Lakeland

Lakeland Limited is an amazing shop. It sells kitchen and homewares many of which are innovative products that you can't buy elsewhere. To give you an idea of the level of innovation you can often spot things on Dragon's Den that have already been in the Lakeland catalogue and vice versa. They have a number of shops across the country, but not to the scale of, say, M&S, where there is one in every town you go to but they do have a very comprehensive online store or you can order by mail order. The shops couldn't possibly display everything in the catalogue anyway so a look online or in the catalogue is always worthwhile. In fact I continue to get each ...  Read the complete review

As a first time customer, I recently bought a handheld vac from Lakeland. I ordered it by phone, and was very impressed with their agent's friendly and helpful manner. The vac arrived soon after, and although it was a well- made product, it wasn't just what I wanted, so I phoned Lakeland to tell them. I was astonished when their agent (again very friendly and helpful) just asked me to pop it back into the box, and they would arrange collection asap. They would refund the cost, including the delivery charge, to my bank account. The vac was collected within days, and I think the refund reached my account even before they would have received the vac back. They also ...  Read the complete review

As some of you who regularly read my reviews you will know that I am slightly addicted to Lakeland. There is a store very close to where I work and I would say I visit at least once a week, even if I don't buy anything I love to look at their ever changing ranges and innovative gadgets for the home. What is it ? Lakeland is still a family run business, it is owned and managed by three bothers. The company originally started of in the 1960's with a husband and wife who wanted to make some extra money so they started selling plastic bags to farmers who wanted to freeze animal feed. It has obviously mod on from then and is now an award winning ...  Read the complete review

Lakeland has stores on high streets up and down the country. Its products are also easy to purchase online or through a mail order form through their catalogues which are available in-store or which can be delivered to you via post, on request. The catalogues themselves are split generally into kitchen and home with extra ones displaying Christmas good. They are well thought out and presented and describe the products in a clear, concise but fun way - part of the brand image is that they love their products and just want to be able to share them. There is a real variety in the products available from cleaning products to cooking utensils, decorative ...  Read the complete review

I adore Lakeland, ever since I moved out of my parents place and bought my own home I've become almost obsessed with them and their wonderful products for the home and garden. Lakeland was established in the early 60s by the Rayner family as Lakeland Plastics reflecting the type of products they specialised in. Tupperware and polythene based goods for the home especially freezer bags for the farming industry. The company grew from strength to strength and in the 90's changed their name to Lakeland Limited in reflection of the vast variety of goods they now sold and not just plastic based items. Their headquarters are in Winderemere in the Lake ...  Read the complete review
