Excellent service and guidance on what product to buy. Staff were both professional and productive in meeting my requirements. The product wasn't what I would have bought on my own but I'm extremely happy with the outcome.

Richer Sounds Maidstone advice

Phoned Richer Sounds Maidstone to ask for advice on TV replacement as my old one was failing ( display gone blue ). I spoke with Joe who kindly advised me on options in my price bracket. I purchased a UK produced Cello 55 inch TV based on his advice. Although not a normal mainstream brand this TV is excellent for my needs and has a 7 year guarantee and is UK produced. So good advice and good product.

Highly Recommended!

I would just like to say how great my experience was when buying my new Sony Bravia 7 TV from Ben at the Maidstone branch. His friendly, no-quibble service was exemplary, checking & agreeing a price match to a much lower clearance price I had found elsewhere. Plus, there is Richer Sounds' brilliant 6 year warranty. Ben also arranged an immediate replacement when the first TV arrived with an issue with its anti-glare screen coating. Within days they had collected and replaced it and I'm loving my new TV. I cannot recommend Richer Sounds highly enough.

After an order.

After an order, and a mistake on my behalf in relation to projector throw, these guys reimbursed without issue. The phone assistance and staff were incredible all round and I wouldn’t hesitate to return in the future.

Less Tech speak please. !

I must say. I walked in shop door, intending to buy the LG I had chosen.
As I had purchased previously !
Salesman was good. But baffled me me with “ Tech speak “
That went over my head. Lol

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and for the constructive feedback.

We’re all a bit guilty of getting carried away when we’re passionate about the products, so it’s a good reminder for us to keep things clear and easy to follow, and I've already fed this back to the store to take on board.

Thanks again for your custom, and we hope to see you again soon (and aim for that full five stars next time!).

LG 55" COLOUR TV I received complete satisfaction…

I received complete satisfaction -within two days-after reporting a problem with my Remote Control.
The polite, friendly, helpful, service during my phone call and the next day receiving a replacement, despatched by post, rectifified the fault. I am also very pleased with my LG TV, the picture & definition is fantastic. Many thanks to the helpful Richer Sounds team assisting in a speedy result.

Helpful Advice and Hassle Free Exchange

I bought an amplifier online which I needed to subsequently needed to exchange for an alternative that better met my needs. Staff were most helpful in advising on the alternative and making the exchange as smooth and problem free as possible.
