Great value, service & delivery

I am very pleased with my recent purchase experience. Item was at a very good price, useful information and updates about the delivery were provided and it was even delivered earlier than expected. Due to a reasonable spend free delivery was also an added bonus. I'm a very happy customer and can't wait to use my ergobaby carrier when my little one arrives. I would definitely purchase more items from here in the near future and recommend the company to others.

Great

I ordered the bugaboo canopy and it arrived very quickly and is a good product. I ordered because it was 10% off my first order making it competitively priced.

Snuzpod

My daughter researched baby products and had chosen the Snuzpod as she could not find one she preferred in the the US. Nest we needed to find bedding for the cot and found your website - she was worried ordering from abroad might be a hassle but could not have been easier. Our items arrived quickly and are lovely.

Excellent customer service

I called on Xmas eve and received all the help I could have wished for. I was called back having left a message and Kate was extraordinarily helpful. Probably the best customer service I have received from an online retailer. Thank you!

Excellent

Bought a pair of shoes for my daughter, they are very good quality and will last, sadly they were too big for her tiny feet but will keep them anyway.

Bugaboo spares? Born to the rescue!

I bought a Bugaboo seven years ago when grandkid one showed up. Number three arrived on 30th November 2015 and the poor old Bugaboo needed new cot supports (wrecked by grandkid two) and a shopping bag to smarten up. It was not an overnight job but Born found them for me. Katie was my contact there and she was great!

Very very late, had to wait over a month

So I had to wait over a month for my order to arrive, and to add insult to elongated injury they sent me a discount card as a sorry, which was £5 of £50...£10 off £100 etc, for my next order, in zero way would I ever buy from them again.

Reply from Born

Good Morning, thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately as communicated through the purchase, the supplier had delays coming into the UK which lead on to affecting independent retailers like ourselves and therefore our customers. We apologise for the delay again and upgraded your delivery to an express dispatch from us alongside offering the discount voucher to accommodate for the additional 1 week delay on your quoted 3 week dispatch time. If there is anything else that the customer service team can do to help please do contact us 0117 924 5080
