Unhelpful staff

My 90 year old father went into the tool section recently and just needed a blade, it was just before closing but it was a very quick sale. Unfortunately the person behind the counter was rude and very unhelpful yes he probably wanted to go home but my dad was literally in the shop a few minutes. If he hadn't needed this blade he would have walked out but certainly will think about going there again.

Reply from Yandle & Sons Ltd

I'm very sorry to read about your father's recent experience - I have reached out to you directly to offer a personal apology. Although your visit was at closing time and our team was wrapping up for the day, that is no excuse for poor service. It is disappointing to know we fell short on this occasion. I truly hope your father will consider giving us another try.
Kind regards,
Adam

Great company to deal with

I have dealt with Handles a couple of times now. I love scrollsaw working and can get through blades quickly if I get too far into a job. I need replacement blades quickly and Handles has always given fast and great service

Replacement bench slats…

I ordered a sapele replacement bench slat set which arrived quickly. The wood was selected carefully and finished well. One slat was damaged in transit and I received a replacement the next day. The bench is as good as new again. Staff were very helpful throughout.

Fantastic, friendly and knowledgeable service

FAO Dan (Machinery Sales).
I came into Yandles on Saturday afternoon, and ended up purchasing a Record Power PT310HB Planer/Thicknesser. This was delivered yesterday afternoon, unpackaged and tested yesterday evening.
The entire process was a pleasant experience, and I am really pleased with both the quality of the product and the superb finish of machined items. The beds will need very slight tweaking, and a minute adjustment to the fence is called for, but superb.
I received a warm and friendly welcome at Yandles, and will definitely be back again.

After visiting for the first time…

After visiting for the first time yesterday, I just had to place a review.
I found the whole experience very enjoyable the staff were friendly and helpful.
The coffee shop was so charming and cream tea excellent.
The arts and craft area is definitely worth a visit if you're into any sort of art for supplies.
If you need anything to do with wood or tools for such an hobby definitely visit that area too.

Fantastic service & a fantastic price
I needed this tool for a job next day, emailed Yandle & Sons to ask if I ordered could the goods could it be despatched so I received it next day.
Ashlea emailed straight back and confirmed it could be despatched same day ... I ordered straightaway, it arrived the next morning.
Brilliant service and, for the money a great tool ... Li-on Battery powered Multi Tool for less than £ 30, more than double the price anywhere else!!
Yandle & their products ... highly recommended ... THANK YOU
