We had a failure of our microwave cooker which was unrepairable despite being only few months beyond warranty. It was clearly a design fault which is well documented in online forums. Hughes gave us a... See more

I was pleased with everything to do with buying my Microwave the delivery was on time. Well wrapped and just as described. Price very good. Thank you.

Great price (previous model to latest, but so what?). Miele quality and good reviews for cordless vac. Delivery was quick - continue to use DPD Hughes,They are the best!
Easy to order ,delivery on time, washing machine working well would recommend
I ordered a fridge/freezer, which was an excellent price. The day before delivery I realised it was too big. I contacted Hughes and explained the situation. Without hesitation they cancelled delivery and gave me a full refund.
Having purchased numerous items over the past 18 months, I encountered a faulty appliance that shed light on the subpar customer service at the Norwich Hughes store.
Despite weeks of attempts to address the issue through calls and visits from Pacifica, I resorted to visiting the store to request a replacement.
A awful male staff member rudely dismissed my request leaning over the counter into my personal space and incorrectly stating that I had no consumer rights (contrary to the Consumer Rights Act 2015) and insisting I obtain details including up lift numbers (not an easy task wasting hours trying to do ) from the manufacturer before any action could be taken.
After several days of contacting the head office via email, arrangements were finally made to collect the defective appliance a week later (with no sense of urgency), offering only a partial refund considering my use of the appliance for 18 months.
An apology was issued for the misinformation provided by the staff member, who was not the only one guilty as two others present failed to correct him, revealing their lack of knowledge on the matter.
My advice is to not be misled by this establishment - they may readily sell you products, but offer no support when things go awry.
Really cool ppl delivered it helpful.. the machine is amazing for the price
I’m really not happy, I paid for next day delivery. I received a delivery fail notification. The delivery was cancelled before my time slot. There was no call as per the order confirmation. I rang the delivery partner, they didn’t know where my parcel was. 3hours later I was told the driver had an emergency and my delivery was rescheduled 5 days after the first order. I’ve raised the issue with Hughes and no one has bothered to respond in a suitable time frame. I’m yet to receive my delivery. I really think this is a dreadful company for not trying to remedy the situation.
Very straightforward and easy to order. Delivery was prompt and only took a few days. Delivery men were very polite and on time. Would highly recommend and will be using Hughes again for any electrical items. Thank you to all involved.
Easy to order with offers, delivered on time, helpful and polite delivery guys

First fridge freezer arrived damaged which wasn't noticed untill delivery men (not Hughes own) had gone.
Sarah from customer service was brilliant, after I had explained the damage she immediately sauced another one just requesting for me to email photos of the damage. Then phoned me to check the delivery date was ok.
Within 3 days another one was delivered by a great Hughes team who made sure all was well before they left

Appalling service. Incompetent staff. Tried to rent a washer dryer machine from Hughes. 1st attempt- delivered a faulty machine-cracked piping I was told. 2nd attempt- delivered and installed a washing machine not a washer dryer. Very apologetic but made no attempt to ensure quick resolution but getting the order correct and delivered the next day. I am disabled and have limited mobility. No other means of cleaning clothes except to hand wash but no drying facilities. Hughes seem uninterested in ensuring quality service to disabled people. Avoid!!!!

Simply a straightforward purchase.
Only catch was DPD delivering to the wrong house initially.
Equipment works very well.
