AXMINSTER TOOLS AND MACHINERY

Axminster Tools And Machinery feels like the IKEA of tool shops, minus the meatballs and weird furniture. The service is top-notch, and if you need tools, these guys have got you covered. Jamie Wilkins and others rave about how friendly and professional the staff are, but let’s be real, you’re not coming here for a fun day out. It’s practical, and if you’re a DIY enthusiast, you’ll appreciate the cleanliness and organization.

However, if you need customer service after the sale, you might be up a creek without a paddle. Mark Anderson’s experience with communication issues is a red flag in what’s otherwise a solid place. In short, it’s great for buying tools, but don’t expect heartwarming stories or thrill rides on your visit.
