Corner Summerhouse 082 - Shiplap, Georgian, Double Door

We received our summerhouse a few weeks ago and thought we would give some feedback.

We are basically very pleased with it and are enclosing a photo. The instructions were clear and it looks lovely.

Just a couple of problems. One if the rear panels seemed completely wrong. We definitely had it the right way up but nothing seemed to match up with the adjoining one. The slats also extended over the edge of the baton meaning that we couldn't butt it up next to the panel. We had to saw off the overhanging bits of wood which was not easy. Anyway it eventually fitted in and screwed together so got over that problem.

The other thing we should mention is the glazing. After breaking several pieces of glass trying to knock the tiny nails into the beading between the glass and the wood, we were getting quite annoyed. It also looked bad as the nails were splitting the wood. Then we had a brainwave. We stuck all the beading on with no more nails.....and got a wonderful neat finish with no more broken panes. Maybe this would be a better way of fitting the beading.

Anyway....we are very pleased and it is a superb product for the cost. It looks good and is a really lovely addition to the garden.

Dear Sir,

I recently purchased from your Company a summerhouse which I find to be excellent. The delivery was on time and was very carefully unloaded by your driver.

The quality of the woodwork of your product was perfect and we assembled it this weekend and very impressed with the finished result.

Thanking you to all your staff for their efficiency in the adminstration department.

Yours faithfully,

We took delivery of our 7 x 7 corner summerhouse on 1 May. We were very happy with your delivery service. Although you stated the building would take 14-21 days to arrive, it was delivered less than a week after ordering and we were kept informed throughout.

We found your instruction leaflet very easy to follow and the erection of the building went reasonably well. We were however, very disappointed with the quality of the window and door hinges which had no strength in them whatsoever. In addition, the door handle instructions were incorrect as they said to drill an 8mm hole to put the bar through but in actual fact the hole required was 12mm. The screws sent to fix the handle to the door were also too long for the thickness of the door and we had to go out and purchase our own.

Our other complaint was the quality of the window beading which was extremely poor, being of different thicknesses causing some to be proud of the door, most pieces were starting to split and some pieces weren't even long enough meaning there were slight gaps in some of the corners of the windows.

We do however, appreciate that this was not an expensive product and indeed, we would not have been happy if it had been more expensive. On the whole, we are happy with it, especially now that it has been painted in a bright colour.

Thank you.

Just completed my summerhouse. All parts were there and arrived undamaged. I live in Scotland in a small village and my house is at the end of a cul-de-sac with the road some distance from the road, but the delivery guys brought everything from the truck for me. It was delivered on time and with excellent service. Thank you.

Overall I'm pleased with the summer house. There were a few issues with the wood quality and the floor needed reinforcing. Fitting the roof was abit challenging, but got there in the end. I'd like to thank Jo for her excellent customer service in responding to my request for a new door as the original was warped. Overall as i said i am pleased with the product and feel it is good value for money. I trust you appreciate the feedback.

regards

we recently purchased one of your summerhouses and are extremely pleased with it. We have painted it a lovely country cream by cuprinol and it looks lovely. We would like to send you photographs and are sure you would sell even more if people could see it in this colour. If you would consider paying a fee we would gladly send you copies, it really does look lovely especially with the crazy pave step up to it.

Hi,

We recently bought a 8' x 8' Corner Summerhouse from you and wanted to let you know how delighted we are with the kit. We feel that the summerhouse is excellent value for money and we are particularly impressed with the quality of the finish for a summerhouse in this price bracket. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone in our area. Now almost complete, the summerhouse has been admired by our neighbours on all sides.

We have only to add the door latch/handle now but unfortunately we have lost the appropriate page of the instructions! I would be very grateful if you could either e-mail us the relelvant part of the instructions or even send us a photocopy by post just to allow us to complete the latch assembly?

With many thanks,

Yours sincerely,

Sue, Forfar, Angus, DD8, 8x8 Corner Summerhouse 082, 17th May 2010

EXTRA NOTE:- INSTRUCTIONS WERE POSTED ON 18th MAY.

Just had our 8x8 corner summerhouse delivered today, no problems looks good quality, but unfortunately the bag containing the instructions was ripped and the instructions have got wet!. Do you have an electronic version you can send via email?

EXTRA NOTE:- INSTRUCTIONS WERE SENT BY EMAIL ON 31st MARCH

Thank you for sending me my order confirmation by royal mail. Someone must have put in some extra work on our behalf, and I'll apologise for making that necessary. I thought it unusual that I was not requested to enter an email address, but I just missed that input; I wasn't trying to be awkward or make a point etc.

We saw a similar product in a local showroom, but your's looks just as nice, and much better value for money; so we are looking forward to receiving it next month.

Thank you again for your service.

Regards
