"When things go south.... They are terrible" We went to B&Q and used their bathroom design service to specify a new bathroom. Our bathroom is small so we were interested in the slim-fit style fitted units... The sales assistant sold us on a bathroom and only at the order confirmation stage discovered the "Tyler" slim sink was discontinued for advanced ordering... However as luck would have it (!?!) one was in stock at another Southampton store - the bathroom supervisor would pick it up on her way in to work at B&Q Hedge End and we could collect it from there. Fast forward two weeks... The rest of the bathroom has been delivered.... The fitters get to the end of the installation, offer up the sink and it's the WIDE version... Visit to B&Q Hedge End... "This sink is discontinued" says the bathroom department..."but you have one on display?" Says I, "We cannot touch the displays" says "Ray" ( allegedly the store manager... Who was too embarrassed to give a surname so he could've been the cleaner....) "But we have no bathroom", says I..... "Er...." Says he. I'm not a retail guru but I would've thought a display for a DISCONTINUED PRODUCT didn't really have much value - whereas a disgruntled customer WITH NO BATHROOM was more important... However it would seem B&Q store managers have the decision making authority of weasels.... So - if the quality of a supplier is judged by how they handle problems, I would say B&Q were ****
