“It's a shame, this bin store is quite flimsy and it arrived with at least one piece missing. It wasn't very well painted and had chips and splinters on many of the parts. Not very good value.”

“I’m unable to give an accurate review of the bin store as following three deliveries, I am still not in possession of all the parts, therefore I’m am basing my one star review in the customer service received from garden street. I was advised I would be contacted by the courier to arrange a delivery time. I wasn’t. Luckily I was home when delivery No 1. arrived but I rejected this as it was visibly damaged through the inadequate packaging. The delivery driver stated this is a frequent occurrence. I was then informed a replacement would be sent (7-10 days delivery time) I was again told I would be contacted by the courier. I was not; I was simply told it would be arriving with less than 24hrs notice. I waited in 0800-1600 for this and when I opened the packaging, guess what? Another damaged part as well as two missing parts! Third time lucky and no contact from the courier whatsoever and returned home to find a package front and centre in my doorstep. No attempt to conceal it, no attempt to leave with neighbours. You’d think after two previous delivery attempts, someone would quality control the package this time. Wrong. One of the replacement items is inexplicably the wrong size! I am still awaiting the correct part, with the usual 7-10 days delivery wait. I complained via email and asked to be compensated for the amount of time I’ve had to give in order to wait home for delivery of this item but my request clearly doesn’t even appear suitable for a reply as it’s been completely ignored. Instead, I received a one line email saying sorry. I can comfortably say I wouldn’t recommend buying from Garden Street to my worst enemy, and judging by the other negative reviews on google, it’s a wonder they’re still trading.”

“It is a substantial piece of garden furniture that takes some hours to assemble, an electric screwdriver is essential. I used PVA glue on some joints for added rigidity. It pays to identify and lay all the parts out, particularly the different fixings, prior to starting. There are some issues with the kit which arrives in two packages as received: 1) Many small wood parts were stuck to the larger panels by the grey wash, the parts must have been packed whilst the wash was wet 2) There was some minor damage to the surface of some parts and I requested the spec of the wash to touch up - didn't receive it but instead a small unmarked bottle turned up in the post. 3) Instructions call for the store to be stood on a protective (sacrifical?) plinth, but a call to Rowlinson resulted in me being told that this wasn't necessary 4) Instructions stated position for the lifting chains is stupid and I moved the mounting to the front rail of the lids 5) Roundhead screws were supplied for the countersunk holes in the handles. Overall though the end result is pleasing and does a fine job of disguising the awful plastic bins”

“I was told 'some self assembly required'. It took an experienced builder 2 hrs and then he didn't have time to fix the chains on. The structure is flimsy and has no stand so when on uneven ground the doors do not close smoothly. Not worth the money.”
