I am satisfied with the shopping experience as I found something I was somewhat happy with. However, when delivered one of the pieces was broken and customer service advised to use superglue on it which is not very advisable. They then offered a refund of £17 which is not enough considering I had paid over £5 for insurance and damage cover.

ALISTAIR PORTER AND LI SHENG ARE THIEVES. Costway have **helped themselves to £179.95 from my bank account** and then acted like my order simply vanished into thin air. No order confirmation. No email. No reference number. No product. Just my money — **gone**. After **numerous phone calls**, Costway repeatedly claim they "can't find" my order. Funny, because my **bank has no trouble finding it**. They've confirmed: * The payment was **successfully taken** * The exact **time of purchase** * An **authorisation code** proving Costway received the money Yet Costway somehow have **no record of taking £179.95**. So which is it — a system so broken it loses paid orders, or a company happy to take money with zero accountability? Customer service is a masterclass in incompetence: endless calls, no answers, no ownership, and absolutely no urgency to return money they took without delivering anything. I've now had to escalate this with my bank because Costway are either **unable or unwilling** to resolve a problem they caused. Paying nearly **£180** to be gaslit and ignored is not shopping — it's a warning.

Brilliant service, this play kitchen is a must have to any little girl. It took me a while to assemble as it is a lot of little pieces but it is very easy and enjoyable. My daughter loves it. Thank you

Easy to order and quick to be delivered
November 18, 2022

Good overall experience. Good value for money. Only down side is the visible screws on the unit are large and a bit unsightly but for the price I paid I really can't complain.

Stacking stools
November 15, 2022

Lovely stools really pleased with them they are a classic and great for a small space.
I'm glad I had someone in to screw them together I wasn't anticipating that. Would have taken forever with the alun key supplied.
Delivery really quick.

Wrong item received
December 15, 2022

Initially received the wrong item, which was a smaller version of what I had ordered so it took me a moment to notice. I had to send the details over via email and then they arranged collection with me and replaced the original item. The process meant my item arrived with me around 2 weeks after I initially should have received it and it meant waiting in for couriers multiple times.

Nice step ladder
November 14, 2022

The step ladder is nice and tall enough to reach high ceilings which is great but wish it already came with little holes where we are supposed to place the screws so we didn't have to measure to make sure things are aligned etc
