Ordered a lawnmower + batteries only to find it not in stock. However Toolstore immediately emailed us about this, giving us the choice of cancelling or waiting 7-10 days. Opted to wait as deal was good. After 10days I emailed and was answered immediately saying the item was on its way. It duly arrived and is very good.
You don’t mind waiting if kept informed, so I was impressed and would definitely use Toolstore again.

The details on the invoice were the exact details you left when placing the order and can not be changed as this is a legal document.
Many thanks

Fantastic Service 5 Star.

I ordered a Dremel 8220 on Tuesday night at 10pm and received the goods on Thursday afternoon. Fantastic Service and Great communication throughout the ordering and delivery process from the supplier.
I would definitely order again, the price was also very competitive.

Power drill set

Ordered drill and turned up after a short delay. Received text from company to inform us of the delay - appreciate that.
Good price and checked it's the most updated version of the power drill (the star products of Makita drill and batteries).

Will use this company again via Amazon, certainly.

Disgraceful customer service

Disgraceful customer service. I purchased a Milwaukee wet and dry vac that never turned up at the agreed argos collection point and they expected me to track it down and trace it. Absolute shambles and would never order anything from these people again.

Poor after sales customer service.

I had to contact on many occasions to get an issue with a Milwaukee drill resolved they would only help me to get it repaired under the 3 year warranty it was sold with, after I said I would take them to court. Mike the owner was not helpful but eventually it was fully restored by Milwaukee FOC . By this time I had already replaced the drill with an Hitachi. Poor after sales service by both companies.

Excellent Service!

I have just purchased a Makita long reach hedge cutter from Alan Watkins and I cannot speak highly enough of their efficiency and service. I only placed my order online at 3pm and the item was delivered the following day at 11.30am well packaged with full instructions and having been pdi'd before it was dispatched . I would certainly use this firm again and would highly recommend them to family and friends.

Fantastic Service

Purchased a new sds drill over the Xmas period. Came the next day with very informative texts and emails advising of delivery. Well packaged and a great price! Fantastic!

Head Torch

Sorry to rain on your parade regarding the good reviews but the reply I just received after 2 emails, first one being in June stating return item which I bought in June from one of their associates and had rechargeable batteries in dated 2013! Now they expect me to return the item, at my expense, I find this disgusting and will see them next year at the Trade Fair, Event City where I will make it known how they do business.

I ordered a festool cxs drill/driver the day after Boxing Day and much to my very pleasant surprise it was delivered two days later, even with a weekend in the middle. Great price and great service , I shall certainly use them Alan Wadkins again.
