GBAbsolute flimsy rubbish Absolute flimsy rubbish. The Perspex is so thin. It disintegrated on its first windy outing ( and yes it was put together properly and anchored down) so we dismantled the remains and it went to the recycling centre. A waste of good money.

GBCanopia Herald 1.4 x 4.5 metre canopy Canopia Herald 1.4 x 4.5 metre canopy. This is an attractive and effective canopy, supplied with good, quite easy to follow installation instructions and is quite straightforward to build with a couple of fiddly jobs, installation took about 1 working day. My experience was that almost all the build was a 1 person task, another helper was needed, briefly, for positioning the beam against the wall and installing the glazing. Almost all packaging is recycle able but on opening there was some damage to a few components, scuffs, bends and dents - improved packaging may solve. It would be better if the information that buying sealant for assembly is needed is available before the boxes are opened. I’d rather collect all I need to assemble before I start, rather than open boxes, read instructions go to Toolstation then start again. I think that the recommended silicone lubricant is essential when installing the rubber seal to the extension, it’s a fiddly task and tucking the end under the metalwork 1.4 metres away is tricky, a long flat screwdriver helped. Not sure about the permanence of the black plastic nut caps, I’m sure I’ll be waking up to many of those on the drive in the summer, maybe a spot of silicone sealant when fitting is a good idea. I’d recommend the canopy, it’s a good price, easily installed and nicely finished (if not damaged).

GBExcellent service and product. Sierra veranda arrived and was fairly easy to put up with 2 people. When we were inserting the roofing paddles at first it didnt seem to be sitting right but we soon realised we hadn't placed the legs quite square but once we corrected that it was. It has been absolutely great. We have already had intense wind and rain and it has been solid. There hasn't been too much noise with the rain battering down. We have mounted it onto a pebble dashed wall so we have used lots of sealant to keep it waterproof which we have managed after a couple of goes so smooth brick walls will be no problem. A piece of guttering had been broken in transit but company replaced it promptly without hesitation.

GBPalram also known as Canopia in the U.K. Lost a couple of roof sheets from our Palram Sierra patio cover in the recent freak storms. The Palram has never had an issue with previous storms, but the recent storm was freakish with 70-80mph winds Contacted Canopia Palram UK using their online contact us. Gave them the required info. Approx 11 days later 2 replacement sheets were delivered free of charge. No fuss, no complaints. Thats what as a customer you want to hear. Top Marks

GBShed had missing rubber seals and every… Shed had missing rubber seals and every time I try to contact customer service, it doesn’t lead you anywhere, same with trying to order free gift, left a review on b&q where it was purchased from but is this just a con???? Is someone available to answer queries anywhere and enable us to make the shed wind proof and safe in high winds???????? It’s so frustrating.
