Hobby Craft is a massive arts and crafts supplies store, almost like an arts and crafts mega store…read more For the creative person, this place has the lot, everything from paint brushes and easels to model making kits and adhesives. Whatever your hobby you are bound to be able to get what you need here. The downside is that a lot of these supplies come at a price. For the bits I have used Hobby Craft for, I have normally found the same things cheaper elsewhere. That said, I believe in this case you are paying for the convenience of having everything under one roof. All it takes is one visit and you should have everything to complete your project. Staff are enthusiastic and helpful and the store itself is easy to navigate despite the size. It is always clean and tidy and makes for a comfortable shopping environment. Parking is very easy too as the shop is on a retail park which can be quite hectic at the weekend but no real problems during the daytime.

I feel this review needs to be summed up in a meme...

Craftey stuff in abundance I walked in looking for frames, paint and some nic-nacs. It was HORRIBLE. The staff were nowhere to be seen and when you did track on down to ask them 'where the hell is **insert crafty goodness here**?' they were short and seemed bewildered themselves. There's not a lot I can say about this place other than, It's jumbled, nothing is where you think is should or would be and the staff are just plain disinterested. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE - buy stuff online, it'll probably be cheaper too!

This British Heart Foundation branch isn't my favourite charity shop in Hammersmith; it's rather…read moresmall and cluttered, and a lot of the stuff on offer looks like it's been there for a very, very long time. It's best for DVDs (which are right at the back): they have a rapid turnover of stock, so it's worth checking regularly, and you will occasionally find some unexpected gems for a few pounds.

Zero communication, Zero for customer service - AVOID…read more Purchased a table from this company on their eBay shop. I sent an offer which the seller accepted, took payment then decided to cancel my purchase at 11.00pm that evening. No communication, no courtesy of an explanation, nothing. This wouldn't have been such an issue if I hadn't purchased a matching credenda unit. I'm honest in my dealings and honour my obligations, shame this seller doesn't share the same level of integrity.

After regularly visiting the shop replacing the florist in Herne Hill I am still not quite sure…read morewhat it is all about. It is filled with rather battered and individual pieces of furniture, art books and the odd broken object. Nothing is priced or has any indication of being for sale, instead the drawers and cupboards have more of these antiquities housed inside them, a few months ago even a collection of modern plastic sunglasses appear in the shop. The shop reminds me of the strange things you might find in a house left behind by an old rather senile person, but I love it. I love furniture and I love when you can see history and personality in it. Everything in here is unique and honest. Expect to find a deteriorating leather chaise, a large industrial tin locker unit, a 60's lampshade and an encyclopedia of African Art hidden behind a 1950's school photograph in a smashed frame. Everyone deserves to visit Bleu Furniture.

I don't understand how this fraudulent "company" is allowed to continue to trade. If you make an…read moreonline purchase be prepared to spend vast amounts of time over many months chasing up a non existent item, then chasing up your refund which you will end up retrieving through your bank's involvement. My bank told me I had fallen for a scam where a company takes your payment but does not fulfill their side of the transaction and obtained my refund several months after my initial payment was made.
