- HRHazel ReaMay 18, 20265.0We have no hesitation in recommending Annie of the Magnet Colchester branch as a kitchen designer. She was very professional, knowledgeable, patient, and helpful - and an absolute pleasure to deal with.
- PMPenny MaidensMay 2, 20265.0After finding a fantastic tradesman, Martin Stanley, on MyBuilder.com, I was lucky enough to have him recommend Mike Simmans at the Colchester branch of Magnet. Mike was able to meet all my requirements for my kitchen and utility room, and designed a beautiful bespoke Window bench for my bedroom. Mike made everything easy for me. He helped me choose the best products and went out of his way to ensure the end result would be perfect. Mike was always there at the end of the phone or email. He was very proactive and professional throughout as well as being very friendly and approachable. The actual products from Magnet were far superior to other companies I had considered. Delivery was punctual with everything arriving in perfect condition. The end result was absolutely fantastic and exceeded my expectations. All this at a very compatible price. I can highly recommend Mike Simmans and Magnet of Colchester
- FHFran HipgraveMar 10, 20265.0Mike was incredible at Magnet Colchester. He listened to what we were after, fully understanding our needs then offered advice based on his vast experience in selling and fitting kitchens. He went above and beyond on many occasions (even printing and laminating plans and fitting instructions for us). He was very patient and no request was too big or questions to small. We would 100% recommend magnet not just for the great quality kitchen but also the amazing staff!
- AAAmeliaJan 18, 20265.0Came into this lovely Magnet showroom on a busy Saturday, was immediately welcomed by a lovely gentleman. After browsing their fabulous ranges we were introduced to a designer who throughly listened to our ideas and needs. Answering all our questions with his knowledge and experience, nothing was too much trouble for him or he’s colleagues (from over-hearing other conversations), even with our young restless children present. Hot drinks were offered too. Superb customer service.
- MBMichael BurtonOct 7, 20255.0Annie Odogwu was an absolute delight to deal with. Very patient with us as we changed our mind frequently. Brilliant experience throughout. Thanks Annie
