“Needed to buy a new Smart TV. Had a look at different retailers and compared prices. We decided to visit the John Lewis store in Milton Keynes. They had a wide range of stock, the customer assistants were very helpful and helped us choose a TV suitable to our needs. It was in stock so we were able to take it with us that day. The staff in the collections bay were also very helpful and wheeled the TV out to our car and helped us load it into the car. Nothing was too much trouble and the staff were very polite and friendly.”

“We bought a washing machine recently which arrived on time, very happy with delivery, they took the old machine away. The delivery people were pleasant and very helpful. Would recommend using John Lewis for larger items not just clothes.”

“wide variety of good quality goods for all ages and good as a shop to go to for most things. Good return policy -no harassment . Good service and a smile from staff and no problems/ hard sale talk in browsing and asking about products without feeling compelled to buy”

“Fantastic customer service. I've ordered 15 or so items from them over Christmas, one of them was a towel which began to 'bobble' after one use. I dropped then an email, within 24 hours I had a call from customer services to get my address and send a replacement item, which arrived the next day.”

“I ordered a set of saucepans on line that were wrongly described as non stick, When i contacted John Lewis , they ordered me another set but when i went to collect them , they were identical to the first set. I took them back to the store in High Wycombe and was helped by Ben in the kitchen department. He understood the problem immediately and helped me choose a different set and sorted out the on line refund and payment for the shop purchase. He gave the sort of customer service I used to get at John Lewis- such a good member of staff. Well don eBen”

“Having used a well known electrical retailer in the past with drastic results decided to use John Lewis. I couldn’t believe the difference in the quality of service. John Lewis were brilliant from start to finish. Just had a Bosch washing machine delivered which included free delivery, installation and recycling of the old machine. The. Night before gave me a 2 hour time slot and a phone call on the day to say they were on their way. It was a difficult installation and they were polite and efficient throughout The other company just left the machine and said that they were running late. Well done John Lewis, will always use you for the extra mile you go to to make sure that everything is hassle free.”

“Always have great service at John Lewis. The staff are always helpful, stores are well laid out and tidy and with nice things to look at. Website is easy to use and stuff arrives on time. All the bad reviews don’t sound like the JL I see!!!”

“Usually customers only leave feedback when they have had a bad experience however I feel it is important to also recognise the times when staff do an amazing job. I do not usually shop in John Lewis as I find it quite expensive but I visited the Cheltenham branch a couple of weeks ago to purchase a watch for my sons 18th birthday. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful in helping me look. I went away to think about it and ordered 2 online. The items were delivered on time with courier updates. Today I returned the one he didn’t want to store and again all of the staff I came across were friendly and helpful. They also adjusted the watch to fit for my sons wrist. A great service and I will certainly shop again over Xmas. Well done John Lewis Cheltenham.”
