Great Little Trading Co. Bewertungen 

We got our toddler tower from Great Little Trading company and it’s been a lifesaver for food prepping with our toddler! He loves it and it’s stylish enough to actually look lovely in our kitchen too, the chalk board is a fun touch as well! Highly recommend

Fantastic customer service as always and the best made and quality toys and furniture we’ve had for the children. We’ve had the beanbags which are super comfy big and beautifully coloured, the play kitchen which has been incredible for imaginative play and the play market - fabulous for little ones wanting to role play. Would 100% recommended

We've ordered a few bits from GLTC now and the quality has always been fab. Great value for money and we'd definitely shop from again.

We have bought so many products form GLTC over the course of all 3 children. Beds, cots and a wide range of toys. My go to place for presents for family and friend’s children. Great value for money and last forever! Also had lots of their toys in my classroom that have lasted so long even though played with daily with a class of 30. Highly recommended!!

We absolutely love the pen caddy for organising our crafts and pens. Very easy to put together and the quality is AMAZING

Ordered on the 22nd jan and still not here, a tiny item, excuses and no further response. Used to be a good company, many previous purchases. Now terrible!

Sadly a bad experience as I really wanted it to be good.
My parcel was delivered to the wrong address and no refund has been made. Delivery photo clearly shows a completely different property with a different house number. Driver also forged my husbands signature with is fraud. No refund from great little trading company.

I don’t often write reviews but wanted to highlight the great service I’ve just received from GLTC. When my daughter’s bed broke recently, I realised it was still under warranty and so contacted customer service - they couldn’t have been more helpful. They immediately offered to send replacement parts, which they did at speed enabling me to fix the bed within a week of it breaking. My daughter loves her Star Bright bed and now she can sleep in it again. Thanks GLTC, very much appreciated!

I contacted GLTC Customer Service for teepee assembly steps, and Sally got back to me right away with friendly, useful help. Excellent customer care. Thanks, Sally and GLTC!

*Update 2*

Despite promising me an update last Thursday 29 January, GLTC are now ignoring me, including my requests that either a new order ship or they issue me a full refund.

The item has still not moved in the tracking since last Monday (a week ago) and the courier also refuse to engage with me as I'm not the retailer, so I can only assume it's been lost. 3.5 weeks wasted and nowhere to store our baby's clothes before he arrives next week. Utterly appalling customer service all round. I have now been left with no choice but to initiate a chargeback claim with my credit card provider. Zero stars should be given.

*Update 1*

Knocking another star off as it's been over 3 weeks since I ordered and 5 days since GLTC's chosen delivery partner received the item. In that time it hasn't moved from the "collection depot" and GLTC have just shrugged their shoulders and said it's no longer their problem. The biggest joke is the item I ordered is now back on sale and saying delivery within 5 days.

My first baby hasn't even arrived yet and they've already lost me as a customer. If you read this review, no I would not recommend the stress and hassle of purchasing from them. I will be spreading the word far and wide via my mums network. Sick to death of retailers thinking they can treat customers like this, especially during the already stressful time of preparing for baby.

...

3 weeks and still waiting for my item. Updates have been non-existent. Will update if I ever receive the item. Not impressed at all with the communication or service from GLTC.

I ordered a lot of items from great little trading company, some of which were for my daughter’s birthday. I didn’t hear from them for 16 days and when I did it was to tell me an item they let me order was actually out of stock and they didn’t know when it would be back. This is extremely poor customer service, I have now missed my daughters birthday and I am still yet to receive the rest of my order. Do not order from this company!

My furniture order took over 3 weeks to arrive and when it did there was damage on some parts of the cabinet. It’s a shame as we’ve bought some lovely toys and storage baskets from here before and really like their products. I’m not sure what’s going on with them at the moment but it’s put me off buying any larger items from them again.

After another 20 e mails they’ve admitted there is no toy on its way.

I am going to take this to the Ombudsman because companies like this should not be allowed to exist.

They hide behind no way of contacting them and automatic responses. I will buy from IKEA so much for trying to back British - don’t bother!

15 e mails so far with no information

I am devastated with this company’s service. I ordered an expensive kitchen toy for my grandson’s first birthday yesterday and I have no idea when it will arrive. I write every day but get AI generated ridiculous ‘thank you for reaching out…’ e mails. Since when has ‘reaching out’ been a thing? I’m upset beyond belief as I received an e mail this morning from their courier stating that if GLTC have told you we have your parcel it’s not true and they will have to pick it up themselves! What does this all mean? Have I lost my money?

Do not buy from this company it’s a total scam!

The product was good but the customer service is unsatisfactory. There is no telephone number so I had to complain about the non delivery by email. Response by the customer service department was slow, initially anonymous and, at one point, completely erroneous in that I was told my parcel had been delivered - the photo they sent me by email showed the wrong parcel, the wrong address and the wrong signature. In the end, I chased up the delivery myself by phoning FedEx and fighting my way past the AI bot until I finally got through to a human who sorted it all out pretty quickly.
GLTCo needs a customer service phone number or at least a faster and more accurate email system.

