the price! I would recommend. The duvet is warm, and slightly short for my mattress but it works. The pillow could be a lit 'harder'.
It did arrive late in the afternoon, but got in on time for bed.

easy and convenient service

easy and convenient service. The products arrived on time. Easy payment. I got the luxury bundle and the quality of the fabric could be better for this price. Also, the duvet blanket is a big too big for my taste.

Too expensive

Too expensive; the covers are too hard and hence uncomfortable.

Hi Jiawei,

we are really sorry that you felt this way. You may find the covers hard if you use them straight out of the box, but after a wash they will feel nice and soft.
