I purchased these Showa 451 Safety Gloves for a friend following his recommendation. I have to say that they live up to their reputation for being rugged, warm, protective and generous in size. The price point is acceptable and delivery was swift. All in all the perfect protection for working hands.

I have owned a pair of first generation LS50W speakers since early 2018 and found them to be everything anyone could wish for without the hassle of multiple entertainment units. No need for record deck, tape deck, CD machine or anything else all of which have been incorporated into one brilliant package of home entertainment that can be driven by phone, laptop and tablet. In my time of ownership there has only been one problem which was sorted via e-mail after contacting the company through their web page help line. In short, the perfect entertainment package that just goes on working without issues.

In these times of austerity we are, like everyone else, looking for the best food prices without compromising quality so, with that in mind we are sampling the "nectar" card and all that it claims to provide by way of customer cost support at Sainsbury's. This week we completed our second consecutive shop and are pleased with the produce quality and the "nectar" card discount applied at the till but, I feel that there must be room for price movement at all levels and I hope that companies like Sainsbury's could be leaders in this direction.

Just the best insurance for 'bikers', by 'bikers' who understand 'bikers' and their needs. Great cover, lots of discount offers on 'biker' associated events and products, including training, riding tips, security, servicing and a host of other stuff but, the best bit is that their telephone agents are real people who talk to you, answer your questions and get you the best deal.

I was experiencing silly quotes for insurance, I accepted that there had been a couple of minor incidents within the five year information window but, the quotes were well outside what would be expected with protected no-claims. An application to Budget revealed the problem which was incorrect information held on my claims record. A telephone call with one of the Budget representatives allowed me to explain the situation which was then used to correct my claims record. I'm now fully covered at a great price thanks to the efforts of Budget and their lady on the help-line telephone.
Thank You.

Ryobi are providing an excellent range of tools that are perfect for the DIY worker and tough enough for the professional. Backed up by a 3year warranty, super delivery service and almost never ending promotions campaigns over the year, it would be hard to actually find fault with the product, the price, the quality and the support.

Once again I received excellent service from Peter Jackson the Jeweller in their Preston store. It is over forty years since we first purchased an engagement ring from Peter Jacksons and they are still our first stop for fine jewellery. This latest purchase was a silver necklace for my wife's Christmas present and I received all the help I needed with the choice and it was then gift wrapped and packaged to complete the sale. Many thanks to Assistant Manager, Sonam and greetings to Manager Emma, who I missed on this last visit. 11-12-2024

Another pathetic parcel delivery service, my address is a 42acre activity centre site in Chorley and has been serviced by all major service providers for the past 24 years and yet ALL of the major Courier Services are unable to find it and yet again, I'm left waiting for a delivery before reading "unable to find address, returned to depot" Pathetic, pathetic, pathetic

Perfect service, the shop assistant talked me through the available alternative choices to my wife's preferred fragrances and I feel that the request of a new scent for Christmas will be loved, liked and enjoyed.
Thank You Fragrance Shop, Chorley.

As always, the jewellery is beautiful and of excellent quality. The complete service from ordering to delivery was faultless however, here is the sting in the tail...... I ordered two pieces as presents for two different people, one as a Christmas present and one as a Birthday present BUT, both pieces came in only ONE box, how do I sort this?????

We visited the Preston Store to take advantage of the RST Maverick textile jacket and jeans on offer in the sale with 35% reduction. The staff were on the ball and helpful in every way possible, bringing out both sets on offer and standing by while I did the catwalk show to my wife in order to get her approval to purchase. There turned out to be a problem with the zip on the jacket of my choice BUT, this wasn't a problem, I was assured that a new and complete set would be delivered via courier the following day should I want to complete the purchase. In conclusion, a great product with perfect sizing and CE armour, super staff at Sportsbikeshop and next day delivery to my door. What more could I ask for???

A very friendly, professional and supportive dental practice. Adam is my Dentist and Rebecca is my Hygienist, both are doing a tremendous job keeping my mouth in order. Due to a recent health issue that could impact on my dental treatment, both Adam and Rebecca are working together to try and formulate a treatment plan that will provide me with the best possible options of dental health care during the treatment of my other health issue. Excellent continued support.

Insurance for Bikers by Bikers.
I am now into the third year of bike insurance with Bennetts and have to admit that the policy, price, communication and support is second to none. I would also like to pass on a great big THANK YOU to telephone agent Jane for sorting out my new policy for 2024/25, her help was really appreciated.
Kind Regards
Mark S Clifford

Easy to deal with, prices are fair and Unity support scouting. There are issues with communication especially reference numbers for payments and information between departments. Having said that, the staff go one step beyond to get it right.

My wife and I have been clients of Synergy Dental Clinic-Adlington since they took over the practice and we have found them to be very professional, attentive, helpful and understanding. My Dentist is Adam and my Hygienist is Rebecca, the perfect duo for oral health care. The excellent service is supported by very friendly reception and dental assistant staff and an appointment system that actually works.

We purchased the new Beko hob to replace our old one which was well past its sell by date. As we already own another Beko appliance it seemed logical to stick with what we know and take advantage of the extended warranty along with an uncluttered touch control work area. The price, quality, warranty and service all contributed to our choice.

This was my second order placed with Blinds 2go so, I think that speaks for itself. The quality is excellent and the prices are better than competitive, add to this failsafe measuring instructions, easy to follow fitting instructions and delivery when promised and you get perfection. Thank You Blinds 2go.

SMARTY
Just brilliant, uncomplicated, contract free, competitive priced, excellent coverage. This provider can teach the big boys a thing or two about customer care and none contractual services at a realistic price with hassle free sign up.

This is the first time I have used Sportsbikeshop which, when you consider I've been biking for almost 60 years, it's unacceptable that I had never even heard of them. Today I took delivery of a brand new pair of biker boots, desperately needed as my old ones were well past their sell by date years ago. The new boots are brilliant, the quality is superb, the fit is spot on and the price made me very happy. I ordered yesterday, they were delivered today and I was out on the bike with them before the six o'clock news had time to chime.
Thank You, I'll be back.

We had a fabulous 3-day/2-night stay at the Cross Keys Hotel, Guisborough, where we enjoyed fine dinning, a well stocked bar, fantastic staff, beautiful rooms and all in a fantastic setting. From arrival to departure, all of our needs were attended, nothing was too much trouble for the professional and friendly hotel staff. Situated on the main A171, the hotel provided easy access to many of the North East coastal resorts such as Whitby and Saltburn-by-the sea. We are looking forward to a return visit.
