Osmouk Reviews 14

I purchased wood flooring adhesive online, the image on the product stated this would cover 22m2, the tub that arrive was actually 12m2 when I contacted the company about this issue they simply didn't care. After many messages backwards and forwards I was offered 15% off if I purchased another tub - unlikely as I'm not willing to give more of my money to this company. I should have read the reviews first.

Want to 'ceruse' Sycamore - forget it- it simply does not work. Followed directions to the letter and just got a one tone grey all over. Thankfully I just bought a small amount to try out. Used Fumed intense as undercoat and got a uneven finish. Used super white 2c as an overcoat and just turned the whole thing grey. Happy to move on and try another product.

I hope to hell this stuff works. Osmo decking oil, quoted off their website should cover approx. "24m²/L with one coat". I have approx 20m² of decking and 1 2.5L tin should do my sized dekcing twice over, I am half way through and I've used 3/4 of the tin. Not helpful at the cost.

I have managed to get it a bit further, by trying to spread it as far as I possibily can but I'm wondering if it will affect it's proformance.

I'm now in a position, where I'm forced to have to buy more just to complete the job.. at nearly £70 for the tin, I am not pleased, espesherly, it's a 2 coat recommendation.

I have bought Osmo Clear Satin Teak Decking oil, 2.5L. Coverage per litre according to instruction approx 24 m2 (one coat). In my case it was 6.2 m2/litre (one coat, additional area of groove walls included). My deck is 8 years old, so has some cracks. But still 4 times difference is not acceptable. Very bad economics for expensive product (87 GBP for 2.5 litre can in B&Q). Needed 4 cans instead of 1. Switching to cheaper and more honest product.

This stuff is great. No more black marks on our wood kitchen worktop. We top it up a few times a year and use the cleaner every now and then.

I really try not to review stuff, but after so many years of using other stuff, I decided to try osmo top oil.

So the context is I’ve being doing wood stuff for 40 years and a friend suggested I use top oil.

After reading the reviews and the application process, thought I’d give it a go.

My overall impression for the price is don’t bother, it’s a poor quality finish even after all of the hyperbole.

Save yourself money and simply apply danish oil,,, which is far superior.

Ordered Jupiter colour which looked completely different on the Osmo U.K. website and on all other websites. It’s basically just cream and I absolutely hate it. Took around three coats so very expensive and it’s developed a coating of black mould despite being open to the air. Very weird. Haven’t experienced that with far cheaper materials. Very disappointed.

Had a great service from here, item arrived undamaged and very fast.

Best product to use to finish wood products really happy with the product!

I recently decided to refinish my kitchen worktop, the previous finish was unsightly and messy to apply. I contacted Osmo as to the suitability of firstly using their stripper as the existing surface would be hard to remove with just a sander and then apply their Top Oil.
Craig from their customer service sent me detailed instructions as to the use of both products, the finish is perfect and so easy to apply, wish I'd heard of this product years ago.

Great products and excellent customer service, thank you Tom.

Technical and service/delivery advice: I have talked to a couple of people from Osmo this week during a very difficult global crisis and they have been second to none with quality of advice, professionalism, very personable and a had great deal of patience to my questions and needs. Service time has been instant, no queue, and thus all round has to be one of the best companies I've dealt with ever. I had a further email query and as a result they rang me straight back. A showcase of excellence in relation to product, company values and customer service. I sound like I'm perhaps biased BUT I'm a customer who has been treated with importance - regardless if you are a large customer or just someone trying to improve their house like myself who wants good value as a baseline.

I have had the pleasure of speaking with Paul at Osmo UK who made time for all my questions regarding the maintenance of my engineered wooden flooring throughout the house. One of the suppliers of Osmo products sadly advised me to purchase the wrong product and he gave me peace of mind and a few options of how to put it right. He is dedicated to the brand and understands wooden floors! Thank you! Leticia Smith

Spent around £200 to coat a cabin, within months we were getting leaks, spoke to 2 different paint experts who said Osmo is not suitable for Cornish weather, I contacted Osmo and got nowhere, they kept making suggestions that had already been tried and then not reading emails correctly and making mistakes. If you look on there own website most of the products that are on show are inside and not subject to weather, I now have a lot of work correcting what Osmo have done to my cabin and a lot of expense. Never again would I use this product or company.
