Good customer service …
I contacted customer services via WhatsApp and I must say the service, I have just received was 1st class. I had a issue with the courier company and the customers services were brilliant. They put a stop on the original items and re ordered on a next day delivery. Thank-you guys

Great customer service
Great customer service, which in my opinion is lacking from so many online companies of late. I would highly recommend them. In addition, the item I purchased is great quality and will give my toddler hours of imaginative play.

Recieved a faulty item which happens sometimes and messaged using the chat on the website which usually takes ages to get through to someone but got through straight away and spoke with a Leuan who resolved this for me in a matter of seconds also extremely polite and professional. Amazing customer service and really impressed with their customer service chat option.

Great shopping experience
I have given the company 5 stars because they have great products, keep their customers informed, deliver very quickly and provide excellent customer service.
However, I buy toys on behalf of my playgroup and need an invoice. There is no quick way to do this at the moment as the link does not work,

Rose Cottage dolls house
I recently received a second hand doll’s house for my granddaughter, from a friend. It was flat packed but no instructions for re-assembling. I called ELC helpline and within minutes, Nadia had sent me a pdf with the assembly instructions. Thank you very much for your efficiency! Donna
