[Cordless Crazy]

As the title suggests...do you rate Screwfix? (bnearing in mind they ar

part of the B&Q chain)

Value for money or a rip-off with cheaper companies out there

Branded goods? Not bad. The rest? Cheap quaity and high price. They are not cheap anymore. Returns? Excellent.

Why the western world is dealing with them defeats reasoned argument. And yet I have tools from there.

Pretty good

IIUC they are now owned by the same parent company as B&Q rather than being part of the chain as such.

Generally good value, impressive range, and good customer service.

If you want cheaper then try

- run by ex SF directors I believe. Their basic tools however really are *basic* though!

[jgkgolf]

"ex SF directors" , what, you mean Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness?

Good to see , not so much guns into ploughshares as guns into power drills!

[Rob Morley]

Don't be silly, he means Stanley Kubrick, Ridley Scott, Terry Gilliam ...

Had a good experience with their customer services to day.

Had a rad which I bought 3 months ago and only just got round t hanging. Found out it was damaged and contacted Screwfix to give them piece of my mind. They changed it with out question!

Fair play to them