Great little company

Short version - spent £450 on items for new playroom on 3rd December, finally delivered on 23rd December (20 days after order), and missing 5 items from delivery.

Multiple email chases and horrific customer service

Full timeline below
3rd Dec
Built an order - total of everything in the basket displayed as £370. When order confirmed, it took £450 from my card.
Emailed to ask why and requested to manually add an account number to delivery address as it needed to be onwardly posted to Isle of Man (IOM) by courier company (online form didn't allow me to)
Billing postcode wasn't accepted online as was IOM (despite this order not being delivered to IOM), so had to work around, but order placed and money taken.
Clarified these were my son's Christmas presents
Response: No reason given for difference in price

8th Dec (5 days since order)
Chased for order update and requested ETA. Also requested confirmation that account number had been added as it needed to be onwardly posted.
Response: None

9th Dec (6 days since order)
Received no response so chased again for update
Response: Very vague apologies that order not been dispatched, "unforeseen challenges in warehouse". Order will be prioritised for XDP shipping.

9th Dec (6 days since order)
Again requested ETA, and again clarified these were my son's Christmas presents so needed to be delivered by Christmas
Response (11th Dec): "Your order is due to be dispatched shortly". Still no ETA

11th Dec (8 days since order)
Requested a specific ETA, and again clarified this was for onward delivery to IOM
Response (12th Dec): "We regret to inform you one of your items isn't available, cannot be located in warehouse. Would you like to select a similar item?"

13th Dec (10 days since order)
Requested an item change, and again requested an ETA as now getting tight to post to courier company and them onwardly deliver to IOM
Response: None

15th Dec (12 days since order)
Requested further urgent order update as no notification order has been dispatched despite paying £450 12 days ago.
Response: Order set to be dispatched from warehouse today

15th Dec (12 days since order)
Clarified what the delivery actually contained (email of 12th Dec saying one item not available). Also queried if account number is on package (again)
Response (16th Dec): Order dispatched today and on way to XDP. No response to either question above, totally ignored.

16th Dec (13 days since order)
Asked the same two questions again
Response: Confirmed it contained original item, still no confirmation if account number is on parcel.

17th Dec (14 days since order)
Asked again if account number is on the order
Response: Finally (a different person, Freya) confirmed the account number was on the package

19th Dec (16 days since order)
No sign of any items at courier company, queried again where they are as meant to be dispatched
Response (20th Dec): Apologies for the delivery delay, "quickly escalated" apparently. If no movement they will update in 24 hours

22nd Dec (19 days since order)
No response in 24 hours as promised, chased again to find out where my order is
Response (23rd Dec): Order is apparently being delivered to courier company today (spoiler - it wasn't). Likely too late now to be onwardly delivered to the Isle of Man and my son will not have his Christmas presents that were ordered on 3rd Dec.

23rd Dec (20 days since order)
Email received from GLTC asking to confirm when I had received items (responded to re-clarify as I have many many times, they are going to courier company in UK so unable to do so)
Auto Response: Out of office until 28th December 2025

24th Dec (21 days since order)
Thanks to very quick turnaround from courier company (delivered to IoM next day), some items arrived on the Isle of Man. 5 of the ordered items were not however in the parcel.

28th Dec (25 days since order)
Now we have reached the 28th December, which was the date on the auto response, queried why 5 items that had been ordered and paid for weren't in the order
Response: Out of office until 29th December 2025

My wife recently bought a Whale baby walker for our grand daughter and as usual I was expected to put it together. I have to say that I was extremely impressed with the quality and ease of assembly of the product. Everything fitted perfectly and appears to be well made and designed. The final assembled product looks great.

So I purchased a GLTC product via a third party and when it failed to be delivered within the agreed time slot, after reaching out to the company I placed the order with and receiving a very blasé response, I decided to reach out to GLTC directly.

I was not expecting much help as the contract technically was not with them, however their customer service was great.

They were very quick to respond to me and got an order sent out for me the next day! I am very impressed with their assistance and felt the need to let people know how excellent they were.

The item arrived within a couple days as they advised and I can confirm the quality of the item is great.

I would have no hesitation in ordering from this company and would highly recommend them.

I paid £500 for a bed frame and £15 for delivery on the 15th of November. The delivery was estimated 2-4 weeks. I ordered on a specific date to ensure I got it before Christmas. I have contacted the customer service team multiple times and have struggled to get a response. I finally got a response that there is an issue with my order and it will come after Christmas but I am no further forward as to when it will arrive and if it will even come. Absolutely shocking for the price I have paid !!!!!!

Placed an order for a book shelf. 10 later no contact so chased and they said they couldn’t find our address (new build) I confirmed it was correct. Then they told me they had no stock so it would be refunded. Then they told me they had stock and would be sent out. Chased again and told they need to confirm my address (this I confirmed :times). Then silence again! Chased and told they had refunded me…unsure why. Then I complained and asked to speak to a manger (no numbers just a generic email). Was then told it was being processed chased again and told order has been cancelled. Do not order from
