Very reluctant to honour a warranty. Said there was only one year BUT there was TWO, so I got my refund after a lot of hassle.

As a person who has been in the premises on a visit and what can I say but wow. Staff found to be polite and helpful, products found to be top quality products. This is a place to revisit on any occasion for electrical goods. I highly recommend the premises to anyone wanting anything to do with electrical goods. So ladies and gentlemen just what do I have to say but wow.
