From Palmerston North
Exceptional service and product.. the best I've ever encountered! I ordered this product yesterday afternoon and it was immediately dispatched, only to find it in our mailbox (we are on rural delivery in a remote area) the next morning. I am definitely spreading the word and will be ordering again, without hesitation. I have also had cause to enquire about different products and the response time is very quick. Good on you for offering such fantastic customer service. Very impressed.
