I bought an “unbreakable” hose from this company in late December 2025. It was used less than once a week before it split and was unusable in June 2026 (less than 6 months). I contacted the company to... See more

Excellent delivery- although I've not put the chairs together as yet.
I would like matching cushions and a parasol for my other Royal Garden patio set. How can I get in touch?

I paid for furniture early this month and have had no delivery information despite an email and a phone call. (After posting this review I have had a phone call and delivery will be in two days so have added a star.)

Hi Mrs Lamb,
Glad the carrier was able to get this sorted for you. It is important to note that you were towards the end of the advertised lead time so the carrier contact was imminent. We work closely with a small delivery team and appreciate you amending your rating.

Regards Royal Garden.

Good quality garden set

Bought very nice garden furniture set that was fairly easy to put together. Ordering was straightforward and delivery was in time frame that was confirmed to me over the phone. Reason for 4 stars and not 5 is because they ignore enquiry messages sent via a form on their website.

A great buy!

Good communication. Timely delivery. Pleased with garden set and cushions. We already have some other Royal Garden products and they have lasted many years. Still going strong so highly recommended.

DAMAGED TABLE

ONE OF THE PANELS OF THE ROYAL,GARDEN TABLE WAS DISTORTED.

THE RESPONSE OF THE TWO MEMBERS I DEALT WITH WAS EXEMPLERY.

IN FACT IT IS DIFFICULT TO FAULT THE WAY THEY HANDLED MY POBLEM. THEY WERE WELL COORDINATED, FRIENDLY AND VERY EFFICIENT. FIVE STARS IS NOT REALLY ADEQUATE

Great Experience

We had a very good experience shopping with Royal Garden. We had to phone to check which product was suitable for our existing Royal Garden products. The phone was answered promptly and the person was able to help us with our query. Delivery was organised as stated in the confirmation email We received when we bought the items. We were phoned to say which day delivery was due and told we could check on delivery day for an app or I ate time for the delivery. We did this and received an accurate time for our delivery.
This was. A very good service from Royal Garden.

Excellent service and product

Excellent customer service and furniture delivered on time, after we had been let down and fobbed off by a well known DIY store. The garden furniture set is great.

This garden furniture is built to last!

Ordered a table to go alongside various other Royal Garden items of garden furniture which we have enjoyed (and which has lived outside) for the past 14 years. The quality of the construction is as good as ever. It looks great alongside our existing equipment. These items of furniture are built to last!

Delayed delivery

Product appears fine, and as described on website.
Disappointing service, ordered on 21 June (showing as in stock), delivered 27 July.
Received phone call from Royal Garden on 29 June, explaining that two chairs were damaged and they were expecting more stock in 2 weeks. At this stage Royal Garden declined to deliver the undamaged part of the order. Delivery was expected to be made week commencing 20 July.
On 03 July, after being invited to review my product, and having posted my initial review, I very promptly received a phone call from Royal Garden. At this stage they no longer had any chairs available to deliver. I agreed to wait until July for the delivery.
It was delivered on 27 July.

Hi,
Sad to see this review. Please understand that any bad review really does hurt us. Unfortunately yes we are currently of stock of this item and as explained over the phone we have new stock arriving soon.
We have given you the option to give you a full refund if you are unhappy to wait this remains an option open to you, but as discussed again you are willing to wait.
Hopefully, when you get your order you will be willing to reconsider this review as our customer service and personal touch is something we take pride in.

Yours faithfully Royal Garden.


To further update this, the order has been delivered. We hope you enjoy your furniture and consider this matter resolved. Again sorry for the delay.

Yours faithfully Royal Garden.

Good product & good customer service

Had a real problem initially paying as didn't want to use PayPal but no other option. After contacting sales I was advised to use different internet browser and this worked. Straight forward after initial problem and very happy with the garden chair cushions.
