Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. They particularly appreciate the high level of service provided and the efficiency of the delivery service. Consumers have also highlighted the helpfulness and friendliness of the staff, considering them an asset to the company. However, opinions on product quality are mixed, with no clear consensus. Some consumers have reported issues with products, such as receiving damaged items or experiencing malfunctions shortly after purchase. Despite these issues, many reviewers commend the company's efforts to resolve problems quickly and professionally, often sending replacements promptly.

Disappointing service snd bad quality of the equipment

The item which was purchased stopped working in two days time. The technical department team was to slow to respond to the issue and it took about one week to arrange the item collection. Prior to that the advise given to the customer how to repair the item it was inadequate and prolong the time for the return. I am sad that big companies they do t take good enough care about their customers. In fact the item was returned yesterday but I have not received dived any communication about the refund !
Thank you

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, Jovita. We’re genuinely sorry to hear how disappointed you feel about your experience.

For clarity for those reading this review, we’d like to outline the timeline. You contacted us on 28 January to report a fault, and our technical team responded the same day to understand the issue and explore the quickest possible resolution. As with many electrical catering items, initial troubleshooting was suggested in line with manufacturer guidance, however once you advised you were not comfortable proceeding, we immediately agreed to arrange a collection and refund.

The unit was collected and received back with us at approximately 2pm on Friday 6 February. Your review was posted either that same day or shortly after. Unfortunately, refunds cannot be processed instantly upon receipt; items must first be checked in and logged by our returns team, which typically takes a short processing period.

We completely understand how frustrating it is when equipment doesn’t perform as expected, particularly in a professional environment, and we regret that this situation caused you inconvenience. Your refund is being handled in line with our standard process, and our team remains available should you need any further clarification.

Excellent company to deal with

Excellent company to deal with. Called them at 5 to 5 and spoke to Matthew to see if we placed an order could we still get it next day delivery to Scotland. He confirmed with the warehouse that it shouldn’t be a problem and called back 10 minutes later to let us know it was all set. Great product at a fraction of the price to the company we would normally go to for our catering equipment. This was our first order and we wouldn’t hesitate to order again. Cheers to Matthew and ecatering it was a pleasure to order from you.
