Christine Bradley

Product: Vantage 250 Traditional Summerhouse

The order of our Vantage 250 came at the time specified. The driver was extremely helpful and polite and all ran smoothly. The instructions were clear and although instructions for the shingle roof were a little complicated, all became apparent as the process emerged. We are more than happy with the end result. The summer house is very substantial and solid and we have had many positive comments from family and friends. We have painted it in an off white and green colour with an off white interior and grey floor. We have furnished it and added pictures to give a homely and intimate finish. We would highly recommend this product and very much feel it gives an appearance way beyond the purchase price.

Product: Vantage 250 Traditional Summerhouse

I give one star for a pile of nicely prepared timber but how can I comment. Your summer house is still in pieces in my garage. The Vantage 2.5 was delivered on the 4th of July, with a broken door glass, the door was taken away and two weeks later a piece of glass was delivered despite my bringing the matter to your attention. I have now waited another two weeks for a replacement panel. It is now the 30th of July! This whole sorry episode has left me, my family and friends frustrated and disappointed at the loss of the facility, angry at your considerable inefficiency and amazed at your lack of concern. This is not the first time my family has ordered from your company but it is very likely to be the last.

Pearl Whiten

Product: Monkey Bars Climbing Frame

The monkey bars are an excellent buy, my three grandchildren were absolutely thrilled and delighted with them.I realise that you offer a 'curb drop'service but I was told by your office that the items were 'bulky but not heavy'. This was not the case. I struggled to get the smaller bundle off my drive. The larger one was impossible for me a five foot three granny. I had to get a neighbour to help. This I'm afraid would prevent me from making future purchases. However my brothers put the equipment together for me and it is as stated earier it is excellent.

Liza Hobbs

Product: Vantage 350 Traditional Summerhouse

We are pleased with it and the only niggle with construction was that the horizontal planks across the back weren't individually stapled to the verticals. It would have taken only a few minutes more and would have saved us a job. It would have been great if we could have paid a bit more and had it in finished condition. Luckily I had the last of the good weather before the months of rain to paint it all inside and out with preservative. Love it though,it is robust and good looking.

Product: Vantage 250 Traditional Summerhouse

Summer house did meet my expectatios and looks very nice now built, roofed with Cedar shingles it looks great. Delivery was good, Polish driver was very friendly and courteous. Small damage to some deleicate item this was OK and easily fixed. Biggest dissapoint was the rough finish on some of the components,The manufacturing plant clearly does not replace it cutters when needed. Other than that very satisfied

Sue Priest

Product: SquirrelFort Climbing Tower

We bought the squirrel fort for our twin girls' 2nd birthday. It was a gamble as they are a little young but they love it. They can't stop going on the slide; it is very exciting, fast and slippy. There is nothing worse than a non-slippy slide; this one is brilliant. My husband put it up by himself over a weekend. Knowing that the wood has been pressure treated is a weight off our minds - one less thing to maintain.

Product: Vantage 250 Traditional Summerhouse

After much consideration were decided to go ahead and purchase the Vantage 250,we were a little apprehensive about buying on-line from a company we new nothing about-but pleased to say we are delighted. The delivery man`Peter` was great,very helpful a real pleasure to speak to,and our joiner who assembled it,said the materials were very good,a couple of little issues with the door not fitting quite right,and also the window, but nothing really to complain about. Would definitely reccomend the company.Just waiting for my sofa,laterns,and having the floor laminated- and also a bottle of Gin!!Many Thanks.x

Mike Edmunds

Product: Vantage 250 Traditional Summerhouse

We are very pleased indeed with the summerhouse. Built during the Christmas holidays and painted during the recent dry weather. Easy to erect (two people needed for about 2 hours) but otherwise can be done by one person. Making a level hexagonal base was the hardest part. Looks good with external willow paint. Now ready for afternoon tea and final fitting out with wall seat. Highly reccomended, stylish and good value!

Richard Bonner

Product: Vantage 300 Traditional Summerhouse

A decent product that looks attractive and proved a great addition and focal point in our garden. However, at some points during the build the instructions were rather vague and unhelpful e.g.the two small panels either side of the doors need holes to be drilled through one vertical so that the screw can pass through to the upright that needs to be secured. Allow plenty of time to cut and secure the roof tiles and rather than screw the top cowling down through the tiles and into the timbers, buy a length of threaded stud pierce through lining from below through the cowl and secure into ball. Secure tightly with nut from inside,this looks better and is water tight (no holes through the tiles). Do not forget to remove the thin plastic membrane from the tar strip on the tiles (not mentioned in instructions). Do not use screws to fit window/door bars it looks ugly; use panel pins, also be prepared to chisel cut-outs to fit as they are not a perfect fit.
