Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 50 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the excellent service, highlighting prompt and efficient order processing. Many people appreciate the quick and reliable delivery service, often noting next-day arrivals and competitive pricing on products. The staff is frequently commended for being friendly, helpful, and providing detailed, expert advice. However, some customers were dissatisfied with the company's delivery system, finding it inflexible and leading to unexpected high postage costs for small items. A few other people also felt that the website's description of "Gold Service" for liner installation was misleading, as the company primarily provides products and not installation services, despite claims of expert fitters.

Chlorine shock spillage in consignment.

A 5kg tub of chlorine shock granules spilt its contents inside an outer carton containing other items. The chemical contaminated the delivery drivers van, caused a mess that we had to clear up and a lot of the chemical was wasted. I emailed Poolstore to complain and explain that the tamper evident lid was not fastened correctly - in which case they may wish to check the remainder of the batch to avoid it happening to anyone else - and would you believe it, they haven’t even replied. This isn’t just poor customer service, it’s a H&S issue.

Thank you for your review. As recently discussed we are very sorry for what happened to your delivery whilst in transit. As soon as we received your complaint we responded to you straight away. The manufacturer of this product has designed the container so that the lid is slightly loose to allow any build up of chlorine gas to escape. Despite our best efforts to pack this product for the carriage, the nature in how your package was handled by the carrier meant a small spillage of the product occurred into the holding box. We send hundreds of these containers out every month and when the product is handled correctly during transit the product gets delivered intact. We continue to develop our packing methods for this product to ensure this product can withstand some of the harshest of handling conditions the carriers unfortunately offer up on occasion. We await your reply to our offer to swap out the damaged product and apologise again for the inconvenience this matter has caused you.

Nirvana Heat Pump Water Connector Failure

Following a recent failure of the water connector socket on my Nirvana Heat Pump, that I originally purchased from Pool Store in 2021, I was extremely pleased with the level of customer support provided to me by Jason and his team to source a replacement part. Whilst the manufacturer of the product dragged their heels in supplying a spare, Jason found me the relevant part within a week and not only sent that through but also included the parts I needed to recreate the joint between the bypass system and the heat pump.

From the level of support he provided when I was building my pool, to the excellent customer service this time round, I can only say that Jason is a star and that Pool Store remains the first place I go when looking for pool related items.

Thank you Jason :)

I’ve used Poolstore for a number of years, they’ve always been helpful and efficient.. Website is easy when ordering and delivery is prompt..
As with everything it seems, the prices on chemicals have increased significantly..And with energy prices the way they are, it’s becoming increasingly challenging running a domestic pool..
Having said that, Poolstore are still a great company to supply all swimming pool requirements..

Great service at a good price

I ordered a replacement dehumidifier which arrived promptly. However, there had been some changes at the manufacturers end so whilst it was the same product it was branded differently and did not come with a remote. I sent an email to them over the weekend and called them Monday morning (no holding and spoke to a real person), they were already on it and had everything resolved by midday (thank you Jason). The remote was delivered the day after. Great service.
