Wychwood - Great boat seat!

The purchase and subsequent delivery of the seat was very smooth.
It arrived well packaged.
Bought for my partner's birthday in June and finally used for the first time the weekend 5th July.
He is so impressed with it! It's of very good quality.
It is easy to fit and proved to be very comfortable and he spent several hours in the boat!

What made my experience great was great…

What made my experience great was great up to date tackle at great prices
In all the years of dealing with ftb I've only had one time where I needed to contact them after I received my order and the issue was dealt with promptly professionally and to my satisfaction.
By far the number 1 fishing tackle and bait store I've dealt with can and will highly recommend them to all anglers

Unsatisfactory

Good prices. Slow delivery. Products ordered were not as described on their website. When I requested a small partial refund in order to purchase the missing parts (that were stated as included in their product description) I was told that they can change the product descriptions as per their ts and cs. This is in breach of the Consumer Rights Act.
