While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Please avoid this company!

I bought an ROPP capper, purportedly from this company. It was advertised on Ebay and the business seller information named Lancing Ltd as the seller. I have retained a copy of the Ebay advert as proof.

When the invoice arrived, however, it was from another company called Machinery Automation Ltd which was controlled by the same directors and using the same trading address and contact details. The companies both seemed to be selling identical items.

The machine arrived poorly packaged and damaged. It was very obviously of extremely poor construction and had originated from China. The machine did not have any means of controlling its operation and lacked any safety features despite claiming to be CE compliant. It was completely unusable.

I complained and was lied to and given the run around by the older director - a truly vile individual who I am surprised still retains the use of his limbs.

Before even contemplating buying anything from this company, please have a look at the reviews left on Trustpilot for Machinery Automation Ltd and then go to Companies House have a look at the list of other struck off and insolvent companies that have been run by the directors of this company. It does not make reassuring reading.

After doing this, please do yourself a favour and buy from a reputable supplier.
