Mine was only a small order for drawer runners but it was despatched very quickly and with good packaging that survived the trip via Royal Mail.
The package was complete and the job completed with no problems. I would recommend SDS to anybody.

Easy to find what I wanted

Easy to find what I wanted, description and photo. Able to buy the size I needed, which would fit in an envelope. It’s worth the extra cost over buying a part roll and the challenges of (some) parcel delivery (companies) - and the waste.

There were problems at every stage of the process - couldn't complete the order online. Doing it over the phone was laborious and ultimately info was inaccurate and my instructions weren't followed. When I called to follow up the person I had dealt with gave me incorrect info - so I had to keep insisting she speak to a colleague who finally told me the correct thing.

I have just tried contacting you to discuss this issue. Unfortunately, I have been unable to get through.

I can see that an order was done as part delivery and part collection as requested. However, I am happy to discuss through with you, please contact me on 020 7228 1185 when you can.

Thank you for your review, Mike.

We're pleased to hear that the item was well packed, but we're sorry that you were disappointed with the delivery time.

Having checked your order, it was placed at 5:31pm on 21st May and dispatched the following day, 22nd May. The delivery method selected at checkout was Royal Mail Tracked (2–3 days), and the parcel was delivered on 26th May.

While we dispatched your order promptly, we appreciate that delivery expectations can vary and we're sorry that the service did not meet yours on this occasion. Thank you for your feedback, as it helps us review both our delivery options and the information we provide to customers.

Kind regards,
Samantha Thatcher
