Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the outstanding quality and craftsmanship of the products, noting the use of high-quality, durable materials and beautiful detailing. Many appreciate the traditional, handmade nature of the items, often mentioning their longevity and timeless appeal. The customer service is frequently highlighted as exceptional, with people commending the helpfulness, responsiveness, and kindness of the staff, who often go above and beyond to assist with specific requests and ensure satisfaction. Delivery services are also consistently described as prompt, reliable, and well-packaged. However, some customers were not happy with specific product design elements, such as magnetic fasteners not closing instantly or the ends of bags remaining open when clasped, raising concerns about security. A few other people also felt that certain bags had rough or unfinished leather edges, leading to discomfort, or that the overall construction was poor, making the product unusable.

Beautiful bag - amazing customer service

Absolutely brilliant customer service. They contacted me straight away to check this small bag would be big enough for me before they started production. I hadn't realised they were made to order and explained I needed it urgently for a wedding that weekend. They made and delivered it for me in 3 days rather than 2 weeks! Amazing!!
The bag was perfect. Beautifully made, big enough for my iPhone 14, lippy and sunglasses and I got lots of compliments on it.

Beautiful and well made product which exceeded my expectations in terms of craftsmanship and great that it is handmade in Britain. Really pleased with my new laptop bag in British Racing Green which is getting lots of compliments. And when I contacted the company to find out about my order’s progress, they replied straight away, even though at the weekend, and I received my new bag safely and securely as promised.

You will NOT regret this !

Brian ! What can I say. Honestly he went truly above and beyond for me. My little boy was starting school and I wanted something that would last. Considering the price point I was sketchy but I thought it’s an investment. I wasn’t sure about a lot of things on the website. Brian was sooo helpful. My boy being petite Brian helped arrange shorter straps for his backpack. And even a custom pencil case to match his bag!

If you want the best experience for your children starting school. Especially something that’s hard and sturdy and that will last throughout their education years, I cannot recommend Zatchels enough. The bag speaks for itself. Great quality , so versatile, can be used so many ways so even when they get older, you can change it from a backpack, to a side bag or even just a handle bag.

Thank you so much Brian for making this purchase worth it.

An excellent product

The quality of the product is excellent considering the price, especially compared to other brands. There is a huge choice of colours, too. I’ve had 3 bags from Zatchels and I’m delighted with all of them and if I’ve had a query their customer service has been really quick and helpful. The only issue has been the time taken to receive all 3 bags - when I ordered the third bag I was expecting this so it didn’t bother me! I’d not hesitate to order from them again- and no doubt will.

Great quality satchel

Satchel is just as described and size is just right for me. It took a little longer than estimated to be delivered but was worth the wait. I will definitely recommend them

Lovely well made satchel

Lovely well made satchel, made for life, I think that they could have sent me the odd update while I was waiting, it was a good job I chased up the order because they had a supply issue which delayed my order and didn't let me know. otherwise looking forward to getting old with my bag!

I was very satisfied how I was treated

I was very satisfied how I was treated with this Company as the leather was delayed for the item I had requested. I was kept informed what was happening as it was for a present and they made sure I had it on time and I loved it when it arrived.
Thank you Zatchels
