Comet Reviews

I purchased an LCD TV from Comet Reading in mid December as a Christmas present for a friend. The present was opened yesterday and unfortunately it did not work properly. So I did the obvious thing and today took the TV back to Comet thinking it would be a simple matter of them swapping the faulty TV for a new one. No such luck. After ...  Read the complete review

Bought a number of items, having the kitchen installed so checked everything 11 days after delivery to find the splashback had a huge dent, but told it was over 7 days, "as per their terms and conditions" and would not replace Its not in their terms and condition, not on the receipt, not on their after sales doc, not ...  Read the complete review

Over the Christmas period our fridge freezer broke down. Against our better judgement, and only because we felt we really needed refrigeration with 2 babies in the house, we ventured out into the post-Christmas sales. We found the perfect model in Comet. I will say, it was a great price, at only £499 for an LG all-singing-all-dancing USA-style ...  Read the complete review

After reviewing Comet's desktop PC's on their site, I settled for the one I wanted and purchased it. I chose the 5-6 days free delivery (no qualms there). When I assembled my new PC, I checked the specs according to what was advertised on their site, and sure enough, I was "short-changed" in MB's on the hard drive. When I phoned ...  Read the complete review

When I got it home the image display quality was nothing like as good as I expected. I took it back the very same day and they wouldn't give a refund because I'd opened the box. ...  Read the complete review

I purchased a fridge freezer from our local comet just outside Nottingham a couple of years ago, mainly becuse they had an offer on giving you free sky tv installation if you spent over a certain amount. I have purchased smaller items from there in the past and never had any problem. This particular day the sales people descended like ...  Read the complete review

Well, my experience of Comet has been pretty positive, to date. Purchases over the last 12-18 months have included 2 laptops (a week apart), a fridge freezer, microwave, computer consumables, Playstation 2, various PS2 games and a set of hair straighteners. Their website is pretty clear, with decent search facility, good images and ...  Read the complete review

We bought an LCD television from Comet on the Purley Way, Croydon on Monday 17th to put in our kitchen. Because we don't have a connection to the outside aerial in the kitchen, we also bought an indoor aerial. We took the television and aerial straight home, set it all up and to our dismay the reception was awful, so bad that we simply couldn't ...  Read the complete review
