Bit of a strange one. Had a couple of tools delivered no problem. Most recently had one tool arrive not in the original packaging missing the usually papers/instructions. It was packaged extremely poorly (chucked in a box with a small plastic air bag) and was subsequently damaged on arrival. They accepted the return but completely ignored any concerns about the state of the order. Paid more for another one from Screwfix but it was definitely new and not a return.

Hello Tom, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review, we value all customer feedback. We're truly surprised to hear that your item arrived in a less than perfect condition. We would like to reassure you that we only sell brand new, UK supplied & genuine products directly sourced from the manufacturer. Occasionally some products are supplied in bulk & packaged in our warehouse. There is a fine line between provided too much and too little packaging when considering the effects excess packaging has on the environment. With the feedback you had originally provided us with, we are now able to package these more securely. Upon investigating your issue, we can see that a refund had been actioned as priority due to the damaged item you had received. We hope the above helps and if you have any further queries, please don’t hesitate to contact our dedicated Customer Support Team.

My order was 10 days late, the courier firm was rubbish, PWT did not handle the problem very well at all and have not come up with a sensible reason or answer, i spent near £200 on items and the communication i had between myself and the co was very poor.

Paid extra for next day delivery. DPD gave 3 hour time window, ensured I was at home, but as a back up gave safe place instructions. 1 hour into time slot received DPD message that the driver had missed us! Tried to contact power tools to cancel the order, put in queue for 10 minutes then automotive message "can't take your call because no one is in work" blaming Covid. Parcel delivered following day by same driver, when asked why he never delivered yesterday, he said road blocked by lorry, a blatant lie. Will never use Power Tools again.

Hello Iancu, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review, we value all customer feedback. We're surprised to hear that you've received the wrong case with your kit.

I can not review this grinder as it did not arrive! The delivery company texted me to say it would arrive on the Monday. Unfortunately it didn’t so contacted power tool world by email. The next day I had a PayPal refund without any explanation as to why it didn’t arrive. I have brought from power tool world in the past and have been very happy. Would I use them again?

Their dispatch ware house is near where i live so i asked if i could collect they said no but could have next day delivery. the next day they didn't deliver ( that cost me over £200 for a missed deadline) so yet again i asked if i could collect given how close their warehouse is. they then said it had already been dispatched at 1pm . at just after 7pm i get a notification from DPD to tell me that they had just collected the item and given that they advertise next day delivery if ordered before 7pm so I'm gonna assume they lied. oh yeah that cost me another dead line too. Do NOT trust them to honour their delivery dates as the £10 i tried to save using them cost me far more in reputation and money and even after i informed them of my dire situation and time sensitivity they chose to lie than rather allow me to collect direct from their warehouse. And please don't give me the "were sorry for the we feel you got a poor service reply to this " you knew and lied so . That says all i need to know
