The bendy penguins were very cute (but I expected them to be bendier). They arrived faster than expected with the very inexpensive colouring in pads.

Items not located in Australia, Shipped from UK

did not realise that your items were being shipped from the UK - as it is an Australian site it would have been nice if this was made clear in your listings! The order took way longer than expected to arrive due to this.

reply to store reply - your contact us page is not a page that people go to unless they have a question, it should be made clear on the main page or listing pages or even a pop up in the check out area so it is clear for customers, not something they are expected to search for.

I ordered 2 x 12 Easter baskets as I needed 22 for my child’s kindergarten. It cost a lot to get these with the postage and was well over what I wanted to pay but accepted it as they were exactly what I was looking for. However, the items arrived as “12 pieces” so a 6 pack each with the base and handle. The pack itself said “12 pack” on the back. The description on the website said 12 as well. So now I have 12 extremely overpriced baskets that I won’t use. Very disappointed!!

Hi Rahna,

Thank you for the time you have taken to leave us a review, in respect of our Easter Baskets.

I have liaised with our Purchasing Department, who have advised, that the cardboard pieces can slightly sick together, so if you could check the pieces you have received, they should separate from each other and should be the correct amount of pieces.

However, if this is not the case, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Team at service@bakerross.com.au

Kindest regards

Snow domes so small no child would be capable of colouring in….not even my 8 year old granddaughter who is amazing at crafts and no directions.Weaving baskets not wrapped separately so I had to divid everything, photocopy the directions and place in zip locked bags. Looks very crappy. Very disappointed and have had to buy other things for my Easter baskets at a fraction of the cost and better. I have already sent an email complaining which got me nowhere. Apparently the domes are very popular and yes they would be until received. No child would have the ability to colour in something so small

Initial disappointment turn positive

Unfortunately the product really didn't work - out of 8 of the whistles, only 4 produced any sound. The postage cost really made this extremely expensive.

Update - whilst I didn't request a refund, I was contain BKee Ross and informed that I would be receiving a full refund as they had read my feedback - this type of service is unheard of these days, extremely impressed!

Easter kits of lamb a bit lame

I liked that my items were shipped promptly.
I think that the new lambs were not as good as the ones you had 8 years ago. The new lambs have strange pom-pom balls, the old ones had foam flowers.

Wrong p…

Unfortunately I received the wrong package. The correct packing sheet but different contents. The customer service has been frustrating. We were asked to provide information about the contents, unfortunately the each time we responded, we were asked to provide more detailed info, which resulted in office staff moving between warehouse and office on four occasions. We have now been asked to take the large heavy box to a post office to pay for return postage. Even though I trust the postage will be refunded, the process has been disappointing and a big time waster. I understand errors can happen, but the process to correct any errors should be streamlined and with clear communication.

Great product, very late arrival

The products are great. Unfortunately the items arrived 6 weeks after expected delivery. They came from UK, not Australia. However, watching tracking they arrived in Australia just in time. I don't know what happened for the last 4 weeks in transit... and because they were Christmas craft items for my class and another class, we have to wait a whole year to use them.

I can see on looking into this, that the parcel was presented to Customs for inspection. Unfortunately, this is out of our control I am afraid.

I am sorry to hear, that the parcel did not arrive in time.

Suncatcher paint pens terrible

Product - suncatchers and cards are as advertised and well made.
Suncatcher paint pens are useless - there is no opening in the tubes or an easy way of opening. The help line did not respond with a way of opening.

Christmas order never arrived.

I haven't recieved my Christmas craft order purchased in Oct...valued over $500.
I have emailed a few times and only had one response and that was "please wait"... its now January and the order still is not here and there is no updates on tracking.
The whole experience has been awful and I'm extremely unhappy.

Hi Jessica,

Thank you for the time and trouble you have taken, to leave us your review.

I am saddened to hear of this matter.

On looking into this, it appears that the order was presented and held in Customs for inspection. However, this appears to have since been released, but still not delivered I am afraid.

My name is Lynn and I have sent you an email regarding this matter.

Good quality, price and service

I looked at a lot of sites looking for some good art stencils for the kids at our youth group to use for their art project. On this website I found a great selection at a reasonable price, they arrived quickly and the products were a great quality. The kids had a heap of fun using them.
