Ordered a cardigan For my husband on the 18th December for Christmas it arrived after contacting them to say I no longer wanted it as it was now 14th January. I told them to refund my money. Well guess what they still sent it. I refuse to pay the returns and rang them to ask for a prepaid return label. Guess what....still not come ..probably won't do Will never order from them again. Terrible service. Avoid them.

My husband received a 100% lambswool crewneck jumper from Woolovers for Christmas and after 4 wearings the jumper has rubbed and balled very badly. This is the third sweater he has had from Woolovers and each has been progressively worse in quality. It is very disappointing given the number of women’s merino and cashmere sweaters I have bought over the years which have lasted and worn well. So what is going wrong with the current quality?

Last three merino with cashmere mix pullovers have pilled and not worn at all well! The quality of the merchandise has deteriorated a lot since I first bought woolovers products. A great pity but I will not be buying anymore!

Bought a jumper and after first wash it shrank and bobbled, I washed it as per instructions. They apparently received it on the Monday and with lightening speed had it laboratory tested and sent it back to me so that it arrived first thing Thursday morning. Must be the fastest laboratory test in the world!!! Or do they get so many they simply return immediatly to the poor customer, oh they do send a bobble comb with it!! So I am left with a bobbled and shrunken jumper which is fit for nothing. I also find that all their products are made in Chine, need one say any more. Very very disappointed with their response, they have just lost yet another customer and this ones friends and family

bought a jumper, washed it as per instructions on garment, it bobbled and shrank, sent it back, they apparently received it Monday, sent it to their laboratory for checking and in less than 24 hours posted it back to me, (it arrived early Thursday morning) enclosing a bobble comb and said I had washed it on wrong speed, as it was on the wool cycle I didn't control the speed. Also all their products appear to be made in China, that should say it all for any discerning customer. However, they must have the fastest laboratory testing facility, or do they just get so many they simply post them back with a bobble comb

Horrible customer service (call centre). The website makes the return sounds so easy. But later I found out that my returned item (bought from Australia) needs to be shipped from Australian to UK to be able to get refund, which take at least 6 weeks to process as the customer service person told me. And they don't have anyone helpful at the call centre. If I want to talk to anyone who know how the company works, I need to call at UK daytime, which would be evening in Australia. I think the company should make this explicit at the first place, rather than trick the customers.

I frequently receive your catalog. There are beautiful clothes, however I fell afraid to buy something: the reviews are not recent and a lot of complaints about quality and return service. Maybe, I will try buying something to see what happen.

Mittens are billed as ‘100% sheepskin’. The outer shell may well be but the inner lining is scratchy, artificial and the fibres fall out. Completely false advertising. In addition, the colour is nothing like that shown on website. Will have to return at my own expense. It also seems to be impossible to leave a review on their website, so interested to know where all the glowing review on the site come from!

I believe that Woolovers cashmeres are made in China- Google, but I'm not placing an order that comes from China. I would like to support the UK wool producers and woollen garment production or at least from Europe. I have just returned a 2 cashmere cardigans to John Lewis as they came from China. This can not be considered ethical or sustainable. CHECK the LABEL carefully! I'm now looking for a home producer. I have had mixed results with the quality from Woolovers. I'm still wearing an 80% marino 20% cashmere cable jumper bought about 5years ago -its great! I did send back a number on men's 100% lambs wool jumpers. They hung like woven fabric and had no wool qualities at all. NO spring, softness or good elasticity- stretch and recover properties. I've bought some recycled wool which was better. What's happening to the quality and lack of weight per garment?

My daughter worked there and the staff are treated badly. The CEO is a megalomaniac and if staff have any grievance , he tells them to leave. They claim to be green and ethical , but this is nonsense. The majority of garments are made in China and shipped to UK. They then may be sent out to customers in places like Russia , Korea, or Japan. If they are returned , they are sent back to UK. This could be a total journey of around 25,000 miles. Also, they send out over 1 million paper catalogues a year. Hardly green , or ethical.

Poor quality, itchy wool. 'British Knitwear' this is not! Made in China and it shows. I should have listened to the other reviews.

I ordered a black edge to edge cardigan. I needed it to go to my sister's funeral. I ordered it on 2nd February and paid extra for express delivery - one working day. It did not arrive in time. It did not arrive until several days after the funeral. I contacted Woolovers and they repaid me £3 for the extra postage. Will not be using them again.

When I bought three spencer of the same size, one fitted, one loosely and one clearly too large. I returned it using their label. After 10 weeks it came back to me: address unknown. Feels like a scam or very bad organisation.

Bought a pair of lounge trousers my wife. When to woolovers as my wife had bought an item previously and loved it. Product pilled and bobbled badly within a couple of hours of wear. Woolovers not interested, said natural material and to wash item and get a pilling comb and basically was trying to end the call before allowing me to reply. For the prices charged these are inferior products and I would avoid.

On first careful washing one garment shrank, a further purchase milled up so badly it was unusable. Quality has changed drastically - will not buy again. Dreadfully disappointed.

I have been purchasing from Woolovers for 25 years and until recently had been very satisfied with their products. Since the takeover, the quality and styles have deteriorated but I have continued to buy, that is until now. All the garments bought in the last three years have shrunk on careful washing, the most recent one shrunk eight inches! I am very disappointed as there is no one else who is providing the quality you used to supply for straightforward country clothing at a reasonable price.

Would not give a refund for cashmere socks although they had NOT been opened .This was not a hygenic issue as stated by woolovers in their terms and conditions it was to do with the size which was far too big.Very diss appointed with the response recieved
