I really do love the magazines and it has been just what I needed for starting into the hobby and not knowing how to paint. Only reason it’s not a 5 star rating is because we don’t get the same perks... See more

Lovely collection of Peter Rabbit cross stitch 4 season samplers. But lots of other patterns and ideas too. The designs can also be used individually or put together as a sampler as intended.

Sneaky selling practices and poor information on their website. They don't make it clear when an issue needs another, and they don't offer returns. Avoid.

I had the problem getting my lat two issue of the dambusters Lancaster. I first bought them from WHSmiths and all was going well until the owners of Smiths decided to sell their stores. So I had a problem getting the last two issues so I purchased them direct and they arrived safe and fast. I would say to anyone who is missing an issue buy direct. Many thanks to all.

Great models, but flimsy packaging and rough deliveries are a worry

The models themselves are fantastic to build, but the packaging Hachette uses for the parts and magazines is far too thin and flimsy. Combined with how Evri handles and delivers them, boxes regularly arrive squashed or damaged, leaving me constantly worried that delicate components inside are broken. On top of that, sorting out replacement parts or ordering over the phone can be a slow process. Solid products, but Hachette really needs sturdier packaging and better handling.

If you're needing replacements, please email us directly using customer_service_uk@contact.hachettepartworks.com, including your subscription number, full address and pictures of the damages, so we can look into this for you. We don't recommend calling to arrange replacements as we need images of the damages.

Hi there,

Thank you for your review.

I am delighted to hear that you got your delivery in good time! Your feedback is appreciated. With the tracking information, the system can sometimes incorrectly assign a number as being with either UPS or USPS (we're looking into this), so try the other if the first one doesn't work.

We do hope you continue to enjoy your collection!
