Reviews for Garden Trends are mixed: many customers report good product quality, helpful staff and prompt deliveries, while others describe late or incorrect deliveries, poor communication and occasional product faults. Positive cases often mention named staff who rebooked deliveries or sourced alternatives quickly, and small faults resolved without difficulty. Negative reports frequently concern delivery handling (items left on the kerb, pallets) and delayed or absent communication. If you are considering buying, request written delivery and stock confirmation, check return and refund terms, and keep records of communications to support any after‑sales queries.

When I was looking for a casual dinning set for my backyard online, I got one from Garden Trends and it was quite disappointing.
I sincerely regret not having read the reviews before purchasing.
it was terrible shape.
It’s is not the size that was specified.
It was arranged for collection; I took the day off work so that the collection could be done (as indicated by the company); but, I did not show there.
I wasted another morning by calling, and then I had to go to the post office and pay for the return postage.
It was a complete waste of money and time.
I would not suggest this product.
