...no circumstances buy anything from Boots Kitchen Appliances. I bought a cooker online and was to have it delivered on a Saturday. They informed me of a 4 hour delivery slot on the previous day. It was to be delivered between 7am and 11am. I was called on 7am to inform me they were on their way. They arrived at 8am and got me out of bed.

On each occasion I had to compensate an electrician who I had retained to install it. I am now six weeks without a cooker and it is still ongoing. DO NOT BUY FROM BOOTS KITCHEN APPLIANCES. ...

Advantages: Convenient web site to order from. Nothing else. Disadvantages: Worst delivery experience - many others do it better, buy anywhere else!
Ordering the product went very smoothly - that's where the smooth experience ended. 2 days before delivery I was phoned and told it would be delivered on time, then they tried to sell me an extended warranty - I declined! The day before delivery they phoned again to say there was a problem and my order would be delayed several weeks! The day before the new delivery date I was given a 4 hour time slot - 7am - 11am. (It was an automated call, but it ... ...that!! I waited, nothing came. I phoned at 11.15 - driver not available. I phoned at 1pm - driver delayed, they'll try and get to me by 3pm!! I'll update this if my washer ever turns up. Customer services were polite but didn't offer anything other than an apology both times they let me down. ...

On further checking I was told that this was not the case, but that I would have to wait three weeks for delivery. I waited; ... ...expensive) product and Boots said they would give me a discount to compensate me. Despite regular chasing and promises this has never arrived.
