Bathroom installation had poor workmanship, multiple failures and unresolved issues.
“poor workmanship, unprofessional conduct, and an utter failure to resolve critical issues.”
Reviews show a clear pattern: many customers commend named store staff and design consultants for helpful, detailed service. Recurrent issues centre on delivery partners and a few installation jobs that customers found unsatisfactory. If you plan to buy fitted products or book installation, get written delivery arrangements, installation warranties and inspect goods on arrival. For shopping or design appointments, expect attentive in‑store support but check delivery and installation terms in advance.

Many customers describe smooth in‑store appointments, sign‑ups and website resources; a smaller group report frustrating delivery or site announcements.
There are isolated positive mentions of product range, but several reports describe damaged deliveries and inadequate installation workmanship.
