3m wide outdoor blind. I have given the review 4* only because the product was quite cheap compared to alternatives. As others have said, despatched straight away but took 3/4 days to reach the courier, after that arrived quite quickly via Evri, well packed and undamaged. The blind itself was in 3 parts, a bit flimsy but then it was fairly cheap to buy. The instructions are difficult, mainly diagrams which in themselves are quite confusing. I consider myself more than adequate at DIY but it still took me longer than expected to work out, assemble and install. The end product okay for my needs, as someone else commented at 3m and 3 sections it bows in the middle dropping around 25mm. It's okay but I'm not expecting it to last for years.
This is one of the worst companies I’ve ever dealt with. Avoid at all cost. Your order will be either wrong or poor quality. When you try and return an item, they will try and make you pay for the return. If you ask for a collection, they will offer you money off and tell you to give the item away. This sort of company is sucking the life out of our planet and wasting the world’s resources. I’m sure the items are from very questionable factories with poorly paid workers. I really hope the horrible people who own the company get the bad karma they deserve!!!

I'm very pleased with the gazebo and also the ordering and delivery process. I was looking for a lightweight but sturdy canopy for a family event because the hiring of another option fell through . So it was last minute, but It arrived in perfect time - a day before we needed it..It did take 3 of us to put it up, so it would have been a struggle with 2, but the pop-up design was quite straightforward and the tent looked great.

Without a shadow of a doubt, the worst company I’ve come across. Don’t dispatch orders for days, items are shoddy and often damaged and there is zero customer service. They don’t respond to messages and don’t refund for faulty goods that are returned to them. Stay away!

I am absolutely delighted with this product. From the initial order to construction everything went smoothly. Quality product

Lucky to be getting 1 star.
I made a purchase through Robert Dyas.
They claim that the order was sent days ago but according to Evri they haven’t received the package.
I’ve been advised there’s nothing that can be done until I receive the package this is after asking for a refund.
How long am I supposed to wait for a package from a courier who say they do not have the package?
Ever so frustrating.

Lovely chest. Just what we wanted.
Delivery communication was scant.
Not sure the product description made it clear this was, in fact, flat pack requiring construction. Inevitably in flat pack items several screw holes did not align properly. One component of the chest was broken, my husband fix this as we couldn't face the rigmarole of returning the goods.
All of this surprising, and a tad disappointing, at the price point.
We are happy with the finished product.

Order was delayed and created some problems to arrange for someone to collect for me with being away after the expected delivery date.

I really wish I had checked TrustPilot before buying
The bed is missing a part
Customer "Support" is a chatbot that sends you in endless circles
When connected to 2 humans, both terminated the chat. The second was totally and utterly unacceptable as they asked for order number then terminated the chat in the short time it took to cut and paste it.
I am left needing a bed Wednesday and the best they can offer is to transfer to a team who will email me about it on Wednesday. They have the SKU code and the part I need. Why could it not have been put in the post today or tomorrow instead of passing it to a team who need 48 hours to engage with me by email?

Poor. Product was distorted when it arrived. No reply from vendor since supplying photos to support the request for exchange.
Buy at your own risk, be warned.

I originally bought a product through wayfair and seeing it was made by vidaxl I decided to buy more products directly. I ordered three blinds. They said it would be delivered in 2-5 working days. They send me delay notification 10 working days later. A further week passed. I contacted customer service and was told the items would be with me the following week. They send me 2 blinds and paddling pool cover! I contacted the immediately. I spoke to 1 robot and 2 team leader both who did not resolev the problem. I uploaded photos 3 times onto their portal. I contacted customer services who asked to send photos. I did and got no result. I have not tried twice on the order to select refund and been told they would contact me within 24 hours. Needless to say 4 days later I am still waiting. I'm going to try and claim through the bank as this is ridiculous customer service. NEVER order from this sham company

DO NOT USE THESE GUYS. I accidentally used a wrong email to checkout as guest and these guys have a non existent customer services open from 9-11 a.m LOL. When you speak to an agent online they aren't human but sub iq Apes that cannot understand basic English Grammar. The chat also automatically times out every 2 minutes which they have done on purpose. I have no idea how these clowns have got themselves in BandQ and other suppliers. It's not worth the cheap prices, the headache is too much.

Great product great price, just 2 issues the tent pegs are easily bendable to change them for thicker and one of the angle pole sections bent while being fitted.

Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced! Like absolutely useless. Missing parts from my order can’t help

Metal 7ft x 5ft shed. Quality of product was terrible. Instructions were extremely difficult to follow, panels were mix and matched. Pre-drilled holes didn't match, and doors didn't close
Returns process was the easiest part, but I had to pay £55 for returns.
I would avoid at all costs, even though it's relatively cheap, you will regret purchasing, spend more money and get quality

I ordered an outdoor table and chair set on Wayfair from VidaXL. Only chairs arrived. When I contacted Wayfair, they passed me to VidaXL, who then, I kid you not, CHANGED THEIR LISTING, and said I’d only bought chairs and no refund or return was possible. Thankfully, I had screenshots of the original listing, as well as my invoice and all emails about the order that all stated “with rectangular table.” Wayfair stepped in and organized the return and refund. I would never trust this company. Avoid at all costs!

Very happy with the CD shelves I ordered, they arrived within a week and are the perfect size and work great for DVDs, books and other decorations.
