SGS Reviews Summary

However, a significant number of reviews highlight serious concerns regarding customer service, including prolonged delays in order fulfillment, difficulties with returns, and inadequate support following product issues. Many customers express frustration over the lack of responsiveness from the customer service team, leading to dissatisfaction with the overall purchasing experience. This pattern suggests a need for improvement in customer communication and after-sales support to enhance customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Another purchase from SGS surprise Christmas present can't comment on the performance however judging by the build quality of this and other equipment that I have purchased over the last 12 months it gets a easy 5 Rating from me so if you looking for quality equipment at very competitive prices with a super fast next day delivery give SGS a try they haven't let me down

I purchased a chainsaw from this company and the customer service was great, the chainsaw arrived really quickly and I needed to phone as I could not get it to start - no fault of the company, just my lack of mechanical knowledge. The call was answered quickly and I was talked through how to start it. It started first time. The lady I spoke to was very pleasant and understanding and the whole experience from placing an order to asking and getting help was brilliant. I would definitely use this company again.

Bought an air ratchet set from SGS.

It failed after 30 seconds attached to an air line with no load. Initial response was that I needed to buy a bigger compressor. Then they suggested we should up the air pressure above their recommended operating pressure. Then they said that they could not take a return on a used product. On their site they claim to have a 60 day returns policy and a 2 year warranty. How is this a used product?

Would never use this company again.

Best trolley jack
April 1, 2019

Very happy with the 3t trolley jack from SGS, is a bit havy but is very handy to have even if you don't have a garage and you doing some diy to your car.

Ordered 2 gas struts for my car on line. Order delivered very promptly but there was a problem with one of the struts when fitted and this, of course is when you find out if a company is any good or not. SGS were excellent in resolving the problem quickly and to my complete satisfaction. Tailgate now operates like new. Very pleased and would recommend.

Brilliant
April 1, 2019

Brilliant. Super fast delivery, everything in one piece and good prices too. What more to say?

I previously had a 3hp compressor off them which developed a starting fault. They sent new capacitors out straight away which fixed the issue.

Apart from it arriving in 2 days unannounced, this mobile work bench is a great piece of kit. Unpacking was a pleasure to reveal its attractive stainless, unmarked work of art.

Top rating for SGS
March 23, 2019

Top rating for SGS. Compressor delivered next day as advertised. The oil level on the compressor on setting up was well above the level advised so a couple of emails to SGS sorted situation. Replies received within a few hours or next day at the latest.

Although not a quiet machine the noise level is not excessive. This one is reasonably stable in use, not jumping around like a demented washing machine as my "old" compressor did.
