Excellent customer service and professionalism. Fast delivery. Trustworthy shop. I recommend!
I placed order on Saturday morning , received my items today(Tuesday). Delivery fast, haven’t unpack my items yet.
Super well packed and arrived within 48 hours.
I was getting tired of running out of perlite during the busy growing season and I saw this massive bag that cost not a lot more than the standard bag, yet you get five times as much. You might be thinking its too good a price and the quality would be lacking, but I can assure you, as with every other product I've purchased from The Garden Shop over the last decade, as a gardener of two rural acres, they have never dissapointed and every product is quality
Bag was damaged and taped up, not sure if any of the contents were missing although it appeared so but would have been negligible . Unable to tell if the tapping had been done prior to shipping or during transit [STAFF NOTE] Apologies, something must have happened after if left our warehouse. If you feel there are more than 'negligible' contents missing, please get in touch via our contact us page.
Top shop super fast transaction Product is in perfect quality. Highly Recomended
Arrived in good time. Very good value
Best value perlite!
