Quick delivery good quality
We bought a larger 5x6 shade sail in grey for shade over an outdoor paved area and back of house.
It was delivered really quickly
It is a lovely quality
The light grey colour has the shade feel not oppressive and cooler than a darker colour still allowing light but not heat into our kitchen area.
Very happy with it.

A bit of assembly required but not too hard to put it all together. The hard bit comes afterwards.... It certainly gives a workout to all parts of your body if configured to or a much softer workout if you wind the tension right off and use the handles in the fixed position. I have had 2 strokes so have to keep my limb strength topped up all the time. This is a convenient way of achieving what I need and I can watch TV while working out.

We could not believe the quick turnaround and we have no complaints whatsoever

We could not believe the quick turnaround and we have no complaints whatsoever. The planter box was very easy to set up due to the predrilled holes and the brackets. The colour was ideal as it was the same colour as our fence.

This Recliner was so easy to assemble

This Recliner was so easy to assemble. I was a little concerned when it was delivered in a box. But once I cut the box cardboard away, I realised it was in two parts. Making it easy to carry upstairs and through narrow doors. Once inside a leaflet showed how attach top to bottom in one easy slide and click. Then attaching the wiring ( colour coded )) was so easy. I plugged it in and BLISS! The seat warmers are beautiful! Takes away the cold and aching. And the hard held unit to change vibration and heat is a breeze to use. Beautifully made. And EXACTLY as advertised! You will love it!
