25 years of great service
I use the Evesham branch and have done for the last 25 years.
The products are good quality at reasonable prices, and staff are excellent, whether it's for in depth technical specs, assistance on returns/refunds or just a quick chat & bit of freindly banter.
Any issues encountered are always dealt with quickly & efficiently.
These days I use CEF online a lot as you can log into your account and access everything from home. The site is easy to navigate and is steadily & consistently undergoing improvements.
Here's to another 25 years.😆

Returned Fridge.
I bought a fridge online which turned out to be too small. Was able to return to local branch who are organising a refund. Apparently online is slightly different from the store, so store were unable to refund card immediately.
