Easy transaction, good price and fast delivery, thanks.
Well made and well designed shredder. Works well with not much noise and I'm confident it will last a long time as it was made in Germany.
Very quick service.
Overall - good and fast service.
Excellent service
prompt delivery
Excellent service. Machine arrived quickly with no problems at all. Also very competitive pricing compared to the same model available through other websites.
Great price, delivery and service. Thanks
Very quick delivery but was not told when dispatched or when it was being delivered so when I rang was told it was being sent on Thursday but had already been sent so staff who answer phones need to be better trained
Machine arrived in good order and comfortably within the 3 - 4 working days promised.
Quick delivery, smooth process.
Fast delivery. Uneventful.
Amazing service. Expected delivery in a few days. It was a surprise when it was delivered next day.
Well packed and protected ans arrived on time
Ordered a shredder at 3pm on 31st December 2023, the order was confirmed on 2nd January 2024 and delivered on 3rd January. The extras in the bundle were delivered first, and the shredder arrived within about half an hour later.
Everything was very well packaged and in perfect condition. I had reservations about the quality of the HSM B32 shredder, based entirely on how much the price was reduced; they were entirely unfounded!
I'm VERY impressed with both the service and the quality of the product. Don't just think about buying a shreddder from 'Shredding Machines.co.uk DO IT !
First time of using and was not disappointed. I would not think twice about using this company again.
Easy purchase process, although I got told off for using my card and not getting it invoiced... Quick delivery.
First time of dealing with ShreddingMachines and everything has gone well and there are no reasons why I wouldn't use them again - well done!
Shredder came on time, was packaged well. Website was easy to navigate and you had a lot of choice with different price points. I had gone to quite a few websites and ended up ordering here because of the range and competitive pricing. Thank you for helping me to find a decent shredder that is sensibly priced.
Ordered the shredder on line and the company provided the item within a couple of days. Great service. Other than that I can't comment
Really fast delivery. When I queried country of manufacture of product, I was immediately offered a return, however, as I needed a shredder, I accepted the company's offer of free oil and shredding bags as compensation. These arrived promptly.
My main comment is that four weeks on, the Web page for the shredder still suggests it was made in Germany. Please amend your Web page.
The product was delivered in the time stated.
Good price. Arrived on time. Good communication
Very efficient company.
Fast delivery thank you very much.
