Machine Mart Croydon

"Great place very knowledgeable staff."

"Hi I pay 700 pounds for one generator is broken after 3 weeks I bring back to the shop and I m still waiting for more den 14 days ,this is ridiculous I will not bay never for this shop machine mart"

"I needed a new blade for my bandsaw (which I bought at Machinemart) I called my local store and they confirmed they had them in stock. The following day I went to collect them, tried them on my machine only to find that they were much too small. When I called the store stating stating that they were too short the guy said in a i don't care attitude ' oh that doesn't surprise me in the least' It was his colleague that said they had them in stock and the suggestion was that that he didn't know what he was doing. So back the shop the following day to be told that they didn't have the correct blades in stock - they would take 4-5 days to get and to cap it all were £12 dearer! End result is I told them to give me my money back and I would buy them on line. Which I did, much cheaper, I received the correct blades in three working days. So I will never shop at Machine mart again. No wonder shops are closing."

"Great prices! Knowledgable staff! I first went here for a bike pump after trying the bike shop next door and being quoted minimum £80 for a bike pump! Went in got a dual cylinder pump for crazy cheap price! Its a great shop, can park right outside, its on a bus route too! Been there since to get chisels, a couple drill bits and something else ive forgotten, all for such a great price its been wonderful! I do like screwfix but its also nice to get a few pieces for just a great price, that just do the job! Staff know their stuff, ive walked in explained in detail what i wanted and theyve immediately said yes or no and when its a yes ( most of the time ) where to find it. Some shops now like a wickes or b and q, if you ask for even a type of hinge they stare blankly at you, but this place is good :) Recommended!"

"One star is generous for the compressors this firm sell. Bought 2 in the space of 2 months as both spat out oil. Sent both back to machine mart and after a week they told me as I over used them it's my fault! So if you want to get a compressor to use with no problems buy a ABAC quality product. Machine mart don't sell them as they only sell cheap rubbish."
