This large shop is mainly a showroom presenting almost everything you would need or desire in a kitchen. They show and supply all of the large appliance brands. The brilliant thing about this shop is the owner who also deals with most of the customer orders. He really knows his stuff and can give you invaluable advice. We were ordering a few items at once but he easily switched his knowledge from ovens, to fridges, to sinks with ease. They arranged delivery and fitting of all the items with care and ease. After consulting the internet their prices are just as cheap as anywhere else.

What a fantastic way to save a few pennies! Borshch, which is hard to spell but easy to remember,…read morereally took the expense and hassle out of buying appliances for us. Borshch is a family run discount appliance store open to the general public. From fridges to freezers, AGAs to tumble dryers, any and all appliances a family could want are found here. There are two types of item to be found at Borshch -- discount items, which have minor dents, scratches or small beauty damage; and new items. The new items are priced competitively, but not vastly lower than Comet or Curry's. The discount items, with minor surface damage, are heavily discounted, at 20% to 50% less than you'd find anywhere else. The warehouse is located in a slightly dodgy, very run down part of industrial Birmingham near Digbeth. The shop itself, however, is very neat and nothing out of order. The sales people are all very friendly, and know their appliances. Borshch also deliver within a 20-mile radius, for a flat fee. We took our fridge/freezer home ourselves, and the man very graciously helped us load it in the car. They have a very large selection of items, including American tumble dryers and top-loading washing machines (Maytag! OMG!).

It hardly matters if you're going to have it built in, and you can save a lot of money. It's well worth a look if an appliance has broken down and you're a bit short, or even if you're a property developer or something like that.

Hello again Mr Baldlock CEO of CURRYS and Dixons Carrphone warehouse, I wrote you that after 10…read moremonths i finally managed to collect my PC. I brought it in in June 2023 and paid £79.50 for transport and a diagnostic with repair through MIKE at the desk in your Solihull branch. I later learned the actual displayed cost was £75 but due my concern and autism i trusted your staff. The diagnostic was argued over but as one staff member offered it, it was agreed. I was within the 3 year warranty by HP but seemed a simple repair and purchased at this store expected to be done quickly. I was then told a new motherboard was installed at £230 though later learned as new for half that price. There should have been no charge as under warranty but later said my fault for taking it back to you. The £75 charge fore transporr has been removed from display so seems illegal. A new motherboard was said from HP as my PC only a year old when actually two and a half years old. i was coerced into paying the £230 said policy with a promise of return of my property my original motherboard or refund. My motherboard was later said thrown away and was not returned as promised but no refund. i complained but told i misinformed you as the two items were in the store by then. There had been a charge of £75 if i wanted my motherboard back but as i refused delivery of my PC without it they said they retrieved it from the trash and sent it to the store. A £50 refund was offered but never occurred, the diagnostic which was said done but i refused the result was then said given me early on. Long covid kept me from making the journey to collect till now. The assistant looked but said as i had not collected within 30 days it was thrown away despite my messages. i was in the store over a hour and another assistant went to look for it. As he went she said look on the top shelf i can't reach there. He brought my PC and my motherboard which seemed posted to the store saving the £75 charge i refused to pay. I was still asked for the receipt of that £75. I gave all my receipts to the girl but having to carry the PC and motherboard and time lost i didn't realise she did not return them. I returned next day but was offered copies from your records so lost my receipts which included the PC the laptop the TV webcam the charges for repair and transport. I got home and needed to rest but when i looked at my PC the VGA connection was gone, that is the connection used to join my monitor to my PC. The problem with my PC was a BIOS update that had failed leaving a black screen though said simple fix not even requiring the PC be opened up. This was is an overpriced said brand new motherboard despite refusal to prove it by many i spoke to at Currys. Why is there no VGA connection if it is an original replacement surely this basic connector to the monitor should be there. The fact that the monitor was not working seems to be the connector but if blocked as is the case an HDMI connector was available when i brought it in. Mike tested it said it didn't transmit to the monitor. Now using the HDMI it does transmit to monitor. My PC started up when he plugged it in but the diagnostic that was finally given stated nearly every part was broken which meant it would not start up. It appears you simply blocked the VGA used the HDMI and it worked again and overcharged me on transport and a motherboard I didn't need. Then fished a motherboard from the trash claiming it to be mine and stole my receipts while trying to steal my PC using policy as a cover. You kept this abuseupfor 10 months causing me to lose use of my PC and contacts etc vital to my autism and many ills at 74 years old. Already admitting to training staff to sell insurance to the insured and fined over £40 million but making £144 million it seems you have no conscience and maintain your fraud. i suspect the £50 you offered has been shared among your staff for a job well done but i want an explanation and full refund

I say "essentials" but actually I mean: "random household gimmicks that suckers like me can't resist". It is a crazy shop, selling things like banana guards, mushroom bags and non-slip cupboard liners. You can even buy travel plugs, for when your hotel room sink is somewhat lacking. Mad stuff aside; they also sell some incredibly useful odds and ends, especially when it comes to home baking paraphernalia. The Solihull branch is the only one in the Birmingham area, making it something of a novelty. The Lakeland brand is built on solid quality customer service. They will never quibble when it comes to refunds or faulty items. The staff know the stock inside out. The Solihull store is spread over two floors - with kitchen-orientated stock on the ground floor and general home wares and gifts on the top.

For several years, I walked past the Watch Workshop on the High Street in Solihull, and every time…read moreI passed I always wondered, 'what could that shop be?' Of course, this is a massive lie, as the Watch Workshop does exactly what it says on the tin. As well as doing watch repair work, they also do the expected extras, such as selling straps, and have a very nice display of them all to ensure that you get exactly what you're after. They do a range of repair works, including battery replacements and resealing on divers watches (very handy, as it's often tough to find places able to do that), and all repairs come with a year long guaranteed. The staff are friendly and clearly know their stuff, which I always consider to be a good barometer of the quality of specialist shops such as watch fixers. Highly recommended.

That's absolutely been my experience when over a 12-week period they failed to fix the malfunctioning fridge they sold me despite countless phone calls from me, countless promises from them and endless buck passing to the fridge manufacturer. I ended up having to do Domestica's job for them by phoning the fridge manufacturer myself - a process that took several days as they are in the Domestica mould of ignoring the customer and refusing to take responsibility for their own mistakes. When, after pressure from my letting agent Robert Aston, they finally replaced the fridge it was with an inferior model - a move that really sums up their contempt for the customers.

On the day I needed some, ahem, vacuum cleaner bags. This is hardly retail therapy, so what do I want from the experience? Simply this: The right bags, at a reasonable price, with a friendly service, and the re-assurance that the sales person is knowledgeable enough so that I had the confidence in him that he bags I bought were the right ones. And I get it. You can't ask for much more than that! But don't trust them with repairs, or your time. I 'phoned in for someone to fix my washing machine two weeks ago. I've waited in on three separate days now when they've said they'd be coming. They've said they'd call to give specific times, but they haven't. Not a mention of sorry!!! Two weeks without a washing machine and having to do handwashing. Terrible customer service, so I can't recommend them. 18 months later... It seems I'm not alone in finding Domestica to be shoddy in their timings and arrangements for appointments. A friend has just let me know that she's having similar problems: Vague times, no-shows, and general flippancy. Apparently washing machine manufacturers are referring owners of machines that break within guarantee time to Domestica-Maybe they should start looking elsewhere...
