    The products purchased were brilliant. The packaging of the item was like getting something off of EBay. A little better packaging especially with brushes. The package was simply cardboard wrapped around. It did arrive damaged, but the brushes were okay.

    Good service online but often I like or need to go to the shop. Then it is even better.

    So far my experience has been very bad. My order was over £200 and I ordered over two weeks ago and I still have not received it. This is largely down to Ervi being a terrible delivery service. It is known that Ervi are a bad delivery company and I would suggest Cowling and Wilcox leave them before more potential issues arise. I have asked Cowling and Wilcox to support me with Ervi (as getting hold of Ervi is impossible) and to be honest communication with Cowling and Wilcox over this issue has not been very attentive. Which personally doesn’t feel great considering how much I spent. I have called Cowling and Wilcox numerous times and emailed and only received one email back, I have asked for a refund now but I still haven’t heard anything from them. Ultimately, I see that this is largely Ervi’s fault yet it does not make me want to order from Cowling and Wilcox again due to the partners they work with and their inability to be attentive with this issue. Therefore, perhaps they should consider customer experience and the partners they work with.

    The product is great, but the ordering process was one of the most complex I've ever encountered. Needs improvement.

    Great service from Cowling and Wilcox.I found it really easy to find the paints I needed on the website. They were on offer- an added bonus. Arrived very quickly too.

    Great selection and fair prices. Swift and easy delivery of my Promarkers. Only giving four stars because they most definitely don‘t write on glazed ceramics (i.e., store bought mugs) which was the main reason I bought them. I wish they had specified that on their website.

    I found the website easy to navigate and I was able to find the materials I required which I couldn’t find on other art websites.
